It seems to us that it would be proper
that some other persons, or power,
should do the investigating and formu-
late the statement requested, and not the
parties accused.
And this brings to mind the idea,
which has been several times suggested d
in this paper, of the propriety and ad.
vantage of creating county board OF
audit, consisting of three persons, edu
cationally qualified, appointed, say, one
by the governor, one by the judge OF the
district court, and one by the county
board. Their duties to be to audit til,
accounts of all county officers, including
the acts of the county commissioners. a,
least three times year, at times not
known to the officials. This would re.
lleve the state examiner of great deal
OF work and allow him to pay more anG
! needed attention to the state banks. and
IN the same way relieve the county
board. Allowing this new board OF audit
the same rates Of pay as the county COM
mlssioners, the expense would not be
much, If any, greater than at present, be.
cause they could do part OF the work
now done by the board, and thus short.
en- the sessions of the county board.
The great advantage of such board
OF audit, would be in the fact that i,
would have no other connection with the
county officers or their duties. AS it is
now, the ocffiial and personal relations
OF all county officers are SO closely relat-
ed, that it becomes very delicate and
difficult matter tor any officer to criticise
or object to the acts Of another, and par.
ticularly against the commissioners, who
to some extent are in authority over all
the rest, and who, as the law now stands,
are subject to no authority, or audit, ex-
cept that of the district court.

DISTRICT COURT.

Court convened ON Tuesday in regular
term. Business has proceeded very
slowly, owing to the attorneys not being
ready with their cases. The session will
not be long one however, as the calen
dar is short.
The cases disposed of so far are as fol
lows: A. B. Buie, violation of prohibi-
ton law, case called on Tuesday, accus.
ed was granted until the next day to
plead, but made no appearance at that
time and his bond Of S4OO was declared
forfeited. F. E. Russell accused Of en-
bezzlement from Elevator company at
Backoo, was also found to be missing
when called, and his bond of S4OO was al
so forfeited. Nm Burke, who ran away
with team he had in charge, while
threshing in toilette last fall, and who
has been injall ever since, was allowed
to go on his own bond. Harvey of Wal.
halla, accused Of blind pigging, Was iu
court Thursday morning, but owing to
an error in the description of his place of
business a new case nd to be started,
which probably will be tried this term.

BARRY TO HAVE A NEW TRIAL.


The supreme court has ordered a new
trial for Vim. Barry, who was sentenced
to life Imprisonment from Cavalier coun-
ty for the murder of Andrew Mellin, his
hired man, whom he accused of running
his sister.
The only defence at the time of the
trial was insanity, the killing being prov
en- beyond doubt by the acknowledge
ments made by Barry to many persous
and'not denied by him on the stand; yet
the supreme courts principal ground for
sending the case back for new trial is
that Judge Kneeshaw erred in his charge
to the jury. by saying in. substance, 'slf
you believe the testimony of the witness
e for the state, then you must believe
tn. r-rry killed Melin." The supreme
court says, under the statutes and pro-
cedure in this state, the trial judge must
not assume anything as proven by the.
evidende< when the defendant has plead
ed not guilty. Of course, to the learned
brethren of the legal profession, the
technicalities involved in such a qualified
expression as that quoted, and its mo-
mentous Influence on the minds of the
jury, is doubtless very plain, but to us,
ignorant folksit sounds about as por-
tentious as if the judge had said to the
jury, Gentlemen, if you believe the
sensations produced by the nerves which
connect your posterior with your brain,
provided, Of course, that you are satis-
fed by competent evidence that you are
endowed with such physical paraphernal-
ia, and this evidence is further corrobor-
ated by your eyesight. that is. if you are
satisfied by the testimony of the witness
es that you are able to see, and other
wise taking into consideration the pre-
ponderating circumstances governing the
case at issue, then, gentlemen, you must
belieye that you, and each of you, are
sitting in these chairs. +" W
In other words, nobody outside the
learned profession would think that the
expression of a fact as plain andSlear to
the Jury as the fact that they were seated
in their chairs, could or would haveN any
influence. one way or another, on ahe
minds Of an intelligent Jury. NM
But ifSthe law Of North Dakota dos.
s It allow trial Judge TO say that certain
evidence, if believed by the jury to be
true, proves some certain thing, we hard
ly see what is left for the judge to say in
{ his charge; in fact, it would be much bet
ter Tor him to omit the charge entirely
rs hat the attorney for the defense
would not have the. opportunity Of get
ting an order for a new trial on techni-
caiities, from the supreme court.
The first trial, cost Cavalier county
several thousand dollars, and it is posi-
BILE thatsthe new trial will have TO be
