THE BEATTY JURY LAW.

The law regarding iurieS. passed at
the last session of the Nevada Leyisla-
ture. has called forth more anatheinas
than any other law on the statute
books of this State. 1t is said to have
been the aim of the learned author TO
get up a law that should be a torment
to every citizen of the State. 1t is said
that the Judge spent years over it, and
that in fact it has been the study of his
life. Like the labOring mountain, he
brought forth a mouse: and a nasty.
mi>chieviou> little mouse, at that. Tie
exemption clause in the bill gives an
arbitrary Judge and there are arbitrary
and unjust Judges in the world an op-
portunity of venting his spite in two
ways. first by continuing to place the
name OF a person he dislikes on the
Grand Jury list term after term, and
compelling him to serve or pay the
price of exemption. If all District
Judges were gentlemen, and compe-
tent men, the law would still be am
OdIOus one, for many reasons. As the
Judiciary now stands. we have not
words to express our feelings, nor the
feelings of the majority, on the sub
ject. one thing is certain. viz: that no
man can 90 to the Legislature next
year who does not pledge himself to
the repeal of this odious bill.
The Carson Tribune publishes the
foregoing. While we have never IA
vored the Beatty law, in any shape,
candor compels us to say that the
Tribune editor is rather harsh in his
denunciatiOn of it. The law seems to
work smoothly enough; and SO far as
this county is concerned, We have
heard but few complaints against it.

THE ALASKA COMMERCIAL CON.
my

The Washington correspondent OF
the Alta devotes a chapter to the above
concern. He does not enter upon any
crusade against it. but he presents
great facts that are suspicious and
damaging. \ son of Senator Morton
holds an important position under the
company. General Hutchinson. the
managing MAJ of the concern. is con-
stantly in Washington watching on
gress. and he acts very nervou>ly. The
company has the privilege CT killing
JOG. 900 fur seals annually. For this ii
paws to the Government $4,000 per
annum. and 50 for each skin. or a total
of $3.50. ZOO per annum. The company
derives a profit of S400. 900 per annum,
out of which it is to pay its attorneys
and agents. \ Government Commits
sion has recommended that the num-
Der of seals to be killed each year be
increased. The company has mag
unanimously declined a privilege from
which its profits would be increased
$4,000 per annum. The correspondent
pithily remarks that such magnanimi-
ty toward seals was lever eXtendedto-
mard men. just before the company
obtained its lease, three hundred
thousand seals were killed annually
and the number was not deemed too
great. The circumstances of the ease
render it morally certain that the conf
panv is killing far more than 10000
seals per annum, secretly. and thereby
deriving an enormous and Illicit profit.
This opinion has largely prevailed and
1t is strengthened by the remarkable
magaanimity now displayed Ivy the
company. \. full and thorough inves-
tigation is demanded, to be carried on
by men who will not go into the white
washing business, and there is a fair
promise that such an examination will
be held.

TROUT.

The Enterprise wants some method
devised to prevent the unnecessary
slaughter of trout in the streams and
lakes of this State. That journal says:
All last Summer parties were engaged
in seining trout at the mouths of all
the little streams running into Lake
Tahoe and the Truckee river. The trout
were thus mercilessly slaughtered in
the spawning season. Some of these
parties were in California and others in
Nevada. TIL re ought t o be some
method devised by which this muir
derous mode can be bloken up. The
laws Of California and Nevada are
about the same in regard to the pre-
servation of fish. We hope the people
will everywhere invoke the law in the
matter, and if that fails, then we
should like to see regular patrols,
armed with shotguns, alongthe banks
CT the Truckee.
