IT is reported from Iowa that every
Republican elected to the legislature is
in favor of carrying out the pledge OF
the party platform hostile to prohibit
ton, and the prohibltionists who aided
in their election are exceedingly discon-
ISOLATE. The prohibs have no one to
blame but themselves if all the work
they have heretofore accomplished is
rendered nugatory by the next legis-
lature. They called down this fate
upon their own heads, and deserve no
sympathy whatever. They have gained
nothing out of the election but expert
ence, and this comes too late to do them
any good.

want to keep the plumber and continue
the right to plumber. they need to be
told plainly aud blnntiy that they aren't
Democrats; that they are nothing

peace of mind and for the good name of
a party which they now besmirch Their

party in the South; there have been but

A FLEXIBLE JURY SYSTEM

n FLEAiBLE JURY SYSTEM.
The interruption to the trial of the
bank robbers caused yesterday by an
accident to one of the jurors may not
produce serious consequences, but it
suggests contingencies in which great
injury may be wrought to the cause of
justice through defect in ths criminal
code and the civil code as well-whieh
should receive the attention of the legis-
Iature.
Under our present laws jury once
lmpaneled must sit together and de-
termine all causes at issue. no matter
what their duration may be. If one of
the twelve is attacked by sickness or
overtaken by death at any time, even if
the evidence has all been submitted, the
charge of the judge delivered, and the
Jurymen have retired to consider their
verdict, no judgment can be rendered.
This compelS retriai of the case at
some subsequent term of court, inv0lv-
Ing great expense to the state and de-
lay in the execution of the law. which
is in many instances destructive of
justice and prtjudiciai to public inter
a second jury can be selected some OF
The most important witnesses have died
or disappeared, or that papers vital to
the litigants have been made away
with. Thus a public or private injury
is done, and in either case the Interests
of justice are subverted.
In several of the states the jury law
hpnn .Ad nj In -
permit of the conclusion of trial in
case of the disability or death of a juror.
This can only be done, however, by
mutual consent of the parties, as is the
case when jury is dispensed with al
together. 1t is hard to see how the in
tereSt CT either party to cause could
be injured by such course. Eleven
men can arrive at just verdict as
readily as twelve. Tradition, and the
letter of the law, which is based on
tradition, is, however, bar to the prac-
tice, no matter how desirable it may be.
Reform of the jury system has been
much discussed, both in legislative
bodies and in the newspapers, but
this phase of the question has
been practically ignored. 1t would
seem that the subject was Of suffi-
cient Importance to demand atten-
ton. The present case is not an excep-
tional one. Similar instances are Of
frequent occurrence. and it is amazing
that there has never been any concerted
effort to devise remedy. The average
member Of the bar cannot be expected
to move in the matter. tor his fees are
increased by each delay in procuring
trial OF the causes in which he is con-
cerned. yet the vast majority of the pro-
fession look upon such matters through
the same glasses as the general public.
Of one thing the GLOBE is satisfied:
There would be no harm done to the
ause of justice by the removal Of this
traditional bar to the hearing OF causes.
The number of men who compose Jury
is merely technical. 1t can be changed
without interfering with the rights Of
any litiGant in criminal or evil courts.
A flexible jury as to numbers would
conduce to the general welfare by hast
ening the work of the courts and pre-
venting delays that can only result in
the defeat Of the purposes of the law.
