OUR FARCICAL JUDICIAL SYSTEM

The strongest possible arraignment of the American
system of criminal procedure is the time and manner OF
securing jury in the Orpet case. The trial was called
May 15 "a days ago and jury OF twelve men has Just
been secured TO get them required the summOning OF
twelve venres and the examination of 1896 men as to
their qualifications 1t shows under Judicial system
what rifng will allow ju1yman to be set aside
and to what length attorney can go IN sorting the
whole country over until he gets jury that suits him.
Some day the American voters will awake to the utter
farce our judicial system is becoming and do away with it
entirely.
Reels of red tape and volumes of precedent oceans of
technicaes anG libraries of rules but justice an un-
known quantity.
1t provides one code of morals for the citizen and
other for the lawyers citizen who aids and assists
criminal in getting free and clear becomes under the
code party after the fact The lawyer who does the
same thing is all right.
Under our system we allow the defendant an attorney
at the states expense if necessary in order to insure h
fair trial. This is eminently correct Every accused
person has right to fair trial and to have his defense
properly made by attorney The trouble is this has
been carried the extreme and the attorney not salts
fed with seeing his client has fair trial. but even know
ing him guilty brings all his legal training to bear to clear
him despite his guilt He deliberately becomes acces
sorry after the fact in his effort to clear his client
1t is not the criminal law alone that has become help
essy entanged in of red tape and precedents but
the civil law is just bad Something will have to be
done to simplify and purify the ega! system, on
will not be long until this is made issue at the polls
Everyone supposed to know the law but they have to
employ an attorney to transact the simplest matter of
legal business and then it is not always correctly done
1t is a maze Of redundant language and wilderness
of distorted vocabulary. Cvilly, in making deed to
piece of real estate the grantOr grants bargains, sells
remses releases and quitcans before he make him
self ineligible to the law and crminaly, he wfuly
deliberately unlawfully and with malice afOrethought
assaults wounds and shoots with gun, pistol rearny
bundebuss or cannon then and there loaded with lead
en- iron or metal bullets then and there placed In SAID
gum pistol and all the balance of it, not forgetting the
powder or other explosive which propes the bullets
aforesaid.
If you would prepare to die and would make will you
must "give devise and bequeath and it goes through
the whole list The Orpet illustrates the farcica
side of it. Just imagine the Judge and attorneys clerks
and sherfs and the whole Judicial paraphernaia being
engaged for "a days selecting twelve men who were cap
able of acting as juIymen in such trial

ROOSEVELT GETS OVATION

Colonel Roosevelt was certainly given great ovation
in the republican convention yesterday when Senator
Fall of New Mexico concluding his nominating speech
mentioned his bedam broke loose 1t was the great
est longest and nosiest demonstration the only real
live outside of that given Hughes of the convention
1t however was not general expression of the con-
ventons sentiment but rather that of the admirers of
the Colonel who like their hero, noise makers
A young woman in gray and a gray haired woman
developed enthusiasm to the point of hystera and to the
general din added the tintnabulations of big
COW bell This was the Roosevelt side of it.
The real sentiment shown by the action of the old
leaders, and this not only showed the feeling but gave
ntmatiOn of the conventions Senator Harding
smiled and sat down to wait for the din to cease.
Hles sat biting his finger nails Smoot was rather
amused DePew quit joking, and Crane bated an
eye.
Uncle Joe Cannon remarked "the demonstration was
interesting but not important" adding: "If you will
look around you'll see that not 10 per cent of the
gallery is participating and not two per cent of the
delegates"
This however was the situation last night when this
was written. What the result will be will probably be-
told the front page of the Capital Journal Saturday
The fact that the Colonel got rousng ovation however
remains whether he gets more than that-or less.
