Naturally there Is considerable ex- citement about yellow fever, while but little notice Is taken of typhoid fever In other cities, yet the records show that about 200 cases of this disease have been reported in Washington City since July 1. Typhoid Is not considered con tagious, but the cause or conditions which produce one case will produce others, and in this respect 1t Is as dan gerous as are those diseases which are carried from one to another.

AN ovER-zEALoUs JUDGE.

The Savannah Press very justly. 1t seems to us. criticises the action of Judge Wright of Georgia, who kept had announced their inability to agree on a verdict. There was time in Eng land, if we remember correctly. when if a jury could not come to an agree ment while the session of the court lasted, the entire panel was forced to travel to the next place where the court sat and there continue their delibera- tions.
 No such rule or system can be car ried out in this country, but it really seems that the action of Judge Wright was but little better. A verdict under coercion can hardly be regarded as an impartial verdict. and in this instance we fail to see how the action of the court can be called anything else. It was virtually telling the jurors that they should remain shut up in their
 room, prisoners in fact, until they
 should agree on a verdict It was a drastic method which savored very | much of tyranny, and we fall to see how it could be excused or defended. But the cruelty to the jurors is not the worst feature of a case of this kind, as we view 1t. The verdict of a jury should be a voluntary act, and should be based on the unbiased conviction of the members, founded on the evidence and on their free and uninfiuenced be- lief in the guilt or innocence of the prisoner. Such verdicts form the only safeguard against wrong, and are the only means by which justice may be dealt out to all citizens.
 It is hardly possible that fair yer dict would be rendered under such cir cumstances as we allude to. It Is not always the most intelligent men who are most firm in their convictions. and in a case of this kind a few of the jury might be so obstinate. when they found the judge trying to force them
 to an agreement that they would make
 A verdict impossible. Then. too, 1t
 might happen that jurors who have a
 firm belief in the innocence of pris- | oner would agree to a verdict of guilty
 rather than remain shut up for an in-
 definite period. In short, any way we
 look at 1t, the action of this judge was
 not the way to secure such a just yer
 dict as the law contemplates.

 Mayor V. B. Atkins in his action to- ward Montgomery has not only demon strated beyond doubt that Selma has a Mayor thoroughly awake to her inter- ests. but one who will not be swayed hv excitement and box up a sister city by quarantine. without proper reason for doing so.
 Montgomery under the most trying circumstances, has honorably. wisely and promptly reported her first case of yellow fever. This information could have been suppressed and no one would have been the wiser. but she comes to the front and not only reports this case, but tells you what has been done with 1t, and says that she will as promptly report any future developments with this case or another that might occur, and Selma trusts her, and rightly so.
