Since the chances are becoming
favorable to the recovery of the
President, the penalty that can be
pronounced the assassin is
being discussed. A clipping from
the Richmond Times published
elsewhere, that the maximum
punishment for the crime is ten
years imprisonment. This is the
punishment for assault in the first
degree or with intent to
kill. far as people go the law
is no respecter of persons, but a
crime like this at Buffalo ought to
be considered an offense against
the government and the penalty
ought to be death. If there are
no laws make the punishment of
such cases meet the of
justice, then such laws should be
enacted without delay. An at-
tempt lo kill the President, or to
kill the Governor of Suite should
be regarded as a higher crime
if against a person not high
and should
be made to fit the crime.
