\u201cI certainly do not,\u2019 said Mr'.Ellis, \u201cand if vou knew any thing about the two forms of capitf punishment yoü would not think s< either.Why, the man dies as h is being strapped to the electrif chair.It takes too long.Hangin is the most humane form of capita\u2019 punishment.Why, it only took fort seconds for Smith, the New Wes: minster, to die, after he mounted th scaffold.\u201d \u201cDon't you think capital punish ment should be abolished,\u201d said th newspaper man.\u201cMost assured! not,\u201d was the quick reply.In Car ada we should go further and adopi the laws of
