LEGAL TECHNICALlTIES.

The following editorial from the
Saturday Evening Post is such "A well

prints it in full:
Last Jane the American Institute
of Criminal Law sent two law pro-
fessors Dean Lawson, of the Uni
verslty of Missouri. and Edwin II.
keedy, Of the Northwestern Univpr-
sity England for the purpose Of
studying judicial procedure there at
first hand. The professors spent four
months attending sessions 0 + the
criminal courts in London and ON
circuit. and have made IL report
showing that we are about century
behind the country from which we
took our proce lure.

the Indictment 1t begins, "This
question, which plays such Il wrighty
part in our criminal trials, is of no
Importance NV in England.' be-
cause no mere technical defect is con-
sidered. Contrast this with the re-
cent decision Of the state supreme
court by which the conviction of il
man for a revolving crime that is Of
ten avenged by lynch law was set
aside because the article "the" was
ommitted from the Indictment. Com
menting upon that decision, a former
president Of the state bar association
truly said: "IIad Il mob assembled
to lynch the fiend in this case and
had appeared to plead with them
to let the law take it's course they
would have said, 1--WE have no re
spect for law which put the article
'the" in sanctity above our wives
and daughters. by another re-
cent state supreme court decision the
conviction Of man for stealing
hides was set aside because the in
dictment failed to show what kind of
hides he stole. Recently, too, in New
York Il conviction for murder was
taken to the court Of appeals because
the indictment did not say that the
victim was ''h II IN an being"
Though that plea was Oyerruled
there. it has been successful else
where. Everybody knows the shock
ing barbarities of our criminal pro-
cedure as contrasted with that of
England, from which we originally
borrowed. Intelligent lawyers know
them better than anybody else. Why
is this effort to reform them so feeble
and hating?
