A Whimsical Wager.

A young Austrian nobleman who
had the reputation of being a bril-
liant talker made wager with a
club friend that during the first
year of his marriage with the daugh-
ter of certain count he would pre-
serve a rigid silence when in her
presence and, in fact, would not
speak single word to her. This
resolution he faithfully kept; but,
owing to the fact that the wager
was not made public, some very Gu
rious consequences ensued. His
wife, believing him to be insane,
privately sent brain specialist to
examine the taciturn gentleman.
He was on the point of being con-
veyed to a sanitarium when he dis
closed the reason of his behavior.
When the year was up he claimed
the wager, which was duly paid.

MARK THE DIfFtRfAct.

Never In the history OF great
political national campaigns in
America has there been exhibit, d
such a distinct and marked differ
ence in the methods of great
parties, as characterizes this one
of 1908.
The Republican nominee the
figure head Of machine politics,
manipulated by dictation and EN-
phasized by a packed convention.
The nominee subservicnt, with
out persona. independence to ex-
press his views on leading issues,
submitting his expressions OF ac-
ceptance. alteration, interlineation
and ALTERATION.
Dodging the principles of the
platform of his own party. or ad-
diag to its declarations. he seeks
to pIacate protected interests, the
trusts. corporations and combines
and currys favor with predatory
wealth.
Distrustful of his own utter
ances, he eschews any active par
ticipation in the campaign. and
lives in almost seculsion at Hot
Springs. Va.
There is nothing magnetic. or
assuring in his candidacy from its
very inception. and he fails to take
into his confidence the masses OF
the American people.
Wm. Jennings Bryan. the nomi-
nee of the representatives of the
people. is selected as the Demo
cratic leader amid an unprecedent-
ed enthusiasm. The principles
for which he stands are clean cut,
concise. most pronounced. and
without subterfuge or evasion.
They have been accepted. in an
arraignment of the policies of his
antagonist, as being the exponent
of all the ills under which the
people suffer without the relief oil
demanded remedial legislation.
"Shall the people ruler is the
shibboleth of his campaign.
Bold. uncompromising. honest.
fearless and plain, Mr.. Bryan rests
his cause on the patriotic devotion
of every true freeman. who loves
his home and his native land and
who believes in the fundamental
principles of the Constitution
This is the land of liberty. and thr
government is by the people. no,
by the enriched classes.
In response to the proclamation:
Let the people rule" they are
responding in clarion utterances
all over the land to this battle CT,
of the Democracy. The time ha.
come for such a political revolu
ton as has never heretofore swep,

The Law and its Delays.

luo kdW duo isS
To eliminate tecbnicalitles as
obstacles in the path of justice is
the work undertaken by a COM
mittee of the American Bar Asso-
clation, which will report to the
parent body at the annual gath
ering in Seattle this month.
Courts of appeal will no longer
decide either civil or criminal
litigations brought before them
upon anything except the merits
of the eases. provided the recon-
mendations Of this special bar
association committee shall be
enacted INTO law.
The American Bar Association
has finally realized the truth OF
the assertion made by famous
English diplomat and jurist re-
Gently that the lawyers of the
United States are mainly re-
sponsible for the delays of the
law, resulting, oftentimes. in the
utter failure of justice. L h g
English law does not provide for
appeals upon errors by the lower
court, but upon the merits of the
case as they appear of record.
The committee from the bar
association, after calling attention
to the conditions existing. de-
clares that the tendency of the
courts is tn construe adherence
to strict legal rules as the right of
each party, and to reverse if
there has been any infraction of
these rules. "This makes the
trial of a case a game. in which
{ ,e one who plays with the great
est skill shall win, the merits OF
the controversy having no part,
says the committee.
The unrestricted writ of error
in criminal cases is characterized
as one of the most fragrant abuses
that has grown up in judicial
procedure, being constantly sued
out for purposes of delay, and
it is recommended that no writ of
error. rcturnable to the supreme
court of the land, should be al
lowed unless the justice mt the
court granting the writ shall
certify that there is probable
cause to believe the defendant
was covicied without sufficient
evidence. In other words, that
no writ of error shall be granted
to the supreme court upon tech
nicaI grourds alone.
The reforms sought by the
committee from the Bar Associa-
tion haye been tried in England,
so far as civil procedure is
concerned, and have proven sat
isfactory to the lawyers and of
benefit to the litIgants. The
method of procedure in criminal
cases IN England has never per-
mitted such delays as have been
possible in the United States
under our system, which permits
the issuance of writs of error
regardless of the merits of the
case.
The sinner who repents of his
wrong doing is more than half
converted. Let the people take
hope, therefore, IN this good
sign of the approaching CONVEX
sion If the Ia vyers of the
country.
The lawyers have been respon-
sibIe for the growth of this
system, aud many of them have
waxed fat upon this very green
field for operation. With them
1t has been, nearly always, the
earning of a fee-eveu though il
meant the defeat of Justice
which held first consideration. If
the demands of the law and the
needs of justice are hereafter to
be the first considerations of the
lawyer, then, indeed, will the
,otten system of legal procedure
toppls down.
1t has been declared that "two
