RussIAAIsM IN: AN
!. AMERICAN COURT.

a feature Of the trial of Mrs.
Mooney for murder in San Francisco,
says the New York. World, was the
presence in. the court room Of two
unofficial juries." One of these was
! constituted OF men representing the
!, labor unions;j the other OF, women.
Z The women pronounced Mrs. Mooney
/ innocent ut once. but 1t took the labor
jury half an hour or more to, reach the
same conclusion. incidentally, It may
he mentioned that the sworn jury con-
ridered Hts gefdlct for anyone hours
before agreeing upon acquittal.
The case grew out Of the bomb ex-
plcsioH q year ago when prepared
ness parzdelwas passing through the
streets, ten persons being killed and
forty wounded. Partly because sus-
picion was fastened upon men prom
inent in radical pacifist circles, the
prosecution found Itself snyoiyed with
labor politics. Mrs MONEYS hus-
band was convicted end sentenced 70
DEATH but owing to the impeachment
of important witnesses for the state,
q stay was ordered and hts case is
nov before the supreme court.

The Holt County sentinel., 1917-08-24

Columbia, Mo-. August "a, 1917
Dcmocracics are dependent upon mu-
tual understanding and trust among
all concerned. These qualities Of un'
Outstanding and trust can develop
only after q period Of acquaintance
shin and this must be the outgrowth
Of friendly intercourse, which, In turn,
may be hindered or entirely cut off
by difficulties of travel. II seems
logical, therefore, to believe that bad
roads have an influence directly and
harmfully on the permanency Of DEM
ocratic institutions, according to Dean
T.. J. McCaustland, Of the University
of Missouri engineering school.
The early New England town meet
ing was u source of inspiration and
strength to democratic ideals. As the
country developed and the population
spread into the West, the solidarity
of interest among the people was
broken down on account Of difficult
ties Of travel, and the town meeting,
as an institution, passed away. The
telephone and the motor car have
done much to bring back . realiza-
ton of common interests, and In no
way can the cause Of democracy be
more permanently advanced than in
making easy the possibility Of travel
and interchange Of ideas. No idea
is of much value unless It can be
communicated to others. The isola.
ton of farm life must be eliminated
by the continuous development Of
road building programs that will fin
ally enabel the people to get togethe,
easily.
