CHARGES IGNORED
BY THE GRAND JURY
Constitutional Convention Saved From
Indictment by Legal Technicality.

The United States grand jury yester-
day gave consideration to one matter
of quite general interest. but i'm its final
report ignored it entirely for the rea-
son that it was laid before the jury in
an irregular way, by letter communi-
cation. There We're in fact to COM
plants, but the responsible identity of
the complaints was not disclosed,
though there is no doubt but the grand
jury could have found numerous wit
neSSes in respect of the matter, both
for and against, had it elected so to do.
following are the complaints:
To the Honorable Foreman of the
United States Grand Jury:
Dear Sir-I beg TO inform you hereby
that myself and a large number of 9TH
er indignant citizens consider that it
is proper, and should be, that all the
members of the constitutional conven-
tion should be indicted for Outra geous-
ly killing time. and doing nothing at all
We win look to you for relief, and we
hope and pray that you will do your
duty in the matter.
Yours very respectfully.
INDIGNANT CITIZEN.

Gentlemen-An observer for thirty
years of the course of human events

gineers, people were led TO hope great
things.
Many of us have our all invested
here; we have our wives and children
here.
Some of us have already mortgaged,
or otherwise sacrificed our property
some have folded their tents and moved
away. others will soon have to do like
wise, and some are not even able to
do this.
We believe that you were instru-
mental in getting through the appro-
priation of $4,000.
We feel. Mr.. Secretary, that you can
act under the provisions of the act of
April 4. 1910. and will open a portion
of these lands to settlement, and not
await the indefinite.
Yours very truly.
