toned by the laws to survey the con-
duct of their fellow citizens. and
inquire where and by whom public
authority has been violated, or our
laws infringed. The law and your
conscience shall serve as your guide.
Obey the mandates of each and your
lahors will be success. Let your
work and investigation ever be gov
erned by an honest and impartial de-
sire to do justice to all alike and to
elicit the truth regardless of conse-
quences. Then, the innocent will have
naught to fear and the guilty will be
made to feel the heavy hand of the
law
ABSOLUTE SECRECY.

tions, to fulfll the purposes designed

lutte secrecy. You viii refrain from
discussing among yourselves, outside
of the grand jury room, any case or
matter which may have been submitted
to you, or which may be pending be-

should any person approach you seek
ing Information or to influence you in
such case or matter, 1t will be your
absolute duty to report the same to
the court forthwith. Such conduct on
the part of any person would be high

duty of the court to punish anyone so
interfering with the administration of
justice summarily."

struction and these sentiments TO our
local affairs and conditions. Let us
proceed along these lines with the
work we are now about to begin. Let
us remember that before the law all
