GRAND JURY
The fuDdiona of the Grand

which for the past huuJrtd
year bare been chiefly exerted

within the put year widened
the scope of its vision to include

branch of our government.
If en who have held high poli
tical positions now. find that
theii acts ai subject to investi

great corporations and trusts
have found that the bullwork
of piled up millions of dollars
does not protect thein from the

high flowu malefactors, and
their friends, wh 3 have , bene

Grand Juries should use their
right end exercise the power to
bring them befoie the criminal
courts for trial the same as law
breakers in the more bumble
works of life.

machines, headers, reapers aud
plows? During the Civil Var
news was carried to and from
different parts of the army of
of the Patomeo by and over in
sulated wires stretched on the
grounds. It is within -the
range of practicability to con
vey electrio power to run all
kinds of farm machinery and
implements by means of such
wires to convey the electricity
frojt the power plant to wh ere
used.
