MY Neighbor's Boy.

no honest jury in the land will DO
anything with ne for it.
The boy is ten years old. His
name Is Horace Walpole Gladstone
Smith, but they call him "Teddy."
He has taken to getting up at tive

Ten minutes after Teddy is up he

there is, however. no reason to sup
pose that the danger turks in the

i.sh Medical Journal, the examination
of the dirt under >eventy-eigbt iugeI

STAINS, minister of the interior, was
left out in the new deal and he will
leave no means unturned to make it
uncomfortable for the new ministry.
He has a strong following, and in the
elections and in the creation OF public
sentiment his utmost endeavors will
be used to compel the resignation of
the cabinet which rejected him from
it's membership.

1t cares nothing about his policies.

and if he tries To make it wait longer,
he will find that there are satlsfac-

his ideas on any subject whatever"
If the Republic can screw the demo-

on the republican party. 1t is for
that attack that the republicans in

The controversy over the Blaine

Der of the family to unfriendly criti-

IT WAS the same democratic con-

Mills for the senate. The Gazette
throws up it's hat enthusiastically for
the mayoralty endorsement, and
kicks like a bucking broncho at the
senatorial endorsement declaring
that such an endorsement does not
count. The Gazette is not consistent
in its course, and it is driven into this
inconsistency by it's opposition to

THE leading Democratic Journal in
Montana Is no admirer of David B.
Hill, and in q recent editorial it airs
it's opinions of the willy New Yorker
as follows:
SIT is idle to pretend that Mr.. Hill
Is so completely the idol of New York
democracy as to merit In the mouth
OF February the pledge of solid sup.
port in q national convention to be
held in June. His methods may pre-
vail, bat We hope not; he may capture
the nomination, but we do not believe
that he can. On the contrary, we be-
lieve that at the hour when the spec
tacular proceedings at Albany
reached the climax, Mr.. Hill, of New
York, was crossing the zenith"
If this Is a fair representation of the
democratic sentiment of Montana,
that state will not be found in the
Hill column at Chicago.

rs,AI az JuRY a FAILURE.

TRIAL BY JURY A FAILURE.
THERE is o growing sentiment IN
favor vf the abolition of the jury sys
tenn and the substitution of a hench
of justices. Certain it is that IL would
be a lighter burden on the taxpayers,
while the miscarriage of justice under
the new system could not well be
greater than it is at present. Some
| change IL demanded in the interest
of the public morals, as under the ex'
listing order of criminal procedure the
law has very little terror for the evil
doer. There is an almost perfect i'm
munity from punishment for crime
enjoyed by the criminal classes of the
country, nineteen out of every twenty
indicted for crime going unconvicted.
SO long as this is SO there will be no
improvement in the criminal classes,
for this immunity from punish.
ment acts as q stimulant to the
preparation of offences against the
law. There is a strange perversity
in the human mind that leads
1t to resist restraint, and where the
government is by fear, as 1t is in the
Ease of the lawbresking classes, that
government must make itself felt and
respected o. it will have NJ deterrent
effect. The certainty of punishment
for infractions of law Is the most po-
tent restraint, and when conviction
and punishment follow the commits
sion of crime with unvarying sequence
it will be largely prevented. AS it
now is the wives, daughters, sisters,
parents and little children of cri.ni-
nails on trial are made to play an i'm
portant part in the machinery of their
acquitsl, by being used in the hands
of expert counsel to work upon the
sympathies of the jury to secure
q favorable verdict. With q
bench of judges this emotional
exhibition would fail Of its eff.
feet, and one important agency in the
miscarriage of justice be cut off Then
q bench of judges would be at least
intelligent, and the premium now put
upon ignorance as IN indispensable
requisite in q juryman's qualifications
would no longer be paid at the *
pense of the public service. Viewed
In any light that can be thrown upon
the question it seems that the best
results, everyway considered, will be
reached by discarding the present
jury system and substituting there
for the trial of all criminal cases by o
bench of judges. It will be more
economical; 1t will be more certain in
securing the conviction of offenders;
it will relieve courts of justice from
the dominion of ignorance, the undue
influence of personal feeling and the
skillfully arranged drama of inter.
ested counsel for the creation Of sym
thy; it will give justice q chance as
we'll as crime, and demonstrate to the
law breaker that he cannot escape the
consequences of his disobedience by
any appeal to ignorance, prejudice or
sympathy.
