Jury is a Mixed Body.

At Cos o'clock last evening, one
hour and five minutes after the ac-
customed hour of adjourning court,
the twelve good men and true" who
will pass on the Junkin case, were Sc
lected and instructed as to their con-
duct during the progress Of the trial
Seven farmers, three coal miners, one
teamster and one laborer compose the
jury, which except in the case of the
last juror selected, Frank Mccullough,
is unanimously in favor Of the in
Fiction of the death penalty for first
degree murder. The question of cap
ital punishment was not put to Mr.. Nc
Cullough, and he had formed an
opinion, but in the minds of the ex-
aiming counsel, Attorney j. M. Will
son for the state and F. M. Hunter
for the prosecution, he was of suf-
ficiently good timber to sit as the
twelfth member of the jury. The ex-
animation continued throughout the
afternoon, and despite the haste Of the
attorneys, the required number was
short three jurors when the hour OF
adjournment, o'clock, arrived.

offered to several American shipping

One reason why it is easier to get

there is always more freight for Eng

Pacific Coast than there are vessels to
handle it. Lumber, wheat, dried fish

Two British Golfers.

The two British golfers, Falls of
Orehy and Masunda, locked on oppo-
site sides of the No. 4 naval warf yes
terday afternoon about one o CLOCK.
They bring nearly $4,000 tons of coal,
between them, from Newport News for
the local naval station.
1t IS a very notable fact that the
two boats left Newport News within
twenty four hours of each other and ar
rived off port almost simultaneously.
The Falls of Orchy left on October 10
and the Masunda on October 20.
Although the two boats belong to
different lines. were built at different
yards, and are not related in any way,
they look very much like sister ships.
The smokestacks are the same height
and painted the same color and are
both in the same position fore and aft,
and both are strictly perpendicular.
The masts are stepped the same dis
lance from the bow or stern and the
poop and forecastle on each ship are
of the same height and have the same
distance of break between them and
the bridge deck.
Looking at the two vessels from a
point near the marine ways, it appears
as though there were but one vessel,
as the superstructures, tunnels and
masts all coincide exactly.
As matter of fact. the Masunda is
slightly the smaller vessel. The Falls
of Orchy is a trife longer and is
buffer in her entry than the Masunda.
With the same size engine, this prob
ably accounts for the Masunda making
up nearly day on the voyage.
Wireless Messages.
Kahuku wireless station reports hav-
ing been in communication with several
vessels during the evening. At eight
o clock the Korea was spoken. Captain
Sanberg stated that she was 1241 miles
from Honolulu in long. 1927 w, lat.

a slightly overcast sky and there was

eight o'clock. She was in fine weather
with very light southwesterly breeze.

from the Makura. The operator stated

land, she must have had some mishap
to her wireless installation, as other
wise, judging by the force of her pre-
vious messages, she should have been
able to communicate with Kahuku for
some days yet.
A Fairly Smooth Voyage.
Both vessels had a comparatively
smooth voyage, the only really rough
weather encountered being just this
side~ef Sandy Point, the halfway point
in the Strait of Magellan. For three
days there was a strong northwesterly
gale, and, although the two colliers
were not in sight of each other, they
both met with the same rough weather
and were forced to run at half speed.
The Falls of Orchy carries 5000 ton:
of coal and the Masunda 566s tons
The former is in command of Capt. T
G. Broome and the latter of Captain
Hendry.

A New Era for the Valley.

In any community more excitable than this-and what other community is not more excitable?-suc an i'm portant event as the beginning of service by the electric power line from Roosevelt to Phoenix would have been the occasion of a days celebration. Here, however. it was merely a part of the days work.
 Nevertheless, the installation of this electric service is an epoch marking event. over a line sixty miles in length, a line having Do superior in the world, electric power is conveyed from the great Roosevelt dam to the Salt River valley. Within a year various pumping plants in the valley will be adding thousands of inches to the supply of water for irrigation.
 The completion of the power line is next to the final step in the govern menfs vast storage project for the valley. The completion of the dam is but a year away.

PaternaI Uncle Sam.

The activity of the postoffice de- partment in looking after the morals of the people is one of the proofs of a steady tendency of the government toward paternalism. In Chicago-and presumably the same rule will go into force generally-the postal author ities have issued an order requiring every person who receives mail at the general delivery of the postoffice to give his or her real name, busi-' ness. and address This information is registered upon cards of identifi- cation which are filed for reference each time an applicant applies for mail at the general delivery window
 To the average citizen this order ought to appear entirely harmless. And that it has good features cannot be denied But in Chicago it is creating a considerable uproar among people who wish to conduct a clan destine correspondence. Parents whose children have been led into silly and secret correspondence will be espe- cially thankful to Uncle Sam. and they will not grumble at his paternal- ism.

A Forgotten Statesman.

The death of Col William R. Nor rison at Waterloo. Illinois, two days ago. had but scant space in the tele- graphic news of the day-not few telegraph editors threw it out for what they considered more important news. And it is probable that the average reader that saw the dispatch would have been at loss to fix the status of Col. Morrison.
 Col. Morrison was past S5 when he died-his birthday on the l4th of last month was celebrated at Waterloo by his intimate friends-and he had for so many years led life of com pIete retirement that the busy world had practically forgotten him. And vet. Col. "BilT Morrison was for many years one of the national lead ing the first Cleveland administration his name was more familiar to news paper readers than that of almost any other man that could be named. He was a member of congress most of the time from 1863 to 1887. He went to the front as colonel of the Forty ninth Illinois volunteers in 1861, and was a notable figure in the early days of the war. In the Mexican war he was a private. He was chairman of the house committee on ways and means from 1875 to 1877. and again from 1883 to 1887. As author of the horizontal bilI' for reduction of the tariff he was the central figure in the public eye in the eighties. His bill was beaten by a defection of democratic members. He was the foremost democratic apostle of tariff reform"
 Again, in 1885. he became ma tional figure because of the attention attracted to the contest before the Illinois legislature between him and Col. John A. Logan for the United States senatorship. Ballot after ballot was taken, during an exciting and trying period of three months, and finally he was defeated by Logan by one vote. Cleveland then appointed him a member of the interstate com merce commission, on which he served cl,s afr-r,a m of the commission from 1891 to 1897.
 Col Morrison was one of the most honest men that ever lived. That is the sentence which would most nearly do him justice as an epitaph. He belonged to that old school of Ameri- can statesmen of which sterling hon esty, extreme simplicity, and chronic poverty were the characteristics.

the United States (Mr Hornblower's confirmation was defeated by Senator David B. HID; De Lancey Nicol. formerly district attorney of New York City. and Samuel Untermeyer, who is famous for earning very large fees.
 Judge Hornblower is to defend a negro who is charged with shooting and killing another negro Mir. Nicoll will defend longshoreman. charged with stabbing a man to death. Mir. Untermeyer will defend an Italian woman. charged with murdering her husband.
 The law presumes that these de- fendants are innocent until they are proved guilty, and if they are con victed it will be after they have been defended by attorneys whose services would have cost thousands of dollars in each case, had the defendant been able to pay the fee. These defend ants. at least. cannot claim that there is one kind of justice for people who have money and another kind of justice for people without money.
 And Judge Hornblower MT. Nicoll. and Mir Untermeyer will not suffer in prestige because they leave their busy offices and their clamorous pay ing clients in order to take part in the distasteful work of defending pen niless criminals. for they will be do- ing their duty as lawyers.
 Nearly all lawyers of active prac- tice object to these charity assign ments, not only because they dislike criminal business, but because the compensation" given them by the state-if they are paid at all is so ridiculously small that their services are practically gratuitous.
