Congressional Re-Districting.

Last Summer, We figured out
and published, n plan Tor districting
ihs State for Congressman, on the
basis OF nine members. Tho plan
was extensively copied by papers in
the State, and, except in two instan-
ccs that come to our notice, favora-
lily co nmcn.el upon. The pan is not
accurate, as no plan can be. The
number OF population for each men,
her, on the basis Of nine members,
will be 1922. THIS number can
DC approximatcd, only. We believe
the plan TO be rs nearly accurate as
any one can be, taking into account
proximity and continuity OF TERRITORY,
amount of population, and the fact
that the clrstcrn portion OF the State
Will not settle up SO rapidly, during
the next ten years, as the western
portion. The Legislature has APP
pointed Committees to rc-district tile
State. although Congress has not yet
made the superintendent. There is
little doubt, however, that nine mem.
bers will be appo,tioned to this State.
The plan is re-published below;
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1872-01-25
A Reform Needed.

The progress of intelligence has
converted one ofthc great bulwarks
OF human safety, into IN engine of in.
justice. Practically, a man is dis
qualified to sit as a Juror if he has
read newspaper accounts Of the issue
he is cmpanelled to try. There are
very few Cases Of mt;rder or other
heinotts crimes, which do not find
their way into the newspapers. In
these cases, especially the newspaper
reader is disqualified to sit as ajuror.
The fact, admitted by all intelligent
men, that q man who does not read
papers is disqualified by reason ofhis
want Of intelligence to be a good
juror, weighs nothing. In all great
trials, requiring intellectual acutencss,
as we'll as knowledge of the world
and men, the very men possessing
these requisites are banished from
the jury box. This state OF things is
a disgrace to our civilization. W.
| call attention to an article IN another
column, from the Davenport Gazette,
| which is worthy the study of all.
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1872-01-25
Change or Front.

The rumors that have Of late boon
current, to the effect that the Chica.
60 Republican had changed, or was
about to change, proprictors and ed.
TORS seem to have Lad some foun-
dation. For example: the RepwbM-
can a short tiu,e ago, was 4 bitter
anti,admiD;strat,on paper, and one OF
the most pronounced free trade al.
vocates in the West. Lately, It has
become Il thorough administration
paper, and a late number places it
sGdarely and nnequivocally on the
protective tariff principle. We are
happy to note these changes.
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1872-01-25
Abolish tile Grand Jury.

Whether or not the Grand Jury Il
consistent with American institutions
is in harmony With the civilization 0,
the 10th century, has been much
discussed. Certain it is that there is
a wide spread and growing antipathy
to this inqnsitorial body, among the
legal profession as we'll as among the
plain people Of ordinary occupations.
One state, at least, Wisconsin, we
believe, has abolished the Grand Jury
System altogct her.
Senator Shane has taken the init.
stive In the Iowa Legislature and Of.
fcrd amendments to the State Con-
stitution striking out the Grand ia.
~ .System, and materially changing
another branch Of our judicial system.
We give below, the resolutions as Of
fered to the Senate ani referred to an
appropriate Committee:
Be it resolved BY the General Assembly IF

amendment to the constitution Of the

when in actual service In time Of war or

by other proceedings before . judicial off,
