This talk about farmers not going
to town because they can't buy liq-
there is all rot. It is a
on the farmer and a measly bid to
merchants to advocate the open
loon. The farmers do not go to town
to get liquor, but some of them,
when they get into a saloon town
are tempted and tried and
ed by the insidious saloon until
they do drink and drunk. For
a town to set up such
as the saloon to get business from
the farmer should be resented by
the farmer as unjust to him. Let
the farmer beware of the town that
tries to lure him into a saloon.

Reform Needed in Our Jury System.
The Progressive Farmer has
more than once called attention to
the need of certain reforms in our
jury system. Last October, after
the conclusion of the Haywood
murder case, we argued that in the
matter of challenges
of men, the prosecution I

and we would give the prisoner
every reasonable concession. But,
it is enough, in all conscience, that
he should have twelve chances to
one before
only to convince one juryman
of bis probable innocence Jo escape
while the must convince
twelve jurymen of his positive
in order convict. It is
enough, as we then said, for the
prisoner to have twelve chances to;
one before the jury, without the
additional advantage of
that jury.
These facts the of act-
ion are brought more impressively
to mind by a letter now before us
written by officer of long ex-
in our Superior Court.-.
The figures by him are
less than amazing and ought
to lead to demand
for the legislation which, as he I
himself declares, is so much
