I'm dismissing the petit jury OF
the November term Wednesday.
Judge Hamilton spoke extemporane-
ously upon the purpose of the jury
system OF the courts OF the United
States, says the Fl Madison Demo-
crat. He stated that Lee county was
given to free discussion of the ex-
pense Of the Jurors in the local dis.
trict courts and that often the real
value of the system was not appre-
ciated. The right of the jurymen, ne
explained, was second only to the
right OF the ballot in the fundamen-
tails of American citizenship and In
| terpretation of the laws of the land
and their application. HIS remarks
with the greatest appreciation.
