GOVERNOR CURTIN ON JURY
REFORM.
Gov. Curtln, In his last message, re
commended to tho Legislature tho pas
sagoof anactfortheelcctlonof Jury Com
missioners in each county of the State,
by whom Jurors for nil the courts should
bo Eclected j tho Commissioners to bo
chosen in tho samo manner in which In
spectors aro chosen under tho general
election Taws. This plan is, as our read
ers aro aware, that each elector votes for
ono candidate, while tho two candidates
highest In votes aro elected. This is a
simple, though rudo contrlvanco by
which both parties may bo represented
in election boards, and though it docs
not attain to ideal perfection as a fea
ture of our electoral system, it is no
doubt most useful and salutary as a prac
tical arrangement. To bo sure, tho mi'
nority, aro given, in ordinary cases, an
equal voice with tho majority in tho so-
lection of an Inspector; but it Is to bo
romembcrcd that tho third member of
the board, tho Judgo of tho election, Is
chosen by tho tho majority, with power
to decido between tho inspectors if tiioy
disagree upon any question. The repre
sentation of tho minority upon election
boards, under this plan, is a very vnlua-
bio safeguard against unfairness and
fraud in elections and Is, wo believe,
generally popular with tho people.
But wo think that Gov. Curtin's pro
position for tho application of this plan
to tho election of Jury Commissioners
in tho several counties of tho State, Is
open to somo strong objections, which
wo will proceed to stato.
In the llrst place its effect (or at least
Its tendency) will bo to givo to the poli
tical minority, in any county, precisely
as many Jurors as aro given to tho ma
jority. Tho caso is not exactly analo
gous to that of an election board, which
consuls of threo members, ono of whom
is selected simply upon tho majority or
plurality rulo. Thcro aro to bo but two
Commissioners with equal powers ; tho
minority Commissioner to be in no re
spect Inferior to tho other. Ho can
therefore select as many jurors as his
colleague can, and mako a minor inter
est in tho community equal In influence
nnd power with a major one, so far as
this question of selecting Jurors Is con
cerncd. Tho complaint now is that tho
minority have no voico in tho proceed
ing: by tho proposed plan thoy would
havo undue and unreasonable power as-
Biened them.
In tho next place tho plan does not
provide for tho decision of questions
whero tho commissioners shall disagree
Tliero may bo a dead-lock ; thoy may
hold each other In check, and tho per
formance of their duties bo stopped or
abandoned in consequence. No other of
ficer can act with or decide between
them, bocauso no such ofllcer is provi
ded for by tho plan j nor is there auy su
perior authority which can luterposo to
eettlo their disputes.
Again: It Is likely that in ono respect
partisan considerations will prevail
moro than at prcscut, under tho pro
posed plan. Each commissioner will bo
chosen with tho direct object of aiding
as well representing his party, In tho se
lections mado. Therefore, actlvo politl
clans will bo selected to a greater extent
than at present, and Independent nnd
modcrato men bo omitted from tho lists
But sucli last mentioned men aro peculi
arly suited to Jury service and their elec
tion oucht not to ho diseouraired.
Lastly, tho Governor's plan iuvolvcs
tho Inconvenicnco and expense of two
additional officers In each comity. Can
dldatcs to bo voted for aro already sufll
elently numerous and their number
ought not to bo increased without strong
necessity, nor ought tho exponso of two
additional officers to bo incurred even
ii annum n nnnfl itl.tfu.1 unliibj rl )in. ,...-
ricr means of accomplishing It aro im
possible.
It is because wo aro strongly in favor
of n reform in tho selection of Jurors,
that wo bestow particular ntteutinn up
on tho lato Governor's propsltion. Wo
agreo that In many cases his plan would
bo much better than tho present system,
notwithstanding tho objections which
llo against it and which arostnted above.
In fact wo aro glad ho called attention
to tin? subject in his final comuiunltlou
to tho Legislature, thus placing on re
cord, in nnplllclal form, his (minion that
our existing system la defective and re
quires nmondmcnt.
Senator Shoemaker of Luzerno has In
troduced a bill into tho Stato Senate, in
conformity with Gov. Curtin's recom
mendation. Wo d j not know what jiro
sbect thero'is of Its passage. For our
selves, in viow of tho reasons abovo
stated, wo havo doubts of tho expedien
