REVISION OF HE
ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFERS
COMMENDABLE SUGGESTIONS
TO LEGISLATURE
In line with the general movement
throughout the nation for a revision
of methods of criminal procedure
to combat the evils that have grown
up, and wherein the criminal has en
joyed every advantage to the detri
ment of organized human society,
Attorney General Rustgad has recom
mended to the Legislature that in the
matter of selecting juries, the State
should have an equal number of chal
llenges with the defendant.
He also recommends that the presid
ing judge be given authority to com
ment upon and explain evidence of
fered to the jury.
He believes that the principle of
the defendant not taking the stand in
his own behalf is a bad one, and that
juries should be instructed to consider
this circumstance in arriving at a ver
dict.
The Attorney General points out
that the evils which have grown up
about criminal procedure and which
have made it almost impossible to se
cure punihment for the offender and
protect society, are the outgrowth of
the days of the Stuarts of England,
when the people were in conflict with
royal despotism. The prosecutor be
came an object of infamy in his ma
chinations against freedom. It there
fore became necessary to place safe
guards about the man charged with
an offense lest he be denied justice
and the tyrannical powers made more
secure. This has led to a point where
a bulwark has been built up about the
criminal in latter-day procedure which
is responsible for his escape from the
consequences of his act.
In these enlightened days, says the
Attorney General, there is no longer
necessity for this procedure, in view
of the fact that instead of the power
of the nation and organized society
being arrayed against individuals, cer
tain individuals are arrayed against
all law and order.
The Attorney General is supported
in his viewpoint by the Baume law of
New York and the findings of the
California committee named to get at
the cause of so many crimes and the
failure to punish.
It is proposed to take many of the
tecnichalities and obscurities from the
criminal statutes, make them fair and
also capable of reaching the man who
refuses to recognize law.
Among those arriving in the city
from Seattle will be Oscar Ander
son, prominent Cook Inlet business
man. Mr. Anderson has been visit
ing his family in Seattle during (the
last month. It is reported he con
templates the establishment of a
butcher shop in Fairbanks.
