The greatest trouble with the
Democratic party is want of
frankness on the part Of many
of those who went wild over the
ignis fatuus of free silver.
There are two classes of them;
one is the confiding kind of citi-
Gems, too busy or too lazy to in
vestigate for themselves and who
depend solely on the preacher for
their religious belief and the dem
agogue for their politics. The
other is the political leader who
knew all along that free silver
was populistic and not a demo-
cratic doctrine but who was will
ling to accept it and preach and
defend it because it was popular
and meant their politicalsuccess.
If some genius would
devise a means by which so
numerous and so respectable a
contingent of the party of the
people" could be brought to an
acknowledgment of their folly,
and the demagogue leaders of
four years ago could be induced
to go away back and be seated
then there would be some hope
for the democratic party at the
next national election.

the opportunity offered by the

The property had not even

Uncle Dave Clements who re-
Gently has been quite often
drawn, or caught" as grand
jury, and who was regularly
drawn" for the present term of
court, asks us to explain through
the columns of the Enterprise the
difference in a drawn" grand
juror and a caught" grand jur-
or, by which we are led to pre-
sumo that Uncle Dave has been
impressed by what has recently
been said in these columns on
the subject of professional jurors
and the jury lobby:
The professional juror may be
regularly drawn" since his
name must be in the jury box to
qualify him for the service, but
h is often caught" He under
stands that at every term of the
court number of jurors must
be found to fill out the jury al
ways reduced below the mini
mum by ineligibles and excuses,
thus an opportunity is made for
the professional juror who puts
himself in the way of the sheriff,
who is instructed to catch up a
certain number necessary to fill
out the jury.
In some counties (for the pro-
fessional juror is rot peculiar to
any county or counties, but tothe
system the sheriff is a party to
the scheme and before the court
convenes the list is made up and
not infrequently matters to come
before the grand jury are dis
cussed and a plan of campaign
mapped out for the protection of
individuals and records to be in
vestigated or for the prosecution
or persecution of individuals not
supposed to be in league with the
conspirators or who, mayhap,
have incurred the displeasure of
the high jury fixer, but in coun-
ties like Irwin where the sheriffs
are above the ugly practices a.
bove referred to, the profession
al juror has to trust largely to
luck and his tact for being in the
right place at the right time.
Yes sir, Uncle Dave, there are
professional jurors and they of
ten manage to get caught" but
it should not be inferred that
every caught" juror is profess
Sional.
Now it is altogether possible
that there are readers of the En-
terprise disposed to treat what
we have said on this subject as a
joke but we wish it understood
that we are serious about the
matter. The evil about which
we write, a most pernicious one,
cannot be remedied in any other
way, at least in no more effective
way, than by criticism and en-
posture, and we are engaged in a
serious effort to discourage the
professional juror"
