PERJURY IN COURT.

As to perjury in our courts con-
corning which The Bulletin has had a
few words to say recently the Phil
adelphia Record has the following.
Even a casual observer cannot have
failed to notice that there il much
false evidence given in our courts.
The fact is thrust upon ones atten-
tion. Not only in sensational murder
trials. but in almost every civil pro
ceding or Quasi-judicial investigation
which is of sufficient general interest
to gain publicity, the reported testi-
mony is always contradictory. and
nearly always to such a degree as to
be Utterly irreconcilable. There seems
to be little or no regard for the
sancity of an oath; and yet with this
of instances of reckless
or wicked swearing one rarely hears a
word of reproof from the bench, AM,
to judge from the number OF prosecu.
tons. perjury would seem to be the
rarest OF crimes.
