of no system by which the work
could be better done, set we CON
sidercd the result OF the present

and in a lengthy article, attempted
to show that no change is needed.

resist the conclusion that they are

No Bill.

During the present Term of the
of the Court the Grand JURY have
failed to find true bills in Il number
Of cases. Among them arc some
for retailing liquor, libel and as
sault and battery.
The facts connected with somc
of the cases have been generally
known and commented upon
throughout the county for SOM"
time. Various and conflicting orin-
ions have been expressed as to
what would be the verdict Of the
jury upon the trial, but no one
thought it possible thnt the guilt or
innocence of the persons accused
would not be established because
of Il failure on thcpart of the Grand
Jury to find Il true bill. We
have no right to criticiSr this action,
and we have no desire to Go so,
because it is impossible for Us to
know what evidence they had be-
fore them. The deliberations of
the Grand Jury are not known to
the public and we must presume
that they did their duty, and that
sufficient evidence TO establish i
prhn0 .facie case was not before
them. Whether the witnesses for
the State by any means withheld
evidence, or the jury misc0nccivcd
their duty, it is unfortunate that
the cases referred to should have
terminated in this manner. Whom
ever the people arc led to believe
that thcEc is 4 strong probability
of II violation of law, and by amy
e the matter fails to be tho
roughly investigated, the accused
person cvadcs the ordeal Of Il pub
lie trial, " where any circumHtAn-
Sappcar that SnvorS ofinCGudlitN,
the inVariable tendency is to ere
ate distruSt in the machinery Of the
courts. 1t leads to lyncll-laW and
disturbs the peace and good order
of society generally.
While Grand Jurors act as con
SENATORS of The public peace, and
should protect all persons against
whom no pria0 fOcic caSc exists,
against the annoyance of q trial,
yet it should be borne i'll mind that
they have no such discretionary
powers as to decide upon the guilt
nor innocence of the accused; nor
is it their province, after they arc
satisfied as to Il primo .fuci" case, to
smother the matter upon any
other ground.
AS SOC as the probability Of tic
offence is established, then the dis
cretionarypowrrSo fthc Grand Jury
must end. The curse which they
should pursue is marked out by the
law. If there L circumstances
which would excuse the violation
of law, it is Il matter which be-
longs to another branch of The
court, and With which the Grand
Jury have nothing to DO.
AS we have said, we cannot
know the chuac for the action OF
the Jury in the = referred to,
and we T. bound to presume they
did their duty, as those Who COM
pose this jury are true men. They
arc men of intelligence and doubt
less need no instructions as to their
