HARRISON IS
CHOSEN MAYOR
Heads Chicago City Government
for the Fifth Time

Chicago. April 5.-Carter II. Hsrri.
son was elected mayor of Chicago for
the fifth time. He defeated Charles
e Merriam, Republican nominee, by
. plurality of 1862. Along with MT
Harrison were elected the other can
didates on the Democratic ticket
Henry Stuckart was elected city treas
urer and Francis D. Connery was re-
elected city clerk For the first time
in twenty-five years both the city and
Cook county administrations are in
the hands of the Democrats.
The defeat of Merriam and Harri-
sons victory may be aScribed TO a
variety of causes. The bad weather
prevented the casting of as large a
vote as was expected and this was
considered a detriment to Republican
candidates. "Kniiing" and the lack OF
cooperation in the Republican organi-
cation with the Merriam campaign
also were charged with having 4 large
share in the result.
Instead of the 100000 to 375, 900 to,
tai vote predicted for the five mayoral
~ candidates only 100000 went 10 the
polls. Instead of the 80 per cent Of
the 42l 900 registration that had been
expected with fair skies less than SO
per cent of these eligible 10 vote cast
their ballots, There were some so ,000
Chicago men who did not vote.

Mex, April 5--A declaration that all

dent Diaz refuses to resign and that
the recent cabinet changes at Mexico
City have served only TO convince the
insurrectos of their ultimate success

of arms in the overthrow of Diaz."
In all Northern Mexico, he said, the
insurpecto movement was spreading
until now the federal troops were con-
fined to the garrison towns. lat which
the iRsurrectos were preparing TO
strike decisive blow"
Referring to his father. and Gustavo
A. Madero, his brother, who were re-
ported to have initiated peace plans

of ending the war, the insurrectionary
president intimated that they had no
authority to act for him and he would
not accept any proposals which were
not directly either TO himself or to DR..

OLD CRIMINAL LAW. .

When Prisoners Counsel Was Not Al.
lowed to Address tho Jury.
1T seems hardly credible that less
than century ago counsel were not
allowed to address q jury in defense
Of 81 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 q prisoner, unaccustomed to
marshal facts and unable to speak,
against skilled counsel, whose sole
purpose for it's own reputation was to
win q case. Sydney Smiths eloquent
words led to the passing of the pris-
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 mon
ey. SO many unfortunate prisoners
died in Newgate through this that Al
derman Brown, lord mayor in 1888,
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 a tale from Ireland. The
prisoner was hard TO satisfy. aud jury
man after juryman was asked to leave
the box. However, all things come to
an end, even in Ireland. and at last
the swearing Of the jury was conplet-
ed And then the prisoner leaned
over the dock and sought the ear Of
his solicitor ''The jury's all right
now, | think" he whispered, but We
must challenge the judge. I've been
convicted under him siviral times al
ready, and maybe he's beginnin' to
have prejudice ~. Ond0n Chronicle.

Modern Clubs Do Not Play Same Sys.
tenn as originators.
No play in baseball is made a mess
OF more than what is known as the
hit and run" The originator of this
system Of play had in mind an action
which would ordinarily assure the run
ner Of advancing and at the same time
increase the chances Of the batsman
of getting the ball into safe territory.
1t was played with this in view by the
old Baltimore team, but nowadays the
only time it is successful is when the
batsman makes clean base hit.
When playing the hit and run the
batsman is not supposed to swing hard
on the ball. He should shove it through
the place which either one Of the in
fielders has just left in an effort to
cover the bag for which the base run
ner has started. yet nowadays one sell
