Wanted: Better .uries

Let each of these be a man of high
intelligence and character. Have
them meet once a year to select Jur-
les, and pay them we'll for that work.
In this way, the very best men in each
part of the county could be selected
for Jury duty. The commissioner from
each township would nominate the
most capable men therein, subject to
the veto of the other commissioners.
Of course, under this plan all office
holders would be disqualified from
having anything to do with the choice
of venires.
The Piedmond would like to-
have all men of good character and
intelligence rendered liable to jury
duty, doing away with the present
exemptions. Except in cases of emer-
gency, there is no reason why preach
ers. doctors, newspaper men and
members of other professions should
not serve for reasonable time as
jurors.
No criticism of any particular set
of officials in any particular county is
intended when The Piedmont declares
that the jury system in South Caro-
lima is a travesty on justice. AS it is
now, when red handed criminal or a
civil case involving large amount is
to be tried, lawyers in the average
instance will exhaust every effort to
reject the few intelligent men of char
acter on the venire and will do all IN
their power to select in their stead II
unintelligent men whose character is
often doubtful, to put it mildly. The
state should not allow the lawyers
any option in such a matter. 1t should
not permit them to chose Ignorance
instead of intelligence. 1t should COM
pei them to choose a jury from men
of brains and integrity alone.
Has there ever been in South Caro-
lima a jury every member of whom
had the equivalent of a high school
education?
Has there ever been jury in
South Carolina every member OF
whom could be called a leading citi-
zen in his community?
Has there every been a Jury in
South Carolina of whom it could be
said: There sit twelve of the best
men in this county?"
Let the legislative delegation of
Greenville county omit no effort in
seeking to embody in the law Of this
state the substitution Of jury COM
mission for the present procedure
The Piedmont (Greenville, S. c.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-11-16

In its latest presentment the grano
inrv of Greenville county made this
forceful plea for jury reform:
sThe Importance of having the
hest citizens of the county serve up
on the juries, both petit and grano'
oon not he overstimated. We would
recommend to our delegation that a
commission consisting of five mem
hors he created by an act of the legls-
1a+,re if such should be constitution
81 for the purpose Of selecting tne
so.+ oi1izons of the county for jury
service
This is one of the best, most con-
..u,o+ivo suggestions ever made by a
Grand Jury in South Carolina.
If adopted, it would strengthen ana
npbuild the administration OF Jusuce'
because it would increase the conn-
dence Of the people in the verdlcts OF
inries Moreover, it would tend TO
nrevent those frequent miscarrlages
If instice which occur when artful
LAWYERS play upon the prejudices ano
nassions of ignorant, narrow anu
nraindiced Jurors. 1t would mean
that more and more of the guilty
would be punished, because there Is
loss likely to be rotten verdict or al
,niustifable mistrial in criminal
eases where the jury box is filled by
- inteliigent men of high character'
One narrow, illiterate, bony headeo
bnmnkin can now nullify the Judg-
want of Il men of brains and un-
necessarily cost the county thousands
of dollars.
Jurors al present are selected os
county officers. This system is wrong
No matter how free these otflcers III
some counties may be from being IN
fuenced by political considerations
officers in other counties may Dc
svaved by them. Politics and the ad'
ministration of justice have nothing
in common and should be divorced
absolutely. Even where the officers dc
their full duty, there are always those
who will impute political or interest
ed motives to them.
Far better to have juries selected
by commission, as recommended by
our grand jury. It could be composed
of five members. in accordance with
the suggestion made in the present
ment. However. Clerk Of Court
Harry A. Dargan Of this county has
suggested what seems to us as an
even better plan: Let the jury com
mission be composed of 16 men, one
from each township in the county

ENVIABLE RECORDS
MADE BY STUDENTS

Clemson College, Feb. 18-"ne de-
merit record of the crops of cadets
Of Clemson. college for the first term
of the present session is decidedly
the best in the history of the college,,
according to the records of the COM
mandant's Office and the registrars
office. The figures recently released
show that 81 students received ne
dement's, 30s students received only
one to 20 demerits. This means thai,
80.4 per cent. of the entire student
body did not receive over 20 demerits
for a period of three months.
Only 112 students received 81 to
dement's, 38, Al to 60 derherits;;
five received 81 to &C dement's, s.
being the maximum number which I
student may receive during the term
There was no cadet receiving dur
ing the term over &c dement's, so that
no Withdrawals from college were
necessary on account of excessive de-
merits.
This is a most creditable showing
especially when one considers that
dement's are given as punishment for
'ous technical military offenseA
nd it indicates that the student body
as a whole is a serious minded and
rderly set of young men. &,
