But ali causes have results, and
resulting effects. To counteract
the possible effect OF such YER
dict was uppermost AT the time.
This too, in a direct line OF thought
concerning the jury system. This
system its self is OH trial. Some
of the most advanced thought Of
the age has assailed its efficiency.
AS we said yesterday. we say to-
day, that it will be time TO pull
down when we have something
better to put in place Of the razed
edifce, and that the only reason
for the present continuance Of the
jury system is that while its inef-
ficicncy is beginning TO be con-
ceded, its successor has not been
found. Change does not imply
progress, and the jury system ex-
lists because of wise conservatism
regarding the subversion Of exist.
ing forms.
Great and sudden innovations
may be neither necessary nor ex-
pedient. But when people look
at this thing in its true light re-
form will ensue. Lawyers attached
to the jury system will raise OBJ
jections but will readily fall into
the newly prescribed methods Of
procedure. Legislatures will
bear in mind that law is to be en-
acted for the benefit of the people
at large, and not for the sole ac-
commodation of a single profes-
sion. The trial of civil actions
without jury is already preferred
IN lew states. In these cases
matters of the greatest moment
are involved with result of less
complaint than where jury trial
obtains. In some states nearly
all civil cases except those
sounding in tort, that is,
brought for wrongful acts, where
the amount of damages to be re-
covered must be fixed upon, juries
are nearly always waived, and the
cause is decided by the Judge
alone, or is sent to good lawyer
''to hear, try and determine" as a
referee. In the enterprising ter

an anomaly" some OF our readers
may exclaim. Why? Let the court
be composed Of three Judges. Pay
them sufficient TO place tlem above
suspicion OF completely egardine
results. This system would lessen
the grounds Of appeal, fewer cases
would be reversed, business would
be disposed Of more rapidly, ex-
penses would be less and justice
expedited. At thc original trial
witnesses could be examined in.
far less time than 1T present coan-
sci would not have 20 be SO fre-
quently heard on the question Of
the admission or the exclusion Of
impertincat and irrelevant tas.i-
mony which might affect a igry
but could not affect a court. The
judges would have their reputation
at stake. No Judge likes 10 have
his decisions reversed bv an appel
late court of higher Jurisdiction.
They frequently prefer 10 have
juries try the cases in order that
thev themselves NAV be relieved
Of q large portion Of responsibility.
They are not readily affected bv
eloquence or appeals to sympathy
