THF LEDOUX DECISION.

The decision of the supreme refusing rehearing
Of the judgment of the appellate court in granting new
trial Mrs Emma Ledoux is being generally commented
upon throughout the state Some critics inclined to
hold this decision up aoding another illustration of the
tendency the appellate the trial courts on
technical grounds is conended that the verdict of the
jury aside in this bald techncality namely
because the jurors summoned by sheriff who pre-
JUDGED against the defendant The officer had taken
prominent part in hunting up evidence against the accused
and in doing had become firmly convinced of her guilt
This doubt the in nine out of every ten criminal
trials 1t is the business of sheriff crime and
use every legitimate make the evidence COM
pete. The must be something than human who
could pass through ordeal of this kind and emerge with
out strong impression being left upon his mind concern
ing the guilt otherwise of the accused Why then, it
may be asked should bias against the defendant be made
ground of reversal when the law imposes upon the sheriff
the duty of gathering evidence.
The decision upses the practice heretofore followed in
nearly all the of the Still that itself affords
why it should be continued not founded on
sound legal principles The proposition that to be
settled by this decision is that officer who is preudiced
against defendant should not be permitted to
special venre where the selection of the individual
largely under his control In summoning the regular
Jurors drawn from the list jurors select
ed by the authorities the sheriff has discretionary power
But when the regular panel exhausted and he directed
go into the body of the county and certain
number of aesmen the personnel of the prospective jurors
entirely within his discretion The supreme says
this discretion be exercised by who is UMPIRE
JUDGED The jurors required to be without bias
udce and by the process of reasoning would seem
that the officer who is authorized select aesmen should
be in the same frame of mind The decision will entail adj
donal expenses in criminal trials but nevertheless is in
accord with the law which guarantees defendant fair and
impartial trial
That Mrs Ledoux is guilty Of this cold blooded murder is
almost universally conceded 1t established by the te
timony beyond all reasonable doubt She deserves punish

whose father was an Indian chief and
noble in the Shoshone tribe, is the

is possessed of a beautiful soprano
voice and a keezly sensitive musical
nature. The Indians appearing in the

reservations by permission OF the gov
ernment. and the story in which they
appear. while it may not be new, is
most interesting and thrilling. Incl
dental TO the sketch there are intro
duced the dances and songs OF the
aborigines and the ceremonies which
used to characterize the life OF the
Indian before the white man drove him
into pocket reservations.
The Six Little Girls and the Teddy
