THE CANYON ROAD.

There has been some sharp practice
in the trial of this celebrated case dur
ing the past week. Certain interested
parties gave evidence as to the con
struction and width of the road
Thereupon Judge Strahan asked that
the jury might inspect the road, which
motion was granted by the court.
This was on Saturday night. On sun
day morning the employees of the
Douglas County Road Co. were out fix-
ing, as far IS possible, the road 10 ii
might agree ia measurement with the
testimony given when the jury came
to look at it. More than this, when
the jury went through the canyon, we
are Informed, stakes were placed
/ marking the road, and when the jury
returned to complete their measure
ment, il was found that the stakes haG
not only been removed, but thrown
away. There is certainly a case of per
Jury somewhere In this matter, o.
some one tried to improve the road t,
suit their testimony and correct tn,
faults Of their memories. In eithe
case one must suppose that there ma!
be discrimination upon this point
but who will say 1t is a discrimination
with . difference.
