EMOTIONAL JURIES Our lAmcrican jury system is sup posed to be based on human reason. But it isn't. It's based on emotion. Appeals to our juries are notoriously emotional in matter and method. I-awyers play with the jurymen's feel ings aa nvusicians on an organ. The result is that jury decisions usually reprcsent sentiment rather than judg ment, in cases where human passions are involved. Often they rpresent mere sentimentality, carried to atv surd lengths. The Mint. De Saulles case is an other instance of the old, familiar story. She killed her divorced hus band. There was no question about that, no denial. Theoretically, our law regards killing one's divorced hus band as a capital crime rather than a misdemeanor or a playful trick. The fact that the man in question may have been a moral reprobate, and may have aroused the righteous wrath of the defendant by refusing to let her have her son according to agreement, is not regarded as justifiable ground for killing him. If the woman knew what she was doing, she was guilty of murder. If the did not know, she was crazy. The theoretical penalty for murder is Jianging. The theoretical treatment for insanity ia confinement In ei ther case the idea is to save soeiety from further peril The De Saulles jury must have con cluded either that the defendant had a right to kill her husband, or that he was insane -when she did it Prob- Mud Guards Prepare for the wet season.

Anyhow, they promptly declared .her "not guilty," and turned her loose. It is a strictly logical conclusion, from such a verdict, tli.it the jury has authorised tlte defendant to kill any body else against whom she may im- I agine a sufficient grioancc. She is made the sole and irresponsible judge of her actions. "tiod bless you, child!" one oi the emotional jurymen remarked, ufter the acquittal. "You were never in any Janccr." Unite true! No pretty wo man who kills a man is in any dan ger in this country. UNIVERSITY GIVES $2,893 TO FRIENDSHIP WAR FUND O 3 Official Bulletin From Headquarters Reports Sums Given by Oregon Colleges UNIVERSITY OK ORKliON, Eu gene. Dec. 13. Oregon has given $2, .),t for the student fellowship war fund which exceeds the amount ap portioned by SS93. "All pledges are now due ami should be paid at once," said James Mhcpherson. general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. "If anyone has been missed in the canvass he can still pledge toward the fund if he will pay his pledge immediately. One fellow who enlisted this week came in and gave me $10 just before he left." The official bulletin from the Ore gon headquarters reports the amounts given by the colleges of Oregon. The bulletin begins: "Are you proud of Oregon? You ought to be. Some of the reports be low are not final. Just like a bij football game. You can't stop them. When you know that $10 will save the life of a soldier in a prison camp, this winter, you don't want to stop them, either."
