WF: notice that n good malty journ-
ale of the Province in speaking of the
death' of the Ilon. Geo. Brown fly into
a torrent Of passeau when they mention
the name of his assailant, and apply
suci> epithets its murderer and a8esae siu
to htin, and speak most certainly of leis
being flanged, usually winding irp with
tee remark that hanging is too good
for lion.. There is no o•ecassiou for so
much display of feeling on the matter.
The Hon. Geo. Brown has been killed,
reed in a way the:( is most humiliating.
. IIe r: et an uudignifled death•. His
place in the ranks of Ce,nedian celobri-
ties it wilt be ineposaiole to fill. tint
in the eyes of the Canadian 113.W be i:(
only George Browr and the Crown
would not be narreuted in taking any
step tri rnnish lois assailant because he
ei,;::ed the death of one Canada's force
most statesman that it would not take to
punish him if he were guilty of taking
the,liio of the commonest Canadian.
As to the indiscriminate Iso of the
epithets "murderer,'' and "assassin,"
they are out of place as yet. The lean
has not been tried, and there is very
strong presumptive evidence that his
unfortunate victim ryas shot in the
tietlfiie that ensued when Bennett
,.drew the pistol. There may be evid-
ence of the most positive nattne to
prove that Bennett intended to shoot
Mr. I3h'own, het if there ie. the general
public is not aware of its existence,
and until they Lear the evidence they
ought to withhold their opinions. At
all events, the out cry in the press is
ealeulated to prejudice the .minds of
the people iu all parts of the. country
against the miserable prisoner, cud
under such ciecumstancea, a fair trial
and an impartial verdict would be fin.
poerlible. The death of the Mr. Brown
at the hands of any man,• however
blameworthy or blamelebs, is Enough
of iteelf to enflame the minds of the
people. But for the press of the coun-
try to clamor for the hanging of the
guilty person is beyond all decency.
Give Bennett a fair trial. If guilty,
of intentional murder, hang kiln, es he
and all others in the same . degree of
guilt, deserves: Let there be no par.
don, 1f convicted ou unimpeachable
testimony, but until he as convicted,
let the people refrain from passing
sentence upon hilar and executing him.
Vire feel sire that in their calm moments
those who have been the loudest in
their dec1an atione against Bennett
would not desire his death unless con-
vinced beyond doubt that it was mer-
eited. •
