Where "Lady.banss" do bud and climb;
And 10 the scene mine eyes did greet,
Where stars shine and the flowers meet.
The curly head was nestled low,
And hidden from the stars, I'm sure,
Were those blue eyes, yelled ina mist.
And rosy lips were lingering kissed
Two strong arms were folded round

Two eyes were beamlng with such love

jurors are disqualified, the motion is
in the nature of a challenger, and
The burden is on the challenge to
show its validity. These married
ladies have been returned by the
Sheriff as qualified jurors, obedient
to the exigency of his writ. He is
presumed to have done his duty and
returned qualified persons. This
presumption is open to rebuttaI.
But it is not re6utted, it seems to
me, by showing that these jurors
are wives living with their husbands.
Non constat that they are not house,
holders. Though the rule be to
presume that any particular piece Of
property, in possession of husband
or wife, is community property, 1
think we should 60 too far if we
should presume that all property in
possession and use in their household
is such; and as to children, if there
is to be presumption on the SUBJ
ject, I suppose it would not be that
wife living with her husband has
none, or none in the household, for
VIGOROUSLY the contrary is oftener
the case.
l conceive the true intent OF our
statute to be, to put every wife into
that position in the household which
a wife ought to occupy, that of COM
panion and helpmeet of her husband,
sharing not theoretically, nor senti-
mentally, nor by bis bare suffer
ance, but practically by command
of the commonwealth, his cares, his
responsibilities, his authority and
his rule. Lest the full intent should
not be literally carried out, it is
provided expressly that the rule OF
common law that statutes in deroga-
ton thereof are to be strictly con-
construed, has no application to
this chapter"
On the whole, my strong impress
sion is that this motion is not sus-
tanned by the showing made, and
that, therefore, it must be denied.
So ordered.

IT seems that ring politicians have
generally been left out in the cold
by the popular conventions this
year. Harvey Scott, of the Oregon
ian. goes to Chicago as a proxy,
where he could not 60 as delegate,
not alone from bis we'll. known anti
Blaine sentiments, but his unpopu.
larity in Oregon. So far a. his in.
Ausnce goes. the people will be mis-.
represented, oil owing to the PERM.
cious system which allows stool
pigeons.to be put up in conventions
whereby the people may be deprived
Of their choice. There is scarcely q
convention held in this Territory,
but use 10 made Of this means to
foist some Of the ring leaders into
places where they eau dictate the
candidates and the policy of the
party. This was done at the last
Territorial Convention. when the
leading spirits were not delegates
chosen by the people, but proxies
sent by the machine politicians.
The action Of Mr.. Scott in the Chi
cago Convention is awaited with
considerable interest by the duped
people.

Very true, friend Nal; provided
that is tho issue fairly stated; but
fortunately the people have enough
sense no, to be misled by such false
premises or the sophistry by which
the demaeogue hopes to ride into
lower on the cost Of public opinion.
The effort 20 make the Northern Pa.
cifc any more Of a land.srabbing
corporation than it was few
months ago, when everybody was
throwing up his hat over the last
spike and shouting hoztnnabs 70
Willard, will be futile. 1t was then
regarded as the cause Of the breeze OF
prosperity which had sent real estate
values up into the realms of cloud
land, and the people seem to have a
lingering faith yet that railroad en-
terprise is their chief reliance for
whatever OF hope there there is for
the future. II it has enhanced the
value Of land a hundred or thou
sand fold. is it not base ingratitude
on the part of these same land own
ers to now attempt to burn the
BRIDE over which they have safely
passed?
The land grant was made by a Re-
publican Congress. If it is wrong
in principle; iii robs the people OF
their inheritance, as glib orators and
ready scribes 80 stoutly maintain; il
it fosters soulless monopoly. as we
have 80 lately discovered, surely
that party is responsible for the in
ception Of the project, and its sup.
port until we are in possession Of
much Of the good it was designed ia
promote, aud nobody can blame
such Democrats as choose to asser,
that they have lingering respect
for the old.time theory that con.
tract should be construed in a liberal
spirit, aud it's obligations met with
candor and justice.
Tho Mail is right. Nobody will
be elected who is not on the side oil
tho people, but the people them.
selves will take special care that they
