SHAKE UP TIE DRY BONES.

We wish to again direct the attention of the grand jury to some apparent evils in connection with the offices of United States commissioners and recorders in this judicial division. There to be a sensus of opinion that in some of the recording dis trcts, if the right kind of an investigation be made, that grave Irregularities will be brought to light. The work of the average grand jury, free to admit whether in Alaska or elsewhere as rule amounts to very little far practical results concerned It is so easy to apply coat of whitewash, and pleasant to prv into the treason of things" that it is small wonder that grand iures, besides returning a number of indictments against criminals already caught devote the balance of their time to fruitess endeavors to throw light on dark places. Failing to do this, they adjourn, after applying the coat of whitewash where needed, and praisng officials, whether they deserve praise not and receive their reward their per diem and the thanks of the court for their panstakng diligence.
 We fully apprehend the fact that it is easy to make charges, but much harder to substantate them But if the present jury shall cause thorough shak ing up of dry official bones, we believe that much good will be done

called the lodge to order by three dis.
