RIGHT OF PRIVATE CONTRACT
Depends with Some Upon Who Are the

Depends with Some Upon Who Are the
Parties-Delay in the Courts.
Mr.. Judson closed his address by refer
ring to prospective legislation which
might be had on private contracts. He
said: ut is apparent TO even a superficial
observer that legislation of this general
character, in the abridgment of the right
of private contract, must tend greatly to
increase in the near future. Notwith-
standing the enormous advance in the
condition of the working classes in Eng
land during the last half century effected
through voluntary association in the ex-
ercise of individual freedom of contract.
the denial of free contract seems with
many agitatOrs to be the great panacea
for social ills, and oftentimes the first
manifestation of the strength OF volun-
tary labor association is in denying the
right of free contract on the part of Others"
a subject of Importance.
Alfred Russell, of Dartmouth, spoke on
the "Avoidable Causes of Delay and I'm
certainty in Our Courts" OF the jury
system he had this to say: Let US pass
to what may be deemed the second princi-
pal cause, and, perhaps. indeed, the chief
cause of of delay and uncertainty in our
court Sine jury system In CIVIL cases. In
its existing practical operation it would
seem as if the jury system in civil cases
were purposely contrived to produce de-
lay and uncertainty, particularly in con-
nection with the division of the sessions
of courts into terms.
Has Outgrown Its Usefulness.
Il am among those who believe that this
system has outgrown its usefulness. We
have no crown, no aristocracy, no estab
llshed church, no servile judiciary, no
press censorship no limit to the discus
sion of the acts of our rulers, no restric-
ton of public meetings for reform, no hin
derance to universal suffrage or universal
education; and it is time that we should
have no jury in civil cases. This institu-
tion grew up alongside of those other in
situations, which we have repudiated.
The English Bar Against 1t.
Il understand, indeed, that the English
bar is now quite generally against the
continuance of the institution in England
With the disappearance of the jury in
civil cases, nineteenth of the will cases,
and the accident cases, and the like,
would also disappear from our court CAL
ehdars. Some sources of professional in
come would be dried up, it is true. But

NOT GUILTY.

In the district court the trial of
Elmer Coddington on the charge Of
stealing flour from the ST. Clair mill
was completed Thursday afternoon
and was given to the jury at 40
O'Clock. After being out ten minutes
it brought in verdict of mot guilty..
While on the stand, Coddington adj
mitted having some of the stolen flour
in his possession, but explained it by
saying that he had received it from
Rice, who is now in prison for the Of
fence, in payment of debt. He said
that the morning of the theft he was
working in the field with Rice, when
the latter told him that the flour was
stolen and that the officers were after
them ;having no money to defend him
self, he ran away and went into the
Wisconsin pineries. He was on his way
back when he got job in St. Paul.
and it was there that he was arrested.
The other Indictment against Cod
dington was dismissed on motion of
the county attorney, owing to the be-
lief that it would not convict
