OLD CRIMINAL Law.

When Prison.fs Counsel Was Not Al.
lowed to Address the Jury.
1t seems hardly, credible that less
than a century ago counsel were not
allowed to address jury in defens,
Of prisoner. Sydney Smith first
preached against this cruel law.
He pointed out that, while in any
court where property was concerned
counsel was heard on both sides, in a
court where human life was trembling
in the balance only the prosecuting
counsel was heard. and it was unfair
to match a prisoner, unaccustomed to
marshal facts and unable to speak,
against skilled counsel, whose sole
purpose for its own reputation was to
win a case. Sydney Smiths eloquent
words led to the passing Of the prts-
oner's defense act 1920, which alter
ed the practice. !.
Another unjust practice which was
peculiar to the Old Bailey was that
when an accused person was acquit.
ted he was obliged to pay the fees Of
Newgate or go back for want of inon-
ey. So many unfortunate prisoners
died in Newgate through this that Al.
derman Brown, lord mayor in 1883
caused an order ,of the court to be
made that when any accused persons
were acquitted by their country they
should instantly be discharged in
court without, paying any fees what
soever, an order which has been strict.
~ adhered to ever since.
OF the challenging of Jurors one re-
members n tale from Ireland. The
prisoner was hard; to satisfy, and jury.
man liter .juryman was asked to leave
the box. However, ali things come to
an end, even in ireland, and at last
the swearing Of the jury was complet-
ed. And then the prisoner leaned
over the deck aud sought the ear Of
his solicitor. "The jury's all right
now, I think" he whispered, "but ye
must challenge the judge. I've been
convicted under him siviral times al
ready, and maybe he's beginnin' to
have a prejudice."-London Chronicle.

BOARD Of CONTROL IDEAS

! The conference Of the heads of edu-
cational institutions and representa-
lives" of boards of trustees. held at
the Masonic grand lodge library, in
Fargo, issued the following statement:
The. conference was an. adjourn
ment of the one held early in Decem-
Der at Valley City. The general feel
! ing of the conference was that it's at.
| titude On the matter of the board of
control had been misunderstood. The
conference In no sense attempted to
pass upon the ACCESSIBILITY Of gen
eral board for penal and charitable
institutions, but did reiterate it's be-
lief in the unwisdom of such board
for the educational institutions Of the
state, because in the matter of gov
eminent there would be no economy
in the board Of control method over
the trustee system now in vogue in
the state as shown by the experience
of other commonwealth. Still fur
Their it was felt that a dead level OF
efficiency and individuality Of institu-
tiOnal growth was sure to follow the
establishment of q board of control
regime for educational institutions.
The problems of too many institu-
tons cannot be comprised and clear
ly considered by single board even
though paid one. The experiences
also of other states where the board
Of control for educational institutions
has been tried have not given the re-
suits expected over the system now In
vogue in this state On the contrary,
they have been q positive damage to
the institutions, holding and checking
their growth as. shown in the history
CT South Dakota, Montana and even
of Iowa. In our neighboring state,
Minnesota, the educational institu-
tons were removed from the jurisdic-
ton of general board of control
after four years of trial.
Not Eliminate Politics.
1t was also pointed out that board
of control for educational institutions
would bring the institutions into poll

DISTORTED FACTS.

The Los Angeles Examiner OF re-

New Years fire at Bismarck, and stat
ed that the entire business section OF
the city was wiped out by $4,000

enjoyed by the citizens of Bismarck
prior to the first of IT,, year has
aroused the envy of the Californians.

It was felt, however, by the confer
,ence, that educational institutions of
the same character, doing practically
the same kind of work, such as the
normal schools, might be placed un-
der the same board.
Before adjournment the conference
authorized the appointment of COM
mittee consisting of Presidents Nc:
Vey, Worst, Mcfarland and Smith,
and Messrs. N. c. Young, M. 3. Cas-
sci and D. A. Dinnie, to prepare an
extended statement showing in detail
the attitude of the conference on
some o. the more important educa.
tional problems in North Dakota, in
GLIDING the question of a board of
control for educational institutions.
The conference instructed the COM
mittee to isue this statement, in addi-
ton to the one now presented, at an
early date, so that the people of the
state might have the fullest informa-
ton upon the question involved.
The conference also decided to
meet quarterly, and the next meet

Good Roads.

The article on Good Roads which appeared in the last issue of The Times, attracted wide notice, and several citizens have received letters from various and sundry persons and places applauding the enterprise and the interest being taken by our citizens.
 Copies of the paper have been sent to interested parties in St. Louis, Little Rock, Memphis Marion, Wynne, and elsewhere, and there is but one answer-we will help you.
 It is now only question of putting the funds and labor promised. to work on the proposed roads, and plans for doing this are now being formulated. It is great undertaking, requiring the most careful and intelligent judg- ment, so that the available assets may be used to the best advantage, and for the greatest good to the greatest number
 The idea is to put the old Military road in first-class condition from this county to Memphis, it already being in fairly good condition from that city 10 Blacktish lake. and to connect it with the proposed Good Road from St. Louis to Little Rock and Hot Springs, which is proposed To come by way of Forrest City.
 All this is primarily an automobile road, but to be a good automobile road, it must likewise be good any other kind of road, and it will be of vast importance and benefit to the farmers in hauling their cotton and other produce to market. It in fact means more to the farmers than to any other class. and they should and no doubt will lend to ii their full, free and most earnest cooperation.
 Futher proposed details will be published ill this paper from time to time as they are formulated. and any suggestions or plans that others may have for the good of the work, if they wish them published.

That editorial in The Times recent ly about the need of new Rock Island depot, or change in the old one for the better, met the hearty ap- probation of the public, and, we hope, the officials of the company. It was written with the kindliest feeling and good will, and in the utmost sincerity, with the hope of impressing upon the minds of these same officials the real necessity of it, and their obligation to their patrons and friends here. Be cause they are seldom here, and when here are always in the greatest hurry and pressed for time on account of a great multiplicity of other duties, we fear they have not taken note and dc not properly understand and apprec. fate the real condition and affront which their present conyeniences really are to this same public. It therefore.becomes our duty to again re. mind them of it, and beg of them to give us such proper and reasonable relief as may seem to them just anG respectful We have the utmost faith in their ultimate good sense and fairness Please take this tt heart.
