A Beast nj BAY.

Jay Gould, back in New York, 10 let
ting himself out 10 reporters and reminds
one OF snarling bear in pen. His
grievance now is that some Holland bond
holders of the Denver and Kansas Pacific
railroads, whom he has undoubted swind-
led, are trying to have him indicted, and
they are having hard time to get it
done, though the only defense Gould has
Is that the offense is barred by the statute
of limitation. No one ever heard before
that grand jury was expected to settle
questions Of law; and yet a New
York grand jury has already declined to
indict Gould and Sage, on the so.e ground
that the statute OF limitation barred the
punishment Of the offense. The district
attorney seems to have SO advised them,
aud 30 they cannot be blamed much.
But it is quite an unheard of thing that a
grand jury should be asked to say any
thing more than whether, upon the facts
presented, crime appears to have been
committed. II the statute clearly runs
against an offense, the district attorney
should not present an indictment to the
grand jury if there is any doubt about
II, tbs indictment should be found, and
the doubtful question of law be settled in
court. Atpresent one of the judges Of the
criminal court is considering whether he
shall order an indictment against Gould,
and Sage to be again presented to the
grand jury; which seems to be an anom-
alous proceeding, unheard Of out Of New
York.
Gould is evidently very much disturbed
at the prospect of getting into the crimi-
nal court. His son offered one of the
attorneys for the Dutchmen ESQ 600 to be-
tray them; SO Mr.. Andrews, very rep
utable lawyer, says. Perhaps young
George did it on his own hook, when his
pa was away in his yacht, striving with
filial affection 10 make his sire happy.
1t is hard lines, when man with forty
or fifty millions and steam yacht, can
not make himself happy; and just be-
cause he is afraid of a jail. 1t is as unu.
sual for men of this style TO stand in any
dread of a jail as it is forthem not to deserve
it. 1t would be most edfying sight to see
Gould in jail, if he deserves TO be there
and 1t will be unfortunate If statute OF
limitations serves to keep him out. In
this case there was no discovery made
sooner of his rascality, because he and
his confederates were in possession OF
the railroads and their papers, and
no one could find out what they
had done. The statute of Limitations
should not be protection to those who
In positions of trust, have the means O.
concealing their wrong doing. If the!
are to obtain the protection Of such ,
statute, their proceedings must be public

They Do Not Like to See It.

Tha Ne,p Era seems to think that We
especially desire the selection OF Jnstice
Lamar as chief justice and considers
that such a nomination would be very
hed indeed, mainly because Justice
Lamar is from Southern state. We
have never ourselves expressed any de.
sire for the selection of Mr.. Lamar as
chief justice, though we have said that
The president would be likely to select
him. ecause he is believed TO hold him
In very high esteem. 1t is not apparent
that Mr.. Lamar Is incapacitated for
the chief justiceship any more than
for the justiceship, by the fact
that he is Southerner. The Demo-
cratic party's theory 10 that this is re-
stored Union in fact and In name, and
that the Southern citizen has an equal
right with the Northern citizen to public
hcnors and public Office. In testimony
OF this it is most probable that the
Democratic candidate for vice president
will this year come from Southern state.
This may not be agreeable to pig-headed
Republican citizens who cannot realize
that Southerner is quite as good as
they are, because he once was rebel and
fought the Northern soldiers and was
beaten; and now is a member OF Con-
gress and as good citizen of the Union
- anybody. Thick headed Republicans
have not come to realize this yet. When
ever they see Southern citizen put into
= nice office, they feel badly. They feel
badly, it is true, whenever Democrat,
North or South, gets into Office; but when
the happy man is from the South
they think they have an excuse
for feeling sore, and they say that
It hurts their feelings because he was a
rebel and they howl. Fortunately Dem
ocratic candidates are not elected by such
/ votes and it does not much matter now
how the Republican feels because Of his
parting from the flesh pots.
Justice Lamar may not pat-ssns,ate sn,a,tea n very
u !uss'Ces ~ CIilef justice, and we con.
sy that It will surprise us much II he
does, because of his judicial and lega
inexperience; but the fact that he Is Q
Houtherner does not disqualify him moi
ID he barred from the chief justiceship by
being justice, because hundred year
ago the United States Senate did no
want to make Rutledse chief justice
and gave az the reason its fear that con
fiicting ambition among the justices fol
promotion would be harmful in which
there does not seem TO be any good rea
con whatever.

sequently il has been moving along ever
since its incorporation with only one set
OF councilmen.
Under the new municipal law Of May
"a, 1887, Wilkesbarre became, along
with Lancaster, a city of the fifth class.
The councilmen elected under the new
law asked from the court an injunction
restraining the old councilmen from
holding office after April /. Judge Rice,
in denying the Injunction, decided that
the law bringing select and common
councils into office in Wilkesbarre did not
take effect Immediately, but that the old
council retained its function, and under
the old charter 1t had a right to fill
vacancies until the terms of office OK the
respective councilmen shall expire in
1890. Judge Woodward concurred in the
conclusion, and the case will be carried
to the supreme court on writ oil error
In reaching his conclusion JudgesRice
says that though the recent act provides
for the election of select and common
councilmep, he can find nothing. In 1t
to require that such elections are TO take
place irrespective of the fact that there
were no vacancies. lie says that the
properly constituted body to administer
the affairs Of the city are the hold-over
members, those elected at the last cleo
ton to Gil vacancies, and those elected
at the same time as the successors Of
m mamber, whose terms expire on the first
Monday OF April, 1888; all to retire from
Office in 1890.
The decision seems to be sound one ;
and as 1t is probably the best way OF
constituting together two antagonistic
acts, It will doubtless be coDflfmtd by
the supreme court. This hitch Is one ol
many that will arise in driving with the
same pair of reins number of horses of
varying speed and with disposition tc
20 in different directions. To radically
change the municipal machinery Of ye III
by one legislative act is not easy, ant
where number of cities, accustomed tt
considerable degree Of independence
are required suddenly to lie down unde
a charter they did not want, mu ddle
like that occurring in Wilkeslarre ar
inevitable.
Fortunately in the provision for coun
cilmen, Lancaster was well adapted T.
receive the new law. Whether the SAINT
may be said Of other provisions of th
new act will only be developed by time
