In Judge Lees court yesterday there
was again quite a commotion among
those who have been of late inter
viewed by the officers of the law in
that portion of the city called "Chi-
cago."
At 2 O'Clock, or a little past, the de-
PENDANT in the case Of the Territory VS..
David Dreuman, appeared in court with
FIVE witnesses to establish his innocence
of the charge of assault and battery,
alleged to have been committed by him
IN the evening of February 18th, at
the residence OF Lulu Livingston, by
beating and bruising one Miss Sanders,
an inmate of the place run by Miss
Livingstone. As stated yesterday
morning in this paper, he had already
raid two city fines, which amounted in
all to S27, including costs, and this
was the third case growing out of the
same visit co the place alluded to. The
witnesses for the prosecution, Living
ston, Miss Sanders and Jessie Lee,
were present, and a goodly number of
''lookers-on in Venice" were promptly
on hand to listen to the trial.
County Attorney Baird appeared for
the territory, but the defendant had DO
attorney. The evidence on the part of
the prosecution showed that the de-
PENDANT and Frank Anderson came to
said place and were somewhat intoxi-
Gated. Anderson got into a row with
Livingstone, and proceeded to beat and
maltreat her, when the complaining wit
ness came to the rescue of Livingstone
and undertook to make Anderson desist.
Dreuman caught her by the back of
the neck in a very violent manner,
dragged her away and caught and
tightly held her arms. This was about
all that was developed in regard the
charge so far as the witnesses Of the
prosecution could explain the occur
rance. The witnesses on the part Of
the defendant lit is unnecessary to give
their names) told a much different
story.
Three of them testified that they we're
present at the time and saw nothing of
the kind, but did not testify positively
that it could not have occurred without
having been seen by them. The other
two testified that they went there after
the affair had happened and were told
by the girls of the house that there had
been a little trouble, but they said moth
ing about any assault and battery hav-
ing been committed upon any Of their
number.
Mr.. Baird made a few remarks at the
conclusion of the testimony and said
that there might, of course, be a rea-
sonable doubt as to the guilt of the de-
PENDANT, and if 80 the defendant was,
of course, under the law entitled to the
benefit of the doubt. He would leave
the matter with the court, however,
and would not insist as to what the
court ought to do in the matter.
The court fined the defendant 81 and
costs, which were promptly paid and
the defendant discharged.
In the case of the City VS.. HUH, the
defendant pleaded guilty and paid a fine
and costs amounting in all to Sl3.
The defendant in the foregoing case
having made a complaint against Helen
Gray for calling her pet names, thai
young lady's Ease was also attended to.
The defendant pleaded guilty and II
cost her also S13.
Before Judge Fisher, the Ease of the
City VS.. Clouse was called up for trial
The defendant plead guilty and wa
fined IS and costs, which were paid ant
the defendant discharged.

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 10, 1884.



"Chieago" is greatly agitated these
days.
The work of repairing the damage
done to the Mcdaniel block by the re-
cent fire has commenced.
Nearly double the amount of Ice u.s.
ually put up has been harvested and
laid in for next season in this city.
The p~ost-ofice was crowded yester-
day nearly all day, watching for the ex-
pected missive containing what one Of
them termed, a ''picter."
1t was terrible dull in some respects
in the city yesterday. AT all events
there was not much going on which
needed the service of a reporter.
The G. A. R. post is preparing for
the grand ball that is to take place in
Library Hall on the 22nd which will
be on the evening of Friday of next
week.
Dick Richards, formerly of Chey-
enne, is now engaged in mining at the
carbonate camp, ten miles from Dead
wood, Dakota, and, It is said, has
''struck it rich"
At the land office yesterday there was
one presumption entry made by !. W. L.
Slain of 80 acres, n presumption by
Horatio Marty OF 100 acres and also
one desert entry of 4S0 acres,
Thus far no opposition has been in
terposed by any parties that we are
aware of to the local option bill, but
whether the legislature will deem it a
wise measure to adopt yet remains to
be seen.
Notwithstanding hal it is In the
middle of winter, there is a very CON
siderable amount of building going on
in Cheyenne and as soon as spring
opens we may look out for a regular
boom in this line.
Word has been received in Cheyenne
stating that Pearl, the infant daughter
Of Major and Mrs. Glafcke, died In
Denver yesterday. The little thing
was but four months old and had been
q sufferer from its birth. The friends
of the family in Cheyenne extend their
coincidence.

erect a notable building for purposes

a CHANGE NEEDED.

A change is needed in the proceed
ings before the Circuit Court Especi,
ally is this so III reference to the en-
panelllng of the Grand Jury. And the
setting of causes for trial. Under our
present law litegants ale required TO
be read y with their witnesses from the
first day Of court until they can get "a
hearing. Even should their cause be
crowded to the last day or go over for
the term for want Of time. This not
untrequenIy entails needless and nu-
merous expences upon litigants and a..
mounts to an absolute denial OF Justice.
1t Is inconvenient for the attorney and
also for the court and not unfreQuen.-
ly RESULTS IN confusion and waste of
time. If a law day could be arranged
IN advance Of the term to settle issues
at which time the Grand jury could
be summoned and do their work causes
could be set down for trial at a day
certain witnesses could be summoned
for the dav of trial and would not be
compelled to wait for week at time
at great Inconvenience to themselves
AMI rumors cost to the Etigants. The
counties would save thousands of dol
lars each year by such an arrangement
the time for the meetings of the court
IN the Yarlus counties can be so ar
ranged If some of our wise legislators
give thar attention to the subject and
introduce the proper bill. Other states
have this arrangement it is found to
work we'll. If the people stir ue their
representatives to sense of duty on
this subject we can have the change in
our statute the coming session of the

Office soaking is beconeing prevalent
and from the symptoms now manifest
ing themselves there is danger of the
disease breaking out in Oregon. It is
u grand mistake for every one who I'M
ugines himself qualified to fiIl an Office
to. be speaking political preferment.
There arc not offices enough TO so round
and if there were, there wonid not b.
enough left in the private walks Of life
to support them. We lave altogether
to many sinecure position and tive
much red tape in official circles. The
emoluments, perquisites and stealings
in official position are altogether to
large the saletiss are too high for the
amount cf work required. a Abolish
slnicme and needless Offices reduce the
salaries OF the public service to an g.
quality with the wages paid by pri
rate enterprise for Ike amount of ser
vices and it will work radical cure to
the mania for Office which manilests it
self in both the political parties Though
out the United States and will be more
etiectual in purifying the public SER
vice than all the civil service bills.
Congress can pass from now until
doolns-iay. There is net OF should
not be any thing 50 intricate in govern
mental offices but what all intelligent
people can understand and administer
them. There is no reason why one
citizen should not as well fill a public
place as another and We find 70 fault
with any person who is qualified ana
can get there in filling public Office
providing he does so honestly and eco
nomically. One great argument by
sUme who are anxious to pull Others
down in order to make place for them
selves that an aspirant should wait u.I-
til the people call them. At the ST m :
time scheemers will have their strikers
out working popularity fer them when
the petition, letters # recommendation
etc. have been sent to the appoint
ing power and ths commission arrives
they are perfectly surprised to think
that they should have been named for
such position but under the circum-
stances they look upon it as duty to
accep1 and are straightway installed in
the office None but they and their
hired agents have the least idea the a
mount of money it cost them to secure
the place. Often at price ruenous
to their private fortunes do they secure
the coveted place. And not unfre-
quently to recuperate their failing for
tunes do they resort to dishonest practi.
ces that leaves them in ruin and the
public service in disgrace. This can
only be remedied 10y placeing the public
services on par with private enter
prise.
