1. WILL WE ABOLISH JURIES?
Sat The English law was founded on
the trial by jiiry system and the plan
- has been in operation for six centur
* ies. This in itself speaks of the mer-
K its of the plan. However, in this day
when there seems to be a growing ten
dency tt> change everything, we find
much discusinn and many suggestions
4 pointing to a change that would abol
■ ish the jury system.
The Richmond News-Leader in dis
cussing this matter points out that in
the five Richmond homicide trials that
have attracted most attention since
1922. the average time required for
t completing a jury was two and one
half days. In three of the eases it
was necessary to send out of Rich
mond to get a jury.
Evasion of jury service by hundreds
of those summoned, opposition to cap
ital punishment and the forming of
opinions by reading the newspapers
' , were some of the difficulties in the
way. The News-Leader is impressed
with the mouutal of Maryland’s ex
' perienee without juries, as set forth
by Judge Carroll T. Rond in Am
erican Bar Association Journal, which
it summarizes as follows r
The practice is on old one in Mary-,
land and can be traced from at least
1693. A prisoner may elect trial by
jury or trial before the judge without
j jury. During 1924 nine accused per
sons in ten preferred to take the ; r
chances with the court. The percent
age so electing has not fallen below
/o’ TO hi many years. A trial of this sort
usually takes only one-third as long
as a jury trial. The practical result
in Baltimore is that two criminal
fc courts are able to serve the entire
' eity of nearly 800.090 people. Some
/ > times only one court is working. A
p’ single jury panel is kept in attendance.
and the members of this not infre
-o puently complain that they arc lees to
kiek their heels in idleness, waiting
: for someone who wishes to trust his
; • fate to them. "It is ordinarily poiwi
. ble.” writes Judge Bond, ."to give trial
gl ’-without any delay beyond such time
gft: as may be necessary for preparations.
K .and there are times when the court
(I; seems too close on the, heels of the
[P grand jury, when the court is prepared
p to give trial on the day after indict;
meat." At the January term. 1925.
the two courts had a docket of 1,500
pie cases and disposed of all these except
ip 177. Most of those that wore not
heard were those last docketed.”

RrAAtte are many reasons why I’ied-

p’ conservation of our wnter supply.

Mpsi&£ater power developments, which
irnvii'rf 'if “ North < Caroli
na with their electric power, will have
ife to bo abandoned. That would deprive
H||j| section of one of its greatest re-
Bfewfatrces and would eripple in no uucer-
} The more timber we cut, the less
, water We have in our streams. This
fact has been proved by testsmnd it is
t a fact that many streams in western
. North Carolina now are not more than
half as wide and as deep as they were
30 years a|o. The change has been
f brought about by tbe cutting" down of
s: the forests. At the present rate of
- work we will have no real virgin for
ets in western North Carolina within
another ten years. Mie must conserve
■ these forests at any cost.
This is just one reason the propos
ed park should appeal to our people.
We should, of course, be interested in
the project as loyal North Carolin
■ ians for although none of the land is
located in Piedmont North Carolina,
the State cannot reallyx prosper until
- every section is willing to boost every
other section. Cabarrus county will
. be asked to subscribe to the fund be
) ing raised for the purchase of the
) park and it is hoped the'local fund
J will be quickly raised. This is a man
j ufacturing center and the conservation
of the water supply in the west is a
i question of vital interest to this sec
■ tion of the State.

New York. Jan. ll.—ls there is
any vital weakness in the construc

den too deep to be detected by any

■ actionary sentiment makes its ap
pearance from time to time, and is
more or less in evidence at present.
Speculative interests, disappointed
at the failure of the market to de
velop breadth and strength at once,
and too impatient to await the grad
-1 ual action of legitimate influences
are credited with having liquidated
: their scanty holdings and having
. lined up again on the short siile.
Such action only contributes to the
health of a situation as a whole and
insurex that any stimulum to the
desire to buy will be more effective/
There is no suggestion of any pres
sure from cotton from any quarter,
and trade advices, both foreign and
domestic, indicate that business is
steadily gaining momentum. Con
sumption i.s large and the necessity
for substituting lower grades as far
as possible grows constantly more
obvious, and is reflected in the firmer
basis for cotton of that sort.
If rumors prove to be based on
fact, a large part of the local
stock will be moved out by the cad
of the month as it is far cheaper

