A Fable.

A wolf who had arrived at n good
old age and M longer felt able to 60
out and play TIE string-game en- the
INNOCENT and Unconhding, called
his Son t. him one day and said:
"My cautankerous Offspring, am
growing old. am stifIin the joints.

The Son hnmbIy agreed, and the
Old Wnlf continued:

ments, t. lay Ivy some Sugar for MY

"Excelirnt idea, Governor-very
excellent" replied the Son, anl he
went out behind the house tn crack
his heels and poke himself in the

That same evening the Old VOL

A special to the Herald from Lon
don says, Professor Tyndall makes
public the results of experiments
made by DIR. Koch, of Berlin, on tu-
bercular disease. 1t was known be-
fore that the disease was commune
cable, but Koch has ascertained the
exact nature of the parasite which
causes consumption. He has propa-
gated it artificially and killed animals
with parasites thus produced. The
matter expectorated from the lungs of
consumptive persons has been found
to be swarming with parasites which
are highly infective. Tyndalps OBJ
ject is to protest afresh against legis-
lation which prohibits in England ex-
periments such as enabled Koch to
make these discoveries, but it is hoped
that Koch will develop a harmless
form of the tubercular parasite which,
by inoculation, may prevent con-
sumption, and thus check scourge
which according to Koch's calcula-
ton, carries off fone-seventh of the hu-
man race.

streams and estuaries; the shores are
not so abrupt as to prevent easy hand
ling of the timber; the harbors are nu-
merous, deep and we'll sheltered; the
hardships, losses and delays incident
to severe winters are unknown; logs
may be fioated down the river with
out danger of sudden rise and the
breaking of "booms," by clearing the
river channels of drift, logs and lum-
Der may be ran out for long distances,
and RATS may be towed with ease on
the waters of the sound with only the
ebb and flow of the tide to consider in
moving them to points of shipment.
In this way loggers bring logs from
all the bodies oftimber along the shore
lines to the mills and dispose of them
at fair rates to the owners. This gives
employment to hundreds of working
men. There are still very many de-
sirable places for establishing not on
lyl saw-mills, but factories for the
manufacture of barrels, pals, house
trimmings, doors, sashes, blinds,
holdings, and every other article
made of wood. These opportunities
are not confined to Puget Sound.
They exist along the harbors and bays
of the entire coast of Washington
Territory and Oregon, and are only
used as yet to comparatively small
extent. For some purposes, and par
ticularly in the manufacture of beau
tiful household furniture, the orna-
mental woods of Oregon are unsur-
passed.

Considerably more than half of the
senators Of the United States are law
yers. The same is true of the house.
There are SO of the profession in the
former body and 1875 in the latter. In
the senate but three members arc
classed as professional politicians, and
in the house but nineteen. 1t would
not far from the fact, perhaps, if more
of the lawyers were classed as profess
ional politicians.

Change in the Jury Law.

There is great need for change in
the jury law. When twelve men are
called as Jury to sit in Judgment, a
majority of such jury should convict
or acquit. The majority law is good
enough for anyone. In the matter of
elections the minority controls. When
the present Jury system now in opera
ton in the United States was first
brought out in Great Britain, where
it originated, it was thought to be a
scheme whereby court favorites could
be run through the farce of trial and
the populace appeascd. The idea that
jury should be unanimous was con-
sidered as a safeguard to those. who
had means for the purchase of friend
ship or obstinacy. The law has for
years worked as expected. Tens of
thousands of criminals have escaped
punishment through the actions Of
hung juries, or those which fail to
agree unanimously, and other thous-
ands will escape by this means, so
long as the present jury system con-
tinues.
The law should be changed. A ma
jority should decide. When the ma
jority speaks, the utierance should
have weight. The majority of votes
elect man to Office. The majority
of jury is sufficient to determine a
verdict. Therefore, let the law be
changed.
AT the next session of the Legisla-
turc let some progressive man go to
the front with the above idea-with
bill to repeal the old law that n
jury must be unanimous-and for a
new law to the effect that a majority
of jury shall acquit or convict
