Jerome leaped TO his feet and de-
clared that this advice to the jury did
not meet the issue. Jerome said:
"The court has misconceived the is
sue. I would ask the court to sit in the
action as a magistrate tomorrow to
permit me to submit dispositions upon
which you can issue a warrant for

honor will back up your judgment with
warrants and these men are arrested
writs of habeas corpus will be issued.
Eminent jurists will represent both
sides. If you'll do this 1, as district
attorney, will retain Alton B. Parker to

there were plenty of others sitting as
magistrates. He dismissed the jury

point of view of that definition aud of
the dislike of the farmer. AS to the
persistence, our veteran farmer-natu-
ralist John Burroughs tells us: Gu.
on the head of the wild carrot, and in
a week there are five heads in room of
the one; cut off these, and by fall
there are ten looking defiance at you
from the same root"
The only fault with wild carrot,
as of other so-called weeds; is too
great success in life. 1t is guilty only
of persistence. But from a nature
lovers point of view there are, strictly
speaking, no weeds. No plant is dis.
liked. On the contrary, the more a
plant is able to strive successfully
for life. the more of interest it is. We
can also see and appreciate the beauty
without the "weedy'' dislike.
If in this spirit observers will ex-
anime the wild carrot, the verdict will
be that it is one of the prettiest and
most interesting of our native plants.
The beauty is especially noticeable N
the full bloom, or Queen Anne's

gard the birds nest form as the
most interesting.
