THERE Is at least one man Of COM
mon sense in New York. The fact that
he has eyes that see and ears that hear
was made plain day or two ago by his
asking to be exempt from jury service,
for the reason that he does not believe
in the modern trial by jury nor in the
modern jury system, which he is firmly
convinced is fraud. That his head is
level goes without saying. In old times
there was a jury system in Scotland
that was effective-the lockwood sys-
tem-hanging first and trial afterwards.
But all the criminals have votes nova
days, and they are entirely too numer-
Gus to allow return to any such etfi-
cient system.

CONGRESSMAN THOMAS of Michigan,
q republican who addressed the G. A.
r. post at Richmond last Saturday, said
'the whole world knew of the wrong
and defeat of the rebellion" Unques-
tionably the whole civilized world
knows of the defeat of the Confederate
cause, but it is just as true that the
whole world does not know that that
cause was wrong, and nothing is plain
er than the fact that great many peo-
pie, even in the North, now recognize
Che fact that that cause was right.

REGULATES ITS BoNDs.-The town

REPUDIATEs ITS BoNDs.-The town
of Pratt, Kas., has repudiated its bond
ed Indebtedness. The city council has
instructed the treasurer not to pay any
more interest coupons on the city's
bonded Indebtedness. Pratt carries a
bonded debt ofS75, 900, and the mayor
and council have come to the conclusion
that they might just as we'll turn the
real estate over to the bondholders. All
kinds of property have suffered great
decrease in value during the last few
years, and investments in real estate
bring little, if any, returns. The city
administration concludes that it is next
to impossible for the owners of real es-
tate ever to pay the bonded indebted
ness. At the present time it is impos-
sible for them even to pay interest.

OMAHA, Neb., June 4.-The Nebraska
Supreme Court yesterday rendered q
decision in the litigation growing out
of the split of the democratic party of
the State two years ago. Both elements
held conventions, and officials of the
silver party brought suit to force the
secretary of State to certify that it
was the only democratic party of the
State. The court declares it is not
within the province of the secretary to
determine such question and that in
such cases both elements must have
equal chance.

ONE OF the "orators" in Washington
on the recent Decoration Day in that
city, exclaimed: "Oh the splendid
courage, the deathless valor flour boys
in blue. How like gods they moved;
vet how like men they fell before the
red bolts of battle" This naturally
suggests the thought of the "deathless
valor" of the boys in grey, who, half
starved, barefooted and almost naked,
and with poor arms and bad ammuni-
ton successfully repealed, for four years,
a force six times greater than their
own, and then fell, only because they
could stand no longer.

Organization Of political clubs for or

dates would surely be elected, as their
combined force would by far outnumber

ly agreed that the Democrats should
have the two judges of the superior
bench and the Populists the two assem-

ocrats will name one superior judge and
the city assemblyman, and the Populists
one superior judge and the county as
semblyman. This change in the selec-
tion of the assemblyman had brought
the name Of Judge j. f. Kinney as the
Democratic candidate for assemblyman
from the city. Judge Kinney will be the
unanimous choice OF his party and with
or without fusion can be elected. The
