What do you think the beautiful
word "wlfe" comes from? 1t is the
great word IN which the English and
Latin languages conquered the
French and Greek. hope the French
viii! some day get word for it in
stead of femme. But what do you
think 1t comes from? The great
value of the Saxon words is that they
mean something. Wife means
"weaYer." You must either be house.
wives or house moths; remember
that. In the deep sense, you must
either weave mems fortunes and en-
broider them, OF feed upon and bring
them to decay. Whenever true
wife comes, home is always around
her. The stars may be over heI
head, the glow-worm in the nights
cold grass ne the fire At her feet, but
home is where she is, and for noble
woman it stretches far around her

The two Dakotas made new and
sensible departure in their jury sys-
TEN. BY the law of those states,
where nine of the twelve jurors In
any case agree, their decision will be
accepted as verdict. This will
make it impossible for one man to
annul the decision of eleven, which
is frequently done under the plan
which prevails in other states. 1t ls
to be presumed that the united judg-
ment of nine jurors is more accurate
and reliable than that of three men,
and the rule will hold generally
good, providing, of course, that the
minority does not absorb all of the
intelligence of the jury. By vesting
the balance OF power in single in
dividual it becomes practicable for
shrewd and designing attorneys to
secure the admission to the jury box
of at least one person who can be
controlled or corrupted, and thus the
ends of justice may be easily and cer-
tainly defeated. The time, labor and
expense involved In the preparation
of important cases are frequently rem
dered valueless by disagreements
which often hinge upon the view
which one or two Jurors may take of
the law aud the evidence, in OPPOSE
ton to the remaining eleven or ten.
The Dakota plan, to all lnlents and
purposes, preserves inviolate the
right of the citizen to trial by his
peers, by making a verdict contin-
gent upon the agreement of three
fourths of the jury, but it corrects
the evils which interiors seriously
with the administration of Justice,
and with the prompt transaction of
business in the courts. 1t is an ex-
pertinent which is worthy of the pro-
gressive spirit of the great north
west. The system appears to be cor
rect in principle, and it is believed
that it will prove to be satisfactory
in practice.-Las Vegas Optic.
