MATTHEW ARNOLD.
A BOOK OF FASCINATING LETTERS.

Collected and Arranged by George W, E Russell ssl:
and London. Macmillan & Co. 1885,
Writing to his sister in 1859 Matthew Arnold
observes that "in Paris there is certainly larger
body OF people than in London who treat foreign
politics as a science. as matter to know upon
before feeling upon." To go through these two
volumes is for the reader TO have 1t brought
home to him that in all the relations OF life
Arnold held to the principle or habit which ne ad-
mired SO much in the French. He knew upon
a thing before feeling upon" it. This does not
make him less humanity interesting. His letters
show the man In him with revelation OF his
tenderness and warm genuineness Of heart SUCH
as those who have considered him in his work
alone must meet with considerable surprise. But

There Is something touching In his deep ana

about papa was as good as II could possibly be-;

Dr. Temple indicates the critical freedom with

also provides that a certificate showing
that company has made such deposit

final OBJ lection to the Hinkle bill as
amended, which even it's friendssmust ad-
nit when their attention is called to it, is
that the Knights of Pythias, Knights of
Honor, United Workmen and other bene-
fetal societies are not exempted from its
provisions. Under it they will have to
make the same deposit of $4,000 each
and pay the same fees, licenses ana taxes

No, there is no need for the Hinkle bill.
There are no wildcat companies in the
territory to be legislated out, and there
is DO company in the territory from
which judgment can not be collected.
The com panies are already sufficiently
I taxed; and this bill takes no notice of
the licenses agents have now to pay into
the school fund. That law is left still
in force, while the fees for agents certi-
ficates are raised out of all reason.
This exposition of the proposed new
insurance law is respectfully submitted
I to the impartial consideration of the
business men in the council.

GRAND JURY REPORT.
recommendation Respecting Timber
Trespassers-P professional
Witnesses.

The United States grand jury, Herman
Lindheim foreman, made it's final report
to Judge Laughlin yesterday. After re-
citing that, "We have listened carefully
to the testimony OF all witnesses who
have appeared before us, lat in number,
and on their testimony have returned to
the court twenty-nine true bills of indict-
ment, the following suggestions are
made:
"The depredations of trespassers on
the government domain, devastating the
timber growing thereon, is becoming q
most threatening menace to the forests
and limited timber lands of New Mexico.
This seems to be growing evil and
source of revenue to those engaged in the
illegitimate traffic, and, while we have not
been able to give this subject the com
prehensive investigation that its magni-
tude demands, we recommend the same
to the next grand jury.
%'In striking contrast to a most demor-
alizing custom that has for many years
prevailed in some of the United States
courts of New Mexico, we call your at
tention to the fixed determination of this
grand jury in the very beginning of it's
session not to summon or permit to be
summoned any witnesses whose compen-
sation would be a charge on the United
States without first being advised that
the testimony of such witnesses was
relevant to some legitimate investiga-
tion pending before our body. We are
fully impressed with the corrupting and
emoralizing consequences resultant
from summonlng Unfortunately large
numbers of witnesses solely for political
or family reasons, who as matter of
fact are not cognizant of the commission
of any crime but procure themselves by the
importuning of friends to be summoned
solely for the purpose of making money.
We commend the action of the Hon. Dis
trict Attorney Hemingway and his able
assistant, Mr.. Money, for their manly
course in this connection"
The report concludes with an express
sion of thanks to Judge Laughlin,
Mr.. Hemingway, Mr.. Money, United
States Marshal Hall and Clerk Wyllys for
wise guidance, timely assistance and
courteous treatment.
