Those who have been Judging the

ACCORDING TO THE EVIDENCE.

ACCORDING TO THE EVIDENCE.
From time to time there come rum
ors, more or less vague, concerning the
attitude of some Of the members Of the
state senate toward the Cowan trial
now in progress. This or that senator
is reported to stand squarely on one
side of the proposition. The fact that
a senator has furnished ground for
the belief that he can now be depended
on to vote one way or the other is not
creditable to the man, If there are any
such. The members of the senate are
sworn to try this case on it's merits,
and to decide it in accordance with the
evidence introduced, and if there is a
man in the body who has gone to Bis
marck with his mind made up to vote
one way or the other, in advance Of the
submission of the case to him in the
regular and legal way, that man is vio-
lating the oath which he has taken,
and is failing utterly in the perform
ance Of the most solemn duty that can
be imposed on member of the legis-
lature. &..Et T. - %5|
The people of the state are being
kept informed through the press of the
testimony which is being offered by
the prosecution in support of the
charges against Judge: Cowan. They
will be kept as fully informed of the
evidence introduced by the defense
when the time comes for the introduc-
ton Of that evidence. There is abund-
of evidence that they are reading and
keeping themselves posted. They will
resent anything that appears like the
persecution Of an innocent man, and
they will resent with equal vigor any
thing that looks like the whitewashing
Of guilty one. They will form their
conclusions from the evidence and they
will demand that the senators do the
same.-Grand Forks Herald.
