The Beecher Jury.

A dispatch from New York at noon to-
day. says that the jury in the Beecher
case was still out. There was a great
throng of people present in and around the
court house and requests were made of
Judge Nelson to send for the jury-which
he refused to do, of course. Thousands of
people were struggling to get near the
court house, and it was with difficulty that
the police could keep the throng back.
None were admitted to the court room but
those who had right to do so.
At the hour for opening court this after
noon, the court room was densely crowded.
Mrs Beecher entered the court room with
Mr.. Porter and took up her usual place III
front Of the Plymouth throng. From an
early hour in the morning Judge Nelson
WINS in his private room waiting to hear
from the jury.
The audience passed the time in read
ing newspapers and in chat about the case
and the probabilities of the verdict The
feeling is gaining ground that the jury will
not agree, and good many bets are made
on such result.

The School Election,

Next Tuesday the people of this city will
vote lat the court house, for two members
of the board Of education in place of Mai.
Connolly and Mr.. McNIaster, whose terms
expire.
Mr.. McMaster, we hear, has consented
to serve another term if the people wish
him to do so, and we hear of no opposition
to him.
Maj. Connolly asks to be relieved from
further service, and DR.. Truesdale has
been generally named in his place. A cor
respondent of the Union suggested Mr.. f.
D. Sweeney, but that gentleman positively
refuses to be candidate As far as we
are advised, there will be no opposition to
DR.. Truesdale. He has before been q
member of the board and served with gen.
eral satisfaction to the people. 1t is ex-
pected that the big school building on
Bailey Davenport's high ground, corner Of
Otter and Indian Boundary street will be
commenced this year, and Dr. Truesdale
will be valuable man to have in the board
in that case. The members get no pay for
their services, but give their time and labor
for the benefit of the children. Let US have
men of enlarged and liberal views, whose
sympathies are with the mass of the people.
DR.. Truesdale is such aman. He has twice
been mayor of the city and has always
shown that his feelings were with the null
titude and opposed to rings, favoritism OF
partial administration.

To O. A Barnhart. Z

1t is not the purpose of The ARGUS to
devote any more space to so vile scamp
as the dead-beat Mills who works in the
little job office of Mr.. Barnhart. All that
THE ARGUS has said about him it believes
to be true, notwithstanding his afidav-
it, from the evidence lof respectable citi-
zens upon whom he has practiced his
scoundrelisms, and from the acknowledge
ments Mills himself has made to the re.
porters of The ARGUS since the first pub
LEGATION.
We will say to Mr.. Barnhart that there
was no intention of characterising his place
as indecent" Willie now tell US why he ap-
pears in the Union in the. role of protec-
tor and defender of this fellow while he
solicits the favors of respectable COM
munity? 1t is certainly questionable way
of advertising ones business. MIR. Barn
hart, you are too innocent for this world or
else you have some potent cause for heing
the defender of so notorious pimp. We
believe the fellow would not be tolerated
an instant in any other Office in this city.
1t is surprising that the Union should
admit such matter to its columns, when
this sameMills has attempted to fasten the
odium of that Chicago correspondence up
Oh respectable parties, also when every
printer in that Office knows the vile char
acter Of the man from, his own admissions
Again. it is surprising that the manager
of that paper should say that he published
the matter for Mr.. Barnhart from a sense
of justice when he knew some portions Of
Mills's affidavit to be false. Truly this is a
queer sense OF justice, but possibly Mr..
Barnhart used the argument that THE
ARGUS exposed the matter because he
(Barnhart) was running rival job Office
"a very weak argument, but We can con
ceive of no other that could affect tn,
Union to the extent of forgetting thu
annoyance it had, when the fellow WORKED
for them) from boarding house keepers h
was trying to beat. However we wish Mr.
Barnhardt and the Union success in tn
defense Of their protege.
