| Uhe Kake County Regiater -- Rumblings trSEM c pot indicate that many men have heard the of 1 orship and are grooming themselves for the race that will feature the political circus next year. Bvidently 'xf;ttmtiom of the governor's chair, regardless of the hot r into which it propells the sitter, are not to be sneezed at. No one has any doubts about the intentions of Gov. Len small to seek re--election. Louis Emmerson, Mrs. Medill Mc-- Cormick, and Oscar Caristrom are also mentioned as guber-- natorial possibilities. On the Democratic side, there are five candidates who loom on the horizon as likely candidates. They are Michael L. Igoe and Anton J. Cermak of Chicago, Justice Fioyd E. Thompson of the Supreme court and a resident of Rock Island, State Representative John P. Devine of Dixon, and Former Congressman Bruce A. Campbell of East St. Louis. All in all it looks as though both parties are going to have a pretty fight on their hands before they select their best man. Len Small, with his strong political machine back of him may land the Republican nomination, but if he does succeed, it will be against the bitter opposition of voters who believe in honest and economical government. For the second time in two years obBby Jones of Atlanta has won the British open golf championship. This year there was nothing to the tournament. for Bobby came first by the comparatively large margin of six strokes. Numerous other titles bespeak Bobby's golfing prowess, but the fact that he has won the British open title two years in succession is the greatest achievement of all. His golf in the recent tournament was magnificent, setting a new record of 285 for the seventy--two holes. This figure is six strokes under the former British open tournament record. By winning the British title, Jones added another American victory in the friendly rivalry between the two great English speaking nations. Jones' victory marked the sixth American muccess in British open golf in the last seven years. Jock Hutchison won in 1921, Walter Hagen in 1922, Arthur Havers in 1923, Hagen again in 1924, Jim Barnes in 1925, and Bobby Jones last yéar and again this year. No praise is too"great for the Atlanta youth. He is the second player to repeat in the championship, James Braid winning in 1904 and 1905. Besides having the honor of dupli-- cating that almost impossible feat, Bobby is the only amateur to annex the title since Harold Hilton won in 1897. If a professional had won out last week, his victory would have retted him thousands of dollars, but to Bobby it means only more glory, but no money. . -- a 00 OUR JURY PROBLEM . If murder trials continue to increase, ignorance will be at a premium. People who do nothing or know nothing will in time be sgought as systematically as those who are geniuses. A college education is good enough for business, but who cares to attend to business while a notorious murderer is on trial. Long trials, it has been found, do great harm to the com-- mercial life of the nation by distracting the attention of the business man from his work. Therefore, the government ought to shorten the trials. Inasmuch as the government would be depriving the people of their lawful pleasure by reducing the testimony in a sensational case, the only feasible way it could save time would be to eliminate the long 'period of selecting jurors. Wouldn't it be a worthy undertaking for our govern-- ment to educate part of our populace into perfect jurors? By having unimpeachable candidates for jurors, the courts would save much time, much expense, and much public fidgetting. They would enable the principal witnesses to tell their lurid stories without a bit of delay. First of all, if the government is to perform the needed service of raising perfect jurors, it must have good raw materhl1 with which to work. Certain asylums maintained by the statesi of ithe Union are especially well fitted to furnish a perpetual supply. It may be difficult to reconcile the inmates of these asylums to a judicial career, seeing that they thave had Napoleonic aspirations for many years, but when they learn that they will be the envy of the entire newspaper reading public, they will undoubtedly be anxious to change. People who attend World's Series baseball games where seats from the "scalpers" cost $50 are looked upon as unusually fortunate. How much more to be envied are those who get jury seats at trials where admission cannot be gained at any price? Birth control may endanger the supply in the distant future, since it aims to reduce the number of feeble--minded, but as long as people get married with no more resources than an installment pian, the law of heredity may be relied upon to stave off the danger. In<the education of prospective jurors the government faces a mire difficult task than in the accumulation of a supply: The difficulty is not so much in raising the intelligence of the gandidate as in keeping it absolutely on its original plane. which, if the subject is a good one, is somewhere near zero. A perfect juror, be it mentioned, must have three qualifications: he must know nothing, he must have no business, and he must have no opinions of his own. In order to prevent him from knowing anything, the government would have to keep him from books, newspapers, and schools. The present plan of segregating him in special institutions seems to work satis-- factorily. The restriction preventing him from working at any business will probably please him greatly, because it will relieve him 'of the common curse of mankind. This type of education will increase the number of itinerant gentle men who wander from one police station to another, but the public should not display any irritation over the fact, imasmuch as the gentlemen are preparing themselves for worthy careers. By not learning anything or doing any-- thing, the embryo juruor will have little opportunity to form _epinions of his own, but there is a slight chance that he will Mummmmxmnmmmu rtuville.

How to bring about this state of mind is a problem for our ernment scienitists. It may be solved by using hypnosis KEYSTONE PRINTING SERVICE, Publishers. Succevding the Waukegan Gazette FRANK H.