cy and wisdom of tho measure.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington-, Feb. 11, 16C7.
Messrs. JCditors : A hill was brought
boforo tho House tho other day, by Mr.
Joncke., of llhodo Island, which lins
not received tho attention It deserves nt
tho hands of tho. press, l'lausiblo at n
first glance, and conrtnondliig Itself to
tho cursory examiner ns a mcasuro ben
cutting tho conduct of tho affairs of tho
Government, it lias all tho elements of
a popular measure to thoso who do not
look beneath tho surfaco of aflalrs. It
Is a bill to establish (seemingly) an ex
amining board hero to ascertain the
questions of applicants for positions in
tho different departments of tho Gov
ernment. Tho board will havo power
to establish subsidiary board3 at any
point they may sco lit; hut It is In re
ality a bill to perpctuato tho power or
tho Radical party. It Is very easy to
conceive how tills can bo done. itli
boards at tho central points In every
Stato, they can so work upon tho solf-
Intercst, as to control to an unlimited
extent tho political character of tho
country. Each applicant for n position
boforo tho board will necessarily bo an
electioneering agent for tho party which
thoy represent. No Conservative will
bo ablo to pass the examination institu
ted for liis benefit by those boards, ex
cept nt raro intervals, and Instead of n
benefit to tho Government, this bill
will lead to tho worst examples of polit-
eal debauchery that havo over been
witnessed in tills country. In time, ns
its influenco extends, wo shall seo in it
another phaso of corruption. Each ap
plicant for examination boforo tho board
will bo assessed a stipulated sum, anil
tho amounts collected In tills way will
bo used as a. vast electioneering fund.
It Is a return to a similar system prac
ticed in England some years ago, but
which had to bo abandoned for its noto
rious corruption.
It is n mistako to supposo that tho
ability to pass a theoretical examina
tion implies tho making of a good clerk
Tho truo test of fitness Is n really practi
cal trial. Thcro aro few men, unless
it bo thoso whoso calllug brings them
Into frequent practice of tlieso studio.-'
that can pass a satisfactory examination
in the numerous brandies of knowl
edge-, which form tho features of these
examinations. Yet many of thoso who
would fall in this examination aro men
who would bring a habit of practical
application to tho business in hand
which would go further toward a care
ful administration of tho officers of tho
departments than any other system
that could be adopted.
Thad. Stovcns has lost much of tho
power ho exercised in tho House at tho
last session. In fact, so palpable is this
that ho has not called a meeting of the
Reconstruction Committco tills session
Probably tho result of tho election for
Senator in your Stato, will still further
decreaso his influence.
Just now thcro Is much Interest felt
In a bill lately introduced in Congress
to establish a public park. This is an
improvement which will add much to
tho attactlvcncss of tho city, and there
seems to bo no good reason why there
should bo none.
Tho death of Hon. Philip Johnson, is
n loss to your Stato which can hardly
be estimated. Ho was highly esteemed
here, and his deatli is much deplored

A REMINISCENCE.
About thirty years ago, a member of
tho IIouso of Representatives, named
Lavcrty, representing tho counties on
tho Vest Branch of tho River Susque
hanna, was discovered to havo boon
corruptly influenced in tho support ho
gavo to somo legislation favoring tho in
terests of Mr. M'Coy, of Northumber
land, then nn actlvo laud speculator.
Tho fact was disclosed by his attempt
ing to collect by law, tho amount of a
note, which was, it seems, tho corrupt
consideration; and this was after h is re
election. Knowing well how such
crlmo would shock tho moral senso of
tho times, Mr. Lavcrty did not como to
Harrlsburg to claim his seat, but left tho
countrx', and a new election was or
dered.
"Wo think we aro correct in this little
bit of history, and if wo aro, the thought
very naturally arises: what has caused
thegreat revolution in public sentiment,
which to-day allows bribery to go, not
only unpunished, but in fact, rewar

der tho Administration of Governor
Ritner, and chiefly, as wo think, owin
to tho lnllucnco and loose morals of
Thad. Stevens. It was not heard of be

surely over since, it has taken fearful
strides recently, all over tho country,
and is now a fearful evidence of tho de-
ray of this Republic.

It is generally understood that tho
