OUR LHRY SYSTEM.

The trial of the anarchists now in pro-
gress at Chicago once more brings prom
inentlY before the people Of the United
States the effectiveness of the present jury
system. In this, Ga in all other cases
where the crime has been 80 great as to
give it an undue notoriety, the principle
trouble met with is to find men capable of
Jury duty who have not informed them
selves through the public prints or other
wise Of the general facts in the case, and
who have not expressed themselves re-
garding the guilt or innocence of the al
legged criminals.
II is also true that majority of those
who admit that they have expressed an
opinion disapprove of the anarchist ideas
both in theory and in practice. 1t is also
true that person capable of being an an
archist or one who can sympathize with
the anarchists or other law. breakers IN their
violation Of the statutes, would not have
the least hesitation to commit perjury for
the purpose of assisting his fellow Grimm.
al. Yet the existing jury system not only
gives the preference to the latter class,
but puts premium on ignorance by &C
cepting the man who admits his incapac-
ity to perform the duties of an intelligent
juryman because he actually knows moth
ing of the everyday events of the place
where he resides. To this is attributable
the many failures of justice which occur
in capital cases and thus it is that meth
cd of procedure intended to secure equal
fuafipa Na1Ha a. uuhan Nha Sc
specially heinous, to assist the criminal In
escaping his deserts.
A change in the number and causes for
which the defense are allowed to chal-
lenge might be of advantage. For in
stance, because a man had read a neWs-
paper account of q crime and had ex-
pressed an opinion as to the guilt or in
nocence of the prisoner, 1t should not
necessarily follow that he was not'capable
of returning just verdict according to
the evidence and instructions he might
receive from the court. OF course if q
proposed juror declares that his opinion is
80 firmly fixed that no evidence could
change his ideas, he should be relieved of
the duty at once. But there are very few
cases Of this kind.
Probably our lawyers who have made
most Of their reputation and wealth in the
defense Of criminals, would seriously OBJ
ject to any modification of the Jury law as
it at present stands, for it is this very i'm
perfection OF which they chiefly rely to
gain their cause-especially when it is 9
notorious fact that their client is guilty
and deserving Of punishment.

THE negro laborers of Arkansas are
joining the Knights of Labor and adopting
their methods to obtain increased wages.
They have formed assemblies of farm
hands and demanded an increase of pay.
The explanation of the employers that the
low prices OF cotton would not justify an
increase did not satisfy them. Other men
were willing to work at the old rates, but
the strikers proceeded to arm themselves
and prevent them for taking the vacant
places. Bloodshed is imminent, and the

NEW YORK. July 1O.-Caps Benz Page,
an old and highly respected citizen of
Harlem, has disappeared, leaving ohli-
cations to the amount of $27, 900. A week
ago he went among his friends and Dor
rowed sums of money amounting from
800 to $500 on plea that he was about
TO take up mortgage on some property.
He obtained fully 800 in this way.
Page was trustee of the Belden estate
worth $500 900, and several smaller es-
tates. An Investigation was made into
his accounts and it was found
that he had appropriated about
SID 600 belonging 70 the estate. II was also
found that no tax had been paid since he
took charge of the estate AID that be had
pocketed large amount of the rent. and
that numerous repairs for which he had put
in heavy bills had never been made. Other
estates of which Page had the manage
ment have suffered, and IL will take some
time to tell exactly how much he has en-
bezzled. It is thought he has gone to
Australia.

IT Is always well to have historical
one possesses knowledge unknown to
the general public it is well to air the
fact. But Ia doing this some would-be
wise people overdo 1t, and in attempts to
show their own superior knowledge
merely exhibit their egotism and self
suflciency. The United States commits
sioner of agriculture at Washington, Mr.
Norman j. Colman, the other day under
took task Of this kind. and one which
men OF less courage have shrunk from
tackling. According to the New York
Herald, he informed the American Asso-
citation Of Nurserymen, Florists, ETC.. at
their annual meeting. that he knew all
about the forbidden fruit in the Garden of
Eden. He did not think much of the for
hidden fruit, and the inference from his
remarks must be that Eve on q certain
momentous occasion exhibited very poor
taste and feeble judgment. For said he I:
1.-THE trees of Eden bore no such fruits as
do ours. 1t was wild garden. Its pro-
ducts would be no temptation TO our eyes
to-day. The apple, If indeed 1t was an
apple, which was plucked by Eve
When mortal taste
Brought death into the world and all our woe
was not even q respectable crab apple, as
we now estimate fruits. The crab was in
fact great advance upon the apples OF
Eden" Then Mr.. Coleman tell foul OF
the Gardens of the Hesperides, the fruit
of Canaan, the grapes of Eschol. His
statements were very interesting and so
new, you know. Only one little doubt
interferes with the enjoyment of 30 pro-
found an erudition. That little doubt
suggests the question, Where did Mr..
Coleman derive his precise and specific in
formation about the kind of fruit that
grew in the Garden Of Eden and the rest
of the places named by HIM? And if, as
seems but too certain. there Is no source OF
knowledge on the subject open to him OF
anybody else, the further question arises,
Why did he talk such aFrant nonsense
with 30 absurdlY dogmatic an alrs!
