Just off hand we do not know whose business it is to regulate the matter of appeals from decisions of courts. We do not know, however, that some tegulation is needel for it has been worked for the past year or two to the limit and to the hurt of the state. There seems to be no limit to the number of times a criminal m?v t hwart justice by appeals and motion?, for new trials. It is- at times just going round in a circle, no end to it. Note the Bigham case, a crime too diabolical to even think of and yet by the use of money and with a lawyer ready and willing to do anything, the verdict, of the jury, the sentence of the court, the ruling of judges, have been made of no effect and now on the ground of a plea already judged to have no merit he is given a new trial. Fox, Gappins, Kirby have been executed for a crime all too horrible but not as bad as that Figham, while this living fiend time after time is able to outwit the law and cheat justice. Why? Because something isl wrong with our system of laws. Some change is needed and if our legislature is the body to regulate or mend things ?n the name of law and order get down to it, gentlemen, and do something before the people lose all respect for the law and are found taking the matter of punishment into their own hands. If the ?. fx*. - matter rest wun our supreme court, ; let the court do whit should be done in order to save our good name from becoming a reproach among the other states of the union.
