day his head ached and he followed the
case with much difficulty. The fourth
day he WAS drowsy, his appetite failed,
and he was astonished by lot of conflict
ing testimony that bothered him. He
became nervous and i'll. The fifth day
he gave up the effort to follow the case,
as did most of the jurors, who grew list
less and stupid, and longed for the trial
to end. The sixth day was the day of
argument, and this only made matters
worse, as 1t all seemed dull and in
volved. In the jury room there was little
discussion, some Quarreling and much
anxiety to get through and away. The
majority voted guilty. and the rest. after
a wrangle. seeing how il stood, came
over TO that side and breathed easier that
would not be caught again.
It cannot have escaped attention of at
tornsys and Judges, that in long trials
condition of listlessness grows among
the jurors. Their faces become pale,
their eyes grow dull and they appear
to be struggling to keep up an appearance
of interest and watchfulness. It is often
noted that jurors appear surprised as
counsel or Court repeat the testimony, as
if the matter was all new to the men in
III the box. Argument and charge very
often bring the average jurors mind into
a condition of perplexIty out Of which it
does not emerge, so far as that case is con-
cerned. Mental confusion created while
in the box. is rarely cleared up after the
jury retires for deliberation.
We cannot follow the subject in greater
detail. 1t is not difficult for the reader to
fancy the further lines of the DOCTORS
argument. But he stops short with stat
ing his case. for he offers no remedy. The
value of the discussion to US is in the sug-
gestion of remedy that presents itself at
once. namely, that jurors should be
trained to duty; that they should be men
accustomed to strong and long continued
mental strain; that their mental athletics
should be considered in arriving at their
fitness to sit on jury. That they should
be men whose habits of life are not such
that interruption for few days will
much affect their mental vigor and elias
ticity.
Is it possible to have suoh juries?
Assuredly. It would be really less diff
ticult to impanel twelve such men than to
select twelve of the other order. But to
secure them knowledge of the case must
not be a disqualification, nor for that
matter opinion concerning it, provided
the condition of the mind Of the juror is
such that whatever opinion is entertained
the case will likely be adjudged by the
juror upon analysis and judicial weighing
of the facts submitted. Some day the
laws will be amended so that to the jury
box it shall be as requisite that mental
qualification comes as to the bench.

The record-union., 1895-07-06

THE Oregonian reflects the sentiment
of the RECoRD-UNIoN to the letter when
it says:
There is no fundamental distinction be-
tween the pulpit socialist who calls himself q
collectivist. or the college socialist who calls
himself a political economist, and the plaza
orator who demands that Government shall
seize all the property of the country and ad-
minister it for the benefit of all the people.
This sentimental objection to the
present organization of society has been ad-
vanced at various times and sometimes las
found large temporary entertainment for
more than century. 1t is a false corolary
of the law of personal freedom and civil
equality, which a hundred years OF political
revolution has established In most parts of
the civilized world.
The record-union., 1895-07-06
we need most is little official eyesight
and courage.

DEBs published letter as he went to
jail for disobeying the laws of his coun-
try, In which he denounced Judge Woods
as an autocrat who carries out Russian
practices. and implores his own sympa-
thizers not to lose heart, as the cause of
the American Railway Union will
triumph. What is there over which
to Triumph What has the Ma
ton done that the man who sought
its overthrow should from his cell sound
the note for second attempt? Debs is a
nuisance. He prates like simpleton. If
he imagines for a moment that the
American people are going to give up
their free government for the rule Of his
organization, he is fool. But what else
can be mean than that. when he says
that the storms of persecution beat upon
him and the order, and that he and it will
ultimately triumph? Debs boldly
claimed that the courts Of the people are
impotent to enforce their DEGREES, and be-
cause the Supreme Court disagreed with
him, he snivels and shouts about perse
cution, autocratio DEGREES and tyranny.
The truth is that the courts have not held
that labor may not organize. nor anything
else short of reasonable influences, La
Dor is simply told that it is bad citizen
ship to defy the laws, and that the max
ing of the laws is the business of the peo-
pie; that, indeed, the only Government
we have is that of the people; so that
he insults the people who make and di-
rect it..

ALL FAIR IN LOVE.
Ihe Defeated Rival Was Best Man
the WeddiuU "a PEI. Agreement

The Defeated Rival Was Best Man at
the Wedding, as Per Agreement.
When the morning express arrived the
other day from Cincinnati there came as
passengers Robert NJ. Lindsay and bride.
nee Miss Nellie Girton OF Camp Hage-
man, .. Mr.. Lindsay is one of the
largest coal operators of this section of
tennessee, and his arrival with wife
was very happy surprise to his friends,
says Brlceville, Tenn, correspondent
OF the Cincinnati COMMERCIAL Gazette.
around their wedding is woven a ro-
nance rather out of the usual run Of such
affairs.
About a year ago c. M. Moore, also of
This place, visited the Normal Unlver-
slty at Lebanon, o.. and by accident
met Miss Girton and fell in love with
her. MOore and Lindsay were bosom
friends, and when the former returned
here he confided to Lindsay the details
of his Ohio visit. In a joking way Lind
say vowed that he would Win Miss Cir
ton away from Moore, and the latter, with
true Southern chivalry, assured him that
the contest should be fraught with none
save the kindliest of feelings, and that
the unsuccessful suitor should be the best
man at the wedding.
Soon thereafter Lindsay addressed
letter to the lady in question. A oorre-
spondence soon sprung up and in the
fall Lindsay, after an exchange of photo
graphs, begged the privilege of calling
upon Miss Girton at her home. The lat
ter referred his request to her father. O.
A. X. veteran, who communicated with
Tennessee comrades to ascertain what
kind of man Lindsay was. In due
course of time the father was informed
that the gentleman was all that could be
desired in the way of sOn-in-law, and
when yuletide was at hand the South
erner was pressing his suit with Miss
Girton.
When he returned to this city at the
close of the holidays he served notice
upon Moore that it was the expressed
wish of Miss Girton and himself that he
should be the best man at their wedding
in May. The unsuccessful rival lived up
to his bargain.
