WHENCE THE DOLLAR7

Some days ago at the suggestion of
Mr.. c. c. Langston. this paper inquir-
ed as to the origin of the custom Of
the jury in each case giving 81 to the
party in whose favor verdict is rem
dered. Mr.. j.. 3. Lewis stated that
tho custom ie as old as this nation,
and came about through the wish Of
the fortunate litigant to zee that the
jury received refreshments.
Mr.. G. Fl. Geiger, the United States
referee In bankruptcy. cites that this
is not only custom, but law. He
does not know where it originated,
but 1t was enacted into law on Feb
ruary l4th, 1891. and is found In Vol.
V OF the statutes at large. on page
154. The act is signed by David Ram
say, president OF the senate and Jacob
Read. speaker Of the house. It comes
under the head of an act ito establish
salaries of the public government and
for ascertaining and regulating the
fees to be taken to those who by law
may be entitled to them: and among
other things 1t provides ITO the Jury,
IN each cause tried. five shillings"
This has been the law since then
and down to today, for Section 4.O41
of the code of laws Of 1912 says:
"The jury in each case tried in the
court of Copmon Pleas shall receive
one dollar from the party In whose
favor the verdict is rendered, to be
taxed with the costs of the action"
So far. SO good. Now we would
like to hear If anybody else knows the
cause OF passing this statute.

Good men are slow In announcing
for the legislature In many counties
in the state. The legislature offers
few attractions for a man of affairs
Il man whose success in his own bus
incss would promise success in man
aging In part the states affairs.
The time of year Is unsuited.
Courts arc in session and lawyers
who know the laws and its defects
and Its needs, are busy in court. For
them 10 go to the legislature would
mean sacrifice Of clients, for the
future. Merchants as rule rarely
take enough interests in politics than
to do more than vote.
1t Is to the farming class that the
people have generally looked for their
Legislative representatives. Aside
from lawyers. the farmers are the
best informed people in the country.
And their views are generally un-
colored and usually for the interests
of humanity as whole. and for law
and order.

The Times Demand Good Men

In sending men to the legislature
the voters should inquire several
things they tit morally, are they
suited temperamentally, are they
suited TO become useful In the general
ASSEMBLY, are they men who can be
trusted, can be relied upon, are their
views clear OF prejudice, are their
ideals high, are their purposes unset.

Every person who owns real estate or
who proposes to buy real estate
should endorse the Torrcns bill. for II
gives title that is guaranteed for
ever. with no more lawyers fees.
Such bill has been on the calendar
OF the legislature for two years. but
Ilhas always been misunderstood.
The To: ems system proposes once

fees and will guarantee the title. No
lawyer will do that now.
AS matters now stand. every time
lawyer has to go over tile same
ground that was gone over the last
time the land was sold or mOrtgaged.
And every lawyer SO doing gets his
fee.
A writer In The Progressive Farm
er OF Raleigh. y. c.. says: II WAS
looking up title last week. Il. traced
the title back To 1890. had to read
some 20 deeds and examine about 40
mortgages; investigate judgments
against six individuals; look into the
settlement Of two estates, and see
that the taxes had been paid for 20
years. A year ago this same land was
mOrtgaged. Some attorney did then
just what I did last week. Year be-
fore that, this land was purchased by
| another man. Again a lawyer had to
go over the same ground suppose
Investigations of the title to this lot
had cost all told about 5000 and 20
| days time. The tax valuation of the
lot was less than $1,000. In other
| words. probably one-fifth of the tax
value OF the land had been spent in
title investigations.
What the Torrens system pro-
poses is to close up the past; to go
| over the title once for all, and to put
an end to the expense and waste of
time required by this eternal process
sion of lawyers going over the same
beaten path. each taking fee for his
work. One lawyer will not and should
not take another's statement of title;
but any lawyer will take the states
or county's judicial assurance of title.

that the state or county shall employ
lawyer to look up titles. and so far
as possible clear them OF question

Bryson Patton has been regar : ID
as one OF the south's chief contrilu-

his letters were greatly enjoyed. Mr..
