The Grand Jury also presented its
report, as follows:
Hon. ". F. !Sterous, Circuit Judge:
We, the Grand Jury, impanelled for
the August term of the Circuit Court,
beg to make our final report:
We have diligently inquired into all
violations of law that have been
brought to our notice, anG we have en-
deavored to perform fairly, impartially
and conscientiously those duties which
are required OF us as grand jurors. H.
We have examined l22 witnesses ans
have found "a true bills.
We have examined the books OF our
county officers and found them correct.
We have carefully inspected the
county jail and find the same well
kept and in good condition, with the
exception of its sanitary arrangements,
which are very offensive. The
offensive odors arising from the Jail
from defective sewerage must neceS-
surily be highly prejudicial to the
health and reasonable comfort of its
occupants. We therefore respectfully
recommend that the Board Of Super
visors of our county have the Jail fitted
up with waterworks and modern
sanitary improvements.
We thank the officers OF the court
fer their promptness and efficiency in
aiding US in the dispatch of business.
Having no other business before us
we beg to be finally discharged.
E. L. SANDERSON, Foreman.
The grand and petit juries were
accordingly discharged, and court
was duly djourped according to law.

lion packets of seed are being sent
out of Memphis to the constituents
of the various Congressman and
Senators in Tennessee, Arkansas,
Texas, Mississippi, Missouri, Ala,

esgary to scour the entire world to
get some of the varieties.

Senator Hill has never advocat-
ed better measure than the bill
ne introduced this week providing
that all postmasteys shall serve
four years, unless removed for
cause, although its Introduction at
this late hour gives 1t small chance
to become law.
If it be fair to Judge by the
growing among the members of
the House, Speaker Reed didn't
please anybody but the two gentle
men named when he gave Repre-.
sentative Bailey, of Texas, the
democratic vacancy on the com>
mlttee on Rules, and Boatner, of
La, the vacancy on the Ways ar d
Means committee.
Although the House killed the
Pacific Railroad funding bill by an
overwhelming majority, it showed
its sympathy for one of the lead,
ing advocates of the bill by order
ing a speech stricken from the reco
ord which had been inserted under
the leave,to-print rule by Repre-
sentative Mcguire. of California,
and which contained references to
the indictment of Representative
johnson. Of California, in Syracuse
N. Y. more than thirty ago for
forgery; and emphasis was added
by the refusal of the House to orr
der Representative Johnson's
speech, in which he made very
bitter attack on William r. Hearst
stricken from the record. This
action was taken by the House af-
ter Mr.. johnson made one of the
most pathetic speeches ever made
in Congress, acknowledging that
he had been indicted in New York
and giving details of his going to
California and working to regain
his good name and to repay the
money, IN both of which objects
he showed that he had succeeded
There were tears in the eyes of more
than one man on the floor of the
House when Mr.. Johnson said in
his speech: 81 tell this to show that
| am not ashamed of my life that
| have not concealed this blot upon
it. Can every man in this House
and in this country say SO much?
In Sacramento | have built up a
name and a fame that any man
might be proud of"
1t was plain to be seen by the
apathy with which the speeches
made by Senators Mills and Bacon
this week on the Cuban resolution
Of the former were received that
the Senate has about arrived at
the conclusion that the Cuban
question is dead 50 far as this ses-
sion Of Congress is concerned.

Washington Letter.
From Our Special Correspondent.

The U. S. Senate has in he past
made the fortune of a news paper
correspondent by shutting him up
in tie basement of the Capitol be-
cause he refused to tell where he
got copy of a treaty which be
sent to his paper, and brought a.
bout the election to the House by
the largest maj Ority ever given in
Congressional district of one of its
clerks who was dismissed because
he was suspected Of telling execu~
tive secrets. Now, curiosity is
naturally excited to know what it
proposes to DO or try to do to Sec
letary Olney, who gave to a CORES
pendent. who represents London
and a Boston paper i'll Washington,
a copy of the arbitration treaty be-
fore the ink OH the signatures Of
himself and the kBrtish AmbassA
dor was thoroughly dry. AS yet
the Senate has taken no notice of
this extraordinary act of Secretary
IOlney. Indeed, two days after the
full text Of the treaty had been
published in the newspapers the
Senate committee on Foreign Re-
lations solemnly discussed, without
reaching a conclusion, the qurs-
ton Of authorizing the publication
OF the treaty, which was done later
by the Senate. This sort of thing
would be farcical anywhere else but
in Senate committee, but so
great is the dignity which doth
hedge a mountaineering to the
opinion of many of the Senator's
that it would be a crime second
only to treason to charge a
committee If the Senate with plays
ing a farce. but it must be said that
the discussion referred to was, un~
der the circumstances, good imi~
tatiOn of farce,
According to present appearances
combination of diplomatic OPP
position, personal feeling, and
small politics may endanger, if not
actually prevent, the ratification OF
the arbitration treaty between the
United States and Great Britain,
which was signed by Representa-
tives of both governments and sent
to the Senate this week. In view
of the known sentiment in this
country in favor Of the arbitration
IF international differences, it is
supposed that the Senate would
promptly ratify the treaty. 1t was
know, of course, that the diploma
tic representatives of European
countries, especially Russia, would
like to see this treaty fail, but it
was not supposed that they would
dare to engage in intrigue to bring
about it's failure; but they are do
ing that very thing. And the per,
sonal feeling of Senators against
Secretary Olney because of his pos
ition concerning the power of the
President in recognizing new ma
tions is helping them, and the
small politics of those republican
Senators who are willing that the
treaty shall be jeopardized or even
lost entirely rather than to see this
administration get any credit for
