An investigation OF various well.deHned re-
ports concerning tho discharge by tho Grim
inal Court Grand Jury Of RoNrY, GnuErz-
MAcuEn, and Harmon, tho men charged will,
tho murder OF BcHAEr2LE1s md Roos on tho
tho 9th Of january Inst, has resulted in tho
development Of condition Of things which
nlay we'll oxcito the CONSERVATION Of Tho
people Of Chicago. It appcara from, tho
statements Of several parties evidently ci,-
titled to belief that tho escapo Of RoSEr,
tho confessed murderer, md tho two
alleged accessories from indictment for
the terrible crimc was tho result
of concerted plon, in the execution of
which money was freely used; md tint the
Grand Jury WAS party to tho scheme. No
other conclusion is possible, in viow of tho
statements given in onr local columns, tllan
TINT m infamous outrago has been perpe-
tratotl in this n.atter. RoSEr, tho ncknow1-
edged murderer Of two inoifensiro mon, has
escaped, ona is now fnr from tho reach Of
| tho officers Of justice, but there must be
some law to rcacla tho corrupt scoundrels
who conspired to set him FREQ, DO they Grand
Jurors or who they may. If money can pur-
chaso immunity for ,nurt1orera in Chicago, it
is time tho people know 1t.

ditionnl repeal Of tho Resumption net, substi-
tutiug nothing in ita place except what they
call tho "natural lnwa Of tradc.' They
wnnt tho currency "neitlor' expanded nor

"stcadily pursuing" this do-1ess policy they
look for "ultimato resumption Of spocie-pay-
monts." Tho next best thing for those who
beliove in this idiotio. policy 10 to go and voso
for FRANK LANpEns, the stumptaif candidate
for Governor. Tho Wisconsin Republicans
do not advocate tho reponl of the Resumption
act. They have avoided making any exprcs-
sion on tho subject, prefer7ing to loavo tho

Tho old adage, "What is sauce for tha
goose Ia Bauco for tho gaudor," is exompliacd
in moro why's than ono in connection With
the recent New York fire. It will bo remem-
bered TINT, after tho gront fro in Chicago, tho
people Of this city were severely criticised
for tho largo number Of unsafo buildings,
the lack Of lre-proof atructuroa, tho inefl-
cheney Of tho Fire Department, and tho in-
auflciency Of tho water supply. Since tho
New York fro, however, it has been
found TINT that city also llas un-
safe buildings, structures that arc not
fre-proof, n Firo Department that Is
badly managed, md water supply that
is much moro doacieEt in proportion to tho
size Of tho cities thau our own ever was.
It will also ho remembered TINT it WIS
serious cause Of complaint ngainst our local
insurance companies that our risks wore 60
largely locatcl in Chicago. It now appears
that tho sarno holds truo Of no Loss than
th1rty-nino New York City insurance com.
panics whose risks aro located almost entirely
in tho mercantile part Of that city. In cass
of n disastrous conaagration approximating
in loss to tho Chicago fire, tho assets Of these
companies would shrivol up quito as succoRs.
fully as did those Of our own companies. It
begins to appear that all tho lessons We wero
compelled to 1oaru from our great conaagra-
ton the New Yorkera hare yet 10 learn from
their little blaze.
