''PAoKINe" of grand juries received at
tention. last week, at the hands of JUS
tice Swayze, of the Supreme Court. He
filed an opinion quashing indictments
found against certain officials in Hudson
county, and held that the evidence pro-
duced showed that great animosity had
been evinced by the sheriff against the
accused, and that the jury was composed
almost entirely of persons with antago-
nistic feelings to those whose cases were
to be considered. The opinion says that
under the constitution no person can be
held to answer for criminal offence I'M
less on the presentment or indictment of
the grand jury. This, it holds, must mean
a legally constituted grand jury, having
the qualities which grand juries were re-
ouired to have at the time the constitu
ton was adopted, SO far as these qualities
are essential to secure the end of the pro-
lection of individual liberty. A grand
iury summoned otherwise than impartial

them. while in other cases the juries have
been called together with the assurance
that some persons to be presented would
have a sufficient number of friends to
guarantee immunity from further incon-
