Rev. Over1nan Brown has fina1lv

He now owes an apology to the

GRIMES LEGAL PROTECTION.

b failure of the Douglas count,
Grand Jury to indict the Uber lynch
ers gives one a fair idea Of The mum
erous safeguards that the law of the
land throws about the crimina'
element. 1t requires twelve men te
lndlct and it requires twelve more tc
convict. If out of these twentv-fou,
men the defendant gets one man IN
his favor ne goes scot free.
Thus it will be seen that the
chances of the conviction of a law
breaker is but one in twenty -four.
With this enormous percentage in
favor Of the criminal must be added
the weight OF a thousand and one
petty technicalities, which even after
conviction, foster and protect him, in
what the attorneys are pleased to
term his legal rights"
If the jury is not drawn in a GER
tain way, if the challenges are not in
due form OR the judge makes a slip
IN his ruling on some point where the
authorities differ, the defendant has
still other chances which afford him
~loopholes of escape.
The law should be amended so that
a majority Of grand jurors could in
dict. In case they were guilty Of an
error of judgement there would still
be left to the accused the protection
OF a trial jury in which an unanimous
vote is required, and in this no one
would hold that his rights to a fair
trial would not be fully protected. In
the present condition of the law the
accused has the advantage in both
the grand and the trial jury, and it
would seem but fair that the State
had an equal show in one of the iuries
which the law provides must pass
upon a mans guilt or innocence.
In the Douglas case no doubt the
men who voted against indictment

consideration of expense to the
county, feeling that many of the
heavy taxpayers, while openly de-
nounclng the murder of Uber at the
hands OF a mob, secretly hoped that
there would be no indictments he.
aus the criminal trials which would
result would necessitate a raise in the
tax levy of Douglas.
Thus justice was sacrificed to the
pecuniary interests of the taxpayers
and the report goes over the country
that lynchiug accompanied by torture
is not an offense against the law IN
Nevada. The proper way to guart
against such brutal acts in the future
would be the passage of a law COM
pelllng any county in the State where
a lynching occurred, to pay into the
State treasury a certain sum of money
II within six months from the time
of the lynching, it had failed to detect
and convict the guilty parties.

severe task for me on account of
several unjust charges made against
me, one of which I will make a state
ment of now and others later. ..,,f.s
I have seen by the press of this
city that Mike Connolly, of Swanville.
had informed and stated to the
auditor of the Minneapolis Brewing
company that I had been at his
place OF business in Swanville on
Friday, January 29th, 1898, and
that he, supposing me still to be
agent OF the Minneapolis Brewing
company, had paid to me the
amount due to the said company.
Now, / hereby want to state to the
readers OF this paper and all those
who heard OF this story that the
above charge is an invention and a
falsehood. have not received one
cent from Mike Connolly since Dec.
25th, 1897, nor have I seen Mike
Connolly since that date, and fur
thermore, I have not been in Swan

hope they will accept, my sincere
gratitude for the sympathy they
have shown me i'll my trouble.

I want to further state that when
the Minneapolis Brewing company's
auditor came here last, he came un-
to me. I did not expect
him here for two months yet, but
had he been sensible enough and
given me one week or ten days tim e

CINCINNATI ENQUIRER:

Clnclnnattl Enquirer: lhe real
issue between the two great political
parties is becoming more simplified
and distinct day by day. In the last
national struggle there were many
who honestly believed that inter-
national bimetallism was possible
and they voted the republican ticket
with the sincere conviction that the
success OF that party would fully en-
franchise silver as a money metal at
parity with gold. Party leaders
knew better, but they pretended
friendship forfsilver in order to keep
silver republicans from DESERVING
from the fold. That false pretense
cannot be successfully practice
again. Thanks to Lyman Gage he
has removed the mask worn by the
republican leaders and boldly de-
clares that the intention of the adj
ministrat ton is to. firmly establish
the single gold standard. This
avowal made by the person author
lied to speak for the president and
his party must convince honest
silverites who voted for Mckinley
that they have been basely betrayed
and deceived. The lines are being
very closely drawn between the
parties. All recognize that silver
reconciliation is the supreme issue.
The facts that but a single demo-
crat voted against the Teller-Mat-
thews resolution; that the populists
were unanimous in favor, and that
a large number OF republicans Joined
with the silver forces, are proof that
the day of the peoples deliverance
from their bondage to the money
power is beginning to dawn. The
republican party has abandoned the
position taken in 1896, while the
democracy are more united than
ever in favor of the free and unlim
tied coinage of both gold and silver
at the established ratio without
waiting for, the approval OF other
nations. While the mighty power
of Secretary Gage, backed by thou
sands of national banks, is recog-
n;zed, if no successful attempt is
made to organize q new party and
thus divide the vote, the old party
Of 16 to 1 will certainly win. y

business industries, the shrinking Of
