A WORTHLESS GRAND JURY,

The Special Grand Jury raised to dispose
of the accumulated excise cases and to inves-
tigate the charges made by the City Reform
Club of frauds and violations of law in the
election of last year, madea presentment yes
terday and was discharged.
The conclusions reached by the Grand
Jury in the election fraud inquiry are
remarkable. It is admitted that " there were
Illegal or fraudulent registrations, bribery of
voters and the receipt of brides; !" that
men of known bad character, SOM
of them OK = convicts. were active
workers in behalf of different can
didates," and hat :" there could have been
no object in employing such disreputable
agents except to resort through them to cor
rupt means of influencing the election" But
the Grand Jury believe that Z" at this date" -
less than a year after these infamous crimes
were committed lit would be diff
cult to identify the offenders or to Sc
cure witnesses" So all the Grand
Jury can do is to recommend that
honest citizens give more care to the cleo
tons" Besides, the Grand Jury understands
that lit was never meant SO much to punish
such individual cases as to learn whether
these crimes were committed pursuant to q
conspiracy between people in prominent
positions"
This Grand Jury must either be ignorant
or insincere. Its duty was to ascertain if
crime had been committed and to indict
the criminal. 1t had nothing to do with
procuring witnesses. That would be
attended to by the prosecution. Neither
were the charges submitted to it simply
for a political purpose, to affect persons - in
prominent positions" The presentment adj
piits that the crimes were committed, but fails
to indict the criminals.
1t did not need the cost of a Special Grand
Jury to tell honest citizens" that they
should /" give more care to the elections"

meeting the situation. The line is drawn
very distinctly between the big bakers and
the little bakers.
the great advance in price, which they saw
will probably only be temporary, can be best
met by n reduc ion in the size of the loaves.

Tho Revenge Theory.

To Ne EdWor OF Tho FrtNfn0 World!
/ have been deeply interested in reading
the stories of the Whitechapel murders, and
have given solne thought TO the matter. 1t
seems to Inc that the most plausible theory in
with the subject is that the crimes
were the work Of some man who has suffered
n wrong at the hands of one of these Jt1nnes
dScidss6es and has brooded over it to such an
extent that he has become a monomnniac,
and has tried to revenge himself ON the in
famous sisterhood. / should like very much
to hear the views of some of your rcaders.
Surely the subject is worth discussion.

Few persons have any adequate
idea Of the enormous production
and consumption of malt and dis
titled liquors that is going on in
this country. It is only when the
census returns are carefully collat-
ed and the scattered facts are
brought into their collected aggre-
gate that we gain any real compre-
hension of the actual state of things.
And even then we fail to estimate
this properly because the figures are
so large that they do not impress
us with their astonishing size. One
simple statement will best give an
idea that can be readily grasped
and understood. and that is that
the production Of malt liquors alone
In this country as an industry is
second only in financial Importance
to that of bread -stuffs. This is an
astonishing fact, but the statistics
prove it.
And this growth has been attain
ed by very rapid strides. In 1910
the consumption of malt liquors in
this country was 23.3lO,843 gallons
as reported by the United States
census. In 1886 the consumption
had grown to the enormous amount
of 642, 967, 72O gallons. Put these
figures in another shape. In lS40
the consumption per head OF the
population was 1876 gallons; in 1886
it was Ills gallons During the
same period the use Of distilled
spirits deceased from 2.52 to 1.24
gallons per head.
Tho present annual cost to the
consumer of beer at 80 cents per
gallon, is placed by the census
statisticians at 1904, $50, 683, while
the annual expenditure by the con.
sumers Of all kinds Of liquors is set
down at 500, 100000. These to-
tails are so large that they fall to
produce sufficiently distinct i'm
preston upon the mind oftheir real
and startling magnitude.

TnR Gazette need not be critical
on the subject of the county print
ING. We were aware that s'pro-
posal dodge was resorted to in
1872 by the county board to mislead.
but d it was merely dodge and
never intended to be carried into
effect. we took no account OF it.
The Gazette however is right IN its
statement. that "thc CAPITAL has
on several occasions offered to do
the county printing at Low figure.
The CAPITAL holds itself in readi-
ness 1t eli times to do all sorts OF
printing at low 6gures-honest, fair
legitimate tigures-not figures bas-
ed on party services or political re-
ward. The CAPITAL is no mendi-
cant begging city or county officials
for ..party boodle,' but looks to an
intelligent and discriminating pub
lie for patronage at honest prices,
and gives . full equivalent in return
for the amount OF money received.

The weekly Bruns,picker, in its
article on the marriage of Miss
Ella Grasty to J. D. Crews, of
Danville, Va, gives the following
description ofthe BRIDES trousseau:
The dress of the bride was rich
and beautiful and a little remark
able, since it was composed of ma
terial brought to her from China
about a year ago by her brother, Mr..
Charles FL. Grasty. The color was
between a flesh tint and a rainbow
heliotrope, and changed from one
tint to the other in different lights,
and the dress was composed of a
plain satin combined with a rich
brocade. Nothing could have been
more beautiful and in more perfect
taste, and it was selected in China
by the wife of the English consul.
The costume was made with court
train formed by box plaits falling
from the waist to the floor. The
front was made of the brocade and
had a plated panel of the plain ex-
tending from the waist to the bot
tom Of the skirt, thence up to the
right hip, and after forming a sash,
dropping, was lost in the folds OF
the train. The corsage was high
to the throat with sleeves extending
below the elbows, and met by flesh
celored gloves. A pearl comb in
the hair and diamond eardrops
completed a very rich and lovely
costume and one most becoming
to the delicate blonde beauty Of
Miss Grasty.

In nominating D. r. Francis for
Governor the Missouri Democracy
has made a long step forward.
Francis is a clean, honorable and
longheaded man, who has made a
fortune by his own work, and a
reputation by his own tried char
acter. As Mayor of St. Louis he
was always found on the side OF
decency and good government, and
as Governor of Missouri he will
simply be promoted to a wider
field and to greater opportunities.
He is not a mossback, nor that
peculiar Missouri product, a
''colonel." But he is an excellent,
almost a typical, representative of
the young South, with all it's hopes
and purposes, and his administra-
ton will doubtless be a clear-cut,
honest and able management of the
Office that should mean many an
additional dollar in Missouri's
treasury, and many an additional
settler on Missouri's fertile soil.

There was another cheap John

never patronize their home printer

We furnish note heads bound
in tablets, at 400 for 500 or s2.0C
per 1000. Statements same price;
or 500 note heads and 500 state
ments for $500. The cheap John
man offers to do the work on infe.
rior paper for $3.50, and send you

what you get for 1000. You pay
express and postage. Now how
many cents do you save by rob.
bling the home printer out of the
work? Shame on such niggardness
We could name business mer
whom we ~patronize every day and
pay cash for the goods, and yet
these firms send away from home
for their job printing, and never
put a cent into our hands if they
can help 1t. We are getting tired
of this, and propose to patronize
those who patronize us, or buy oui
| goods ut Mexico or st. Louis. We
have az much right to buy our
goods away from home as business
men have their printing.
