Excuse Jurors For
Certain Reasons
Without Reportino

A new way Of summoning and ex-
cusing Jurors, which was suggested by
Judge Clarence Nichols. has been put
in operation by Clerk OF Courts 8. H.
Reilly n Sheriff ]. G. Edgar. Instead
OF; compelling jurors who have valid
reasons for excuse reporting to the
court, and then being excused. hut be-
ing paid for the day and for their
mileage by h county, these jurors are
nov excused by mail.
The new blank summons that has
been printed for this purpose, con-
tatns q space in which the person sum-
moned is expected to give his reasons,
II he has any, why he can not serve.
II these reasons are good and suffi-
cient ones. he is excused by Deputy
Sheriff Charles Henry. The statuatory
grounds for excuses are:
ANY person holding office under the
of the United. States or the state
OF Iowa; all spracticing attorneys. ply
sicians, registered pharmacists. clergy
and dentists; all acting professors
or teachers of any college, school or
other institution of learning; ali per-
sons disabled by bodily infrmities or
over IS years Of age; all active MEM
bers of any fire company, or my per-
son who is conscientiously opposed to
acting az a Juror because of his re-
ligious faith and any person may also
be excused from serving on a Jury
when his own interests or those OF the
public will be materially injured by his
attendance, or when the state Of his
own health, or the death or sickness Of
a member Of his family requires his
absence from court. No person IS
competent as a Juror unless an elector
Of state. in full possession OF the
senses Of hearing and seeing Inc who
can speak, write and read the English
language"
These causes for excuse are printed
on the lower part Of the summons and
the Juror Is not expected to ask to be
excused unless his excuse is one Of the
several listed.
Just now the new plan is being tried
for the first time. Eighty Jurors were
summoned. Thus far forty-four have
not asked to be excused. Others have
been excused for one or more OF the
reasons printed above. Under the old
plan those thus excused would have
reported to the court at the time sum-
moned, and would then have been ex-
cused but the county would have paid
each Of them $3.50 and 10 cents a mile
for the distance each Travelled.
