A oRTHY MOTIVE

George w. Perkins, for many years
connected with the great New York
financial firm of j. p. Morgan & Co.,
has resigned his position and states
that he will devote the remainder OF
his life to the study of sociological
problems.
The particular subject to which Mr..
Perkins intends to devote his time II
money is that Of profit sharing. This,
however, long ago got beyond the ex-
perimental stage, and is now recognize
ed as an equitable and satisfactory
solution OF the labor problem by those
firms that have given it a thorough
trial.
For the past thirty years the Pills
bury Milling company, OF Mlnneapo-
lis, Minnesota, has shared its pronts
with its employees, in addition to pay
ing the same wages as were PAID by
similar institutions. The amount OF the
net profits received by each employe
is graduated according to his salary
and length OF service. Inc result has
been that practically every man in the
employ OF the urn has taken a pro-
prietary interest in the business ana
mas gwen his best efforts to increase
the pronts OF the concern. During the
entire time mentioned there has never
been a strike or trouble with unions
ana walking delegates.
1t is probable that the Pillsburys, IN
inauguratlng this system, were not
guided wholly by phllanthropic mo-
tives, out rather by sound business
reasons. The absence OF labor troubles,
with strikes and l~ockouts, has enaDi-
ed them to conduct their business ev-
cry woring day in the year, which fact
alone a more han compensated
them for the ten or fifteen per cent OF
their net profits distributed among the
employees.

DUE JURY SYSTEM

It Is said that a quiet effort is be-
ing made throughout the state, or Will
be a little later, to secure preliminary
steps III the next legislature for an
amendment TO the constitution, where
by in the case OF trial by jury in the
courts conviction will be secured by a
vote OF NM or ten, except III the case
OF murder, when the unanimous vote
Of twelve WILL be necessary. Inls
movement is i u line with recent action
taken by the state Bar association OIL
California which has just declared for
similar changes In that state. Ihe re-
qulrlng OF unanimous vote OF a jury III
the ordinary cases That come before II
often works out to defeat the ends OF
JusIlce, to say nothing Oh the tremen-
deus expense often caused the counties
of the state in new trials and other
costs. There Is mucn sentiment III
favor OF some such action III Nevada,
but whether 1t will prove too progress
sive at this time is a question that can
only be determined by putting 1t up
to the Law next montn.-VIr-
ginia City Chronicle.
Our present jury system is as old as
Anglo-Saxon law itself. Any attempt
to amend it, particularly in SO tar as
it applies to criminal cases, will meet
with merited opposition. While, un-
der the present system, an innocent
man Is rarely convicted and a guilty
one frequently escapes punishment,
that is as it should be. Society is
abundantly able to protect itself
against thu criminally inclined, and 1t
is better tor q hundred guilty men to
escape than tor one innocent nan to be
convicted. Cases where one or two
men have hung q jury are rare, and
the cost of new trials in such events,
compared with the total expense OF our
criminal cour.s, infnitesimIL.
