have been next to impossible to
have gottfa aa nahassed jury. As
it waa„the jury knew nothing of the

did the attorneys know' the jurora;
they were all strangers. We hope
our State saay enact just such a
law. There as no reason why say
case should be earned from one

so. to bring undue infiuencea upon
the juror*.
Its not the man who haa read
