COMMENTARIES.
Matters Concerning Local Evey
day Affairs Noticed by the
Courier-Herald Reporter.
The jury system should be abolished
in justices' courts. It has been demon
strated time and again, that juries in
the justice courts of Clackamas county,
fail to convict in nine cases out of 10.
In many instances the testimony is con
elusive, but the juries bring in a verdict
of not - guilty, and the taxpayers foot
the bills.
It keeps pedestrians busy on upper
Seventh street dodging bicycle scorchers
on the sidewalks. That street is now in
excellent condition for wheelmen, and
why the authorities permit such things
on one of the most crowded thoroug-
fares, is a nine days' wonder.
Some of the admirers of Sam Jones,
claim that bis preaching is in a difl'er-
ent vein from the matter of his lec
tures at Gladstone park. A lady, here,
however, who heard Jones for two
weeks continually, says that his ser
mons were a repetition of the same har
ague as given at Gladstone park.
The Oregonian sent their city editor
and assistant telegraph editor to San
Francisco, to ascertain just how matters
stood with the returning volunteers in
reference to being mustered out at Port
land or San Francisco. They reported
that the Second Oregon Regiment from
Oolonel Summers down favored being
mustered out at San Francisco. The
Telegram recently suggested that the
sword for Oolonel Summers, be pre
sented at San Francisco.
Ringler, the Chautauqua sports mas
ter, claims that this paper did not treat
him riiilit in reference to matters on the
athletic field. Why didn't be treat the
Jolly Fellows baseball club right?
It is reported upon pretty good au
thority that at least two of the Oregon
City volunteers will stop off at Albany,
and go into the Santiam country to lo
cate homesteads before retnrning home.
Information has also been received, that
one of the Willamette con panics will
return home by way of Newport.
