EVIDENCE AND ossTINAcy.

If the juror swears to abide by the evidence" says
the Worcester Telegram, 'and base his conviction of
guilt or innocence upon it, there is no fault to be
found If he refuses to be swayed by the opinion of
his fellow jurymen- When, however, n jurywoman picks
up a paper in the jury room, turns a chair to the wall
and announces that it is her intention to keep on vot-
ing guilty till hell freezes over that she will not dis
cuss or give reasons for her conviction though her
eleven fellows, having heard the same evidence, draw
conclusion Of innocence from it, the proposal to have
1uries' verdicts determined by majority vote takes new
aspect.
MANY are the cases where the jury was hung by
enc juror who believed firmly in the innocence of the
accused; rare indeed are those where it was hung BY
juror who is convinced of the guilt. The former stu
alton has in it element which has made it favorite of
hction writers. The latter, as in the Arbuckle case,
rouses question. Most jury verdicts are reached by
compromise, but when the foreman of a jury issues a
statement that the prosecutions case was an insult
TO the Intelligence of the jury, there is further in
ability to understand the reason for the hanging by
refusal TO even discuss the case, look at the exhibits,
or consider the evidence in the jury room.
"Al that is to be said of the Disappointing outcome
OF the TRAILS that Mrs. Hubbard, having heard the
evidence, made up her mind Arbuckle was guilty, and
that the rest, under like conditions, made up their
minds he was innocent, and that the law requires a
Jury's verdict be unanimous"

quoted says that this credit business was done with
advantage 70 the stockholders 1t might also have
said just as t~ruthfuly that IL was done with advan-
tage to wage-eamers- Without that surplus the con-
Germ would not have been able TO extend credit; there
would have been fewer orders for locomotives; con-
struction Of locomotives would have been eurtailed and
the workmen would have been thrown out Of en-
~ployment Instead of that. the locomotive works were
operated on credit orders and the men received com
pensation at very slightly under war time vIg-s-
It is pertinent to remark in this connection, that y
this locomotive organization had been operated on the
Plumb plan. with control by the workers, there would
have been no surplus built up. The management Sc
lected by the workers, DESTROYS of currying favor with
the workers by making monthly incomes as large as
possible, would have distributed the surplus in the
form of wages or bonus. The internal politics of the
management Of a large concern whose managers are
selected by the employees would have forced the dis
tribution Of all the profits leaving no surplus to be
utilized in time of financial depression
Frequently in the past few months we have had to
suggestion that industry be kept moving BY extend
ing credit" But II credit is to be extended, there
must be someone to put up the money to meet the
weekly or monthly payroll. Money to meet a pay
roll when credit is to be extended can be secured only
through a surplus-the surplus of the concern itself or
money borrowed from some other surplus. The facts
in this case ought TO impress the minds of all those
who look upon an accumulated surplus as an evidence
Of criminal prohteering. There Is virtue in a surplus.

A SPAWNED srEED.

The sad truth is that in the Reputation of the
Versailles treaty the American people lost credit
throughout the world" Those are the words of one
Wickham Steed, a London editor in attendance on the
Washington conference, whose articles are being ex-
Iensiveiy copied IN the American press. 1t would be
difficult to conceive a statement more at variance
with the truth. The American people never sub
scrlbed to the Versailles treaty, hence they could new
er nave repudiated it The only occasion on which
they expressed a formal opinion on that document
was in the elections of last year when it was rejected
by a majority of 1000, 900 votes. The utterauces of
Steed arc but an example of the mental pabulum that
is being offered thA American public bv scores NJ for

WHY BE wRoNo7

Ignorance of plain propositions is only too otter
exhibited by metropolitan journals from which We
would expect better things. As witness. the position
taken by the New York Journal Of Commerce:
"One definite and important result of tho Amer
lean valuation plan, IL put into operation, it is feared
might prove to be discrimination by the United States
against the goods Of countries against which the
valuation plan is not directed. Further, the products
of other countries proposed to be subject to the heav-
lest penalties under the valuation scheme might find
entrance into the country with impunity because of
deprecated money values and disturbed exchange
conditions"
But the proponents of the American valuation plan
point out that there could be no such discrimination
of the nature suggested inasmuch as the valuation
plan applies to the goods themselves. An article i'm
ported from each of three countries, say Great Bri-
tain, Germany end Japan, would be compared to a
similar article Of American manufacture whose whole
sale price WAS determined. II the American whole
sale value was So and the duty on the imported article
was so per cent, this duty would be applied to the
imported article on the American value basis, SO that
no matter whence it came it would pay so per cent
OF So or 81 duty. As for the factor of deprecated
money values, it seems probable that congress will
find a way to take care of that through a system of
sliding scale duties, which might also cover other ad-
vantages possessed by competing countries over our
own.

THE VALUE OF SURPLUS.

If the Lenins and Trotskys and their fellow boil
shevists in the United States had any reason they
would butt against some rather hard facts in a recent
statement of the Baldwin locomotive works. Accord
ing to that statement that concern sis in strong fnan-
cial position notwithstanding the large amount of
credits extended during the past year. Ability to
weather business depression with such satisfactory re-
suits to stockholders may be attributed to the enter
prise and foresight of President Vauclain who utilized
his large surplus to get business on a deferred
basis. :"
AS everybody knows, there was a great depression
IN various lines of manufacturing industry due to lack
of orders The lack of orders was not due to lack of
demand but to lack of money. A concern that was
in a position to extend credit could get orders and
this was dore by the locomotive company mentioned.
The company had built up a large surplus out of net
earnings and, to use a common expression, kept this
surplus for use ION a rainy day."
The Lelins and Trotskys and their bolshevist friends
in the United States do not believe in SURPRISES. They
would have the government conhscate not only the
surplus but the capital itself. Many others who would
not entirely coufscate the capital or all of the sur
plus would. nevertheless, impose an almost confs-
catory tax which would leave a corporation without
surplus funds or which to extend credit during de.
preston.
1t may be noted that the locomotive statement

RATES IN SIGHT.

Prompt action on the part of both the Railroad La
Dor Board and the Interstate Commerce Commission
promises early solution of the problem of lower
freight rates. The railroads want lower rates, as also
90 the Shippers, but under a system which gives the
government control over both rates and wages there
cannot be sound action upon either without action
upon both. The great fault in the McAdoo regime
was that the great political manipulation of the VIII
son administration increased wages without making
corresponding increases in rates, thus nearly bank
rupting the roads. These matters are being looke/
alter IN a business-like manner by the Republican ad-
ministration.

other industries as well. The cheap foreign product
VIII be sold in America only as low as necessary to
kill the American industry. When American producers
are driven out of business, the price Of the foreign
product is raised as high as can be done safely. In
