EVIDENCES OF PROSPERITY.

EVIDENCES OF PROSPERITY.
1t is a good evidence of business
prosperity when every able-bodied
man is employed, or can find employ
ment, if he desires it. In looking
through the different mechanical and
manufacturing establishments in this
city, they are found with their full
complement Of working men. 1t has
not infrequently transpired in past
years that these establishments have
been running with reduced forces of
workmen, because Of the dullness of
trade. 1t is encouraging to hear manu-
facturers say their supply Tor selling
does not equal the demand. 1t is no
Indication that business is dull, if able
bodied men are seen standing on the
corners of the street unemployed; it is
true they may not find just the kind OF
employment suited to their taste.
There are not enough agreeable en-
Payments to accommodate all some
must accept the less desirable.

TRIAL By JURY.

Among a number Of law reforms
which have been suggested for the
better securing of the ends of justice
is the adjustment of trial by jury.
Originally the trial by jury was in
tended to protect the common people
from the arbitrary acts Of their rulers,
not to consider questions of law be-
tween parties. 1t is reasonable to con-
clude that the court is better qualified
to decide matters Of difference where
legal points are involved than juries
are. The party having case for trial
who calls for the summoning of jury
is presumed by that act to distrust the
court, or at least expects to find greater
favor from a jury than from the strict
construction of law by the court. The
law rightly construed by the court is
expected to mete out exact legal jns-
tice ;juries are less guided by law, bu
inclined to their private notions Of
equity. The court is presumed to I'M
derstand the law; jury, as ordinarily
selected, is not expected to be familiar
with the law. There is no statute
which requires a juror should possess
have a common school education, or
even that he shall be able to read and
write. He may be ignorant of every
rule of action in the affairs of men,
and yet be declared competent juror
After evidence on the trial of cause
has been taken, however qualified the
court may be to render verdict In ac-
cordance with the law and the testi-
mony. the case is given over to the
jury No wonder there are often such
strange verdicts rendered without color
OF law. What can be the governing
motive of the party who calls for
jury, when the integrity and ability of
the court is unquestioned? Is it not
because of the hope that the jury may
be wrought upon by appeals to passion
or sympathy to tone down the rigorof
the law, or to turn aside the exact
course of legal justice? Be the reason
what it may, it cannot be the expecta-
ton of obtaining a verdict more in ac-
cordance with the strict letter of the
law. In the adjudication Of cases in
the highest and last court of resort,
juries are not wanted; they are there, |
deemed Of no account. In the Ian
guage of recent writer "The jury
system is falling into disrepute, first
because of the careless and criminal |
manner of making the selections; Sec
ond, because of the ease with which |
jurymen are corrupted; third, because
in criminal cases juries are generally |
relied upon to defeat the ends of JUS
tice."
Whatever diversity of opinions there
may be as to the expediency of dis
pensing with jury trial, there seems at |
least to be a demand for some modif-
cations of the system. The require
ment of unanimous agreement of
twelve men to find a verdict more
often defeats the ends of justice than
it secures the right. 1t is true the jury
system is a venerable tribunal of JUS
tice; it dates back to the reign of King
John of England. The people will
not set it aside without mature deliber- 1
alton. but its old and historic memory
does not shield it from modification.

is given by using Browns
IRON BITTERs. In the
Winter it strengthens and
warns the system; in the
Spring it enriches the blood
and conquers disease; in the
Summer it gives tone to the
nerves and digestive organs;
in the Fall it enables the
system to stand the shock
of sudden changes.
In no way can disease be
SO surely prevented as by
keeping the system in per-
feet condition. Browns
IRON BITTERs ensures per
feet health through the
changing seasons, it disarms
the danger from impure

LAYING THE CORNER STONE

LAYING THE CORNER STONE
The ceremony of laying the corner
stone of the new st. James Catholic
church in this city will take place on
Sunday next at o'clock p. M. The
exercises for the occasion are arranged
on large scale, and will be conducted
with the usages of the church. The
procession which will be formed and
march through the streets, prior to the
laying of the corner stone, will doubt
less be an imposing one. A number
of temperance and benevolent societies
from Chicago and Milwaukee are ex-
pected to be present and add interest
to the occasion. Archbishop Heiss,
of Milwaukee, will conduct the cere-
monies, and Rev. Father Fairbanks, of
Milwaukee, will preach the sermon of
the day.

AT a meeting of the exposition

Ar a meeting of the exposition
committe in New Orleans last week,
Mr.. Coleman, one Of the committee,
said: "He desired to make point of
the fact that the working classes
were doing more in proportion to
their means toward the success of the
fair and taking greater interest 10 it
than were the capitalists and those
who could we'll afford the snbsrrip
,iona. Mr.. Coleman thought that it
would eventually be demonstrated
that the largest number Of subscrip
tions had come from the lahoring
classes" Look at this testimony
and compare it with the reproach
that is too often poured upon "the
hard fisted sons Of toll" and with
some specimens Of what the compa.
MES are now msnifesting toward the
telegraph operatives.
