a MeIl McrIted Rebuke.

In response to an editorial remark in
the Virginia Chronicle, that the said
journal had received no authentic in
formation as to Governor Bradley's
intention TO acquire the unenviable dis,
tinction of third-termer," the Footiighl
administers the following we'll merited
rebuke:
"The Chronicle knows that Governor
Bradley is a candidate for re-nomina-
tion, and to pretend it does not, speaks
badly for the influence and Knowledge
OF the organ (?) Of tho Democracy of
Nevada 1t claimed some time ago
that it had information to the effect
that the Hon. Jerry Schooling would
not appear before the State Convention
for denomination, which was untrue
and we defy it to show any authority
written or verbal to that effect. Its rs.
ser;ion in regard to both men are untrue,
for although tho FoOtiiykt is small and
does not claim to be "the organ OF the
Democracy OF Nevada" it has most
certainly by its stoadfast endorsement
and support OF Democratic principles
won the respect and confidence OF the
leaders of that party, and through their
information and with their consent has
already made known to the public the
position Of the two honorable gentle
men referred to, and il IL bitter COM
nendntion on the Chronicles Democracy
that pe should be admitted into the
councils of the party. while it stands
alone at the outer gate. and publishes
articles OF doubtful veracity, from the
stray grains Of questionable information
which it gathers. The truth of the mat
tor is, that paper will il possible OPP
pose Governor Bradley, providing he
receives the nomination, and will take
IA an excuse 'tho third.term PROPOSE
tion.' 1t will play its old dishonorable
undemocratic trick, of supporting part
of the ticket aud opposing those whom
its bonanza master directs 1t to. But il
wont do, it is already in bnd odor with
the Dem mocracy and this Fall decides its
political fnte-it must be either truly.
thoroughly Democratic, or bonanza
nonenity." ...
The course pursued by the Chronicle
with respect to the Bullion Tax Bill is
still fresh in the memory OF its readers,
and as tho FooHigh truly obserYes. its
profound Ignorance regarding a sub
ject OF which the balance OF the people
of the State are fully appraised, is q
bad sign"
There arc mono so blind as those
who will not see, and the remarkable
obscurity Of vision with which the ChroH-
'cic is still afflicted. will, we fear, prevent
the official Journal OF the Democracy
OF tho State from discovering what are
the wishes of its reputed constituency,
next, Fall. 1t is now clearly evident
that the bullion tax issue is to be again
brought TO the front, ard the indica-
tiors Rro that the Chronicle. i stead of
Occupying the position Of an influential
journal. will again sink to the dis
graceful level of n corporation organ.

In the afternoon a committee was ap-
pointed to wait on Gov. Bishop and in
vfte him to visit the grange. The Gov
ernor was escorted to the Senate Chamber
and introduced to the members of the
Grange. He made n short and appropri-
ate speech, to which Master Ellis res
ponded, after which some time was spent
socially.
In the evening memorials were present
ed and resolution adopted petitioning
the Legislature to provide for County Su-
perintendents of the country schools
The discussion on this was very earnest,
and the delegates seemed determined to
have the country schools better organized
and under careful supervision. The res
olution was adopted unanimously.
The per diem of delegates was fixed at
81, with mileage. This is intended to COW
er the expenses. The rest of the evening g
was consumed in the consideration of va
rious petitions, which were read and re-
ferred to the appropriate committees.
The State Grange will be in session tc-
day and tomorrow. It will adjourn tC-
morrow night.

The Jury Absurdity.

Mr.. Justice Miller, before the NewYork
State Association thus expresses himself
on the value of jury trials:
"If cultivated Oriental were told for
the first time that a nation, which claims
to be in advance OF all others in its love
of justice and its methods of enforcing it,
required, as one of its fundamental prin-
ciples of Jurisprudence, that every con-
troversy between individuals, and every
charge of crime against an offender,
Should be submitted to twelve men with
out learning in law, and that neither par
ty to the contest could prevail until all
the twelve men were of one opinion in
his favor, he would certainly be amazed
at the proposition. Nor have the Euro
pean nations differed much with him in
their estimate of trial by jury. It has
been well understood and received the
careful consideration of continental ju-
rists for great many years, without be-
ing adopted by any of them, in the form
that we have it from England. Many at
temps have been made to introduce it in
some modified shape, but think it safe to
say that it has not in its essential Angle
Saxon feature met the approval of any
people exceptthose of that race. In the
days when kings exercised arbitrary
power, the jury was, among the sturdy,
liberty-loving Englishmen, a valuable
barrier against oppression by the crown.
But in this country, where the people are
sovereign, the jury is but too often the
mere reflection of popular impulse, and
the safety of an innocent man is more
frequently found to depend on the firm
ness of the judge than the impartiality
of the jury. Still it is probably wise that
no man shall be convicted of an Infamous
crime until twelve fair-minded men are
convinced of his guilt. 1 am also forced
to admit, however, that even in civil cases
my experience as a judge has been much
more favorable to jHry trials than it was
as practitioner. And am bound to say
that an intelligent and unprejudiced jury
when such can be obtained, who are in
structed in the law with such clearness
precision and breviSy as will present theiI
fattsttyf fatt in bold relief, are rarely mistaken il
regard to facts which they are called upor
to f1md.''

THE ACTION OF LA GU PI-A

La-cu-pi-a, taken internally, is digested
like food, and enters into the circulation.
Its first remedial action is upon the blood
and through that upon every part where
it is needed. In this way it purifies the
blood of excess of bile and acids, of all
foreign and morbid matter, and brings it
into healthy state. 1t aids nature in ex-
pelling the foreign and destructive ele-
ments by the lungs, stomach, bowels.
