Grand Jury Apologized.

IL has come at last. A grand jury. in returning an indictment against two rich and influential men. George W. Perkins and Charles $ Fairchild. for alleged violation of an express statute law |. has accompanied its presentment with an apology for the necessity the body found itself under, in view of the law and the facts be- fore 1t. to return the true bills against them. The grand jury feels sure the eminent gentlemen meant no harm in violating the law, if violated il they have. as the cir cumstances seem to indicate; that In fact they were inspired with altruisistie motives, 'by 4 desire to benefit the policy holders'' of the insurance company whose books, it is alleged, they "doctored' and falsified. with view to increasing the company's business.
 The legal maxim that "the law is no respecter of persons" has long been discounted in the mind of the people who have so often noted the difference made between the petty offender, driven 10 crime. it may be, by dire necessity. and the rich and powerful who viola.e its provisions, but the specta ele of a grand jury apologizing to two men for the necessity 1t IS under to present them felony established new precedent which, we trust for the sake of the common good. will have no following.

Owing to the numerous rail- road wrecks of late and the great loss of life in consequence thereof, the country Is up in arms, so to speak, against the railroad management. The management of the railroad Is undoubtedly responsible to a certain extent, but the American people have. also, d hand in the affair. It is the mad rush of the age. They cannot travel fast enough. no matter how fast they go. and the railroads are simply trying to please their passen- gers. Ii a train makes less than forty miles an hour it is "a slow ox.team" with the yelling public. Let people be satisfied to go slower and wrecks will occur less frequent.

The Arkansas Legislature meets next Monday.

Senator Butt is now in the peni- tentiarv on conviction for giv- ing Adams this money, and if he did give Adams the money Adams ought not not to be per mitted to hold his seat as Sena- tor while the other is in the pen itentiarv They both ought to be in the same boat. as he say ing goes.

The Legislature. W hich meets next Monday, will do well to "watch and wait" before voting too much money for State House and other appropriations. The
 graft workers are most likely to get busy early in the session and
 keep busy all the way through. The old time poodle manipula- tors may not be so conspicous as heretofore. and may not ad- vertise their business with large posters and brass bands, but they will be around where they can be found. in case of an emer- geney, and you needn't doubt 1t.
