Petty
Politics
Of

In
connection
with
an
editorial
article
yesterday
dealing
with
the
railway
in
politics,
no
reference
was
made
there
to
potty
political
affairs
Mich
as
political
appointments
which
are
often
i-pokeu
uf
as
"polities."
Happily
the
railways
are
to
a
large
extent
out
of
politics
in
that
connection.
So
Tar
a
the
management
is
concerned,
when
it
does
not
conflict
with
auv
other
governmental
policy,
the
railway
officials
have
the
lat
say.
They
make
the
appointments
and
see
that
the
work
is
done.
They
draw
up
schedules
and
manage
the
railway
in
every
sense
of
the
word.
In
thabre-pect
the
railway
is
out
or

lhe
jury
system
or
trinl,
and
justly
he
may.
The
average
jury
is-not
fit
to

Trial

much
more
likely
lo

The

is
loo

and
loo
little
by

apart
from
the
clever

Thn-c
who

must
.e
struck
with
the
difference
between
trial
before
a
county

and
thai
before
a

The
county

as
a
rule
are
excellent
men
and
are
able
to
arrive
at
much
belter
decisions
than
lt

twelve
men
chosen
for
a
jury.
It
is
a
curious
fact
that
the
men
who
sit
in
our
county

are
often
much
better
balanced
and
more
capable
