Abuse Of the Jury system.

There IL one important reform which
the friends Of Justice, COOL government
and economy should press before the
legislature adiourns, and II the time
for Its adoption by the present lcgisla-
ture, before adjournment, Is not sum
cient, the subject will have been
brought prominently before the pubic
and will be placed In u position to re-
ceive the proper consideration and dis
custom
This needed reform Is IN our jury
system which has fallen into abuse,
not, for the promotion of, bit for the
defeat Of justice. The jurors who are
selected from the ranks of our citizens.
tax payers and most orde' loving
justice lovi' g portion of the commun-
ity, are the most competent to try all
cases that pass through our circuit
court They are much better rs jur-
ors, than the bummers WHO loaf round
the court room, waiting to be picked
up as tall es to compose ajury befor
whom case is to be tried, which will
not b, ar the light of justice to be turn
ed on
This ahus Is of slow growth and is
an inyen ion of that class of lawyers
whose chief pra tic" is to clear from
the tolls of he law all SORTS of crimi
nails.
The jury men which have been Sc
lected and summoned to make up the
machinery of justice are challenge |,
challenged till there are not enough
left to try the case, and then the sheriff
is sent out post haste to g'ther up in
the streets who ever he CHANGED to
meet These professional jury bummers
are sure to he met first and into the
jury box they go,
The lawyer has no objection to make
to them He knows his men. They
will do what do wants them to do, and
many a rascal escapes in this way. The
lnen W are summo ed OH the juries
are as competent to serve in every case
that comes before the Court, as the
judges ar 20 presid at the trials. and
it should not be allo wable to challenge
any juror for q less weighty cause of die
qualification than such as is to dis1ual
ify the judge from presiding at a trial.
TIL would prevent the wholesale
challenging in important criminals
cases without cause. The abuse has
gone SO far that every intelligent, hon
orable man is almos disqualified from
serving OH jury where he Grim nal
is very bad charac'eris ic: but a
blockhead aid ignOramus is selected to |
occupy the place of an intelligent,
conscientious NAN.
This vicious practice is a source of
much expense 10 the county. The |
hummer tallies, rect i've full wages for !
a days employment, when they sit on
a jury and the sheriff his fees for sum-
mons. while tn pay of the jury men Of
the regular panel goes on. The friends
of justice and economy should get a
bill before the legislature to reform this
monstrous abuse, and stop this leak in
the treasury The Onorable and in.
telligent citizens who are summoned |
as jurors are fully co" p tent to decide
Justly every case that comes before the |
court, far better than the bummers
who take their pla e.
