THE BLAIR VERDICT.

The trial OF Joseph A. Blair for the
murder ofJo ohm Armstrong. his coachman,
at Montclair. last June, which has occu-
pied the attention of the Essex County
Court, at Newark, N. j., for the last sew
enteen days, was brought to close on
Wednesday, 1t ended in verdict of
acquittal, and the complete liberation of
the accused and his exoneration from all
blame In the eyes Of the law. The N. Y.
Herald. In an editorial upon this case,
follows:
The jury In the Blair case has finally
declared tho prisoner not guilty. Doubt
less this verdict was in fact obtained in
defiance OF the rule of unanimity. All the
twelve men did not believe the accused
guiltless, amy more than all the twelve
believed him guilty. But majority
were from the first, perhaps, in favor of
acquitted and few of another mind.
III the jury had been discharged at an ear
lier day they would have remained OF
their respective opinions. there would
have been failure to agree and anaiscar-
riage OF justice. But they held together
until the minority surrendered-worno out
with fatigue and anxious to get away.
Consequently this verdict is the verdict
Of a majority; only the m'nority.to forma-
ly make 1t unanimous" just as they do
In the convention. How large a proper
tlon of verdicts is reached in that way?
Perhaps there Is more or less of this
moral pressure on a minority In the
greater number OF the cases that
are given to a jury. We do not hold
the vcrdicts any less valid for this
reason. Only we would prefer that
1t should be the principle of the law
that majority should decide rather than
that this fact should be brought about in
defeat OF the law. Itcomes to the same
thing with regard TO justice il a man is
acquitted because eight or nine favor that
and the rest assem- In order to get away as
IL the law authorized the nine to acquit
and disregard three. But when the three
are obstinate or cantankerous 1t is not the
same. and the law should remove the pos
sibility OF the evil they can do. We
have. by thu practical coercion of the jul
ries that Is permitted, some of the advan-
tages Of tho majority rule; but one ugly
man may deprive us of that advantage III
any given case. The verdict in this case,
rs rendered. determines the law of the re-
lations OF householders and servants in
manner of which servants dispose to give
way to a violent temper Will Go well to
tuka notice
