Il Thin ble-Ricging Game,


The Democrats in Congress are resort
Ing 10 thinble-rissing to make the
country believe they are savingthc pub
lie money in rich golden chunks. They
want it understood that they are chop
ping right and left and will leave u
record that shall be a monument to the
Democratic idea OF economyi in expendi-
lures.
But the monument will not be COM
plete this year. There won't be time
to finish it before tho November cleo
ton. Thei efore the Democratic econo-
mixers are eager to work well into tho
public mind theirprofcssion OF economy
and to have the essentials taken for
granted.
Nimble-wittcd Tom Reed, no who
was formerly in tho czar business, is
quickly on his feet to show the hol-
lowness OF tho Democratic profession
and to make ridiculous the whole
scheme to bamboozle tho people.
The country will judge tho Democrat
ic house better after it shall have wound
up its business. Meanwhile it will re-
view each chapter OF history as it is
written. Tho Democrats in tho house
have been writing and arc writing still
some mighty entertaining history. Re.
publicans may BIO trusted to recapitu-
late it in tho press and on the stump.

West Virginia at MINI enpolls.


Some queer dispatches and some
queorer comments have been printed
about tho recent Republican convention
at Martinsburg and the probable atti.
tudc OF West Virginia in tho Republican
national convention.
Some OF the dispatches toll OF tho
election Of n Harrison delegation aftcr a
terrific fight, tho fact being that there
was no fight at all-tho delegates were
chosen by reclamation.
Other dispatches say that tho dole.

truth being that every ono Of them Is
in favor Of the denomination OF tho
President and will do what he can to
contribute. 10 that end. Some OF tho
correspondents discovered that no reso-
luton Of instruction was passed because
the convention declined to instruct.

try to instruct was the shrowd concep-
ton Of Secretary Elkins, who has some

tration holds. Everybody who knows
anything about tho convention knows
that Secretary Elkins had nothing to do
with it, directly or indirectly, that the
resolution endorsing the President and
predicting his triumphant election was
cordially received and adopted with
hearty good will as saying all that could
be said and yet leaving the delegates
free men.
West Virginia Rcpublicuns arc not

their own representatives and express
their own sentiments. They arc for
President Harrison and have selected
delegates who will vote for him. More
over they expect to give him tho six

The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette,
which used to have fits over the posi-

himself In tho senate, seems to be- dc.
sirous of seeing the great senator trotted

some Of the Ohio men wore Sherman

Uniustlflablo Assault on Jurors,

The result OF the second trial Of Dr..
Garrison does not satisfy tho Rsgister,
which lets 80 at the minority jurors in
this spitelul way:
thccoult yesterday, because 1t could not agree.
This Is the second trial the prisoner has had,
md befove The case can be disposed OF there
must at least be another. The public. worry
always give dissatisfaction. In every Jury trial
there Is n majority either tor ncquiital or con-
rlction, and as the court charged the jury yes.
tterdny. the minority oush: to Join the majority
jurlcs because OF their prejudice or opinion, and
without regard to the evidence or perhaps their
onths nrc poor citizens. md not only proloug

Quittal or a conviction should follow fair trial.
Hung" IurIes are 4 teluslon aud snare.
What right has the Register or any,
body else to try to jibbet jurors for not
going with the majority What right
has i. to insinuato that they stood
without regard to tho evidence or per-
haps to their oaths ?''
Judge PAUL., one of the clearest head
ed and most conscientious judges on
any bench, took pains to express his be.
lief that each OF the jurors had endeav.
ored conscientiously to do his duty.
Has the Register had better opportunity
than Judge PAUL to reach a conclusion
on this important phase OF the case?
Itmay be that it would DO better to
submit the question of guilt or limo
cence to a majority vote; but the law
requires that the verdict shall DO
reached by unanimous vote, holding the
twelfth man as responsible us the
eleven. It may be that IAN acquittal
or conviction should follow fair
trial." but the law leaves to each juror
whether, after hearing the evidence and
the arguments and the charge by the
court, he will decide in favor OF acquit-
tai or conviction. One juror has all the
liberty OF thought and action the
twelve have.
Nor mas the cost OF another trial or OF
twenty other trials anything to do with
the right OF the Juror to reach his own
conclusion or the right of tho accused
to have his case passed on by twelve
mon each Independent OF the other and
having regard solely to tho sanctity OF
their oath.
If a jury must BIO unanimous for fear
of denunciation by the public press,
the independence Of the Juror is gone
: and with it his usefulness as part OF
the machinery OF justice So it will be
if every juror must see as every other
juror sees under penalty OF being dc.
nounced as prejudiced, stubborn and a
poor citizen.
