Corn has been growing so fast since
the recent heavy rains that it has not
only made up for lost time, but rather
improved upon its record in former
seasons. Potatoes, also, are erowding

rank as to get ahead of the Colorado
pests and the tubers are yelling to one

TEE Chicago Tribune, which is the
leading Republican newspaper in the
Northwest, has no high opinion of
SHERNAN's availability, and summarizes
some Of his weak points, which il says
more than offset the claim which re-
sumption under his administration Of
finances gives him. The Tribune says:
Sherman was identified with the OPP
position to the restoration of the silver
dollar; ne was credited with the task OF
stiffening the President in the veto Of
the Silver Bill; and, ever since the bill
finally became a law, he has interpreted
and executed il in a way TO render it of
the least possible advantage TO the
country. He has confined the coinage
of the standard dollars almost TO the
minimum prescribed by law. He has
done nothing 10 encourage the circula-
ton OF the "white dollar" but much 10
depreciate its use and value. He has
awaited himself OF none Of the abund-
ant opportunities for paying out the
standard silver dollars along with the
gold and the greenbacks. He has failed
TO bring the silver-certihcates, provided
for last year, into active circulation, as
he might have done by paying out silver
10 the Governments creditors and the
public servants, and by answering every
objection to such payment theoretically
by reference to the law and practically
by the tender of certificates in exchange
for the coin.

The shipment of freight over the B. &
O. X. r. is now very great. Tits difficult,
we understand, to secure sufficient roll
ing stock TO move the large amount of
freight awaiting shipment from the
West, Transportation men are making
double time in many eases and many
new men are being employed daily. In
consequence OF the brisk traffic on the
road the work in the shops is increased,
and the employees here in some depart
ments are making extra time. This be-
tokens a prosperous state Of affairs
among the farmers, as much of the sur
plus freight is grain and stock. Surely
the agricultural classes have much TO be
grateful for, and little to fear from hard
times, or any similar evils.

A CoNPARAT1vE ExHIH1 OF
THE PROPOSED CHANNELS IN
II THE. JUDI0kARY sxsTEM !,
Observing hat thereis : verydecided
disposition springinx up throughout the
sssss 70 study into The proposed changes
in our judiciary system, we are induced
10 place before the readers OF the Reg
rsrxx srarefuity prepared summary OF
these changes, arranged in such man
ner as TO enable the reader to compare
the present and the proposed systems
side by side, and thereby understand
the exact and specific change proposed
in each instance.
We recognize the fact that the major
ity of voters will not have the time or
the facilities for making such an inyes-
tigation for themselves, and yet it is alb
solutely necessary in order to properly
understand and appreciate the changes
proposed, or to choose intelligently be-
tween the present system and the one
proposed. We ought to have an intel
ligent and not hsp-hazard vote on
this important subject. 1t is too i'm
portant TO every citizen 10 be passed by
without thoughtful and careful investi-
CATION for himself. IL may be too early
TO discuss political states for the next
campaign, but it is not too early for the
people to begin to study and fully COM
prehend the import OF the proposed
changes they will be called to act upon
in regard to the organic law OF the State.
The following exhibit will therefore
serve as kind of u campaign docu-
ment TO all who desire TO understand
and vote inteIligently upon the sub
ject, and it would be well to preserve
it for reference as occasion may suggest
between this and the taking OF the
vote. .
The changes proposed by the con-
stitutional amendments are confined to
article Sth of the present constitution
and to sec. Is, of art. 8. We shall quote
the present Constitution wherever a
change is made, and follow it with the
provision of the proposed amendment
which makes the change, indicating
quotations from the present constitu-
ton by the world "Old."

ARTICLE 8, SEC. l3.


Old: SEC. Is In suits at common
law, where the value in controversy ex-
elusive OF interest and costs, exceeds
twenty dollars, the right of trial by n
jury OF twelve men, If required by
either party, shall be preserved; except
that in appeals from the judgment OF
justices, a Jury of less number may
be authorized by law; but in trials OF
civil cases before a justice, no jury shall
be allowed. =
amendment to Section 10.
In suits at common law, where the
value in controversy exceeds twenty
dollars, exclusive of interest and costs,
the right OF trial by jury, if required by
either party, shall be preserved; and in
such suit before a justice a jury may
consist of six persons. No fact tried by
a jury shall be otherwise re-examined
in any case than according to the rules
of the common law.
Note by Ed Register: In explanation OF
the last foregoing amendment, which is
an independently proposition, and may be
either adopted or rejected independent
ly OF the other amendments, as it will
be voted upon separately-it may be
proper to add, that its only object is to
render effective the Amendment to the
Sth Article, increasing the jurisdiction
of justices to $500.
The Constitution OF the United States
gives to any party the right to
demand a jury IN any case involving
$40. Therefore, although the proposed
amendment increasing the jurisdiction
of Justice to $500, should be adopted,
no case involving more than $40 could
be tried before Justice ii either party
demanded a jury, unless the Justice had
power TO impanel jury. Under
the present Constitution he
has no such power, and
hence the necessity for the above amend
ment TO Art. 3. If the amendments to
Art. s should be adopted, and that to
Art. be rejected, it would leave the
justice with jurisdiction up to $500 in
all cases where the parties would be
willing to waive a trial by jury, and
with jurisdiction only in cases not ex-
ceeding $50, where either party de-
manded jury, which perhaps would
not be very bad arrangement.
The foregoing exhibit may be relied
upon as showing all the changes pre-
posed by the constitutional amendments
with the exception of very few unim-
portant changes in phraseology or addi-
ton of words which do not materially
alter the sense of the sections in which
they occur.

has been had in any inferior court, and
