c judge who feels his nature outraged
by crime, even the most heinous, so to
conduct trial as to avoid errors in
the construction of certain baleful
statutes which ought to be swept from
the pages of our legislation"
These are eminent opinions. Now
what are the facts? Twenty-four years
ago the abuses here under view had
already become so fragrant that a COM
mittee was appointed by the American
ter, and that committee reported that
ON the average new trials were granted
in As per cent of all the cases brought
under review in appellate courts in
this country.
Consider for moment what this
means. 1t means that out of all the
hundreds Of thousands of actions, civil
and criminal, brought in the courts of
the United States, every other one
| roughly, of the cases which were ap-
pealed were reversed. In other words.
a defeated attorney had merely to
make out a bill of exceptions and er-
rors and carry the case to a higher
! court, and it was a nearly even chance
that the verdict or Judgment Of the
lower court would be upset.
SUpposing now, what for the rest Of
it is inconceivable, that these revers
ais represented a just conclusion in
each case, the meaning of these re
versals would have been that on the
average one-half of all the trials in al
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-12-08

Last year in New York city the
grand jury considered 119, and
there were 40 convictions-one in
four.
In 10 years 1,161 murders have
been investigated by the grand jur-
ies-probably but little more than
half of the actual number done-and
there have been 3S2 convictions. Say
one in four or five.
In Chicago last year there were
202 murders reported; one was
hanged, 5 sent to prison, 1S6 went
scot free. This is nearly nine out of
ten.
Yet the courts of New York and
Chicago represent a high average
far above the rest of the country.
In Texas the editor of the Journal
of the American Institute of Grim
inal Law estimated there have been
over 1000 murders in the last two
years. There were 1,04S indict
ments.
In Dallas county alone there were
Sc murders in one year, % indict.
ments, one cOnviction-sentence five
years.
In Harris county 81 murders; two
hanged.
In Tarrant county 40 murders
none hanged.
And these are fair samples. II

the states Of the whole country were
in their outcome unjust and wrong!
Could there be more monstrous i'm
parchment of the intelligence, the hon.
or and the probity of our primary
courts?
Whatever may be the degree of
corruption of these courts, whatever
may be the sinister influences, subtle
and intangible, which often influence
their decisions, we know, for the most
part, they constitute body of men Of
relatively high character, as decent
and honorable as the average man.
The implied libel, then, upon the pri-
mary bench was in reality directed to-
ward a system, and not against the
men
The same report of "a years ago
found further that in 60 per cent of all
appeals the cause turned wholly upon
questions of pleading and practice, and
| in only 40 per cent of the cases was it
question of the right or justice of the
verdict. In other words, it was simply
| a question of miserable technicalities.
These were the conditions in 1887,
as described by a body of high-minded
| lawyers, reporting to their own asso-
citation. Now witness the splendid re-
suits of the reforms they endeavored
to introduce
In the address of Judge Amidon,
already quoted from, that worthy
said: 81 have recently looked into
this subject with respect to seven rep
resentative states of the union and
find that the conditions reported to
the Bar association have not improv-
ed, and, on the contrary, have in
some respects grown worse"
/ Judge Amidon added: For the
purpose of comparison as to whether
this condition is necessary evil,
have examined the law records OF
England for the period from 1896
to 1900, and / find that all of the
cases that were brought under re
view on appeal in that country, new
trials were granted in less than three
and half per cent"
In the same tenor, Hon. e.
3iSDCh hotbB oPCohth6 OOlOlO tus
American Political Science associa
ton In 1910, stated that: THE Cour1
Of Appeals in England, acting fol
100000 people, grants, on tn,
average. only about IL new trial
per year."
So far as the Court of Crimina
Appeal is concerned. it is not per
mitted by the law of England t,
grant a new trial in any case what
ever. Reversal of the yerdicts of
lower court means that the convic
ton is quashed and Judgment o
acquittal is entered. it is needles
to say that In England such a re
versal is extremely rare.
In the state of Kentucky, MI
McDermott found that in six months
of 38 cases appealed by defendenat
convicted of crime, II were reverse
nearly one half. OF these 3
cases, 49, were for murder and 81
were reversed. In only one of tn
10 cases aIarned was the penalt