Congress and the Mellon Monopoly
New York World.
The scene now shifts to Capitol Hill.
There it will be determined in the
next few days whether the Republi
cans will permit a thoroughgoing in
vestigation of the Mellon Aluminum
Company and its relations With the
Coolidge Administration. The World
has now established the .reasons why
, this iurestigation is necessary.
We repeat the reasons:
1. The Aluminum Company of Am
erica is a great monopoly largely own
ed and'wholly dominated by the Sec
retary of the Treasury. Mr. Mellon,
and his brother. Although Secretary
Mellon ceased to be a director when
he took office he retained his interest
and place <m the board was kept open
for him pending his return to private
life. Secretary Mellon has from his
office in the Treasury accepted respon
sibility for the Aluminum Company
by publicly defending it.
2. This trust has been twice charg
ed during the period of Mr, Coolidge's
Administration with violating the taw
—once by the Federal Trade Commis
and once last January 30th by the
then Attorney the.United
States. Mr. Stone.
3. The evidence collected by, the
Federal Trade Commission in support
of its charge is now locked up in the"
files of the Federal Trade Commission.
By a vote of the three Republicans
who constitute the majority of the,
commission this evidence of lawbreak
ing is withheld from the Department
of Justice.
4. The Attorney General. Mr. Stone,
who accused the company was short
ly thereafter displaced. While this
may have been a coincidence it is now
established that the man who replac
ed him. Mr. Sargent, is prepared to
give very speeial favors to Mr. Mel-
THE EVELYN THAWS
Salisbury Post.
That Evelyn Thaw should come to
the point where she would take her
own life need surprise no oneffi no oth
er end would more fit the life she has
lived. The woman began In girlhood
to live the fast life and through the
the shadows of the underworld she
wandered more or less all her days.
It is a pathetic story and a shmifeful
one.
No word of reproach should be
thrown at this woman without laying
full blame on the man who caused
most of her sinning. Young and pret
ty she was the playing of leacherous
men, chief among these being ;he two
who played such tragic part ; in the
life of the woman. The man who
was killed for her and the man who
slew on her account.
The world is cruel with a woman
of this "type, perhaps too cruel in its
judgment; undoubtedly the first stone !
should be thrown by him who is with
out fault. What can be done to bet- j
ter the life conditions of such a one?!
Can anything be done? Can the jaw |
be made to help her? Can society, the
church reach out to the Evelyn Thaws
and save them from themselves and
others who would debauch their lives?
We do not know. But we do know
that the world is not charitable enough,
forgiving enough; the world will not
forget: the stone-throwers are busy,
for they have no one of master mind
and purity of life to directly dial-!
lenge them. And if there were such I
a one? Would they heed? The One
who gave permission for the faultless
to judge found none in His day who
could, and there be none today. Yet
the stones fly.
Evelyn Thaw had ample of support
anil encouragement to enter the deep
and abiding shadows of sin: but did
she have a faithfully presented aid
and comfort, love and sympathy suf

5. His willingness to give special
favors is proved ky the whitewashing:
statement issued at midnight Saturday
so that publication might coincide
with the first article issued by The
World. This - midnight statement,
prepared, it now seems certain, after
conferences in, which the President,
Secretary Mellon ami Attorney Gen
eral Sargent participated, was an ex
traordinary document. It virtually
announced that three weeks from now
when the department's inquiry is
completed Mr. Mellon's company is to'
be whitewashed by Mr. Sargent’s de
partment. The 5,000 pages of evi
dence of lawbreaking in the Trade
Commission’s flies are not even being
considered in this whitewashing.
" These are the nllegat’pns on which
•The World bases its demand for a
searching investigation. We chal
lenge any one to deny these facts or
tq denj that on the basis of these
facts an investigation is in order.
In establishing this case Thy World

task. We turn our attention now to
Congres.'for it is on Congress that the
duty rests of summoning the actors in

necessary now to record the action of
, Congress in dealing With the resolu
tion introduced by Senator Walsh. We
shall find out in the course of the
next few days whether the powerful
desire to sheild Mr. Mellon's company
which prevails at the executive end of
Pennsylvania Avenue also prevails in
Congress.
It prevails quite plainly in Sena
tor Reed of Pennsylvania . For It

