UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu gene. .March Z(. rue I niversny 01 Oregon Student. Carlton Spencer, who won the recent intercollegiate uro torirnl Contest held In Eugene brought out some signlllcant runs 'n regard to crime and Its cause In tin l'nlted States, ill his oration. "The Rust on Our Legal Machinery." Ill sjieaklng of the marked Increase OI clime, me iierversn.it 01 j.inin" j the courts, and the common dlsre snect for n law. Spencer cited how the l'nlted Slates leads all nations In the crime of murder and especially unpunished murders: bow crime costs the nation more that the value or Its total output or wheat, coal and wood; how In 20 years previous to 1 904. homicides Increased 20 per cent, and only one nnd three-tenths were punished; how every year the lynchlngs outnumbered the legal exe cutions, while against this latter rati the United Kingdom or Great Britain lias not had n lynching In 7 5 years. In analyzing the cause or o:ir i, n. m. nt ilav lawlessness as a nation, Mr. Spencer believes that the old love for law and order which Is the beii ti.ira nf our race has not suffered i-i.irntrresslon. but that the cause fori crime lies largely In the defective criminal procedure of American con lis, In the strict adherence to legal precedent, the necessity or which no longer maintains since mer ciful and Just laws themselves offer protection lo innocent men. Mr. Spencer pointed out Hint In England as late as the oighteenth century there were offenses punishable by death: tbitt a man ac cused of Clime was totally without protection: that the Indlcl inelil whs written in language wholly uninlelll glble to the prisoner, that he was allowed no counsel, could not testily In his own bebair, and had no appeal. At a natural revolt against such laws, merciful judges enforced tech nically In favor of the incused.

This , is the Indictment against our system ot rourt procedure. It Is very large-, ly the cause tor Al h all lawless- j liesrt. l All obvious correct Ion which Mr. Spencer-pointed out Is lb" reci uwi- dntlotl or the American Bar Associa tion that "no Judgment should be re-; versed or new trial grained unless It shall appear thai the accused has been harmed by the error complained nr." x i China lint ales Russia.
