The Jury System.

The jury system, which always
seems to be open to criticism, is per-
sistently defended by it's friends, be-
cause of it's antiquity and because it
is supposed to represent the people, "
who. it will be remembered, met the
Saviour with hosannas one day 'andno
long after clamored for His blood.
The general results Of most discuss
ions on the jury question is the dis
cussion that while this palladium"
and ''bulwark" should be preserved, it
should be considerably amended. The
main objections to the jury are the
slovsnly and sometimes corrupt man
ner in which it is organized, and the
plan frequently adopted-especially in
capital Icases-of filling the jury
box with persons who have not read
anything about the case, because they
do not know how to read, and who
have not formed or expressed an opin-
ion because they are incapable of such
mental action.
There remains, however, no doubt
hattie jury, with all Of it's imper-
fections on its head, will continue as
an institution. Its name, as its de-
tenders assert. is associated with
equal justice and popular rights, al
though there have been abundant
instances when the jury has Knocked
one and betrayed the other. But,
while the jury system is in our day
the object of severe criticism and not
little contempt, 1t will leave on &C.
count Of the good it has done on nota-
BILE occasions and because the right to
be tried by jury has been embodied
in every great charter of human liber-
ties. The i'm provement Of juries is a
matter not easy Of accomplishment.
1t implies the improvement Of society
generally, and in many cases of the
entire structure Of the courts Of JUS
tice. The improvement jury cannot
be expected as a fact until the Jury
fxer has been abolished Between
the representative Of the wisdom Of
the ages who contends for the jury as
it is, and who reasons that the jury
should live merely because it always
has lived, and the many who cry out
for its obstruction as an outworn evil,
there is middle ground occupied by
those who hope for a jury system
thoroughly renovated and repaired

The politicians in the democra
and pop parties in this section art
making a desperate effort to ge
these two mis-it organizations to-
gether this year. They are having
a hard time of it, The pops recog-
nize the fact that there is nothing in
common between the two organiza-
tons but office and that the demo
Gratis still hang out for an equal di-
vision of the spoils, while they have
but about ten per cent. of the votes.
There is also a number of pops who
are conscientious and believe in the
pop principles and they are buck
ing on fusion. 1t is going to be a
whole lot harder to get up a combi-
nation this year than ever before.
The pops begin to realize that if the
coalition continues, they can never
be political party of national i'm
portance and that they are, outside
of Kansas and Nebraska, being used
simply as catspaws for the demo-
Gratis. The middle of-the-roaders
are becoming more numerous and
are bound to make trouble for the
spoilsmen.

Gen. Corbin saws the camp was estab-

order TO avoid the possibility of the in
PRODUCTION of yellow fever. IL was not
intended as a permanent camp and
will be abandoned when il has served
the special purpose for which IL was
established. From present indications
the camp will be maintained there sew

dered TO their home camps as soon as
they are ready TO move or discharged
from the service after n two months
furlough. II Is estimated that there
are about $4,000 troops at the camp,
including the regulars.
