THE CORRUPTION.

So outrageous have the manipulations Of
the bosses and the kBaVes become in San
Francisco that nearly all see them. There
is no difference Of opinion in the premises.
The lawyers in San Francisco know all
about it, They know that it is difficult to
obtain grand or petty jury which cannot
be controlled by the bosses or by the use of
money. How is it then that some of our
Judges do not seem to realize the situation?
Are they so ignorant as not to see what all
others see? Or are they callous to public opin-
ion, or do they believe the knaves outnumber
the honest men in San Francisco, and that
if they expect to be continued in office they
must coneilate the knaves? We believe
that a change will take place; that the
knaves cannot rule San Francisco much
longer as brazeny as they have been doing.
There will surely come time when honest
men will have an influence in the selection
of candidates for Office as we'll as in the
management Of our juries and courts.
The morning call., 1891-10-04
THE SUPREME COURT.

It Is a melancholy sign Of the times that
So much anxiety should prevail regarding
the action Of the Supreme Court this week.
Two appeals will be made to it, one by the
Attorney General, the other by the witness
Havmoud. to decide the questions whether
Judge Wallace had a right to call upon an
e iser t. ill up his Grand Jury, and whether
a witness before that jury has right to
refuse to answ er questions on the ground
that in his opinion. the jury was improperly
impaneled. Both law and common sense
indicate how these questions should be an
swered, but people by no means feel sure
that the Supreme Court will so answer
them. One meets people who believe that
the majority of the court may fud excuses
for answering them otherwise.
These apprehensious are probably I'M
-ndad 1t would be too diSheartening to
scover that the highest judicial tribunal in
the State is arrayed on the side of those who
desire to suppress the truth for fear Of its
consequences upon individuals. The aim
of every judicial officer should be to elicit
tue truth, at all hazards. 1t will not be be-
lieyed that the members of the Supreme
Court are capable OF taking a different view
Of their duty until they have actually done
SO.
The boodIers' plan Of campaign is dis
closed by their organs. They want thepres-
ent Grand Jury declared illegal, on a
technically, and new Grand Jury drawn
by some person who is supposed to be their
friend If shat were done no man in his
senses believes that the Grand Jury so
drawn would prosecute the pending move
ment against corruption. 1t would be like
nearly all the other grand juries which have
sat since the present era of corruption be-
gan. 1t would contain friends of the cor
ruptionists, and persons too timid to find in
dictments against men whose trial might
evoke scandal. 1t would find true bills
against a few burglars and murderers and
commercial swindlers; but it would throw
out indictments against those who have
been directly or indirectly concerned in the
purchase aud sale of votes in the Legislature
OF Board Of Supervisors. That is the result
which will flow from decision of the Su-
preme Court pronouncing the present Grand
Jury an illegal body.
II is for the members Of the Supreme
Court to decide whether they can afford to
pay this part in the pending uprising
against Tascality.
The morning call., 1891-10-04
En1GEANTs AND IMMIGRANrs.

The Los Angeles Herald anticipates that
the action of the Grand Jury in that county
may cause a tide Of emigration not unlike in
cause and effect that recently witnessed in
this city. Unfortunately it is sometimes
necessary to induce little emigration as
preliminary to a much larger immigration.
After aseertaining the conditions of soil
and climate, the next question asked by
persons casting about for a home is as to
the government. What is the state of the
public debt? What per cent of the taxable
property of the State is required for public
expenses? Is the money raised by taxation
honestly expended? If these questions
meet with favorable response the immi-
grant is secured. In many cases some sac
rfce would be made in respect to soil and
climate to secure honest government Good
schools, an efficient police and fire depart
ment, well paved streets and excellent
county roads are the natural results Of an
honest expenditure of public money. An
American community never objects to
reasonable taxation 50 long as the public
money is wisely spent.

The annual report is being prepared, and
this is one of the things with which he was

New York News: MT. Louis Meri- fond of telling of large black snake that was fast friend of his for many months.
 My first acquaintance with the snake, :" said he, "came about when went on a solitary fishing excursion. I was in the habit of taking small punt on stream in the northern part of the state. After fishing the stream I always moored the punt in the same place, and stepping ashore proceeded to clean the fish that I had caught. While thus engaged this black snake came from beneath a rock, and after quietly looking me over pro- ceeded to make meal of the refuse from the fish. He then retired. The next day I found him waiting for me when I return ed, and after that we became great friends. It was not long before he would glide in- to the punt, and coiling himself up go fishing with me. Inever did anything to offend him, and he evinced no fear of me. One day was unable to go on the stream, but gave directions to two friends who de- sired days fishing where to find the punt, but neglected to mention my friend the snake. As they approached the boat they were mortified to see the large reptile gliding toward them. In fear and anger one of them raised large stone, and dropping it crushed the life out of my whilom companien. When heard of ii I was angry and sorehearted for a long time over the loss of my curious pet.''

THE PRESS this week enters its 34t

THE PRESS this week enters its 34th
 year, and appears in new "dress suit" of type. There are other changes, including enlargement in size. These changes are intended as improvements, and we hope that the readers will approve them to be such. The Press is not-never will be- all that we could desire, but we try to keep pace with all opportunities for it's betterment. The field is not large one.
 The best constituency for weekly coun- try newspaper is fourishing agricultu- ral community. There is stability of population among agriculturalists not to be found in one of artisans, who are more transitory and become less attached to local institutions and interests. This sec- tion of Holland county is largely made up of communities of operatives, usually a irons and workers for local improvement.
 It Is upon such class The Press relies, and considering the sparseness of tho pop ulation of so many of our towns, feels making the communities of Holland county prosperous and better, in providing means for elevating the people, by educating the rising generations, and by providing ob- ject lessons of good works of the present for the emulation of the future genera tions, The Press extends the hand of fel- lowship. ..< 7:

A COMMUNICATION sent us in regard to the nolling of the case against Landlord Ryan of the Rockville House we cannot give in full, because it contains insinua- tions and indirect charges that we should not wish to print unless backed by evil dence. But we quote from it to the fol- lowing extent:
 '"The circumstances of Dunns swearing In the police court that he was 23 years of age does not make him so. It only goes to show that the Rockville police were not smart enough to find out the truth of the matter. If they had gone to the rec Ords kept in the same building they would have found that Dunn was 21 years of age Feb. 9th, 1891. We always supposed the last person to go to for evidence against a man would be that mans attorney and it seems our prosecuting agent is of the same mind, as we find he went to the rumseller's attorney to complete his evil dence, and he could add a little to it, If need be, while taking dinner at Landlord Ryan's table. Neverthess there was plenty of good evidence to be found to prove that Dunn did get liquor at the Rockville House on the day in question, and was not refused or ejected.'
