To say that roads of st. Inigo's dis
trict are in fair travelling condition
would be an exaggeration, i. e., the
words used would not convey to the
reader their obvious and known signifi-
cation. We entertain no doubt as to the
early repairing of the same, weather per-
hitting.
Captains Mike Robb and VIM. Moore
are shipping shad every week to Balti-
more. Roe shad retail hereabout at

North west winds make the current
weather unpleasant. Ice and heavy
frost occur and woodpiles of conical and
rectangular shapes decrease rapidly at

Attention Tobacco Shippers.

OFFICE OF EDELEN BROTHERS.
Baltimore, March 23, 1897
Dear Sir After carefully consider
ing the conditions surrounding our to-
bacco market, we have concluded that it
is proper to advise our patrons to hold
their tobacco, especially the grades suit
able to the French market until the new
French contract is given out. French
tobacco is decidedly easier, owing to the
fact that the buyers for the French mar
ket, having filled their old contract, are
buying sparingly and discriminating
closely until the new contract is awarded.
After which time we anticipate better
market for all grades. Light handling,
colory grades are selling at satisfactory
prices, but they will do as well or better
later on. We feel satisfied the French
grades being in better condition, will do
much better when the new contract is
given out.
Respectfully,
Edelen Bros

Afternoon Session,

The principal work of the afternoon
was on the Senate special file and spe-
cial urgency files. The following bills
were passed:
Flint's s. B. 493, to pay claim of E.
n. Strout as Reclamation Fund Com
missioner.
Guys A B. 31S, to pay the claim of
John =. Kidder; Linders S. B. 542, to
provide for the construction of a free
wagon road from Mono Lake Basin to
connect with the Tioga road near I'll
oga mine. This is identical with an A.
B. introduced in the House by Keables,
who withdrew his own and has cham
pioned 542 through the House. Keables
explains that the few miles of road
asked for really connects the eastern
and western section of California by
means of a pass through the Sierras.
1t makes available a magnificent road
built in the palmy days of the Tioga
mine, but now leading to nowhere The
new road will connect with this and
form an outlet through fine Sierra
pass for the four counties on the east
ern side of the mountains, the inhab-
itants of which now have to go into the
State of Nevada to get to the seacoast
of their own State. The bill, to Keables'
great satisfaction, now goes to the
Governor
Seawell's S. B. 119. appropriating
S110, 600 for additional buildings for the
Mendocino Insane Asylum.

pressly waived in open court. In any
case, civil or criminal Except criminal
case where the punishment upon con-
vction may be death, when the verdict
must be unanimous, [fve-sixthsl of the
jury may render verdict. In all cases.
civil or criminal, where trial by jury
is had, the jury may consist of twelve,
or any number less than twelve, upon
| which the parties may agree in open
court. When a jury has been impaneled
and sworn in any civil action or criminal
case, if juror or jurors shall from any
cause become unable to attend the trial
shall nevertheless be proceeded with to
a termination if five-sixthsl of the

! the punishment upon conviction may be
death, when the verdict must be agreed
| to by all the jurors still in the box
| five sixths of the original number may
render a verdict.
Valentine and Shanahan were strong
| in their opposition, contending that by
| the conditions of the amendment an Of
| fender charged with misdemeanOr or a
crime less than felony, was at the mercy
of a Justice of the Peace who might be
ignorant or biased.
Cutter contended that the amendment
should be submitted to the people just
as it is, that the existing jury laws are
wholly inadequate and many guilty per-
sons escape.
marlborough offered an amendment
striking out the words amounting to
felony" and this Cutter was willing to
accept.
Brdgford then offered a substitute
e-wording the amendment; it was sat
isfactory to the legal members, but Cut
ter contended that it cut the life out of
the original measure.
On motion of Valentine, the whole
matter was laid over until to-day and
Bridgford's amendment ordered printed
in the journal.
THANKS FROM THE REGENTS.
A resolution of thanks from the Reg
ents of the State University to the State
