WHY NOT CHANGE?
Persons who have been followin
" the Arbuckle trial have doubtles
noticed that in the state of Calif or
nia murder is not a bailable offenct
and should the motion picture acto
be finally charged with that grav
crime instead of manslaughter, h
will be compelled to await the tim
of his trial in a jail cell. We have ;
way in South Caroliha of loosely con
fusing murder and manslaughter ii
the lay minds, though our courts am
laws make a proper distinctior
Should our laws be so changed as t
.
make murder: an offense for whic]
hail could not be had there might b
a little more discrimination in makin]
out indictments. It appears that sue!
a law would not be unreasonable. I
would certainly have a wholesome ef
feet in preventing continuous delay
oi trfals on grounds that to the la;
mind appears light technicalities, an<
_ in this respect at least tend to expe
dite justice. The whole of our prac
tice leans more or less toward th
criminal. A little change might b
t '
made in the interest of public safety
A good place to begin would be t
make murder an offense for which n
bail .could be granted.

passing the p&st year and frorrf which
there appears none too bright prospects
of emerging in good shape, certainly
makes the time rife for political
agitation .And the prospects are
more than good that \vc* will have it.
There will be one new factor in the
next eampaiprn with which few of the
old time politicians appear to take
into consideration. Since the last election
thousands of women have been
added to the list of eligible voters.
Their general attitude toward things
political is an unknown quantity.
Their general participation in the
voting might easily upset many well
laid calculations. The idea seems
general that as a rule they will not
take part. But the calculations may
be upset.
