_ ' oovsaNon LILLEY.
' The Norwalks. as well as other
Chilean in the state, learned with son-
row last evening of the death of Gov-
‘ crnorGeorge L. Lilley. although disv
‘ solution had been expected for some
. time previously. In his death it is
no exaggeratldn to say that the coun-
try lost an'hdhest and honorable man.
He was fearless and independent, and
mapping out what he believed to be
the right course. he pursued it to the
end, even though It was wearing his
life away. The struggle through
which he passed In the laat'trwo‘ years
without doubt hastened the end. His
thousands of friends are firmly con.
‘vinced that he had a clean heart, a
good purpose. and resolute courage to
attempt to overcome the wrongs of
public waste and corruption‘ which
had been for many years going on in
certian circles. His death is a loss
to the nation, the state, and to every
town.
I, The fine imposed yesterday for the
assault made upon a woman, after
fithe severe remarks of the judge, is
‘ one of the anomalies in Jurisprudence.
After stating emphatically that, the
case warranted the full penalty of the
law a more fine of fifty dollars Is a
travesty on Justice, and a mockery of
' the dignity of the law. Such a brutal
assault. to be condoned by so slight
' a punishment, is an encouragement
rather than a punishment for the most
. cowardly and reprehensible brutality.
