Trial by Jury.

has this to say about the present sys-
tenn of trial by jury: "We honestly
believe that new law is now eeded.
Under the present system one villain
upon jury is equal to eleven honest
men, and may in all cases, even ofthe
most fragrant nature, defeat tic ends
of justice and run the country to end
less expense by making mistrials

Speers injunction case was antici-
pated, and did not surprise any one.
In fact, had he given any other, it

sentences during the progress of the
cause which plainly showed his drift
while attending circumstances aside

quite apparent. The judge evi-

NIalEing a Meal of Tommy.

On Tuesday morning Mr.. Jesse
Cole left home with his team, hauling
rock. Mrs. Cole sent Tommie, the
eldest boy (who is small for his age),
to feed a bitch tied under the bank.
When Tommie arrived where the
slut was tied, he found their dog
lying beside her. The dog growing
at him, and he not suspecting danger,
picked up little stone and cast it at
the dog to drive him away, when the
dog sprang Upon him and threw him
to the ground. The dog was large
and powerful, and in his fury began
tearing him in a frightful manner
The cries of Tommie brought his
mother and Willie e. in fact, all the
children - when they did all they
could to pull the dog off. Finally
Willie struck him with stick, wher
he let 60 of Tommie aud sprang on
Willie, pressing him to the ground
Mrs. Cole and all the children fought
desperately, but could do nothing
until the dog got satisfied and slunb

Tommie's right arm was literally tori
to pieces and both bones of the fore

The Government or the Taxing. Dis
trIct and Its Revenue-The Rate OF
TaXatfon-TaX-PaYers to be
Invited to Pay mp I'm
mediateIy.

The legislature has raised the rate of taxa
ton in Memphis from 81 03 TO 81 Is on the
hundred dollars. The tax Is as follows:
Police, zoe. on the 800 worth of property;
FIRE, 20c.; lighting, 10c.; schools, 10c.2S sanl-
tary and streets, Soc. and the privilege tax;
hospital, SC. and the poll tax. Total, 81 Is.
with privileges and poll taxes. The rate Of
taxation under the old city government was
50 10, and privileges and poll taxes. The valu-
alton OF 1878 on realty and personally was on
$l9,000,000 This has been taken as basis
of valuation by the legislature with ten per
cent off, which would be ST, 10000 for
1879. AT the rate Of taxation at 81 ID, the
revenue on the above ought to be $20l .25O.
But probably one-foIrth Of the above $780,
312) Cannot be collected, then the actual
revenue for 1879 would he about $151, 900 in
round numbers. From privileges will be re-
ceived between $4,000 aud $40, 900, making
the revenue about $4,000. The tsx-books
for the year 1879 will be ready about the last
of next week, when tax payers will be in
vited to step up and pay their taxes, the taxes
being already due. Many large Taxpayers
have promised 10 pay Immediately, so as to
enable the new government to pay the police
and fremen and meet all other necessary ex-
penses. Every good citizen should help the
new government.
