IT IS to be hoped that the present
Tbaw trial will be conducted with less
regard to a certain public appetite for
sensatioualism than the last. A trial is
conducted primarily to obtain justice,
not to afford field for the posturiDg of
counsel. The previous hearing Of this
case awakened nBfsyorable comment
throughout the whole world upon
the operation of the criminal trial sys-
tenn. 1t is incumbent upon judge aud
counsel alike 10 see to it that no such
impression is created this time.

necessary permission for the use of the
plot of ground in front of the building
for fear that the crowds Would XIII

however, have promised ample protec-
