SCARCELY A SEWING CIRCLE"

Admiral Mayor is quoted as saying
that the peace conference is becoming
a sewing circle and that the pest
thing America can do is 10 create 4
powerful navy.
Evidently the admiral does not snare
the idealistic hope that wars have
ceased and greed Of territory and lust
Of power have been abandoned. He
seems 20 be looking forward to possible
trouble.
However the peace conference seems
likely 10 meet some very serious situa-
tions as it goes about its work. When
a division of an estate or the sharing
Of a bankrupt's assets by creditors
takes place the situation is always
ticklish. Peace conferences TO which
division Of spoil or Of Justly forfeited
territorial advantages are attached are
no different than a conference Of the
heirs TO an estate. And We all know
what happens over a will.
Japan is disturbed. The suggestion
is that Japan is insulted. That may
be more serious than appears to the
average understanding Of Japanese
character. Japan's pride is a more sen
sitive spot than her desire for territory
| and desire for expansion is the political
inspiration Of Japan. She seems to

srlAuus Hsasls AND AvISs.

Now and then We msse up with a
pioneer who recalls clearly the hang
ing Of a horssthief or perhaps helped
do the stretching in the old days when
horse theft was both common and
profita Bile. Nowadays We read with
interest OF q Sioux City protective
agency" that did a land office business
selling stolen automobiles, collecting
IRE losses on machines that were
never near FIRE and Damages for ac-
cidenfs that never occurred. II -
estimated that the crook picked up at
least SIC, 900 in hh operations.
The auto lends itself TO theft even
better than the horse used to do. The
thief can get so much farther away
with the auto. OF course this Is
neutralised somewhat by telephones
and tsiesraphs but the estimate is
that $500 900 worth Of autos have been
gotten away with within the year in
Iowa.
The old horse thief gang did a good
business. II was never more than a

HUNG JURIES.
Huntington Ha wkeye. I

A bill is before the Iowa legislature
looking TO the prevention OF Aung
juries." 1t provides that after Jury
has deliberated certain length Of time
without reaching a verdict, ten mem-
bers OF the jury can return verdict.
This applies only In civil actions. Ap-
parently the Iowa legislature is not
ready 10 go that far where mans
liberty is at stake.
The hung jury" is one Of the worst
OF the laws delays.
II generally means a retriAl Of civil
ca ses. unless compromise can b e.
fected before the case can again be
reached on the docket. and. in criminal
casee. the defendant many times must
lie in Jail eeveral months before he
can be placed on trial again.
In either case costs are multiplied.
There is the added difficulty Of k<sp-
ing witnesses together. Much valra-
BILE time is wasted by court and coun-
sci to say nothing Of the time Of it'll
gans and witnesses and jurors.
Frequently. it Is true. a jury il huns
by an honest man with the courage OF
his convictions. More often by q
merely stubborn or prejudiced man and
unfortunately. not infrequently by a
dishonest man.
Under the present system. one dis
honest, hribable juror can nulify the
efforts of eleven honest conscientious
men.
Every lawyer can recall instances
when he has felt confident in his own
| mind that at least one member Of q
jury has stood out against all evidence
and court instructions. Most lawyers
can tell of instances where they have
been convinced. in their own minds.
| that one Juror was deliberately dis.
honest but no Charges were-brouxht be :
\ cause there was not procurahls
evidence TO substantiate them.
/ The passage OF this bill would at
| least speed up the action Of the courts
and lessen the chances OF dishonesty
as well as reducing costs. Whether or
not there would likely be miscarriages
of justice as result, attorneys and
iurisss are better able TO say, but it Is
very doubtful If the arguments in favor
| OF a unanimous verdict, il carefully
weighed. will tip the beam against the
! arguments on the other side.

WHY Uvv Yvesl eAnIsnMlnIsP

Secretary Baker would buy all the
national army cantonments now under
lease to the government, He explains
that the investment In buildings and
preparation 10 so great that the gov
eminent should own them.
II would be easier TO understand il
we knew what the government wants
Of them and 10 what uses 1t would put
them. The mere matter OF investment
is an insufficient argument unless the
further Investment Is to protect 1t. II
we are to have universal military
training-which we are not--then the
ground should belong to the govern
ment and the cantonments be made
permsnent-which none OF them are az
collections Of hastily thrown together
barracks. But IL we have no further
immediate use for them why spend
more money on them or on our Hog
Islands7
When the present heads Of depart
ments get a little time they look
around for something they can Guy.
Thus Mr.. Daniels has been purchas-
ing radio with a liberality which con-
gress finds excessive considering the
fact that he asked congress for author
ity TO buy and was denied it.
Money burns in the pockets OF his
administration. \ surplus became a
deficit with the bewiIdering swiftness
OF an incarnation when "the rascals"
who had accumulated fine balance
in the public treasury were finally
turned out"
Experience however teaches. There
is to be no deficit this time if taxes
and bond issues may prevail and the
producers go on producing.
1t is time TO consider expenditure.
We were ready and willing to see
money poured out like water when the
occasion seemed 10 demand it willing
to overlook extraordinary and unnec-
essary costs in order tina, the jOL
might not fail: but there is now no Oc-
casion for this country TO spend money
like a munition maker on q spree or

an Iowa farm.
