OF all the many much-needed reforms for
which the better class of Americans con-
tinually cry aloud. none are more pressing
than that which demands improvement in
the present jury system. In all our affairs
national. municipal and corporative-we are
governed by the majority, and the question
may reasonably be asked why that rule
does not apply to the conclusions reached
by our juries Perfect unanimity is hard to
secure among any twelve men. Especially
must this be difficult when testimony. of
various and conflicting descriptions, and
arguments that touch both extremes, have
been skilfully used to affect, II possible.
he judgment of the men in whose hands is
the fate and perhaps even the life of the
person whose case is being tried. In view
of the many mis-t-ials which have come to
pass through the requirement Of unanimity
would 1t not be well to at least experiment
with another system? Many a criminal has
escaped because his friends have succeeded
in getting one man on jury who could be
depended upon to upset proceedings at what
he or his employers deemed to be the appro-
pirate time. In some Of the more conspicu-
Gus Instances there has been vast increase
in the cost Of prosecution by reason of these
delays. and no one will argue that crime
has not been encouraged by the objecttona-
Bile processes of which complaint is now
made. Radical improvement Is also possible
In the manner Of selecting Jurors.

The very remarkable family we're raising:
And I'm sure that we merit these tributes

But every brood has some chicks who are

RAILROAD TRACK ELEVATION,
Gen. Birney Makes Strong Argument
FavOring the Bill.

Gen. Birney Makes a Strong Argument
Favoring the Bill.
The bill to compel the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company to elevate its tracks or
delaware avenue was up for consideration al
meeting Of the House Committee on the
district OF Columbia, yesterday.
Gen. William Birney, representing the East
washington Citizens Association. appeared
before the committee to advocate the passage
OF the bill. He called special attention to the
qualificafions OF the charter granted by Con.
gress to the company, forbidding the obstruc.
ton Of roads, streets or other thorouphfares
He cited case in Connecticut of similar
character TO the one in question. where a rail.
road had been required to remove its tracks
and the United States Supreme Court had ans,
tanned the action. He declared it to be duto
OF Congress to force the company to elevate
its tracks whenever it obstructed the passage
of surface traffic.
Mr.. Hamilton. representing the Baltimore
claimed that the case in Connecticut was not
parallel to the one here. as that company had
not been compelled to elevate its tracks, but
only remove them TO u different position.
Gen. Birney concluded his argument by
that the police power of the gov
ernment authorized the removal of the tracks
in compliance with the terms of the charter,
and said that the removal of the tracks from
their present route to another on the same
avenue would not b. depriving the company
OF any right it justly possesses. At the con-
ciusion of the argument the committee adj
lourned until next Friday at 10 o'clock.
