The great loyal heart of the people believes the sentimentality, which would not punish with death the assassin and the perfid- ious traitor, to be sickly and dangerous. From all the four winds the popular breath is, "there must be ret- ribution. Treason must be made odious. " The nation must express by condign penalty its estimation of its own life.
