In all Canada Jast year, there were seven men from whom society deâ€" manded the extreme penalty of the ‘law. Seven others, sentenced to the gallows, had their sentences commuâ€" ed to life imprisonment. _ Nine _ of the 14 were foreignâ€"botn. Compared with other countries, we . make _ a good showing. In the year 1907, in Great Britain 226 persons were conâ€" victed of murder, _ or approximately one to every 175,000 of the populaâ€" tion. In the United States the averâ€" age number of convictions for the *ten years was 6,597, or one to every +12,300.
