Yicksburg Herald: OuFestesmed
. eotempoFary, ,theMsmphisScimiiaF,
has a long well written article on
lhs subject, in which ii attempts to
maintain that it's not the jury
system which is al fault, bot the
men who sit on the juries, who are
to blame. If they would only do
their duty, the SeimitaF argues,
that crime would be punished and
not licensed, which is top often the
case.
Our view ofthe faultisnOt chang
ed one particle. The twelve men
are nearly always twelve average
citizens. The trouble lies in re-
quiring a unanimous verdict. Our
ootemporary may select the plain
est proposition, and letgOOd lawyers
argue and lie on both sides Of 1t,
and no twelve men can be found
who will agree about it unanimous
ly. To require a unanimous YER
dict in a government Ofthe najori-
ty, is a senseless, stdpid blunder.
The Seimitar refers to the White
Cap cases in this State as follows:
"The White Caps, to whom the
Commercial Herald refers, will no
doubt furnish a case in point. It is
extremely doubtful if one Of them
will be convicted, and it is doub-
looms to doughnuts that if any one
of them is convicted, he will never
be punished. For even when the
Jury cannot avoid convicting the
accused, there are legal technicali-
ties and sympathizing Governors
to help him out of harms way"
The legal technicalities may serve
any one who may be convicted,
but we must do Governor Stone the
justice to say, that he is very care.
ful in exercising the pardOning
power. We do not believe he would
pardon such odious criminals as
White Caps.

well-known farmers Of Perry and
Crawford counties, Indiana, are

tfy to force him to confess. Failing
to extort any confession, the savagss
hunghim from a limb of a tree. 1t
was sosn prOventhat MIR. Davidson
had no knowledge of the alleged
assault on the Irish girl, but these
secrets Of the white cap band were
so we'll kept that no direct evidence
against them could be presented in
court. One of the leaders of the
gang, named Otto Lortonberg, wa'
convicted upon another charge, al
the last term Of court at Cannellton
and sentenced to a long term in the
penitentiary, and another turneC

Little Rock, Ark, March 2O.-
The police here are beginning to
give credit to the theory that the
murderer Of John NJ. Clayton is
under arrest at Butte, Mont. The
congressional investigation showed
that the weapon with which Clayton
was killed was sold by a st. Louis
house TO q Butte, Mont, firm, and
by them again sold. This train of
evidence leads to the conclusion
that the murderer may have re-
turned to Butte.
