TWO KINDS OF Jury BRIBERs.

At Emmetsburg recently Judge
Quarton meted out a bit Of justice that
will win public approval for both judge
and jury. In a case where low fell
low was on trial for a filthy offense
a boon companion of the accused offer
ed one of the jurymen on the case a
ten dollar bill in exchange for his
vote and influence in favor of the
defendant. The juror complained, the
Jury briber was Immediately placed
on trial and given five years in the
penitentiary 1t was an excellent piece
of work expeditiously conducted.
But the very expedition Of the case
and the character Of the criminal
should temper extreme satisfaction.
This was a fellow of no influence, a
parasite on decency. He had neither
real friends nor money. He YVES an
ignoramus on the face of the evidence.
He was one Of the class to be found
in every town whom we miss with
pleasure and feel a delightful lone
someness when they are gone to the
penitentiary or anywhere else from
whence they are not likely soon to re-
turn. Suppose the briber had offered
$4,000, instead of $40; that he had been
"highly connected" that instead of at
tempting to save a degenerate from
states prison he had been defending a
murderer, or an Illicit whisky dealer?
Would his case have been decided at
one term of court, and the criminal put
snugly behind the gates at Anamosa?
Or, would it drag it's interminable
length thru term after term until pub
lie sentiment changed from censure
to WEAKNESS, and the case died OF old
age and neglect? Honestly, which IN
the logic of court history, is the most
likely conclusion of The case?
Such men as the one sentenced at
Emmetsburg, are more disgusting than
dangerous. Degenerates offering $40
notes in brazen purchase of Iowa jur-
ors are not likely to stay the march of
Justice to any appreciable extent. Ger
tainly they are best out of circulation
and in the penitentiary. The really
dangerous foe to Justice is the fellow
who conversant with the law, with a
keen knowledge of human frailty, bats
his hook of bribery with wisdom and
casts it with skill Money, politics,
personal favor AMI threat, belong in
his equipment. Every court has had
experience with him. How many have

HE WANTS TO SELL OUT.

TFarmingtOn Herald.J
We want to sell out. We have never
before made this announcement
publicly but we have often thought it,
and thought it in strong language, Dor
dering perhaps upon profanity. The
way of the transgressor is hard, but the
way of a country newspaper man Is
cussed sight harder. Sometimes we
wish we were dead, and often we wish
some other people were. When man
becomes useless here there is no rea-
son why he should not pass on.
You see 1t is mighty seldom that a
large juicy piece of local news comes
to hand, and the editor is held respon-
sible for the dearth. His readers run
thru the paper. skip the heavy editor
ials that have taken week and forty
pounds of brain flag to grind out,
glance at the patent medicine adver-
tisements and coritemptuously fling 1t
aside, with the ungrateful and insulting
remark, There's nothing in it."
Then, when something does happen;
when an event occurs That entangles
the entire community and would make
good reading; an occurrence that
might make few hairs stand on end
and drive a man or two to the verge
Of the desperation that the editor EN-
joys" the year round; and when the
editor has risked pneumonia and rheu-
matism and kidney complaint listening
at the keyholes of committee rooms to
get the facts; then we repeat. he is
waited upon by a committee of promi-
nent citizens who induce him to sup
press the matter.
1t makes us mad as hornet for a
committee of p. c's. to come around and
say Ssh! sh sh!'' Confoulld these
.. c's! We want to sell out and move

Prof. e. F. Ladd, State Pure Food
Commissioner, is publishing in the pa
pers of the State. his list of adulterated
food products, discovered by him in his
researches in the past few months. As
the Tribune has heretofore pointed out,
one way consumers can assist in making
this law effective is to refuse to pur-
chase food stuffs offered for sale that
have been branded a. impure by the
Pure Food Commissioners. There is NO
doubt that Prof. .Ladd in his analysis is
actuated solely by desire for the good
of the consumer, and in no way can his
work be made more effective than by
the cooperation Of, the purchaser who
need only refuse to buy products labeled
impure to bring about change in exist
ing conditions. 1t is likely that the
members Of the legislature will see the
wisdom Of assisting in this good work by
making reasonable appropriation for
the experiments and analysis of the
Pure Food Commissioner.

Friends With Hope Of Action.
Washington, Jan. 16.--The intention
h to keep the statehood bill to the
front in the senate during the present
week with the hope on the part of its
Friends that by the end of the week
they may be able to get an agreement
to vote on it. Thus far the opponents
of the measure have held out stub
bornly against naming day for vote
and while they do not say in explicit
terms that it is their intention to
fllibuster against the passage of the
bill it is evident that unless COM
promise can be reached for the elimina.
ton OF Arizona from the measure they
will make an effort to prevent a vote
before the close of the present ses.
sion. On this account there is COM
ing to be more or less discussion Of
plans for the modification Of the bill
and most of the talk gravitates to-
ward the amendment suggested by
Senator Foraker for separation of the
votes of Arizona and New Mexico on
the question of admission, or that sug-
gested by Senator Bard combining the
operation of the bill to the creation OF
the state of Oklahoma out of the ter
ritory of Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory, entirely eliminating New Mexico
and Arizona from the bill A number
of Republicans have announced them
selves favorable to either of these
notifications and the hope is express
ed that the Democratic senators may
be brought to accept them In the
meantime the debate will go on.
The pure food bill will become the
unfinished business when the state
hood bill Is disnnscd of.

Today the legislature votes by separate
houses for the selection of United States
senator to succeed Senator McCumber.
Tomorrow the two houses meet in joint
session and cast the formal ballot which
will be recorded in the journal, and upon
which will be based the certificate Of
reelection of the senator. Proceedings
will be Of perfunctory nature, since it
has already been agreed in a republican
caucuss that Senator McCumber is to
succeed himself and the republicans
dominate so absolutely that the republi-
can caucus is equivalent to an election.
The senator's certificate which is being
engrossed, will be signed by the officers
OF the houses and of the state, whose
duty it is to sign such certificate, and
will be dispatched to the senator as his
credentials for another term of six years

gress. The senator is now in Washing
ton, busy with his duties, those of the
pension committee of which he is chair
man being especially arduous.

Russian Student Makes Fourth A.
tempt to XIII Official.
Moscow, Jan. 16.-At the Nicholas
station Sunday night while General
Trepoff was bidding farewell to Grand
Duke Sergius on his departure for St.
Petersburg, a young man wearing a
students cap fired three shots from a
revolver at the general. All the shots
missed General Trepoff. Grand Duke
Sergius proceeded on his journey.
General Trepoff, who recently was
relieved of the Office of chief of police
of Moscow and ordered to the front to
take up his duties as head of the Red
Cross society in Manchuria, incurred
the special enmity of the students of
Moscow by the severity with which he
put down their demonstrations of Dec.
IS and 10, 1904. Within sne week in
1902 there were three attempts upon
his life.
