One who was drawn as a juryman in
brooklyn asked to be excused from
duty on the ground that the present
method of Juggling the law" seemed to
him TO be a waste Of the jurors time.
The Judge retorted, "You are not 1T TO
he a citizen, much less qualified to
serve rs a juror" Most people will
agree with the judge, because al
though the juror as citizen has
right TO his opinion on court methods
and the administration Of the law, he
was wrong In offering that opinion as
reason for ObieCtinG to do citizens
duty. That a man believes the exist.
ing method of taxation to be wrong
does not excuse him from paying his
own taxes. 4 congressman may hold
that a declaration of war is immoral
and vote against It, says the Youths
Cumpanon but he cannot on that ac.
count regard himself as exempt from
military service. A most noble and
stimulating discussion of these prob.
lens will be found i'm recent book
by Prof, Josiah Royce, The Philoso-
ply OF Loyalty" wherein mans duty
10 his own beliefs is held TO be subor-
diuate to his duty to beliefs which are
greater than the individual.

The Tramp and the Railroad.
w. N. TwINE, EditsA

ne tramp ana tOe hdlIIOdu'
We have the idea that our American
railroads kill many passengers. Yet
almost ten trespassers are killed to
every passenger killed. We believe
that the uainman takes his life in his
hands; yet more than twice as many
trespasscrS annually sustain fatal ac-
cidents says Orlando +. Lewis in the
Atlantic. When we read that in five
years 1894 trospasscrs were killed by
railroads, and 25,236 trespagsers in
iurcd, we wonder that there should be
left living a single Jack the Hobo TO
wash his shirt In these five years
there were more trespassors killed
than there are inhabitants in Bangor,
Me, or Burlington W. Were this
army OF the dead lying but three feet
apart along the tyackside i'm CHASTITY
regularity they would stretch out for
nearly n miles. At a brisk walk, II
would take four hours to reach the
end OF the line. And then, were all
those reported injured in the last five
years lying but three feet apart, we
should be obliged TO walk for more
than -four hours more, before we
reached the end Of this second line.
The Baltimore & Ohio representative
said that many railroads maintain pri-
vate tramp graveyards," in which are
hurled many pf the unknown dead

ITS BRYAN AND KERNS

Denver, Col, July 10.-William Jen-
nings Bryan was nominated for the
third time to the office Of president
of the United States by the national
convention at 3:40 this morning amid
scenes Of frenzied enthusiasm. The
result came after an all night session,
which was kept in u constant state
OF turmoil up to the eliminating mo.
ment, when the Nebraska leader was
proclaimed the choice Of the conven-
tion as the democratic standard
bearer.
How the Vote Stood.
The nomination was made on the
first and only ballot, the vote stand
ing:
Bryan S92R; Johnson 46; Gray
59h.
The announcement Of the vote was
the signal for wild demonstration,
equalling in turbulence, if not in du-
ration, the record. breaking display
which on Wednesday afternoon greet
ed the first mention of Bryan's name
I'm the convention. The scene within
the amphitheatre at the moment in
nomination was made was one of
stirring animation. From pit to
dome the vast building was packed
with ten thousand people, thinned
out in the remoter galleries by hours
of waiting and intense discomforts
of a hot night. It was a spectacle of
grandoise proportions.

Hears Of His Success.

Fairview, Neb.-The following state.
ment was made by Bryan when at
3:40 a. IN. he received the announce
ment Of his nomination as the cam
didate OF the Democratic part for
president:
"The presidency is the highest Of.
fetal position in the world, and no
on occupying it can afford to have
his views upon public questions
biased by personal ambition. Recog.
nizing his responsibility to God
and his obligations to his country
men, he should enter upon the dis
charge Of his duties with a single
ness of purpose. Believing that one
can best do this when he is not
planning for a second term, an
nounce now, as l have on former
occasions, that If elected, I shall not
be a candidate for reelection.
This nomination comes as pure
ly from the people as it can be, and
if elected, my obligations will be
purely to the people. l appreciate
the honor more because it came, not,
from one person of a few persons,
but from the rank and file, acting
freely and without compulsion."

When for a moment order could
be secured out of the tempestuous
chaos of demonstration, state after
state, which at first had recorded its
vote for Johnson or Gray, fell into
line with the over-masting column
and the nomination was made un-
animous and by acclamation.
The taking of the vote had been
followed with breathless interest as
state otter state showed Byran's
strength. New York was reached
and the announcement of Chief Muir
ply, "Seventy-eight votes for Bryan"
brought out a wild outburst of en-
thusiastic applause, which for the
time compelled suspension of the
roll call Further delay was caused
by the demand for poll of the New
York delegation. On this poll many
Of the New York delegates, including
Parker, remained silent. The entire
votes of the delegation were cast for
