man who reads or shows a disposition
10 obey the laws himself and see that
they are strictly enforced against
those who break them, stands about
one chance in a dozen to be taken

does not wish such men, and with its
twenty challenges and the nature Of
the questions asked, can, in almost
every instance, with the aid of the
asiute lawyer, pick its men upon
whom it can rely either for a hung
