The Grand Jury of Douglas coun-
ty has concluded its labors, and
failed to indict any of the men who
were engaged in the Uber lynching.
The jury stood 9 for indictment and
8 against. 1t was not much of a
disappointment to many, this action
of the jury, because great pressure
was brought to bear against indict-
ing, for the reason that number
of murder trials would be very ex-
pensive for the county. 1t is also
openly stated that money was used
to help the cause of the lynchers.
Judge Mack and District Attorney
Virgin did all in their power to see
that the laws were enforced, and it
may be possible that another jury
will be called. The result would
probably be the same, however. In
their deliberations the members of
the grand jury who voted not to in
dict on the straight and direct evil
dence before them, have declared
that Douglas county is the home of
a band of foreign outlaws and cut
throats who will have no law except
that as made by themselves. We
do not consider that it would do a
particle of good to call another
grand jury in that county, but there
is a way to bring these people to
taw. Not another county in the
State would allow such proceedings,
and when the Legislature meets
next Winter one of the first things
it should do is to consolidate Orms-
by and Douglas counties. This
would put the band of aliens into a
county where the majority are law
abiding Americans, and they would
see to it that the law was respected
and crimes like the Uber lynching
punished, regardless of expense.

Hypocrite Brown, the sancti-
monious San Francisco parson, has
at last confessed that all the things
he was accused of in the Brown
Overman scandal were true. Every
body thought so, but the confession
was probably brought about by the
confession of Matte Overman that
Brown had ruined her.

A Humboldt Mine.

J. c.. Pierson returned the first of
this week from his gold mines in
Humboldt county, near Humboldt
House. 1t is understood that Capt.
Davis, of this place, is interested
with him in the property, which
Mr.. Pierson considers quite a valu-
able one. The mines are situated
in Black Canyon, only about six
miles from the railroad and small
force of men is now at work develop
ing them. SO far the lodges show
ore that will average close to 500
per ton in gold, and if the same
value is contained in the ore as the
lodges go down, the property will
certainly prove to be very valu-
able one. Should development work
prove this, a crushing plant will be
erected and the material be treated
by the teaching process which has
proven so successful in working low
grade tailings, etc, at this place.

and the presumption is that 1t could
make as fast time over the latter route
A railroad must not create a disabil-
ity for the sake of obtaining a differ
entail. Every other consideration ex-
cept that of time is against the grant
ing Of the differential. It's imperfect
physical conditions and lack of con-
i.ections have all been changed. OF
all these competing lines the tracks OF
the Canadian Pacific alone extend from
ocean to ocean. It's roadbed and equip
ment are equal to any. 1t has railroad
connections with Seattle. Tacoma and
Portland. 1t runs through cars from
Boston and Montreal. 1t has steam
ship connection to Asia by it's own
steamers. 1t may be doubted If the
name of any of it's rivals, perhaps of
any American railroad is more general
ly known throughout the civilized world
than is that of the Canadian Pacific
When this different al was first grant
ed, business to Pacific coast points
went largely to San Francisco Prac-
tically none went north of Vancouver.
1t Is largely in consideration of that
fact that the differential was then al
lowed. Today this is not so. The great
volume of traffic by these north trans
continental lines is to Puget Sound. or
through Puget sound to points beyond.
Ten years ago the Canadian Pacific
was out of the direct line Of traffic be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific coast.
Today 1t is the direct line for a large
portion of that traffic. In location
distance, construction, equipage,
through car service, reputation, facilI-
ties for obtaining business and scenic
attractions, the Canadian Pacific would
not for moment admit It's inferiority
to either of the others. Again the use
of differentials is almost exclusively
confined to trunk line territory. and
rates made in combination Herewith.
GREAT NORTHERN'S INDEPEND-
ENCE.
The Great Northern is at a disad-
vantage as compared with the Northern
Pacific in the matter of obtaining an
equal proportion of passenger traffic,
and vet the Great Northern asks for
no differential. No line, American or
Canadian, ought to insist upon a die-
ferential unless it is at a manifest dis
advantage. This is especially true of
the Canadian Pacific, a Canadian In
stitution, built largely by government
aid. and for government purposes If
1t comes into the United States to COM
pete for traffic between United States
points, 1t should be content to operate
upon the same terms as it's American
competitors, unless those terms are
clearly unreasonable Ii should not in
sist upon a different order Of things
here unless it can make its title to the
demand clear beyond all question. The
Canadian Pacific appears, however, to
be entitled to make as low rates on it's
transcOntinental business as any Amer
lean line.
The commission further points out
that it has q lso suspended the long and
short haul clause for american lines
on business to and from the Kootenai
mining district in British Columbia,
and on traffic between the provinces Of
Quebec and Ontario, and the province
of Manitoba.

FOOD LEFT TO ROT.
Stored Away in the Hold of Trans
port and Forgotten.

NEW YORK, Sept AT the be-
ginning OF the war the steamship La
Grande Duchesse was chartered as a
government transport from the Plant
steamship line She took on troops at
Port Tampa, and was one Of the fleet
that carried Shafter's army to Cuba.
Some time before she sailed she also
took on a large quantity Of subsist-
ence stores.
Since then the vessel has been con-
stantly in the government service. A
few days ago she arrived at Montauk
Point with troops from Santiago. Later
she reported for orders at this port to
Col. Amos S. Kimball, deputy quarter
master general. AS the government
had no further use for her, Col. Kim
ball was ordered to return the ship to
her owners. By the terms of the char
ter she was to be discharged from the
service at Savannah. The captain was
ordered, therefore, to take her to that
port. On Saturday the captain walked
into the office Of Maj. Summerhayes,
quartermaster, U. S. A, one of Col
Kimbal's assistants, and is reported
to have remarked:
tell you that there's a lot of provisions
on board my ship belonging to the gov
ernment. Perhaps the government
would like to take them off"
1t was reported that about 1000 tons
of all kinds of subsistence stores were
slowed away in her hold. There were
hard bread and bacon, canned meats,
canned vegetables and what not that
should have been retired on a pension
a long time ago.
After looking over the stuff, a board
Of survey took the affidavit Of the
captain, in which the time and place
Of loading the stores were given, as
well as the name Of the officer to whom
they were consigned and the port of
consignment. The board VIII conclude
its investigation and make report. I'm
til then no official statement about the
inquiry can be obtained. It was learn
ed, however, that the captain of the
steamer stated in his affidavit that the
stores had been aboard the ship for
about four months.
