Juror retires with his felIow-jurors 10
find verdict Here come In the famous
eleven obstinate jurors" Here next will
be twelve compromise verdicts perhaps.
All this Is done for nothing. or next
20 nothing; and in due time the juror
finds himself at home where he learns TO
appreciate such editorials as the follow
ing from the Stanton Post. We quote
IL In full:
"A practice is becoming too prone. that
is for persons 10 denounce the verdicts OF
juries. when juries have rot brought in
such verd.cts as these critics imagine
should have been rendered. Under the
law OF our land. which. all things con-
sdercd. is well nigh the perfection OF
reason. 1t Is the duty OF me jury TO try
the case before II, not IA may be Did on
the street corners or in the public prints,
but as Il Is presented In court accUrding
to regular rule and PROCEDURE.
1T is the case as presented in court
that the jury Ia TO try. and while our
laws are as they are. unless II can be
shown that outside influence fear. or
favor affects the verdict. 1t Is tlc duty OF
good citizenship Loyalty 10 acccp the YER
dict. It Is fact too often forgotten that
the rules o. evidence and the lines OF
procedure are as much the law OF the land
as Is the law that makes the malencent
acts crime. Change the laws wisely ~
you win. but loyally support the law so
long az II exists as a law"
In word. the juror suffers more than
the Judge. the lawyers. and the specia-
tors. all counted together. and his COM
pepsatfon for his suffering is a total want
Of sympathy for him on the part OF the
citizens whose laws he has tried to adj
minister in the right way.

what the War settled.

On Monday evening Secretary Herbert
made a speech before the Hibernian So
ciety OF Philadelphia. In which he treated
at length the reasons which Influenced
the southern people TO prepare so soon
for renewing their allegiance to the Ma
tional Government. Here is one short
paragraph
"Mr. President. looking back over the
period that has elapsed since the thir-
teen Colonies won their independence and
looking forward as far as we may into
the limitless future. the great civil war,
bloody and prolonged though IL was was,
nevertheless. a single incident in the final
makeup of our government-one OF the
steps necessary TO be taken before the
country could be fairly put upon the
mighty career for which II is destined
among the nations of the earth. That war
Is final. accepted, and conclusive de-
cision that the union OF these States
Is forever indisAoluble. and yet for US and
our posterity IL stands for more than
this. Ii Is the loftiest monument in the
world Of history to the heroism, the
devotion, the courage OF mana testi-
.nony without parallel OF the willingness
of men and women reared under free
Institutions TO sacrifice themselves for
constitutional liberty"
THAT war is a final, accepted, ana
conclusive decision that the union or
these States IS forever indissoluble."
Strong language. but true, unless circum-
stances shall hereafter surround us
which we cannot now see nor foresee.
