offer; got them at my own price, and they
are the best and nobbiest ever brought to

THE JUDICIARY SYSTEM.

The alleged bribing of judges by Gould
and other eastern railway magnates has
aroused a popular sentiment in favor OF
abolishing our present pernicious Judiciary
system, and the time may soon arrive when
we shall choose our judges by another method
than the present one of nominating them by
party conventions and electing them by popu-
lar suffrage. This method is beyond doubt
the most potent factor in the judiciary
degradation. Do away with it.
The jury system also needs remedying.
Its evils are countless. BY it persons OF real
intelligence are allowed to escape jury service,
while clowns are called on to weigh matters
of vital importance, and, after few moments
deliberation, hazard an opinion on which
sometimes depends that greatest of all in
terests, existence. 1t is this class of jurors
which lawyers prefer, for such jurors are
commonly easily impressed with eloquence
and their ignorance ensures sympathy tor
criminals which would not for an instant be
entertained by men who appreciate the ex-
actions of Justice.

THE LIGHTS ANNIVERSARY.

To-day the EVENING LIGHT is two years
old. Since its birth it has had many difficult
ties to contend with, many obstacles to over
come Its publication was not begun under
the most favorable auspices and at the very
beginning the prediction was general that it
would not live two months. Yet it has lived
and, while older papers, some Of which were
conducted in a really able manner, have turned
up their toes to the daisies, the LIGHT has
become a rather healthy, particularly
vivacious infant The object of the
management has ever been the pre-
servation of the best interests of the great
public by whose patronage it is favored. 1t
has been independent and fearless. Some
times alone it has fought for measures known
to be just and against measures known to be
unjust when it believed its fight was hopeless /;
yet in a majority of instances its efforts have
been rewarded with success. The estimation
in which it is held by the public may be bet
ter understood when it is known that the
LIGHT now has on each day of publication a
