hours or days time. While it is true
that t'alhoun covered hia tracks in a
way which made it difficult to establish
his guilt, still all disinterested and
honest mind«l men believe that his
guilt haa been «-stabllsh«! beyond doubt.
While we may question th«* wisdom of

houn should not be rxtended any favors
on that account It is just such results
in our court trials aa that of Calhoun,
which causes us to doubt the integrity
of court and jury.
Calhoun had any
amount of money at hia di«|M>sal for his
defense. He secur«l th«- very brightest
lawyers and their number was sufficient
to cover every possible point which
could be brought to issue. The people
was repreeented by Francis J. Henry
and two or three aaaociates. On the
one side waa arrayed the very beat
talent which could be obtain«!, on the
other, the side of the p«»ple, only Mr
Henry aiuf two or three assistants, Mr.
Heney being the master mind which
directed the conduct of the fight for
the parople. It is not s matter of sur­
prise that a mistrial result«!.
But the Calhoun trial is not the only
one in which the possession of much
