A SUMMING UP OF OUR JURY
SYSTEM

Now that the rest of the news
papers have concluded the argument
for and against the system of trial by
jury. The Herald assumes the role of
Judge and decides as follows: The
system is all right. 1t is the manner
in which it is carried out that so often
results in the defeat of justice. AS
originally contemplated, man has
the right of trial by a jury of his
peers, that is, his equals in social
standing and intelligence. No man
should be permitted to serve on a
jury unless he be of good character
respected by his neighbors, possess
ed of a common school education, and
regularly engaged in some legitimate
occupation. Paupers, loafers, va
grants, ignorant persons and those
who do not have the respect and es-
TEEN of their neighbors, should by
no means be permitted to serve es
Jurors. Put only men of intelligence,
character and responsibility on juries,
and we shall have no more miscar-
riages of justice as have heretofore
resulted from the jury system
Another thing; the number of chal-
lenges allowed the defendant in
criminal cases is beyond all reason
and should be reduced fully one-half.
AS at present managed, 'the defend
ant can select a jury composed
wholly of men of his own selection
This is a prolific cause of judicial
farces. Aspirants for election to the
legislature should earnestly study
this subject and endeavor to formu-
late and secure the enactment of a
law for the enactment of the jury
system along the lines suggested
above.-Punta Gorda Herald.

MODERN POLITICS

In the investigation now going on
in Milwaukee over the election Of
Isaac Stephenson, which he admits
cost him over one hundred thousand
dollars, the following evidence was
given in fervid detail:
State Senator Paul o. Huskins, who
was with Morris, a witness, testified
that he overheard Writ Cook of Du-
luth give the details about the alleg-
ed relations between Hines and
Shields, two important witnesses in
the investigation.
Cook said he obtained information
about dispute which Shields and
Hines had had over the amount Of
money that ought to be paid Shields
for buying Influence"
''The understanding" said Cook,
was that Hines had gone to Wash.
ington and told Stephenson that mon
ey would be needed to put over the
election. Shields was employed to do
the putting over
Then, when the work was done
Shields demanded his pay for it.
Hines said he'd send Shields to the
penitentiary if the latter insisted on
demanding $4,000.
Then Shields replied to Hines:
I've burned your, bridges for you
bribed your assessors and committed
every crime on the calendar for you
and, you bet, if l go to the penitenti
airy you will go, too"
If the election of other senators
were investigated similar damaging
evidence in all probability would be
unearthed. The election under the
primary system is costing too much

PHILADELPHIA WINS WORLD
CHAMPIONSHIP FOR 1911

In Philadelphia yesterday the sixth
game for the world championship was
played, and it was the last of the Sc
ries, as Philadelphia had little trouble
in defeating New York in a one-sided
game. Score Is to 2.
The opening inning looked good for
New York, but good beginning made
very, very bad ending.
Bender was sent in to pitch for
Philadelphia, and well he was, for he
was at his best, and he faced his op-
ponents with much ease, and allowed
only four hits, while his team mates
secured thirteen hits and as many
runs.
The score by innings is as follows:

LABOR UNIONS APPROVE RED

AT the last annual convention 81
the American Federation of Labor. a
resolution was adopted, calling CT
all the members of the federation to
further the sale as much as possible
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas, the American Fedora
ZION OF Labor has, in every possible
way, aided the movement for the
study and prevention of tuberculosis

Whereas, the American National

on the war against tuberculosis, and

Resolved, That the American Fed
Grafton of Labor give it's endorsement
to the movement of the American Ma
tlonal Red Cross, and encourage its
members to further in every reasona-
bic way the sale of these seals in
their respective communities"
There are now four special meth
DDS by which consumptive working
men in the United States are being
cared for. In such cities as Albany,
Elmira and Binghamton, N. Y, the
unions support a separate pavilion or
hospital. In cities like Hartford,
New Britain and South Manchester,
Conn, the workmen contribute to-
wards the maintenance of a fund for
the care of consumptives. The en-
ployers also contribute to these funds.
There are also two national sanatoria
for the treatment of tuberculosis own
ed and operated by labor unions; one
by the International Typographical
Union, and the other by the Printing
Freshmen and Assistants Union. In
Massachusetts,, Illinois and elsewhere,
large corporations and manufacturers
have agreed voluntarily to care for
all their consumptive empolyes for a
limited length of time
But as long as consumption kills
one in every three workingmen be-
tween the ages of fifteen and forty
five,' says the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tu-
berculosis, more education, better
shop and home conditions, and more
hospitals are needed. Red Cross seals

