SEVERAL arrests of voters in the Fourth
ward have been made, charged with voting
illegally at the city election and several OF
them discharged while others were held
in the sum of 5000 for trial at the upper
court. 1t now remains to be seen whether
the grand jury will find srue bills against
them or ignore them There is nothing so
q certain as grand jury, especially
when political cases come before them.
There should be some other means adopted
IN drawing jurors to try these cases in the
upper court. AS it is now conducted,
more than two thirds of the names placed
In the jury wheel are those of Democrats.
The proportion should be half and half,
Republicans as well as Democrats.
