JURIES IN ENGLAND.
They Get Through Their Work Quickly
and With Little Fuss.


The working of the British jury sys-
tenn exhibits marked contrast with
that Of our own. 1t is possible that my
experience in British courts was ex-
ceptional. but In not single instance
did see juror challenged or reject
ed. In all Of the courts requiring ju-
ries the necessary number Of men
were present. and they were sworn In
without question. In the sheriff's dep.
uty court In Scotland the presiding
Judge gave notice to the jury that he
expected to adjourn the court at 2
o'clock and stated that II they could
all remain until that hour he would at
once dismiss the men who had been
called for second panel. The Jurors
conferred together and decided to re-
main till | o'clock, whereupon the
judge notified the other men to appear
at 1890. The one jury impaneled for
the morning session rendered six YER
diets in cases involving prosecutions
for thefts, fraud and burglary.
In the court Of quarter sessions at
Taunton, England, saw a single jury
In one day render eleven verdicts.

several sorts Of court that attended
for the same jury to act In successive
cases. In no instance did l see q jury

was made so plain that all who gave
attention knew in advance what the
decision would be. made note OF an
exceptional instance Of delay when the
court was forced TO wait nine minutes
for the report OF the jury. In this case
the judge who gave the Instructions

twelve. and unanimity Is required But

SUDDEN DEATH OF
WALLOWA PIONEER
WELL KNOWN AND BELOVED
MAN CALLED HOME-GRlEF
TO MANY HEARTS.

Uncle Joe Reavis passed away al
his home in this city about 2 O'Clock
Wednesday afternoon, of paralysis
He had gone up town that morning
in his usual health and returning
about 8 o'clock was stricken when
almost home. and was not able to

Funeral services will be held at

Uncle Joe Reavis is dead. Those
five words contain a message thai
causes genuine sorrow in the hearts
of the people of this city and county
Uncle Joe" he was to us all, the
kinship being of the heart, the ia
milar name always spoken in affec
ton and respect.
Uncle Joe received only what he
first gave. No larger heart ever
throbbed in human breast. Like
Abou Ben Adem, he loved his fellow
man, and made that love manifest
in his daily life. Always kindly
and cheerful, his face was a bene
diction to many weary workers. Did
you ever hear Uncle Joe say an un-
kind word about anybody?
The chiefest among his many vir-
tues was his oughtfulness-the
rarest as we'll as the choicest gift
that is given man, He always did
the right thing In the right way at
the right time.

For some time past we have been
thinking of writing a editorial on
the follering subjeclt viz to wit
as Honesty the Best Policy?'
which is a serius queschion and to
which we have given considerable
thort.
Somebody whose name excapes
US said 10 these many years ago
Honesty is the best policy" and
ever sinst then folks have said it
was although there amt been very
many of EN- who have ackted as il
they had the courage of their con-
vieishions.
Ifshonesty Is the best policy, why
amt more people in Bingville more
honester than they be? If honesty
lis the best policy why is it that about
$40 of our Subscribers don't
walse into the Bugle office like
men and women, as the case may
be, and pay up their back sub
sclsripshions or at least a porshion
of same so that as editor. proprie-
tor, printer and publisher of the
Bingyille Bugle we could look the
futchure in the face without fear
and trembling?
If honesty is the best policy, how
does it come that we amt made
more of a finanshial sucksess of
the Bingville Bugle than we have
| up to the present time? There be
times when we almost repine and
fear that we be making a awful
mistake by being so honest and up
rite and full of integrity, as you
mite say, insted of pracktising de-
cepshion and deceit and trying to
pull the wool over the eyes of our
next door nabor.
Cy Hoskins, who poses as one of
our most respeckted citizens and
who is also one of the stanchest
pliers in the Bingville church, has
alters maintained that honesty is
the best policy. Tother day we
met Cy on the street and asked him
if he believed deep down in his
pusilainimous heart that honesty
Is the best policy and Cy said of
course he did. We then asked Cy
why he didn't pracktise what he
lpreeched and Cy says:
"You don't pear to understand
lme-I have alters stuck up that
honesty is the best policy-for
Iother people to pracktise. but il
laint a good thing for me cause I've
ltried It and know. However, SO
long as other folks is honest / can
manage to get along Isl rate, but
it would be a horrible thing il
everybody was dishonest-honesty

We spoke to several other well

Spring Treatment for tho
Blood

mother of Bud Hinekley, who amt quite
right in his head, has started in to give
Bud q course of sulfur and molasses for
his blood this spring as usual. Bud may
not have very much sense but he's got
enuff to know that he hates sulfur. and
molasses like cat hates soap and we
can't blame Bud much because its .
awful hard thing to take.
When Bud sees his mother come with
the sulphur and molasses bottle he alters
begins to holler and .yeh so he can be
heard all over Bingviiie and sometimes
Mrs. Hinckley has to hold Buds head
under her arm and just nachurally pore
liz down his neck 10 get 1t into him.
