MURDER TRIALS IN HOLLAND
Dutch Judge Puts All the lnterroga.
tories to the Wltnesses-
Not Have Jurles,

A learned and capable jurist has as.
serted that the French method of legal
procedure. which. contrary to our own,
presumes an indicted person guilty un-
til he Is proven innocent, comes near
er dispensing actual Justice than our
own system. But in Holland the courts
have, in some respects, a better sys.
tenn than that Of the French. The &C.
cused in every case has the benefit
Of the doubt, and circumstantial evi.
dence as the only foundation for q
plea Of conviction is in disfavor.
The Dutch do not have juries. and
there is no battle of wits among coun-
sci. All questions. whether by the
prosecution or the attorney for the
accused, are put to the witness
through the judges after he has
weighed the Justice Of the interroga,
ton.
This feature Of their system has
some pronounced advantage over our
own. It eliminates the practice Of
confusing the witness or the accused
by misleading questions. It renders
impossible the abominable practice In
our courts known as the "browbeat.
ing" Of witnesses, which unfortunately
is permitted to an extent that causes
the intelligent observers blood to boil
at times because of its unfairness and
cruelty. It makes the solemn business
Of dispensing justice a common trade
instead Of a heavenly vocation.-Sioux
