many of the names SO selected we're

commended by the said Dawley.
The Court heard the testimony Of
several witnesses relative to the man
ner Of selecting the trial Jurors for
the county for the year in question
and then made his finding and deliv-
cred his decision on the motion as
follows:
From the testimony produced here
on the hearing Of the challenge, the
Court finds that all Of the persons
whose names were put on the jury list
were selected by the Board Of Coun-
ty commissioners; that none of them
were selected by Mr.. Dawley as al
legged in the challenge and also and
that it is not true that selections were
not made from old jury lists, although
IL a jury list had been used by the
Commissioners for the purpose Of
finding out the names, it would have
been perfectly proper. The book
used was book showing jury service
and it was proper for the commits
sioners to consult that book do
not find that-although Mr.. Dawley

men would be good jurymen; l do
not find that in any case the Com
mis- sioners failed to exercise their
cwn judgment in making up the list.
ERE has been no injury shown to
the defendants. For these reasons
there has been no material departure
from the forms prescribed by the stat
ute. The challenge is disallowed.'
! We have carefully reviewed the
transcript Of the evidence in the rec
ord upon the motion, and think the
same fully supports the findings and
conclusions of the trial court.
Mr. Dawley was the clerk of the
ccrrt. as well as t-e clerk Of the
loard of County Commissioners. He
had kept a record of jury service

years. Although he could not legally
select nor properly urge the selection

OLD ROADS.

Nothing of human origin In the world
Is so old and so permanent in Its nnu-
ence Oh human life as road worn by
the feet of countless generations. In
nothing was the world so slow to
change as IN the means Of passing from
place to place. Senator Lodge can find
nothing short OF the discovery of fire
utilization of steam and electricity In
place of earlier forms of motive power.
lie said in the Senate recently: From
the dawn of history to the beginning of
the nineteenth century there was no
change In these methods of transporta.
ton. There was slow Improvement In
seagolng vessels, but 1t seems probable,
II not certain, that the roads of the lio'
man empire furnished better and
more complete system of transportation
aud communication than was to be
found In Europe In the middle ages, or
even as late as the eighteenth century.
In means and modes Of communication
and transportation, which not only In

upon which that society largely rests,

SUPERVISION OF PRIVATE
BANKS

The failure of private bank ut
Pekin illustrates the need Of State
supervision of such banks. This was
one Of the oldest concerns of Its kind
In Central Illinois. 1t had long done
Il good business and was considered
perfectly sound. The business men Of
Pekln and the farmers Of Tazewell
County trusted 1t implicitly. Its meth.
DDS Of business, as often happens In
such cases, turn oat to have been much
less Trustworthy than they were con.
sldered.
The bank was closely connected with
a wagon factory, and, wishing to help
the factory broaden out, made 1t ex.
cessve loans on bad security. 1t also
made other poor investments. A time
came when the bank needed cash.
Unable to get 1t from the factory or
It's other bad investments, IL went to
the wall, causing heavy loss to stock
holders and deposltors. Its liabilities
ar, put at 100000, its assets at scarce
~ $4,000.
II the bank had been under State
supervision there would nave been no
ouch loss. 1t would have been visited
at intervals by an official examiner.
lie would have called attention to its
risky Investments as soon as they be-
gan and ordered them stopped. They
probably would have been stopped and
the failure prevented. II they had not
been the bank would have been forced
to close before its liabilities had grown
much II any bigger than its assets.
Official regulation Is necessary to pre-
vent both dishonest banking and In
competent banking. There usually has
been some OF each when failure takes
place In time Of prosperity, In some
cases more OF one, In others more OF
the other. Supervision Is needed In
large cities, where nobody knows his
nelghbor, chiefly to prevent roguery.
When a private bank breaks In Chicago
II usually is because people have trust
ed with their money some man with
whom they were unacqualnted and he
has stolen 1t. Supervision is needed in
smaller places, where every one knows
every one else, mainly as safeguard
