Sherman Has Talked Twice.

At Peru, Indiana, on Friday, John
Sherman talked for his second and last
time in support of Harrison and Morton.
He had only spoken once before in the
campaign, and seemed quite conscious of
the fact that in this struggle he
could not be active in support
sof his party without fatally
damaging his reputation for long head
and financial genius. He preferred to
allow the plumed knight to prance un-
rivalled at the head of the party; and it
r. easy to imagine his satisfaction over
the wreck of that gentleman's reputa-
tiQn and the disaster that threatens
his man Harrison. This second speech
of John Sherman was not remarka-
bic, and was plainly nothing but
. move to keep an oar in with the
party SO that he may still be considered

Bat One Trial For murder.

Xho supreme court OF Pennsylvania has
(nt decided that one tried for murder,
s ut not convicted because the jury could
~ agree, cannot be again tried for the
1870 offense. The court says: There
S1oy b. room to doubt the wisdom of the
4 n1titutional PROVISION In its present
I'm, but there |, no room for discussion
~ - It's effect. The consequence Is that
p defendant, charged with taking the
( - Of his fellow man, goes out Of court
il "a out Of reach of justice because of the
1s1ake Of law made after an honest,
Enlnstaking effort to be right. The judg-
Ednent entered upon the demurrer was
xight and IL therefore now affirmed"
Just what the court means by speak,
Ing Of q mistake made, in law 1--WE do
not understand. If it means that the
0oustitutional provision is a mistake, we
10 mot agree with it. That provision is.
tie same that has been ,embodied in the
NV from time immemorial almost, al d
simply declares that " no person shall for
The same offense be twice put in jeopardy
of life and limb"
Nor do we agree, as the court afiirms,
Z thAt there Is no room for discussion as
% the effect" of this constitutional pro-
vision. Our understanding has been that
lt Is generally construed to mean that no
one shall be tried again for an offense of
which he has been acquitted, the "twice
q jeopardy" being awarded a judicial
c0nstruction intended to suit the judicial
! Idea of the fitness of things.
This is trick that judges have. They
often decide laws not according to their
letter but according to what they think
should be their intent , and they are not
nolicitous either to inquire what the
intent of the law makers was; they
are content 10 find what they think their
Intent should have been; and hence comes
the judicial legislation Of which we have
I 70 much, and of which very
4 atrikipg illustration is afforded in
the Interpretation put ly the
courts of Pennsylvania upon the
murder statute, which declares that
only premeditated killing" such as by
1 poisoning, lying in wait or such deliber-
B ate act, shall be murder in the first de-
gree.
This plain law our courts have
- construed away as to hold to be
guilty Of the first degree of murder, any,
-od1e Who Kills another after he has had a
moment of " cooling time," In which he
might receive from fit of passion even
though he did not. The undoubted pur-
pose Of the legislature, to punish with
death only the poisoner, assassin and the
: undoubtedly deliberate murderer, has
been SO changed by the courts as to hang
those who slay in anger, intoxlcation and
upon impulse.
There is not likely to be any great harm
done by the present decision that one
Z trial Is all that can be given for murder.
Il n jury disagrees the presumption is
1 that there is enough doubt in the case to
entitle the prisoner to go free. The law

reasonable doubt, and we know nothing
that should be more satisfactory evi.

In Despair.

The Republican extremity Is illustrated
by the way in which the party organs
hang on TO the Sackville letter, which has
long since flashed in the pan. Like the
gun that was taken out to kill the plover,
it but knocked its owner over. 1t gave
the president chance to please the Irish
element in the proper discharge of his
duty, and he did it and will get Its vote.
There is no doubt at all of this
condition OF things, but the New
York Tribune, the Philadelphia Press,
and the other Republican journals that
are now engaged in following their
leader, still put the Sackville correspond.

When we come to think the average
Washington county citizen is as dead to
any public enterprise as an Egyptian
mummy that slumbered in the still cold
arms of death for 5000 years, we have a
complete solution of the reason why this
is the richest and yet the poorest country
in the universe, and why Wciser is one of
the best naturally located, yet the poor
est, towns on the coast.-Weiser Leader.
Just so. And you have a com
plete solution of the causes that re-
tard the development of more coun-
ties than one in Idaho territory ;
counties possessed of every natural
advantage; rich soil, abundance Of
water and timber, vast grazing lands
and exhaustless mineral veins. The
AVERAGE citizen of some of them
seems to be laboring under the con-
viction that he is helpless and must
WAIT! But fortunately Idaho HAS
citizens who are men Of action and
are daily doing all in their might
to bring the resources and hidden
treasure of these hills into state
of growth and development and
open the broad plains to settlement.
Idaho has the reputation of being
slow, but it is no fault Of her re-
sources; and the advent, within the
past few years, of railroad facilities
is creating a decided revolution in
the nature of things. With the
railroad have come many new and
enterprising people; people whose
ears have not become elongated
by incessant companionship with
mules-the only locomotives of for
mer times-and who let no moss
gather on their backs.

this we should have a candidate for
