Excerpt from To Abolish Capital Punishment: A Plea to the Citizens of Every Country Last night at Isis Theater, which was filled to its capacity, the whole audience save six responded to Katherine Tingley's appeal for a standing vote in support of resolutions for the abolishment of capital punishment. In a stirring and eloquent appeal Katherine Tingley spoke right to the hearts of her audience and by the force of her arguments won them over to complete sympathy with her. The meeting was opened by the singing of songs, exquisitely rendered by the Raja-Yoga international chorus of some fifty voices, and the reading of appropriate quotations. Following are extracts from Katherine Tingley's address: "While we are in this atmosphere of music, of brotherly love, of compassion for all that lives, we are obliged to admit, if we think at all, that human society is morally bankrupt. The sooner thinking people of the present generation admit this the sooner will they reach a point of discernment whereby they can see things as they are and apply the remedy. Society Morally Bankrupt "How can you read your newspapers daily, as you do, and feel satisfied that all is well? How can the so-called Christians of the present age go to their prayers and to their homes satisfied? How can they do it? I ask this in love, with all due consideration for their beliefs: but I say, how can they do it? Is it not true, if we think well, that we have missed the real meaning of the teachings of Christ and of the sages of old? If we had them in their simplicity and clearness and force of spiritual life, we should not have to admit that society morally is bankrupt, and that the conditions of the world point to a degeneracy in human nature that one scarcely dares to think about. "So when we take up the subject of capital punishment, before we look at it with unfriendly eyes, we must consider why it is that with all the so-called education, culture and the prosperity of the twentieth century, there is this great gap between ourselves and the unfortunates. Can you recall anything that Christ ever taught, or any of the Great Teachers, that could sustain you, or the people at large, in taking a position that because a man sins he is to be condemned? That because he has sinned he is to be punished through the laws of man? I find nothing in the teaching of Christ to support any such position.

Excerpt from Reports and Addresses of James H. Titus, Upon the Subject of Capital Punishment: Published by the New-York State Society for the Abolition of Capital Punishment About a year since this society printed, and caused to be extensively circulated, the able address presented by the Rev. W. S. Balch, at its annual Meeting. In that address two questions, were propounded, relative to the promotion of the object of the association, viz: What is to be done? And How are we to work to the best advantage? The answers made were as pertinent in their character as the interro gations were judicious in their purport. We think we cannot do better service to our cause than to repeat in substance those replies. First. - Let strenuous efforts be made by each member and friend of the society, to support some newspaper or periodical journal which shall be the organ of the association and the expositor of its principles. Such an arrangement would afford the most convenient and efficient, medium through which to circulate the information and arguments tie: sired to be put forth; and it would be a powerful auxiliary to keep'an organization, to combine the efforts and strengthen the bonds of friends and to afford the means for cheap correspondence with individuals and societies.