CAT MASCOT FOR eLIDDEN

Mascots are seldom carried on the
Glidden tour, but this Glidden has
one and it is novel and interesting.
DR.. w. M. Stimson, of Jacksonville,
owner of several motor cars and a
veteran driver who has competed in a
number of racing events on the
Ormond and Atlantic beaches, de-
cided to compete in the Glidden and
feeling that he should not break the
sequence and drive any other than a
Cadillac car, in as much as ten of his
fellow-townsmen had decided to drive
that same car, gave Claud Nolan, an
order for new 1912 Cadillac. and
take his wife and couple of friends
along for the journey.
Mrs. Stimson tells that a long
chance was being taken with brand
new car, never driven by the dotcor
until the morning of the start, and
so looked around for a good omen.
On Broadway New York. she spied a
little, tiny might be better, black kit
ten and that she appropriated for a
mascot, feeling that its life amounted
to little in the rush of Broadway any
way The kitten was given a berth
of honor in her lap and when the
question of feeding it came up she
purchased a bottle and now the lit
tie Broadway waif rests comfortably
day after day in her lap and feeds it's
comfortable life away
Ultimately, the kitten will be given
a place of honor at the Jacksonville
office of the doctor, that is, providing
the brand-new car makes it's way in
success and perhaps, even though it
should fail for any reason. This the
doctor does not look forward to.
The Floridians have taken fancy
to the little black bundle of fur and
may decide to adopt it as mascot for
the entire fleet of ten Cadillac cars,
all brand new and all representing
the Everglade state in the great con-
test. Every one of these cars were
shipped from the factory at Detroit
to New York to take part in the con-
test and every one was driven by its
owner in the contest and not by
chauffeurs.-Atlanta Journal.

FANS WOULD BE PEEvED
If it Carries They Can See But One
Game on a Holiday, for Foreign
One Are Far From
Home.

Central Association schedule No
ss9, which was sent out yesterday By
President NJ. Z. Justice for adoption
will never pass muster if Secretary
Louis Sterne of the Keokuk Associa
ton can help it. From Keokuk
standpoint Sterne says it's the poor
est chart submitted.
This afternoon Secretary Sterne
mailed a circular letter to every club
in the circuit in which he pointed out
why the schedule was not only a
weak one for Keokuk, but for the
league as we'll.
keokuks kick is by no means
groundless and can be told in a few
words. To begin with the holiday ar
1sngement for This city is crime.
Keohuk is given one holiday-tha
one Decoration Day with Muscatine.
Now, Decoration Day is observed in
keokuk every, year, and the CITY is
about the only one in the circuit
where such observance is held. The
date is the poorest of three holidays
that could be given to the indians. On
the Fourth Of July the club goes to
Muscatine-another unsatisfactory ar
rangement. If keokuk had the game
with Burlington or even Hannibal,
fans who wanted to see baseball on
the holiday could make the trip. On
Labor Day the club goes to Ottumwa.
It can be readily seen that Keokuk
fans can only see one holiday game,
and that with Nuscatine, with whom
no rivalry exists.
Again. Keokuk promises to be a
good drawing card on holiday dates,
because the city will be more or
less in the limelight during the build
ing OF the dam Fans want enter
tainment on these days and the di-
rectors want the attendance. A big
attendance may help Keokuk if there
is ever redistricting. and some
changes may take place in 1912.
keokuk opens the season with Ke-
vance. Fans will go to an opening
with any club, but one of the rival
cities would be more interesting.
Two holidays are given to Ottumwa,
Hannibal and Kewanee.
These cities are by no means the
strongest.
Keokuk has one Sunday at home
with ottumwa, Hannibal, Burlington.
Monmouth and Kewanee and two with
Muscatine and Galesburg. On the
road Keokuk has two Sundays with
and Monmouth and one
with each of the other clubs.
The schedule mentioned is reyis-
ion of the one recently voted for by
the clubs.

ROCK ISLAND, ILL.,. March 90
Z H. Sexton, president of the Nationa
Association of Minor League Clubs
has returned from Auburn, n. Y.
where he was in conference with Sec
rotary Farrell of the National associa
ton, and states that the board of ar.
bitration is preparing an official de
cision on the Three-I controversy,
which decision will be made public by
Secretary Farrell within day or
two.
Mr.. Sexton today said that the Ma
tionai association will render YER
dict on the Three-I fight this week,
but he refused to make forecast as
to what 1t will be.
The decision when given OUT he
said, will be made public by Secre-
tary Farrell at Auburn, N Y. When 1t
is made known either party to the
controversy. will be at liberty to ap-
peal to the national commission, and
for my part shall have no objection
to the higher base ball court review
ing the case. From information |
have Waterloo is willing to waive
the protection of Judge Gridley's in
junction and allow its case to rest
entirely with the base ball authori-
ties.
The charge that I. as an interested
party, have delayed consideration OF
the Three-I case by the National asso
citation. is false. On March IS I serv.
ed notice upon the waring factions
that unless they settled their differ
ences | should ask that the case be
taken up.
THE claim that the southern fac.
ton was turned down by the National
association is misleading. Secretary
Farrell first heard from the southern
members last Thursday when he re-
ceived telegram asking for permits
sioc for the four southern clubs to
withdraw from the Three-I and form
a near league bearing the same name.
An immediate reply by wire was re-
quested, but as decisions on matters
of this sort are not given offhand, no
answer was given then"
