GREAT INTEREST
In The Armer Murder Case at
CalhOon is Manifest.
Other Important Cases that Will
Come up During the
Term.

There Is much interest In the term
OF Circuit court which begins next
week at Calhoun,
The principal business of the court
Will be the trial OF the case against
Rev. w. w. Armer for the murder Of
his son. The people OF Mclean coun-
ty commend the juries Of Daviess
county, and 1t Is believed that Nc
Lean county jury will do equally well
ioi law, order and justice II 1t gets a
chance. The sentiment, however, is
very strong against Armer and 1t Is
probable that he will be able to Sc
cure a change Of venue on that &C
count.
The Ellison will case will be the
occasion of big fight In court The
contest Is over the will OF the late
Thomas Ellison, and will be very
bitterly fought all along the line.
Z. The prohibition election case will
make things warm for few days at
court. An election was held here on
the question as to whether or not
whisky should be sold here. The
"dry" side won on the face OF the re-
turns, but the liquor men took 1t to
the contest board. which decided that
no election had been held. after they
got through with it the vote standing
equally for aud against the sale. The
dry people appealed to the Circuit
court and the case will b. heard the
latter part Of next week Both sides
are very much In earnest. 1t is be-
lleved that the dry people will win.

parties, with the utmost Difference. Senator
SpOOner, of Wisconsin, let us say, refers to
Senator Bacon, of Georgia, as a speaker
whom he delights to listen to, and whose
views on any public question must be given
the gravest and weightiest consideration;
while Senator Bacon refers to Senator
SpOoner as one whose judgment on public
matters is so sound and sure that when he
carefully considers a subject it is difficult
for him to make a mistake. This, at least,
is the tone in which a great deal of the dis
cussion is carried on, and, it must be added
it is a tone highly to be commended. A
distinguished foreigner who had had con
siderable experience with the public life of
other countries, recently remarked that he
did not know of nation where political
controversies produced such slight effect
upon personal friendships as those which
took place in the United States that it
would be difficult to parallel elsewhere the
warm friendship and high respect enter
tanned for each other by prominent mem
bers of different political parties in this
country, for it was commonly the case else
where that political partisan carried into
all of the qualifications of private life the
distrusts and dislkes of his party feelings.

HALT, LAME AND BLIND.

Courts, whether high or low, sometimes
merit legitimate criticism. Courts some
times deliver decisions that are neither in
nately, this is but seldom, and American
courts of law, as a rule, are presided over
by men of ability legal training and of un-
doubted rectitude. If this were not largely
the case, the American republic would not
be what it is today. That is to say, the
courts would not command the respect and
confidence of the vast ma jority of the Amer
lean people, When the people lose conf
dence in their courts of law the opportunity
for anarchy to step in is presented. No
citizen worthy of the name will attempt to
cast discredit upon any law court, simply
because the operation of law, honestly adj
ministered by the court, may bring trouble
to himself or friends. Yet this is what we
sometimes see. A local publication, in a re-
cent issue, INDUCED in an unseemly manner
in criticism of the district court, unseemly,
because of the fact that the criticism was
directed at a case still at bar, with the mani
fest intention to influence someone or other
or to mould public sentiment. The same
publication took it upon itself to classify the
case, whose cause it espoused, when it re-
ferred vaguely to suppositious mining liti-
cation that it alleged needed instant atten-
ton, rather than ''inconsequential criminal
cases." And because of this alleged fact, it
is concluded that the ''respect of citizens
cannot be accorded the officials, for it is
concluded that ''now they are hated by one
class, ridiculed by another and feared by
none"
A fierce arraignment, truly, of the United
States officials, who are here to admins
ter the laws as they find them, and all be-
cause prosecutions are directed at one of
the classes of which the publication alluded
to is the lame champion and defender.

The GRAND JURY'S REPORT.

The report of the grand jury, the text OF
which was published in the last issue or TINS
paper is a somewhat remarkable document,
and it especially stands out in bold relief IN
comparison with the reports presented by
the grand jury of a year ago. 1t Will be re-
membered that the grand jury OF the spring
of 1903 presented two reports, one breathing
fire and fury, and the other repudlatlng the
first Happily, the grand jury of this year
did not feel called upon to go into the
''roasting" business, 1t did not believe
that it was called for that purpose, yet 1t
made very complete presentment, IN
which it bestowed a measure OF praise upon
all the federal officials of this judicial divi-
sion. We have no fault to find because OF
the praise bestowed. The report, no doubt,
voiced the sentiments of a majority OF the
body, and, furthermore, We do not believe
in decrying credit wherever it may be due
The late grand jury performed large
amount of work 1t must be confessed that
it was painstaking in its efforts Its report
contained many wise and practical sugges-
tons, which, unfortunately, cannot or will
not be acted upon for some time to come, II
at all. Yet when a grand jury, after due
deliberation, ascertains that abuses exist,
their recommendations for the abatement OF
such should be entitled to considerable
weight, and practical and feasible sugges-
tons should be acted upon. Upon the
whole the grand jury are entitled to con-
siderable credit. 1t might have done bet
ter, and certainly it could have done inf
nitely worse We believe it accomplished
it's duty as it saw it, and that is all that
should be asked.

TIN PRODUCTION LAST YEAR.

ImpOrtations of pig tin into the United
States in the past year were larger than in
any preceding year, amounting to sc, 900, 900
pounds, valued at more than S23, 100000
In 1890 the importations were but 81, OOO, 900
pounds, valued at about 100000. The
use of tin has grown rapidly in the United
States, yet practically none of that article
is produced in this country. The Maylayan
states now produce more than half of the tin
which enters into the commerce Of the
world. The importation of tin in the form
of ore from the British colonies of the Ma
layan peninsula was about to begin when an
export duty of $50 per "picul Q33 pounds)
was levied on the ore exported, the purpose
of this duty being to retain for the people Of
the Malayan states the profits of smelling.
Next in Importance in the production of tin
after Malayan states come the Dutch East
Indies, whose product at the last report was
double the production of Bolivia. Australia
and Wales in 1901 exported only about 1900
tons of tin ore each. Three fourths of the
worlds tin comes from parts of the world
not remote from the Philippine islands, and
this fact, coupled with the increasing de-
mand for tin, may lead to careful exami-
nation as to the possibility of tin production
in the Philippines as we'll as in Alaska.
The Nome nugget., 1904-05-25

Sitka, Wrangel Ketchikan and Douglasl
all incorporated town of Alaska, we find that
each has it's chamber of commerce, and from
the same sources we gather that all these
bodies are doing effective work for their
respective communities. Yet, in Nome,
there is no such institution, Notwithstanding
the fact that this is the largest town in all
Alaska, has much greater commercial and
mining interests and should be in the lead
in all matters of this kind. And yet we
seem to be dead to everything save our own
immediate personal affairs. If we are not
greatly mistaken this section of Alaska is on
the eve of great period of development
and it certainly seems to US that unless the
business men effect some kind of live Organi-
zation, not only their own business interests
will suffer, but those of the entire peninsula
as well. To effect live, permanent organi
zation needs only little healthy coopera
ton.
