THE CRIME OF MURDER.
I
Whether or not it be true, as i.-;
clutmed by the optimistic, thai
drunkenness is being reduced in
Eolith Carolina, it is a lamentable j
fact that crime, and particularly j
the crime of murder, is on the in- |
crease to alarming extent.!,
sKvery year swells the number of
homicides in the State, and the
punishment of a murderer is as 1
rare as the crime is lrequent. The '
blood of hundreds of victims cry
out in vain lor justice and their
murderers walk the earth unino-!
^ i
jested. How long shall this thing!
be suffered? A man ??k?k out iu j
. . I;
:no morning quietly attending toj
j i.is busings and before nigi.i for |
eo'lie fancied affront falls betore!
the deadly plav of the ever ready j,
pistol.
Each year the legislature, realizing
that the sanguinary blot 011
>he fair name ol the State grows
t -larger, attempts to enact more
stringent laws against the carrying! (
of deadly weapons. But the re-j
suit is not encouraging. There!
are already laws enough against |(
cr.me. 1 he trouble t* that tliev ;
are tiot erloreed. The French!
huve a proverb to the effect that J
ihe absent are always wrong. iSo|
it is with the victim of a murder-'
ers rage. '-Dead men tell no j
tales,'' and morbid sentimentality j
and a too sympathetic jury do the;
jest. Between a skillful lawvci, j
an impressionable jury and exec-j
titive clemency the odds are about.
three to one thai the slayer ol hi.- j
fellow ir.an escapes the penalty ot;
his crime.
In an address before the Inde-j
pendent Club, of Buffalo, last!
week, Senator Tiiiman reviewed!
the history of the dispensary in f
Mouth Carolina. IIis speech was;
lull ol hid old-time vim and ener-J
uw ami lie made a verv good'
. 4
showing indeed lor his pet insli-j
tutinli. He allowed that 111 tlie J
whole State of South Carolina!
there were oalv 2S0 dispensaries.]
while in the city of IJniTalo. wilhj
its 330.000 population, there were]
*2'"),00i3 saloons, or one to evervj
I'.)5 people. This contrast is sink
iitii, bcl the effect would liavej
been considerably weakened had j
the Senator, who is good on sta-j
tlitics, remembered to include in j
a rough estimate the nnh.ber id j
' "speak easies" in Charleston and j
Columbia and a ^fe^* smaller j
tt'.vns ottko Slate. j
