THE GRAND JURYs REPORT.

The report of the Grand .J,,rv is j.,
remarkable document. Tt goes IN the
root OF a great many evils. It touches
ON many important public questions
It handles them all with vigor. And
II makes its meaning clear to every
Intelligent reader. For these and nther
reasons it is out of the ordinary rim

members Of the Old county court the
grand jury did no more and mo sess

crlticizing and condemning the present
members OF that court, which of neces-
slty includes their legal adviser, the
county attorney, the grand jury will
receive the plaudits of this entire COM
munlty, with the exception of the

statements and exposures made by the
SaIt Lake Herald. The grabbing dis
position Of the county officers is only
exceeded, IN some of them, by their ig-
norance of the law in relation TO their
offices and their manner of conducting
or rather misconducting, the business
of the county. And that has been rem
dered worse by the spite exhibited in
some of their actions towards the sher

efforts and substitute. Illegally, persons

The excessive fees charged by county
officials, as set forth in the report, form
potent argument against the whole

Perjury is an ugly charge against the

The nuisances referred to by the

public will appreciate the boldness

A REMARKABLE STATEMENT.

Mr.. Joseph Simon, the member of the
Republican national committee for Ore
gon, makes a remarkable Statement
as to the reason why San Francisco
did not get the Republican convention.
His own words must tell his story:
Had it not been that the Californians
IN washington City who were pressing
the claims of San Francisco were iden-
tined with the free silver movement in
greater or less degree, I think that,
despite the opposition raised on ac-
count or time difference and Inadequate
telegraph service, San Francisco would
nave won. It is time that Republicans
Should forever divorce themselves from
this free silver heresy.
If a Republican national committee
man from Pacific coast state terms
free silver a "'heresy," what will east
ern Republican committeeman term it?
Mr.. Simon says it is time that the
Republicans should forever divorce
themselves from the free silver here
sy The Republican party divorced it
self from free silver twenty-five years
ago, and the divorce was "a vinculo
matrimonii' and not merely "a mensa
ct thoro." Such having been the char
acter Of the divorce, it was extreme
folly to expect any reconciliation. And
the Republican party so soon as it Sc
cured the separation, became welded
to gold until death should them part.
Mr.. Simon clearly defines the position
of the Republicans of Oregon when he
says:
Oregon will have eight delegates in
the next Republican national conven-
ton, who may be safely counted upon
on the subject of sound currency of
the country by degrading the stand
ard of value to a silver basis.
How long before the people of the
silver producing states will realize the
truth of Senator John P. Jones' re-
mark: "There is no hope for silver in
the Republican party?"
