Criminal C0ata.


From the Jefferson City Tribune.
"We do not believe that any bill
affecting the disposition Of criminal
cases should be passed unless it directly
tends to reduce costs and to promote
speedy trials. The delays incident to
criminal prosecutions, In the way of
continpancss, changes of venue, etc.,
are largely responsible for the cen
staptly swelling aggregate Of criminal
costs, and the people OF gil classes
insist upon some measure OF practical
reform. In the matter OF changes Of
venue, u most ~intolerable evil has
grown into existence, which defeats
Justice and constantly ~irritates public
opinion. Cases are transferred to new
jurisdictions on the most trivial ground
and incomplete evidence. This inev-
itably tends 10 increase costs and to
create delay. In many Of the states
the whole system, as it Is in force 10
Missouri relating to such transfers, is
unknown, and It is not eytdent that
any useful object has bsen conserved by
this l~iberality. 1t remains true, of
Coutsc, tUob WuESO psSSt tsSlN~'SS
exists against the accused he y entitled
10 a rent val to some other trial court,
but this should be made very clear
indeed and not merely based upon
some affidavit gotten up through the
INSCRIPTIONS ingenuity Of some GRIM
inal lawyer.
There should be unquestionable
and substantial proof Of such prejudice,
tho nature qnd character Of which many
good lawyers think shsald be defined
by statute.
.sIt is an absurd abuse Of the system
that the state should be put to trouble
and expense merely to increase the
chance of u defeat OF justips. The
whole matter Of costs in criminal cases
should be carefully reviewed. particu-
larly in the matter Of 'Commuted
