PROFESSIONAL JURORS, AGAIN.
Communicated

Editor NEws:-I see in your issue of
May Sth. 1908, an article headed "Pro-
fessional Jurors" Now, Mr.. Editor
as you have been so kind as to publish
this for Citizen, let me say TO you
that you are mistaken. First you say
that your friend "must look to other
sources than the statute for an expla-
nation" and you further say that the
law does not prescribe how often a
man may serve on jury. Now, L refer
you to Sec 3l49, Of the Code Of Va.
You will find that it reads as follows.
to wit: "No person is liable to serve rs
juror more than once during the same
year. No person who In pursuance OF
such draft has actually attended any
court and served as a Juror shall
be liable to be drawn again during the
same year. unless ali the persons
whose names are in the jury box have
been drawn to serve during such year. >.
will also refer you to Sec. 3149 and
$3.50, and will let you hear from me
again along this line when / have more
time. Yours Trulv
CITIZEN.
The law says, "shall not be liable .
that is, as we understand it, cannot DE
compelled to serve more than once
but may serve as often as drawn il he
choOses.-Ed.

New York. Sept 19.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Business has made moderate progress
during the past week. despite unusual
opposition from the elements. When
all other industries are to a cOnsid-
erable degree dependent upon agri-
cultural conditions, reports of serious
injury to crops by cold and wet wealth
er are not calculated to stimulate con-
fidence. Subsequent corrections indi-
Gated that the amount of damage had
been exaggerated as usual and pros
pects frightened
Manufacturing plants are well oc-
cupied as a rule. even the textile mills
reporting less idle machinery. Lum-
ber is in better demand as structural
activity revives. Payments are sea-
sOnably promptexcept where late crops
delay settlements and the outlook for
fall and winter business contains much
that is encouraging. Prices have held
fairly steady during the past week,
although there were numerous rumors
regarding prospective reductions.
Failures this week were 219 in the
United States, against 199 last year.

Places Itself on

Port Huron. Mich. Sept 19.-The So
cialistic propaganda in the Michigan
Fedora tion of Labor was given 4 de-
cisive defeat in the convention. the
federation placing itself squarely Oh
record as being opposed to the mixing
of socialist political principles With
trades uniOnism.
The fight was precipitated by the Ne
porting out of a resolution of pro-
nounced socialistic tendency and de-
claring for the ultimate abolition of
the competitive wage system and the
substitution therefor of a collective
ownership by all the people of all the
public utilities of production, diStribu-
ton. transportation, communication
and exchange. and it's democratic ad-
ministratiOn, so as to afford an equal
opportunity to all. The resolution was
eoted down by big majority.
The socialists also sought to force
through a resolution condemning mem
bership of union men in the state mill
tia. but it was fought down success
fully.

DICK DECLINES THE OFFER
ssys the Law Has Been Repealed and
There Is No Public Demand.

Columbus, o.. Sept. 10. - General
Charles Dick, chairman of the Repub-
lican state executive committee, de-
clines to entertain the proposition that
YtemiZed statements of expenditures in
cident to the campaign be kept by each
committee and that the same be pub
lished under affidavit on the Satur-
day preceding the election. Referring
to the Garfield corrupt practices act
recently repealed, which made such
statements compulsory. Chairman Dick
says:
THE only party organization and
candidates carefully and conscientious
ly complying with all the provisions
of that law were those of the Repub-
lican party. The law~was repealed by
the last legislature, the bill for its re-
peal being introduced by Mr.. Devaul,
the Democratic representative from
Monroe county, a large majority of
Democrats and Republicans voting for
it. There was no public de-
mand for its repeal My observation
is that there has been no public de-
mand for its re-enactment. Therefore,
it is logical to concfhde the public has
little or no direct interest in the mat
.er.
''Since your party did not comply
with the law when if was in force l
cannot now understand your great
anxiety to carry outfits provisions aft
err it has been repeated. SO far as the
Republican state committee is con
cerned. its books are open to the in
spectiOn of all whose business it is to
examine them. Beyond this the COM
mittee declines to go, believing there is
no adequate reason Or call for making
public its affairs. We believe that by
.eason of the faithful compliance with
the law during the past seven years
the public mind has been disabused of
the suspicion that the Republican state
organization is given to corrupt meth
eds in the use of money"
