50 Of the justices of this city ap-
Pc" - have taken a singular view of
their duties and prerogatives. says a
recent Manchester. England. dispatch.
The case of Hugo Shaw and w. H.
Hughes-who have rightly resigned a
position for which they were clearly
uniitted-has created a great sensation,
and has drawn a letter from the home
secretary in approval OF the censure
of the city justices. These two gentle
men have escaped lightly, for they
were guilty of about as scandalous a
breach of magisterial decorum as can
be imagined. From the report fur
nished by the chief constable we gath
er that when a local publican was to
be summoned for permitting drunken
ness on his premises these two justices
made repeated attempts to induce the
police to refrain from prosecuting.
Moreover, when the case was called GU
they We're found on the bench. and
when the police shifted the case to the
other court. Messrs. Shaw and Hughe5
moved after them. Having done all
they could to stop the case they thrust
themselves upon the bench out OF
their turn. There is a strong hint in
the chief c~onstable's report that undue
influence is frequently brought to bear
on licensing cases. in Manchester.

caused a spark, which ignited some

a special from Cheyenne says:
Ranchmen from all parts of Wyo-

history of the state have ranges been
in such fine condition. The very late
fall last year caused all varieties of
grass to seed thoroughly, and the
result is a growth this year Of a thick

rienced. 1t is expected that these con
