PACKING JURIES.

Tie morning paper which enjoys the dis
tfnc,ion Of being the only paper OF any
prominence in the city to uphold Judge
Muruhy's decision in the Chute case, de-
Clares that the fact must not be lost sight
Of that ITO pack a Grand jury is a very daa
ger0us thing" The bOodler apOIogist goes
ON 10 state that Judge Wallace did pack the
present Grand Jury through the instrument
tally If an elisor. This statement is made
In full knowledge that Section 226 of the
Code OF Civil Procedure provides as follows:
Whenever JURORS are not drawn or summoned
to attend any court OF record or session thereof,
OF q sufficient number OF jurors tail 10 appear,
sueh court may order a sufficient number 10 be
forthwith Or Wn aud summoned 10 attend the
court, OF II may by an order entered on Its mln-
~uTe- drsCt The Sheriff ettsOT chosen by the
torrt forthwith TO summon so many good aud
lawful men Of tie county or CITY and county TO
serve as jurors as may be requl ed, and in either
case such jurors must be summoned IN the man
ner provided IN The preceding section.
Il appears, therefore, that the law author
lies a Superior Judge to do what Judge
Wallace did when he appointed an ellison.
We are bound to assume that the law has
good purpose. If the admission be made
that the good law may be perverted by
bad Judge, it does not follow that an up
right Judge may net avail himself of it,
lest a corrupt Judge should resort
10 the same method. In appointing
an elisor Judge Wallace did not enact the
law, and consequently in adopting any
method The law provides it cannot be said
that he packed jury. There is in the
general mind 10 doubt whatever of the sub
stautjal truth of assertions often made in
the past that grand iuries have been packed.
j few names have been selected by various
devices which prevented finding indictments
As testimony warranted. One corrupt third
Of a grand jury will neutralize the efforts of
an honest two-thirds 1t is evident that the
boodlers' organ is not so much concerned as
TO what may be done by corrupt Judge
through the appointment of an elisor as to
what may be done by the present Grand
Jury. Its voice has never been raised in
such earnest protest against the sin of pack
iGg iuries as now. The 6isinterestedness of
this protest would be the mure readily ad-
United if the Grand Jury had not shown a
disposition TO inquire into the details of the
late Senatorial election, including the cast
ing of the vote Of the San Francisco delega-
ton to the Legislature for the proprietor of
the Chronicle. 1t is good deal to ask of
any man to approve Of law by which he is
punished OF even placed in jeopardy The
law is so considerable of tile weaknesses of
human nature that it does not require a wit
ness TO criminate himself. On the same
principle the law does not require public
journal to assist in the processes by which
Justice is administered when a great per-
sOnal interest is involved.

THE HOUSE OF LORDS.

As the time draws near for the renewal of
the conflict between the people of England
as represented in Parliament and the hered
itary peers who sit in the House of Lords
Mr.. Gladstone evidently shrinks from the
fray. He is an old man, and battle is less
alluring to him than it once was. Bet IN
less all signs fail in the event of Liberal
victory his hand will be forced.
The House of Lords is such an anomaly
in the British political system that it is
wonder il has survived so long 1t repre-
senis not men, but land. Members vote by
proxy, and a majority of them boast that
they have not changed their opinions for
sixty years. In 1881, when the Reform Bill
was assured Of passage through the Com
mons, majority Of the Lords refused to ae-
cept it, whereupon Earl Gray insisted upon
the creation Of sufficient number OF peers
to convert his minority into majority, and
the bill thus became a law. Since then
whenever on a question Of real Importance
differences have arisen between the Lords
and the Commons the Prime Minister has
notified the former that if they did not re-
cede from their position the same course
would be followed. The hint has generally
proved sufficient. Thus in 1916, on the Corn
Law AhSoAlOus III AoOAf VI VIC buboAtpu VA
the paper duties, and in 1883, on the Fran
chise Extension question, and on other oc-
casions, sufficient number of peers who
were opposed to the Government absented
themselves when the vote was taken so that
the bill could pass. Whether they will pur-
sue the same prudent course when the
Home Rule Bill passes the Commons Mr..
Gladstone processes to be unable to foresee.
Englishmen do not seem to remember
that the House Of Lords was once abolished
by vote Of the House of Commons. 1t was
in 1919, and the UPPER House stayed abol-
ished till 1860. eleven years. 1t was not OBJ
served at the time that the public interests
suffered by its abolition. On the contrary,
there never was a time when England was
more prosperous at home or more respected
abroad than during the period when there
was no House Of Lords.

THE. POPULAR DEMAND.

The Chronicle says that decent people de-
mand Grand Jury that can find an indict-
.ment that will stick. The people want
more than this. They want Grand Jury
that viii find an indictment against any and
every person against whom evidence is pre-
scented sufficient TO warrant an Indictment.
We have had grand 5uries without number,
which could find Indictments that would
stick. but such jUrles only indicted footpads
and other common criminals. They did not
reach after the political boodler. What the
Chronicle apparently wants is Grand Jury
that will not be too inquisitive concerning
Senatorial contests.

A North Clark-street plumber-One of the
kind with real business talent-hlred new
man the other day. and soon had occasion
to send him out on job. A water pipe in
Lake Shore drive mansion had burst. The
new man Immediately got his tools together
and started out, but the enterprsing pro-
prietor caught him at it.
Where are you goingp" he almost
screamed.
"Going up to do that job. It's easy. I'll
be back soon."

man alive, were you brought up in Cairo
Have you been up to look over the iob?"
Why no; L"

look here. You have no pride in your pro-
fession at all, and you'd ruin the dignity of

The plumber mopped the Precipitation
from his face, and as soon as lie had suf-
fciently Gained himself he added:
Now, Goldberg is a good customer OF
mine, and | don't want TO spoil him after
I've got him so well educated. Go up and
