cumstances which surround certain descriptions OF
society in this large metropolis, and the difficulty
of controlling the dIsreputabe portion of society
BY any species of legislation by any dlstlact
tion Of courts and juries. No doubt can exist of
the absolute historical truth OF the views presented
by Judge DAILY /; but it was questionable policy in
him, occupying the position which he does, to adj
nit such view of existing facts In his charge.
His best course, and the most popular one, would
have been to have assumed the EXTREMIST moral
ground that Judge or a magistrate could assume.
no matter how impracticatle or impossible, to re-
duce il to action In intelligent community.
The difficulty which attended Judge DAILY in Crap
ping with this abuse In the social system, was
felt by the jury In an equal degree, and hence the
disagreement OF that body, and the impossibility
Of their coming to decision at all.
The other legal matter Is the charge of Judge
Oakley, in the libel case of Mr. Beach, and the
verdict OF the jury. Judge Oakley has been de-
nounced for travelling out Of the strictly impartial
course which Judge on the bench sh6ald follow,
and OF becoming, In fact, more prosecutor than
an impartial distributor Of legal lore. The iurv
are also accused Of rendering the verdict contrary
to strict law, and coupling that verdict with condl-
lions which they had no power to do, and in which
they acted contrary to law. Some foundation may
exist for those views, for certainly 1t is principle
OF law that the verdicts Of jury shall have refer
ence only to the particular case before them. No
Jury has right to travel out Of the record and i'm
pose conditions or fine, or a punishment Of any
kind, beyond the facts Of the particular case SUD-
mitted to them. Under this view Of the matter,
probably the case will be carried up to the Court OF
Appeals and the whole matter be reviewed, as 1t
ought to be, so that mere popular prejudice may
no, regulate decisions. but that strict law should be
attended to by both the Judge on the bench and the
jury the box Judges and jurles are all amrnable
TO the community, and must abide by and follow
the rules OF strict law.
