JUSTICES OF THE PEACE SCORED.
Strong Report of the Territorial Grand Jury
of Grant County,

The territorial grand jury at Silver
City has completed it's work after re-
turning "a true bills and 32 no bills.
The committee appointed to examine
the books of the various county officers
reported everything correct. The COM
mttee that examined the county charity
hospital reported that the buildings
were in need of repairs, and that money
due from the territory was needed for
this purpose. The grand Jury in its
| final report states that many of the
cases sent to them for investigation by
the justices of the peace were trivial,
and should have been settled by the
justices courts, and that the justices
were guilty of neglect of duty and gross
ignorance of the law in sending them
up to the grand jury and shifting respon-
sibility. They recommended that these
facts be laid before the people in order
that they may exercise more care in the
selection of justices in the future, and
see that none but competent persons be
chosen for office. Sunday closing is to
be enforced strictly at Silver City, and
henceforth all business must close for the
entire day. The members of the grand
jury when interviewed expressed the
opinion that if the provisions of the law
were brought to the attention of good
citizens it would be observed without
forcing them to the disagreeable duty of
prosecuting and indicting them. As a
result several merchants have an
nounced their intention of closing their
torres on future Sundays.
The committee of the grand jury ap-
pointed to examine the jail reported that
four insane persons were being kept
there at an expense of SIS a month,
whereas they could be sent to the terri
torial asylum for only 81 more, and rec
commended that this be done.

that coming to the window of the house
and looking in he had seen woman in
compromising position with man
and recognized In the woman his wife.
He went around and entered the back
door and seeing some one running out

man he was after and shot, killing his
sister-in.law instead. He has had trou.
