An Attncl. on Grnnh Jurics.

An Attack ON Grand Jurics.
The legislature of Illinois is considering
bil the adoption of which would work
d radical departure in the court system
in the city Of Chicago. The bill proposes
the abolition of grand juries in counties
having a population Of 100000 or over.
Cook county Chicago would be the only
county affected by such law. 1t is al
legged that politicians have been manipu-
lating the grand 1uries to their own ends
untf the system has become u farce and
a scandal, and it is claimed the only way
to remedy the evil is to eliminate the sys-
tenn and substitute something better.
In the state of Michigan the grand jury
has been abolished entirely. in all coun-
ties. In that state a criminal is arrested
and taken before a magistrate, who con
slders the evidence and holds him for the
criminal court, or discharges him. In
certain cases the magistrate imposes a
sentence. The Michigan people claim that
the system saves a vast amount of time
and money. Cases are not piled up in
pigeon holes, awaiting the regular meet
ing Of a grand jury, to be. by the jury
hurriedly and incompletely considered
from lack of time. The magistrates keep
up with the work, each case is given time
enough to be heard on. it's merits, and an
amount OF picayunish litigation is kept out
of the higher courts.
1t is a modification of the Michigan
system that the Chicago people wish to
try. There seems, from the Chicago Re
cord, to be a majority OF opinion in favor
Of the change. The stumbling block, how
ever. is the legislatures right to pass
such an act as a special law, applying only
to Chicago.
The legislature of Alabama is not will
ing to put the state in the position with
regard to the state debt that the majority
of the congressman from Alabama were
willing to put the general government
with regard to the federal debt. Seven
of the nine Alabama representatives in
congress voted against substituting the
word gold" for the word "coin" in the
new issue of federal bonds and thereby
! conserving the credit of the government
and saving $l6,O0O,OO in interest. The Ala
bama legislature. however. and very SEN
sibly, viii insert the word gold in the
state bonds.
Prince Ferdinands enforced departure
from the throne of Bulgaria seems to have
affected nobody or nothing except the I'M
happy prince himself And if he could
have carried his salary of 100000 year
into retirement with him, the probabilities
are that even he would not much mind
the change. He has always found the
throne too full of thorns to be comfor-
table.
Reports so far received at Gloucester,
Mass, show that port to have suffered

Some tine ago Senator German expressed
the positive opinion that before the end
of the current congress, some legislation
for the relief of the treasury would be
enacted. During the past few days, how
ever, Senator German has been remark
ably quiet; and the legislation for the
relief Of the treasury is not yet in sight.
