MIR. ROSBOKOUGH'S MEMORANDUM.

Judge Broderick Di>poses Of 1t by Re.
fusing to Re.submit-His Reasons in
Full.
Some weeks ago, it will be remem-
bered, Judge Rosborough, having
been unable to induce the Grand Jury
to see the necessity for criminal pro-
ceedings in certain matters, submitted
a memorandum to Judge Brodt rick,
of which the following is copy:
Now comes J. B. Rosborough, here
tofore appointed, on suggestion of
the Grand Jury, to act as special Dis
trict Attorney for the time being, in
the investigation Of certain matters
indicated by the jury, and asks the
Court to submit to subsequent Grand
Jury, for further investigation, the
following matters considered by the
present Grand Jury, viz:
l. Charges of extortIon against the
present Assessor and Collector Of AL
turas county;
Z. Charges of extortior against the
present Sheriff of the county;
3. Charges of willful and corrupt
misconduct IN office of the County
Commissioners of said county;
4. Charges of extortion against the
present District Attorney of said
county;
5. Charges of malfeasance and cor
ruption in the management of the
County Hospital, the admission of pa
TENTS therein contrary to law, and the
making, allowance and payment OF
illegal claims against the county i'll
that behalf.
Judge Broderick held the document
under advisement until last evening,
when he ordered it filed, together with
his reasons for refusing to re-submit,
which are as follows:
l do not deem it best to re. submit
these matters to a subsequent Grand
Jury, for the following reasons:
l. Because the questions have been
investigated by one jury, and are OF
their report.
2. If any money has been wrong
fully paid out, the law provides fol
recovering it in civil action, and
this would, in my Judgment. be less
expensive to the county than an.
other course which could be pursued

MIR. ROSDOROUGH'S MEMORANDUM.
r. Being about to adjourn court prior
TO his departure for the East, to bring
out his family, Judge Broderick last
evening fled with the clerk of bis
Court the memorandum heretofore
submitted by j. b. Rosborough, the
Salt Lake attorney who was employed
to assist the last Grand Jury in their
Investigations, together with his rea-
sons for refusing to re-submlt the
matters referred to in the momoran.
dunn.
This finally disposes of the business
before the last Grand Jury, in so far
As criminal proceedings are con-
cerned and we are glad of it. Had
Mr.. Roshorough been allowed to have
his way, a half.dozen indictments
would have been drawn up, and suf6.
cient legal grounds found upon which
to base prosecutions; but a conviction
would have been impossible, and the
net result, the only result, would have
been the expenditure of $4,000 to
$4,000 of the taxpayers money with
out any benefit whatever resulting
from such an outlay.
We cannot, of course, know all the
reasons which actuated Mr.. Rosbor-
ough in demanding the indictments,
but we are sufficiently familiar with
county affairs to be able to state that
there positively exists NO EVIDENCE
OF CORRUPTION. True, the TIMES
has repeatedly complained of certain
matters in months past but all these
we're righted as soon as denounced by
us, or put a stop to.
For instance, the TIMES complained
Of the District Attorney for charging
fees in cases in which he did not ap.
pear. When the articles referred to
were published, Mr.. Bruner called on
the TINES editor, aud showed him
the section upon which the charges
were based. The editor thereupon
consulted several attorneys in this
city, nearly all of whom expressed
the opinion that the District Attorney
was right. That official, being APP
priced of the result Of our investiga-
tons, thereupon said that, although
he claimed to be entitled to the fees.
and other attorneys agreed with him,
he would not, in future, make any
charges in cases wherein he did not
appear. That, of course, was all the
TINES had contended for.
Again, the TINES complained of the
cost OF maintaining the INDECENT sick,
and kept up its complaints for some
days. Finally, Messrs. Morrill, and
Vanlandingham, two of the County
Commissioners, who were in Haley at
the time, assured the editor that at the
next meeting Of the Board steps would
be taken 20 reduce it. This has been
done and the service will now be per-
formed for 1880, Sin the lump" per
year-wh;ch is the lowest amount for
which it can be Cone for the ensuing
year.
But although the TINES complained
as stated, it did not charge, and never
believed, that there was any corrup.
ton or malfeasance on the part Of the
county officials. If it had believed
that ther" was any, it would not have
waited for the Grand Jury to ex,

Remedy for Lockiaw.

A correspondent ofthe Scientific American says:
"Let any one who has an attack of lockjaw take
small quantity of turpentine, warm it and pour it
on the wound, no matter where the wound is, and
relief will follow in less than minute. Nothing
better can be applied to a severe cut or bruise
than cold turpentine; it will give certain relief
almost instantly. Turpentine is almost sovereign
remedy for Group. Saturate piece of flannel
with it and place the flannel on the throat and
chest, and in every three or four drops
on a lump of sugar may be taken inwardly.
Every family should have bottle on hand"

The corn crop is somewhat backward, but the

Charge With Robbery.-Samuel Bollinger
has caused the arrest of Thomas N. Ford and a
man named VIM. Baker, whom he charges with
having robbed him of s53. Ford is proprietor of
the "Harford House," on the Falls road, near the
Maryland Central R. R. Station, and Bollinger
charges that he lost the money while in his saloon.
Both men were released on $3.50 security each by
Justice Dorsey. 1t is believed that the charge is
entirely groundless and that if Bolinger lost the
money he did it while he was intoxicated and
that Ford and Baker were in no way blameable.

bill for an injunction against Geo. Fox to restrain
him from interfering with the compliments in

states that the compliments rented their farm to
the defendant, reserving the dwelling house, dairy,
stabling and pasture for one horse and one cow
that during the winter the compliments resided
in the city, and that when they returned to their
dwelling house the defendant had taken forcible
possession of part of it, and also refused to allow
the compliments to have stabling or pasture;
that he also threatens to pillow up the land.
Judge Fowler granted the injunction.

With celery, sauces and mince pie"

The tramp has become quite numerous in this
neighborhood lately and is n nuisance generally.
Two weeks since, one pretending to be from the
Holy Land, made his appearance with brief
stating he was trying to support his mother and
sisters he had left behind. He was very bold and
would not leave till money was given him. We
know of one gentleman who had great sympathy
for him, "because he came from the place of our
blessed Savior's birth and was Christian" We
have grave doubts as to his being Christian,
only using that q pretext to get money, as we
heard of his being caught in the neighbors' fowl
houses and diaries. He is like the Savior in one
thing it appears, e., che had nowhere to lay his
head"
We have been requested to say the Rev. A. M.
Reilly will not preach at Fork, Sabbath next, Aug.
