WOULD IT BE A BENEFIT.

Gov. Noel has submitted for the con-
sideration of the legislature the recon-
nendation that law be enacted enabling
petit juries to return verdict in Grim
inal cases where eight or two-thirds of
their number are agreed, regardless of
the opinion of the remainder of the body.
The governor is backed in the recommen-
daticn by resolution passed by the State
Bar Association at its last meeting favor
ing such law. To our mind, the benefits
that would accrue from such measure
are doubtful and the question entirely
debatable. The time honored custom of
granting a man trial at the hands of
twelve of his fellow will be
hard to break down in the minds of the
masses and in the selection of juries ow-
ing to the greater responsibility arising
from the fewer number necessary to a
decision. The apparently great need of
the Commonwealth in securing a more
efficient law enforcement, besides the
added cost of carrying cases from term to
term of court, because of some eccentric's
idea or because of some "sinker" secured
purposely to hang a jury seems Of suf-
fcient warrant to justify trial of the
new law, but we feel apprehensive that
this law would be dangerous because it
would be an experiment and an inno-
walton of sacred tradition and law prac-
tice that has led the liberty loving in
telligence of the world for hundreds CT
years. A spirit of progressiveness in
spires many radical changes, but innova-
tons are always dangerous, unless clearly
shown to be advantageous.-T allahatchie
