cording to the dispatches the verdict
in this case was set aside and Z new
trial granted because. mainly. one CT
the jurors was cousin within the
fourth degree to a man who had con-
tributed TO the prosecution of the de
PENDANTS. If this is Ithe law doesn't
it seem as If the law should be amend
ed? If it were shown that the juror
joined in rendering verdict of guilty
because Of his relationship to the
man who helped to prosecute the ac-
cused men there would be pretty good
ground for setting aside the verdict,
but was there evidence of any sach
influence? We have heard Of ncne.
II verdicts are to be set aside be-
cause a juror happens to be a rela-
tive of somebody who wants the ac-
cused parties convicted it is easy to
see that the difficulties in the way Of
Furnishing those who commit the crime
Of murder are almost insurmcuntable.
The whole state remembers the
killing of Mr.. Fleming Smith, the
young drug clerk, at Jesup a year
or SO ago. The killing caused great
indignation throughout the state. AS
to the merits of the case against the
Lyenses we venture no opinion at
this time. The accused parties will
of course, be put on trial again, and
it is but fair that they should have
every advantage the law gives them
We do not want to lessen their chance
for fair trial by assuming that the
evidence against them is sufficient to
Justify their conviction The only
point we wish to make at this time
Is that If the ground on which a new
trial has been granted is strictly in
accordance with the law, a criminal
who has plenty of money with which
to make his defense is in very little
danger Of being punished.
I'm the case under consideration a
relative of juror paid money to as
sist in the prosecution of the accused
men. If this relative had paid no.
money, but had simply expressed him
self openly and strongly in favor of
the conviction Of the defendants,
would there have then been ground
Gu which TO grant new trial? If
not, why not? The assumption is
that the activity Ct the relative in
behalf of a conviction Of the defen-
dants Influenced the juror to join in
a verdict of guilty, but if this rela
live had been persistent in his eff
forts to convince the public that the
defendants were guilty, but had con-
tributed no money. wouldn't the
ground for believing he had infu-
enced the juror be just as strong?
It certainly seems reasonable to think
So"
