in town today.
T. V. Nidey cuinmuted his des
ert claim yesterday, Albert Rey i
nolds and Win. Keating witness j
into
Harry Ward, ex-county treas- 1
urerof Baca county, now of Daw- 1
ney, Idaho, caure down last,
week to be at the betside of his j
brother Tom, who is very low
with pneumonia.
Justice Jones and W. s. Math
ias of stonington were Herald
callers Tuesday. As several
justice cases in stonington are
brewing, both these gentlemen
are enthusiastic for that second
court house—for stonington, and
declare they are going to give
Two Buttons the run of their
lives for that second base.
THE MORAL
OF THE CASE
It isn’t for the Herald to crit
icise the findings of the jury in
the ltiner murder trial. We be
lieve the twelve men on the jury
to have been sincere and honest
in the conclusion reached.
The dillerence of opiniun of
mankind is the | mint of view tak
en; and in the conclusions thus
reached ordinarily individuals
are sincere, though their views
•nay -»e opposite.
Aside however from the legal
pha c **s 01 a killing case, where
!,w. men threaten each other and
arm tor ‘*ach other, there is a
moral ide that the public is
forced to take cognizance of and
giv»* consideration to.
The particular moral to the
Miner and similar cases is this:
That if a man may kill another
who has mad*, threats and goes
armed —and go Scott free, all
any two men need do, in self just
ification, is to threaten each oth
er and go armed, and either plug
the other at sight, and ride on
about his business.
There was a time when, if
either of two men wanted to kill
the other, all he had to do was to
provoke him to and kill him in a
duel—and for many centuries
the public, justifed the killing.
The moral justification of sucli
killiners, however, was finally tak
en into consideration by the pub
lic, with the result that at pres
ent to so kill your fellow man is
to be guilty of murder, the same
as if you had met him on the
highway aud shot him down.
We do not believe that in this
country and in this age it is uec
essary for any man to go armed
to protect himself and find, often
that when for such purpose
they carry a gun ir their pockets
they also carry a chip on their
shoulders.
We are not considering the Mi
ner case from its legal aspects -
that is for the court and the ju
ry. It’s the moral phases of
sucli killings that here concern 1
us, ami that concerns the general,
public as a purely abstract prop-1
osition. I
Th • moral problem reduces it-1
10 this: Should either of
two i en be punished who threat*!
ei uh other and aim for each
o’: and ill** one gets his op*
p. oity to plug the othei —or
m i such threats and such
c :ea passport to freedom?