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-12-08

stated that 5 per cent of the cases
appealed to the court of criminal ap-
peals were reversed.
And here is a fair sample of the
cases:
One Walter Hickey shot and kill
ed Tom Dickson, near Haskell, Tex
! as in 1908. He was tried no less
than six times. Two of the trials re-
suited in disagreements of the jury;
in the other four, convictions were
| obtained. Three times the life sem
tence was imposed, and once term
of imprisonment for % years. Each
time the court of criminal appeals re-
versed the conviction, and finally the
prosecuting attorney gave it up as
hopeless, and said that it appeared
to be impossible to conduct a trial
in such way as to meet the require
ments of the reviewing court.
And here Is another:
One Grantham was convicted OF
burglary. The Indictment charged
/ that the crime was committed in a
certain house occupied by six persons
named therein. But the evidence
disclosed the fact that this house was
occupied by only the five of the per-
sons designated. The court of ap.
peals held that this variance between
the allegation and the proof was fat
al, and the conviction was therefore
reversed!
Is it any wonder that under such
conditions Texas justice" should
j become byword and that this judic
ialial scandal should be a subjec
|, even of party platforms, and that il

ernor Campbell should urge sweep

(By Carl Snyder. in coliier's)

(By Carl Snyder, in Collier's.)
Some measure of the utter failure
of criminal justice in this country
may be gathered from the following
fact:
A simple calculation suffices to
show that:
There are more than 100000 muir
derers now living In the United
States of whom more than three
fourths have never been imprisoned
for their crimes.
In the last issue of Golfers / en-
deavored to show that the estimate
of 5000 to 5000 murders annually
in this country was under rather
than above the mark. This has
been true fer more than Is years.
The age of the average murderer
is under 80. and probably not over
20. The average expectation of life
for a person alive at 20 is 3S years
The majority OF all murderers are
professional criminals, which means
that they are for the most part tn.
berculitlc, syphilitic, or otherwise
diseased. A considerable part do not
outlive their crimes 10 years.
II we take 10 years as an average
for the whole number, then, at the
rate of above 5000 murders pei
year, the estimate of above 100000
now living is low. Not many mel
kill more than one person in thei
lifetime.
Now as to the failure of the law.

''The people and the press of the
state are protesting against existing
conditions and have the right to ex-
pect relief at the hands of your hon.
orable bodies. The technicalities
and high sounding, ornate, literary
nonsense now obstructing the courts,
encouraging crime, delaying civil
and criminal trials and defeating
justice, should be swept away by

this done, the bar and courts could
be reduced, instead of increased.
and criminals could, be more speedily

have always looked forward to some
such helper as Mordecai. Every one
who knew the late DR.. Heral recog-
nized in him just such a type of a
man, who could speak his mind in
the presence of kings on behalf Of
his people. And there may come a
time when even the Car or the King
of Rumania may have to defend him
self in presence of some representa-
tive Jew.
Thus the book of Esther, besides
being an interesting story in itself,
has roots deep in Jewish feeling and
Jewish history, and it gives some
thing of the glow of romance to the

DANGER OF EXTREMES.

"The late Bishop Whitaker" said a
Philadelphia clergyman, had very
little sympathy with ultra-high church
leanings.
"a young divine once said to him
at a Lenten lecture:
Bishop, suppose I should burn a
few patilles during service, do you
think anything would happen?"
Bishop Whitaker smiled dryly,
and, passing his hand down his white
beard, he answered:
"a good deal would happen, my
young friend Your congregation
would be incensed, your vestrymen
would fume, and it's more than likely
that you yourself would go up in
smoke"
