socialism and anarchy, and the sentl-

leader who left the Northern at the be-
ginning of the strike voices the opinion
of majority of the engineers.
"Public opinion says that we are the
most conservative labor organization In
the country" said he. land for once L

were very few of us who advocated the
destruction of property, and now that

LEGAL LOGICIANS.
Views Expressed the Majority Of
Jurors Bill.


Opinions differ among lawyers as to
the merits of the bill now before the
legislature regarding a majority of jur-
ors being allowed to decide a case.
Representative Stevens presented the
bill and is it's champion in the house.
Several lawyers who were conversed
with yesterday stated as follows:
Charles B. Marvin would not favor
such a law. In cases of diagreeing
juries the weaker minds generally go
with the majority, and it is often the
superior intellectS who are in the mi
nority. Such laws would have tend
ency in the wrong direction.
E. S. Gorman-In my opinion the
jury system should be left as it is.
W. G. Goforth-I do not think it
would be q ep in the right direction.
Ii the verdict of twelve men is worth
anything at all it should be unanimous.
1t has been the custom since time inn
memorial. Juries are sworn to de-
eide question in accordance with the
testimony put before them. and it
would hardly seem just to place the
power in the hands of nine men to de-
eide question irrespective OF the other
three, whose opinions as to the weight
of the testimony would he entitled to as
much respect.
Ambrose .Tighe-I consider the sys-
tenn of unanimous Yerdlcts relic OF
medieval times, but still | have no de-
cided opinion on the remedy. think,
however, that the proposed law would
be move in the right direction.
j. F. Fitzpatrick am in favor of
such law.
A. V. Teeple-I think such a law
should be passed regarding criminal
cases, and also in civil actions. l am in
favor of even three-fourths majority.
G. Tyson Butcher am opposed to
the bill for the reason that the present
jury system is the result OF a long-es-
tab.ished custom in majority OF the
states. The proposed change would
result in the enforcement Of many I'M
just claims.
o. E. Holman-It is rather an innova-
ton upon ali old established custom. but
still it is very aggravating at times to
have trial overthrow by one man. L
am in favor OF adhering to the old syS-

KILLED HIS BROTHER.
Fatal Results From Handling a
RaVniuRr

William and Herman Boesel, the men
who accidentally shot their brother
Carl on Front street Thursday after
noon while carelessIy handling a loaded
revolver, were arraigned in the mnnici-
pal court yesterday morning, charged
with an assault with dangerous
weapon. The case against William,
in whose hand the revolver was
discharged, was continued until to-day,
and Herman was discharged. Carl, the
wounded brother, died last night at St.
Joseph's hospital, and the body was re-
moved to the city morgue, pending an
investigation by the coroner. The
shooting was accidental. and if any
case whatever can be had against the
imprisoned man, it will be of criminal
negligence. The deceased came to ST..
Paul short time ago from Germany to
Join his brothers, and was the youngest
of the three, being but twenty years of
age.

Seated in comfortably upholstered
chair in a cosy Office in the German
American Bank building, compactly
built, energetic business man is the
marked characteristic of E. S. Norton.
Plats of real estate and maps of the
various counties of the state are access
ible 70 him on every side, and it is pretty
hard TO put question on real estate
that he cannot answer. Although he
has been in this line of business for only
eight years, he has mastered every de-
tail and has figures at his finger ends
concerning the value of nearly all the
business property in st. Paul, which he
makes his speciality.
Fifteen years ago Mr.. Norton was a
resident of New York city and actively
engaged in the Saddlery and leather
business. He became afflicted with the
Western fever, however, and leaving
located in this city. For about eight
years he conducted the wholesale
leather business successfully on Robert
street, between Third and Fourth
streets, and only relinquished it
when good offer was made him by P.
r. l.. Hardenbtrgh, who is now at
the head of that branch of trade in this
section of the country. Quick to note
benefits that must accrue from real eS-
tate investments. about eight years ago
Mr.. Norton embarked in what he is
pleased to term confidential transac-
lions with Syndicates DESTROYS of max
ing big deals in realty. Principally
through his efforts the land was Sc
cured upon which the Ryan hotel was
erected, and this stands out as a mOnu-
ment to the shrewd New Yorker, who
has made it his motto ito be always on
time" When he is engas ed in CONVEX
satien with some prospective purchaser
in his private Office, Mr.. Norton is very
apt to be holding his watch i'll his left
hand and casting furtive glances now
and then to assure himself that his Wis
itor is not overstaying his time. When
the climax is reached and the negotia-
tions are perfected, save possibly the
signatures of the contracting parties, it
is not unusual for Mr.. Norton to start
up abruptly with the exclamation,
pardon me, old fellow, but | must
catch the train to Lake Phalen;" and he
WhiSks out of the door with the air of a
man who must be on time.
Mr.. Norton is about thirty-eight years
of age; and his round, well-balanced
head sits upon pair of square shout
ders which are indicative of the charac
ter of the man. A closely trimmed
dark brown moustache partly hides 6
firm mouth,and square-set jaws betoker
unlimited perseverance and business
tact imbued with tireess energy. 1t is
with such men that the growing North
west is being peopled, and the results OF
their energy are shown daily in the prog
ress of the cities with whose interest:
they are so closely identified.
