Not So Much Trouble With Jurors.

Pleas by prospective jurors who APP
peared in both divisions of the dis
trict court this morning for service, to
be excused were neither so numerous
or so insistent as usual. For one thing
it is a month later than the Septem-
Der jurieS ordinarily are summoned,
and farm work is well under way.
OF course there were a number of men
who urged the judges to let them off.
But more of them We're business men
than farmers who pleaded for release.
The trouble is that the pay of jurors
is grossly inadequate for the average
man hardly being a good wage for
day Iaboring, and those who have sat
on iuries are willing to admit that the
wark is rather hard, although the
hours are short. Jury service is not
one that appeals to the ordinary busI-
ness man or farmer, even though he
had nothing else to demand his time
and attention.
