That tie was short lived, the
Brownies humping Acosta for a tally

perished SEVERED dropped a Texas
Lacquer in right center. Palmcro
fouled to Shanks. Then Tobin
crashed a two-bagger to the open
seats in left center. SEVERED raced
around on that wallop, putting his
team ahead before Gerber flied to
Miller.

In the eighth. with one out, Rice
poled a safety to right and sprinted
all the way around when Bing Mil

STANDING BY THE PARTY

There is a touch of pathos in Mr.. Hardings
eulogy Of party government in his address to con-
gress, followed by the war secretary's defense of
boss rule before meeting of insurance men two
days later 1t is evident that the present heads of
the government feel that the party is not being
stood by as firmly as they would like.
The trouble, they will find, lies largely with
the leadership of the party, or. we might say par
ties, since the Republicans have no monopoly of
party troubles. A political party is agent OF
progress only to the extent that it represents
school of thought and the machinery for making
that thought effective Neither of the great par
ties today fully qualities under that head.
The Democratic party, however, does stand, in
a general way, for political philosophy. 1t has
noble traditions and its name connotes noble
principles 1t is still the possessor of citadel
around which its forces can rally, if they will But
the Republican party, as such, stands for no
sistent doctrine There is no such thing in this
country today as Republican thought, or Repub-
lican sentiment as distinguished from mere loyalty
to the organization
Bv what, then, does Mr. Weeks and MIR.
Harding want the people, and especially the mass
of Republican representatives IN congress to
"stand?" Simply the men higher up-the lead
ers. The individual Republican is not required to
support MIR. Harding because he believes IN the
same principles. because he does not know what
principles MIR. Harding believes in; but because
Mr.. Harding as president elected by his party
must be trusted to do what is right.
This is not party government at ALL 1t IS per-
sonal government Of the rankest kind. 1t trans
fers initiative responsibility from the people, where
it belongs, to set CT men who ought to be serv-
ants of the people 1t makes subjects OF citizens
and autocrats of officers.
That is why party loyalty is waning and party
government discredited The people as a rule
cling to the old notion that they the masters,
and when set of men in authority go against
their wishes they either thwart them at the time
or turn them out at the next election.
If the present administration will forget Its plant
about decay of the party spirit. try to do what
the people want done instead of trying to make
the people gulp down bindly what they want to
d. they will be stood by on their merits, by the
American people regardless of party. If they fail.
they will find it hard to rally enough support about
the mere name of Repubicansm to save them.

THE JURY SYSTEM

Our present Jury system was designed for
state of society widely different from that which
now. exists. The population was divided into
classes. There were mobiles, who oppressed the
people, and whom the people hated here was
a GaddIe class, which enjoyed special favors by
faSang on the nobility and assisting in keeping the
peaSantry down. There were the peasants. whose
function it was to do all the work, support all the
upper tiers Of society, and live what those above
thea left Naturally there was not, and there
could not be, any common bond of sympathy
among the classes.
The jury system was a means OF class protec-
ton. Trial by jury of peers simply meant
that the fact of guilt of baron ought to be found
by other barons, rather than by representatives OF
class which might find him guilty through pre-
iudice, 1t meant that member of the lower
cIaSS--charged with some offence against the gov
eminent, or what was almost equivalent some
messaaber of class higher up. could not be tried
and convicted until the fact of guilt was ascer-
taitfd by jury Of his own class. In that state
of Society the jury system was bulwark ct liberty.
But we have no legal distinctions of classes.
One man is as good as another, in this country
especially if he has as much money. All citizens
are peers in law A banker gentleman of
leisure, soap vender and common laborer may
all sit on the jury to try, man tor muir
der or pig stealing. IN S$, &ey are his peers
and if they come into theTpanel viii sufficiently
open mind, they are all equally eligible.
The purpose of law should be to secure justice.
If the time has come, many thoughtful people
agree that it has, when the safeguards which under
fopaler conditions were necessarily thrown around
theiury system, operate to defeat rather than pro-
mote justice, then a new system, adapted to pres
ent.needs. should be devised A jury should be
intelligent, fair minded, sufficiently educated to
comprehend the intricate questions of fact raised
in rails and in sympathy with the principles of the
lavH
What more can anybody demand9 What less
could anybody accept3 Yet, it is not commended
anywhere that our juries conform to this Standard

Some new method, which will utilize fitness and
bring to bear the same degree of intelligence in
passing on the facts that we demand in passing
on The law, is imperatively demanded. Florida,
having seen the ncurable imperfection of the pres
emit system, has a chance to assume the leadership
in securing something better.

HISTORY is BUNK
On. E. A. Editorial.)

n ii
History is all bunk, Henry Ford is quite right
says Prof L. Kirsopp Lake of Radcliffe college
HIS idea is that history is an important study
only in its relation to presentday life Also, that
history is bunk if taken merely as succession of
events without showing that history repeats and
that the present is the result of past causes.
History cannot be studied in sequence because
it isn't written that way. Important links are
ignored History is nothing but song of praise
for the military destroyers
Do you know who invented the dynamo, the
railroad locomotive or the wheel? Either of
these three is 1000 times as important as the
battle of Waterloo, yet most histories ignore
them.

HERE'S HOPING

! hope the nations may decide to junk the i'm
Elements of might, and scrap the battleships that
ride the waters, spelling for fight; for such an
outcome we have cried since this great confab
doomed in sight The great world war has done
its worst, but still remain its wounds and smarts;
for peace we hunger and we thirst, for long calm
years of useful arts; but if we'd have it men must
first scrap evil passions in their hearts. Oh, we
may sink ships at sea, and turn our swords
to pruning hooks, and mold shotguns
they'll be acceptable shepherds crooks, but
man will find a snickersnee if he is bound to
scrap gadzooks. Disarmament's a noble plan,
well worth the highest statesmens while, but
it must be also-ran, and carnage still must be
in style, until we rid the heart of man of hatred,
jealousy and guile. If he can't have battleship
with which to soak the measly foe, he'll heave
boulder from his hip and haply lay a dozen low,
or he will let the arrows zip on deadly errands
from bow. If he can't send out poison gas, or
train big guns on yonder camp he'll take a
ragged pane of glass, or brain the foeman with
a lamp; hate to say it, but, alas he's just that
sort of ratified scamp! So we must scrap un-
worthy hates well battleships and guns,
throw them forever from our gates with broken
lances, tons tons; and then for the Great
Peace waits, to last while there are stars and
suns.