blocked unanimous consent for Sena

SYNOPSIS
Saltonstall Cabot Adam, haltti % on
Long Island by a State Trooper, con
vinces bins that the strange garb he is
wearing is a masquerade costume he
had worn the night htfore in Stam
ford, Conn. He had left Stamford
suddenly to search for Connemara
Moore, whox he hopes to marry, but
mho disappeared. Connie, her Aunt
Celimena, Sweetie and David Lacy al
so are all on Long Island—following
a night of wild adventure, but are
about to set out for Stamford.
CHAPTER XVll—Continued
Aunt Celimena bowed deeply.
"‘You qualify, Mr. Lacy, but unless
I mistake myself I just heard you
say that you would be forced to
leave us in order to go over some
private matters with your friend
McTish. I believe that’s the name
you mentioned.”
“It's the name, all right,” Lacy
agreed. He hesitated, then turned
to Connemara. “That sort of puts
me in a hole,” he said to the girl.
“I really ought to check in on Mac.
As the advertisements say, there’s a
reason. But don’t for a minute
ihink you’ve seen the last of me. In
(act—and I might as well go on re
cord in front of this charming
group of witnesses—you're going
lo see so much of me that some day
you're going to say. ‘Dave, my dear,
V>n’t you really think a man and a
Oman ought to get away from
«.h other for one day after forty
cars of married life, however hap
l)y those years ’ ”
“Sayt” yelped Sweetie and jam
med her eJbow into Connemara's
side. “Didn’t I tell you that guy
was a fast worker? He begins
where the others leave off.”
”1* that to?” growled Bing. "Now
listen here, Connemara ”
‘ls that so?” growled Bing. “Now
I'stcn here, Connemara ” •
But the girl herself, who was
staring blankly into David Lacy’s
burning eyes, suddenly laughed.
“And which way do you want me
to do my hair?” she said.
“Any way,” said Lacy. “Wear a
pink wig, for all I /care. By golly,
you could wear a pink wig.”
And Celimena raised her hand.
“That will do, Mr. Lacy. Perhaps
you have never heard that person
ilities are seldom in good taste. If
you will secure us a car ”
“I’ll drive it,” said Bing.
“And I’ll oil it,” said David. “I’ll
oif it and gas it and water it and
inst it, and presently I’ll follow it
In a sonfewhat faster car— and after
that I shall simply let the splendid
discriminatory powers of Miss
Moore do their natural work.” Sud
denly he wheelejl to the girl, and
his eyes grew soft. "Eventually,
why not now?” he pleaded.
“At the fifit sign of rain. pnt on
four chains,” said Connemara sol
wnnly.
Lacy grinned. “That one is aged
In the wood,” he returned. “Still,
the health doctor. Just
she same, I’m going to be the lucky
one in five. That’s the insidious
thing about me. And I, know,” he
bowed, “that you’ll accept no sub
ititutes.”
Connemara's eyes were twinkling.
‘Make good on the car,” she said.
“I’m asking the man who owns
Mie.” N
“Good kid,” said David Lacy
warmly.
Teh minutes later Bing, his eyes
furiy, was driving One of Lacy’s
tars down the smooth road to the
Bayvillc ferry. In the seat beside
him sat Sweetie. Behind them hud
dled Aunt Celimena and her niece.

"Take that swaddling band ofl

. presently. “I don’t like it. And it
s looks silly.”
t But Connemara only smiled. “Nol
- yet,” she said cryptically.
* At the ferry house Aunt Celimend
1 suddenly observed in a perfectly
1 natural tone of voice: “Why,
t there’s Saltonstall! Isn’t that odd?
■ Ask him in, Constance Mao'.”
1 Connemara’s eyes followed her
' aunt’s. “Oh, merciful heavens!”
she gasped. "Poor old Salt! Td
forgotten entirely that he was in
fancy dress. Oh, Auntie, look
how he’s skulking along, as if he
was ashamed of himself. Oh, I’m
’ sorry ft>r him!" A sudden twinkle
i flicked into her eyes. “No, I’m not.
| H*e’s funny. He’s the funniest thing
I I ever saw in all my life.” And
, now she began to faugh.
“Look, there’s Salt,” announced
, Bing'abruptly from the front scat.
I “Look, Connemara. I wonder how
“My goodness,filing, are you col- :
or-b!ind?” Connemara gulped out.
“Good Lord, for the last half mile.
Tve been staring ahead at that red
thing and thinking to myself, what
a funny-looking gasoline pump! Oh,
Bing, go over and grab him before
he commits suicide or something.”
Bing leaped out of the car, grasp
ed the astounded Saltonstall by the
arm, and led him back amid the
chuckled plaudits of the ferry-house
crowd. '
“Oh, Mama,” shrilled a tiny girl,
“there’s Little Red Riding Hood’s
daddy! Look, Mama.” /
A queue of admiring small boys
swarmed after the red-clad young
man in somewhat the manner of a
tail escorting a flaring comet. “Get
out,” blared Bing at the small boys.
They withdrew to a safe distance.
Then Sweetie spoke. “My Gawd,”
•she breathed in awe, “if it isn’t

didn’t really get them pants ip- the

Said Salt harshly: “Shut up. 1
Then his eyes foifnd Connemara’s

“Well, it hasn't been a strawber

“I assure you I’m very much al
right,” said Saltonstall Cabo

—he reached beneath his shirt anl
dramatically drew forth the shim
mering auburn coil—“I have heri
your token of our engagement.” '
Bing snapped his head to the rear
‘-TJon’t be an ass,” he growled. “’
told you what that meant lasi
night.”
But Aunt Celimena spoke up
“Gentlemen, please.” she protested
“We have all had too much. Thfa ii
no time ”
“Once in a while you say l
mouthful, Aunt Cellv,” agreed Con'
nemara with a tired smile. “Besidei

“No more discussion, Constanct
Maryl Not, at least, while this ter
rible shadow _of uncertainty hang! !

“Uncertainty?” Salt demanded
"What do you mean?”
“I mean exactly what I .say.
Those horrible men—and their
fiendish associates!” Her lip curled
just perceptibly in the direction ol
Sweetie. “I tell you I shall nert
sleep a wink until they are every
One in jail. That is why I want
Mr. Brewster and both Saltonstall
and Bingham to remain with us at

bones that something is going to

Sweetie'wheeled in her seat, faced
the group in the rear of the car and
deliberately winked.
“Us floor defenseless women I”
she murmured. “Ain't it the trutli?”
From the ferry house came tho
