The month of December is a
great month for settlements. Every.
body likes 10 start with the New
year with his business IN good shape.
If he owes anything ho wants to
know how much 1t is and if possible
he pays it. If any one is indebted
to HIM he calls on him and requests
u settlement. A little debt is as
much bother as a big one; a man
will worry himselften times as much
over ten little debts as he will over
a big debt. If he he cannot pay ALL
he will act wisely by paying off tho
little debts and be able to say at the
end of the year, 81 don't owe but
one debt IN the world" A man
who owes twenty or thirty debts OF
one TO two dollars each will have
the character of "dead beat" and
will labor under great disadvantages
en- the transaction Of his business.
Whereas If he owes hut one debt,
though it be several hundred dol.
lars, he maintains his good reputa.
tion and credit. Pay up your little
debts and then do your level best
on the big ones before the beginning
OF the new year. The custom Of
squaring up matters at the close of
each year IS q great thing and saves
many man from being enguIfed in
a labyrinth OF debt.

Verdict Of .Juries.

The article, "Strahge Omission, - especially
the severe comments from the Lawrence Journal
and the Champions remarks about tstupid and
prepOsterOus verdcts, ''struck one Ofo earnest
temperance friends in y sensitive place. About
six years ago an.Old negro wood-chopper III this
city was4indueel, by the usual methods, tObet
five dollars on the knife-trick. Just as the trick
was being developed, the police pouuce. on the
old darkey. The real gamblers seized the five
dollerbill and escaped. The darkey. in slang
phrase. ''gave himself away" and was incar-
ceratcd in the county Jail for SIX weeks to await
trial by the District Court for gambling. Our
friend was on the jury, and the evidence was so
clear against the unfortunate aafkey, and the in
strlctions of Judge Hubbard SO explicit, that
there seemed to Ire no chance but to bring in
verdict of guilty. The jury retired, and, as us
ual, it was proposed to take an informal ballot.
One inpElsive Juror said it was hardly necessary
to do so, ana ne would move that the jury bring
in a verdict of not guilty. Eleven of the ''good
men and true'' voted aye. but our friend said
no; that the man was clearly guilty. Whereupon
up spoke hot blooded southern gentleman:
N'You are a HI of an abOlitionist. This poor
miserable niger has laid in sinking Jail for six
weeks, because he was weak minded enough TO
HllOw them gamblers to swindle him; along
comes city police and let the real guilty ones
escape, and stick this poor friendless wretch in
to Jail, to make capital for themselves as stern
enforeers ofthe law; and you propose to help
that sort of thing by hanging this jury at the ex
pense of this county, and the sis& ofeais life and
ahe.slmost certain damnation of his soul, by the
decentralization he is brought in contact WITH
Our friend swallowed all his scruples at one
effort and the jury went into court like men and
said ''NOt guilty.
Now, gentlemen, 80 who try 70 live according
to the principles offhe ''1evel and the Square,
ye who teach men to Glove mercy, do justice and
walk humbly before God,' say We. good men
and true, did this man perjure himself, or in any
way lower the dignity of Christian life by
smothering his scruples and shielding one who
had violated the law?
THAT jnres bring in strange verlicts is not TO
ne wondered at, for the system that requires alb
s0iute unanimity among twelve men of widely
different temperaments and methods of thought
must result in compromises between law and
equity, conscience and custom, right and wrong,
and the sooner people get to work and make our
jury system conform in some degree to the prln-
ciples of majority government the better it viii
he for the average jurors conscience. II Will be
the shortest way to get rid of tho cry of 'perur-
ed jurors. ''-Atchison Champion.

Whatever else may be said of Roscoe COnk-

personal integrity during his long political CT
reer remained without stain. Ifprde, akin to
arrogance, has been characteristic of his ma

lnapy as the great mistake of his resignation a
