serve to remind us that, while there is
value in such a contest, IL is still one

Traveller. The age of dependence on
wind is past. The age of steam is
here. This is good time for those
who, out of the use of modern methods,
have built up enormous fortunes, to
remember that even a good and will

RidioaIe Killing DueIing.

The custom Of dueling does not die
out in Germany though many are at-
tended with fatal consequences. Two
duels were fought recently near Ber-
lin, in one OF which man was killed,
while one Of the combatants in the
other was taken away with a bullet
inside him. In the latter case the
comic side was not wanting, for while
the wound was severe enough to give
his opponent satisfaction, 1T will

THE JURY SYSTEM.

The oft-repeated experience of courts
in attempting to secure a jury in cases
which have attracted general attention,
and in deyoting weeks in the selection
of jury, has led many able jurists to
discuss some substitute for jury trials.
The expense and delays incident to q
Jury trial, the temptation to lawyers to
pettifog and mislead Jurors, and the fire.
quent miscarriage of justice by reason of
the prejudice, ignorance and dishonesty
of individual jurors, leads to the conclu
sion that some method ought to be de-
vised to do away with the system.
If, instead OF keeping thirty to forty
jurors in attendance upon court during
the term, there could be selected by the
supreme court four intelligent business
men in each county to sit in the trial
and with the judge to pass upon all
questions of fact, leaving questions of
law with the judge, as at present, there
would be far less expense, fewer YER
diets set aside, fewer mistrials, and
more just verdicts. These four men
should be paid a liberal salary, should
serve four or six years, and should be
disqualified to sit in the trial of cases
only under the same circumstances as
would disqualify judge under the pres
ent law. In the trial of cases the FIVE
triers could, if they desired, take such
memorandum as they deemed necessary,
or have a stenographer make record of
the testimony, and as soon as the trial
of one case was concluded, take up an
other Immediately. At the close of a
days session they could retire, prepare
their Verdicts in the cases submitted to
them during the day, and at the opening
of the next session render them in open
court. In case of a misunderstanding g
or forgetting of the testimony on any
particular question, the memorandum
taken by the triers, or the notes of the
stenographer, could be referred to. A
more careful consideration of the testi-
mony and of the law could be given the
case, and we believe that in the long
run there would be com paratively few
unjust verdicts. The time required in
the trial of cases would be greatly re-
N"S0u1 VIC ca pOHs0 " Lh0 county Vi CII
cult courts would be decreased one-half,
or more, cases would be more carefully
and fairly tried, and the delay in the
administration of justice would be re-
duced to a minimum. We believe that
appeals, under the system suggested
would be less frequent and the work OF
the supreme court greatly reduced.
The scheme we suggest is crude; but
with study and thought in preparing
the details, we believe it could be made
most desirable and beneficial substi-
tute for the present system. OF course
any such plan would be possible only
after remodeling our constitution.

THE DURRANT TRIAL.

The press throughout the country is
criticlsing the superior court of San
Francisco, in which Durrant is being
tried, because of the time consumed in
finding competent jurors. The press of
San Francisco has diligently striven,
ever since the discovery of the terrible
crime for which Durrant is being tried,
to prejudice the people of the country
against Durrant, and Unfit its readers to
serve as jurors; and now because it has
succeeded, it abuses the court for its in
ability to find men who are not preju-
diced. The trial is travesty on justice,
but the fault lies with the sensational
newspapers of San Francisco; they have
done their utmost to prevent fair trial,
and because of their efforts it will be
extremely difficult to secure fair trial.
The papers should be the last to COM
plain at the delay in finding jury.

rage of those who ride to win. Men who drink take less. and more men do not drink at all than in any past years. This is the testimony of railway managers, life insurance agents, police captains and the general public. In New York City reform has forsaken the line of least and sought that of greatest resis- tance Municipal politics ill that metropolis and many others turn on the temperance question. The enforcement of law by Commissioner Roosevelt and the renewed war up- on Tammany, led by the redoubt- able Dr. Parkhurst, are the salient features of thetime. The constantly increasing participation of women in all of the affairs of the world is of the utmost significance for good. When woman is transplanted from the cOnseryatOries of seclusion into the great open garden of common life, the culture of that garden must become more refined and it's purpose more protecting. Mother and child are rapidly taking their place as the central figures of the great world problem. Peace in the government and purity in the homes, must be their guardian angles.
 But what the world waits for is not the new woman alone but the new man. If he spends his leisure time in what is popularly known as s.The Workingman' Club" a dis guised name for the dramshop, and his wages is levied on by the pro- prietor, a New Woman will be neces- sary to keep the home together. un- less he himself becomes a New Man. Reform forces is contemplated, and the leaders have agreed to tile fol lowing basis, which is commended to the good will of the White Ribbon Women:

 Concerning the social purity movement, she said: ssThose who form the dread procession of de- graded womanhood are chiefly the daughters of that class whose first lessons concerning the most sacred facts of life come to them with their earliest recollection in ways the most debasing. It is time that the children educated by the Nation were taught, through channels pure and wholesome, scientific truths of their own being, based on the divine laws written ill our members. 1t is time that those who, in church, Sunday School and Mission Hall arc trying to protect the tempted ones should recognize more generally the perfect ly natural and harmless desire that young people have for each others company, and we should replace the casul meeting on the street cor ncr or the appointment at the con cert hall by reputable places of wholesome entertainment, where young men and women can meet each other openly, surrounded by the safguard of helpful friends.
 Miss Willard closed her review of the. woman question in these words:
 "In primitive day s we had the matriarchchate, which means the rule of the mothers, and now for a painfully heightened period we have hal the patriarchate, or the rule of the fathers; but we begin to see the dawn of the amphiarchate, or the rule of a joint world by the joint forces of it's mothers and it's fathers; Happy are they who put their sturdy shoulders to the wheels Of this white chariot of the sum-.
