was one that never had excited any special degree
OF public interest. This proved TO be a mistake. A
panei Oh l00 jurors was exhausted anu only ten
found competent to serve. Examining them one
by one as they were called to the stand by the
Clerk, was tedious enough, although Mr.. Howe. who
conducted the examination, managed occasionally
to extort responses OF diverting character.
.'Mr. Bloomfield" Mr.. Howe asked one OF the
rejected ones, shave you any conscientious scruples
on bringing In verdict OF guilty when the penalty
Is deaths'
''Quite the contrary answered Mr.. Bloomfield
III should be rather Inclined, in consequence OF the
alarming increase OF murders. to mete out very
strict justice TO the prisoner"
'COuld you,n Mr.. Howe asked another, who, OF
course account Of the nature OF his response was
rejected, bring in verdict strictly In accordance
with the evidence ?"
81 am afraid" answered the party interrOgated
''that il would take strong evidence in these times
to induce me to bring in verdict Of not guilty."
81 don't believe in insanity pleas" stated an
other.
And thus the excuses ran on ill., as stated above

10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
thank you on behalf of large law-loving CON-
munity for your stand OF right and justice In the
Foster affair, and would ask small space In your
valuable sheet to give my peculiar views. In the
first place. would suggest that In every muir
der trial there be sworn two separate sets oiurors
to hear the testimony, and at the close OF the trial
let one Jury 60 out and try to come to verdict II
they cannot agree, then let jury No. go out and
try. one would In most all probability agree, and
n great amount or valuable time be
saved. In the second place, would
respectfully move that, II the Governor pardons
Foster, instead OF going through all the costly
trials and then having the Executive set the YER
diet aside, the case he at once brought be-
fore that tribunal for decision and let him pass
Judgment, whether 1t be hanging or Imprisonment
for one or two months or more. Aud lastly, Is
there not one poor devil In the 1ombs awaiting
tria. that mas neither great amount OF money
and religious friends-that can be hanged to start
the ball rolling as see no chance OF there being
anybody hung at present, that Is, that has been
triedY And now, Mr.. Phelps, try some poor devil
for murder, and get one hanged at last.
