The progress of the trial Of Registrar
Morrison in the United States court on
charge of malctously refusing TO reg
lister citizen, in which the Jury dis.
agreed after an all-night sitting, IS a
surprising instance Of tie extent TO
which partisan feelings can enter tile
Jury box. From every point in which
the case is viewed it is amazing how
the jury could have done other than
render verdict of not guilty, without
leaving the box.
To the dispassionate observer, care
full analysis of the evidence on the part
Of the government naturally occasions
surprise that the case should ever have
been pushed 70 u Jury trial. II was
proven that the prosecuting witness, IN
the first place, applied for registration
while under the influence of liquor.
The same witness came into court to
testify ut the trial in such a state of in
toxication that Judge Wales very
properly refused to accept his testimony
at the time, and adjourned court until
next morning in order to give him an
opportunity to become sober; and it was
in testimony that he was in about q SINH
lar condition when he applied for regis
tration. II was also established that the
registration officer did not positively re-
fuse to register him, but by reason of

and directed him TO return the next day

were all in favor of the defendant, and
the charge of the court was Of the same
tenor, and yet some Of the members Of
the jury tenaciously held out for 4 YER

evidence to warrant belief in the guilt
of the accused as charged in the indict-
ment.
1t is very possible that in cases where
the government may have more positive
and convincing evidence Of the guilt Of
the accused, under the Federal Elections
law, that members Of the jury may hold
out with equal tenacity for verdict Of

able service extending over sixteen
years. sore stricken by the infrmities
of age, has accepted the opportunity so
fairly rendered by the General Assembly
to resign his high place on the State
bench; place which he has admirably
filled, with credit to himself and with
fairness, ability and integrity that will
leave his name enwrcathed with proud
remembrance by the people of his little
State Associate Justice Houston, with
a record of nearly forty years of valued
public service, was not long in follow
ing his example, leaving behind him an
imperishable memorial of the good he
did so long as the ability fingered with
him to render acceptably the duties of |
his position.
1t would seem rather early to spccu
late upon who shall be called upon to |
succeed to the places so long and SO
worthily filled, and this is something
THE GAZETTE has no desire to do
But it is not too early to urge upon the
governor the grave Importance Of the
duty which will soon press upon him.
There can be no higher duty than to fill
acceptably and with an eye single TO the
best interests Of the whole people the
places about to be made vacant upon
our State bench. The cause Of the wise
and impartial administration of justice
is one that lies very near to the heart Of
every rejecting man. In the immediate
present it may not seem to personally
concern him, but it is impossible for
him 10 foresee how soon, through the
influence of circumstances possibly be-
You'd his control, he may find himself
standing in close relationship to the
administration of our laws as inter.
preted by our courts. Even if he should
never be thus personally and iudi.
vidually interested, he has still stake
in the common welfare, and that com,
mon welfare cannot be at its best unless
the best obtainablc talent, fortified by
irreproachablc character, is invested
with the power Of keeping the adj
ministration Of justice pure and whole
some and unassailable.
The position of the governor in the
carrying out of the duty which will
shortly force itself upon him is a trying
one. He alone must assume the respon-
sibility. There is no other state in this
Union in which such sole responsibility
is so vested in one man. In other states

Mr.. Bayarl on the Repeal of the Sher-
man SILVER Purchase Act.
No public utterance OF any public
man, since Grover Cleveland sent his
last message to Congress, has attracted
such attention as the recent letter of
Hon, Thomas T. Bayard in relation TO
the repeal Of the Sherman Silver Pur-
chase act. 1t was read all over the
country, and was everywhere endorsed
and approved, save in those few selfish
communities where si.v2r is a staple
commodity, and from whence comes
the demand that the entire country shall
pay tribute to their interests, regardless
Of all other considerations,
A most conspicuous instance of the
effect Of Mr.. Bayard's truthful and
forceful presentation Of the question
was the manner in which itstirred Sena-
tor Sherman, and impelled him to open
his mouth and reluctantly, even quail.
tiedly, announce himself in favor of the
repeal OF his mischief breeding silver
measure. But despite his challenge, he
has not relieved himself or the Republi.
can majority Of the Senate of the re-
sponsibility of keeping the Sherman act
in existence, as will be seen by the fol-
lowing forciblc and interesting prcsGnta-
ton Of this phase of the situation by the
Baltimore SgN!
Ex-senator Bayard is to be congratulated
upon the sncCess which has attended his
| experiment iii drawing out the Republican
| badger--or fox, as the case may be. His
ntmatiOn that the chief difficulty in pass
ing bill for the repeal Of tile silver
| purchasing act Of 1880, or in even getting
the question fairly before the senate AT
the present session, might ne found iii the
disposition of the Republican majority in
the senate to handicap, if possible, the in
coming administration had the effect Of
promptly drawing the fire of Senator
sherman, The Ohio Senator did not relish
the lntimation and plainly said 50. With
an impulse of franknpss strongly Slggcs-
tive of the like trait in his deceased
brother the general, the chairman u tile
finance committee of the Senate rushed
into print with a candid admission that
the responsibility of urging the repeal Mt
the present session rested with his own
party,
