Crimes Ignored by a Grand Jury.

OTTUMwA, Ia. Jan. 2O-The county grand
jury was discharged to-day. 1t ignored charges
against five well known citizens arrested for
the recent lynching of Pleasant Anderson. The
jury indicted no one for the lynching, and the
prosecutor asked that the case be again referred
to the jury. The court took the matter under
advisement, and will probably refer it to a flu
ture grand jury. The judge took occasion to say
to the jury that he regretted very much that
they had been unable to present an Indictment
in the case. The jury also ignored all violations
of the prohibitory law.

sum of all vilainies-slavery. But the man
of whom speak neither hestated nor doubted.
His instincts were right then as they have
always been He boldly espoused the cause of
freedom, and in the year that followed it found
no more able or eloquent advocate. When the
time came that slavery, defeated at the bal
lot box, sought to obtain by force of arms escape
from the doom that had been pronounced upon
it by the enlightened judgments and copsciences
of the people, he was again not found among
those who hesitated what course loyal man
should pursue. He was bold and earnest
defender and advocate of the war for the Union
and liberty to all men. He was friend to the
soldier when the soldier needed friends. During
the stormy period of reconstruction, when the
friends of Union and Liberty were struggling
to preserve by legal and constitutional enact
ments the great achievements of the war, and
dedicate the policy of the nation in the
future to equal rights to all men, as it had been
in the past perverted to prescription and oppres-
sion, he, although not in public life, was yet to
be found upon that side of the controversy upon
which the better conscience of the people was
arrayed. Upon the great issues involving the
financial policy of the government, he has been
conspicuously right, as has been demonstrated
by the success admitted by even the opponents
of the policy he supported. He is man of ripe
scholarship, an able lawyer. thoroughly trained
and equipped statesman, equal to the successful
discharge of any trust the people may
devolve upon him. His public career has ex-
tended over period of many years. period
in which partisanship has been bitter and as
persion of the private and official characters of
men in public life, all too common and of the
cruelest kind 1t is with pride that his party asso
ciates can truly say that he has PASSED through
this ordeal without a suspicion having ever

be spoken of any man, public or private
