New Jersey has adopted a law which permits a jury to find verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree without capital punishment It is cOutended by those who are opposed to the aboishment of capl ta punishment that the statute virtually means that very thing They contend that a skiful attorney will usually awaken enough sympathy for his client among jurors to get them at least to add that clause to a verdict of guilty. Supporters Of the measure argued that the circumstance that jury could find guilty and save his life at the same time would result in more convictions for first degree murder. and less ac quittals and verdicts for secOnddegree murder and manslaughter where the greater crime was really committed.
 Both are probably correct and enlightened thought Of the day win generally agree that the objection that verdcts of guilty will contain the lifesaving clause is a point in the new laws favor.
 The New Jersey statute. not better than the complete abolishment of capital punishment is Che next best thing to it.

 The gains of commerce in Seattle and the Puget Sound districts are beginning be reflected in tho commercial and industrial life of this city in such objective ways as to be apparent to even the super ficial observer. There is greater field of employ ment a growth Of population, a stimulus to local buying and a new volume in local real estate trans actions Our growth in commerce has been steady over the years. promising permanence but the gains of the past five years have exceeded all former rec ords of progress
 Tn the last nine months the gross value of the foreign commerce of this customs district aggregated approximately S1650oOO00 For the fiscal year ending June 30 1t estimated that the total will reach S2lV oOOOOO as compared with total of $1100OOOOO duv ing the previous fiscal year nearly one hundred million increase in one year. Including both foreign and domestic commerce the Puget Sound district, ac cording to the nine months of progress, will show total water-borne commerce of more than SSOOOOO- O00
 In the last calendar year this district exceeded San Franclscos total foreign commerce by SllOOOOVO At the nine months rate of increase our commerce this year will exceed 1t by at least SS5,OOoOOO
 The promise of the future is even greater than the performance Of the past Our need is more ships if VIC are to carry the traffic that is in sight New steamship lines are preparing to meet this need
 Past progress present conditions and assurances of future gains are of our continuing pros uerlty We not only have the opportunity at hand. but we have the Idle capital to make the best use of It. Seattles condition and prospects today assure realization of every ambition that it's optimistic cit- zens have long cherished for 1t.
