At present only Radicals are considered competent to serve as jurors in the Federal courts of Alabama. As men are often ar raigned in those courts for charges that are political in their nature, it follows that their fate is in the hands of their political opponents. Ten out "f twelve such jurors are men of no character, social standing or intelli gence. We mistake Judge Bradley’s ideas of justice if he does not revolu tionize the system complained of.
