A Woman Sentences Czolgosz

To the Editor of The Evening World:
     As an American woman who feels the loss of our beloved President deeply, I ask you to use your influence in having Czolgosz quickly punished, but not in the electric chair, as if he only committed an ordinary murder. Why not make an example of him, humble him to the dust? Hang him in a public square, before the gaze of the people, with face uncovered. When choked to death, let his corpse hang for twenty-four hours; then cut him down and burn his miserable remains in carbolic acid, so that not a speck of his vile dust will remain on American soil—on the soil that will hold the remains of our dearly lamented President McKinley. Murderers are generally after some time made pets of. For God’s sake, let justice be done quickly, and don’t let us have to read of the murderer of the grandest character that the world ever produced—how he slept, what he ate, how he looked and what he said.
