Eugene City Guard. BATUBDAY ........ OCTOBER 31, 1801 Tl.n street committee has done thinir in having the mud huulod from Willamette Btrect. The German (racialists have de clared for equal suffrage, regardless of eex, and adopted a fairly strong prohibition piann.

T1.a Tariff committee of the French Senate has decided on i in-r nf 25 fmncB ner kilo on Amcr icanpork. That is a McKinley tax of $5 on every 220 pounds another ''triumph for reciprocity. Mr MoTCinlev is not hunting anv more ioint debates. He is sat- iudoil with liia h'kIh as Ions as can keep away from the other Bide of the oucsuon. jomi uuimw u- turb his intellectual digestion. The the cases Mr. Blaine now writes that since tho reciprocity clause waB put into the McKinley bill he indorses it that is to say, the reciprocity clause. Mr. Blaine has learned dm o-reat art of exnreBsing his meaning by what he doesn't say. Last year Mr. Varney, ' state fruit-tree inspector, served a notice r. 1 fit I 1 on . a. fiance, oi ouiew, tun ing him to exterminate the San Joso scale alleged to be in Clarke's orchard. Now Mr. Clarke gets even by publishing the story that Mr. Varney's orchard at The Dalles is covered with the same pest.

It costs but littlo more to try a caso in open court than in tho se cret tribunals of a grand jury. The committing magistrate hears both sides of tho caso and finds a warrant to hold tho defendant. A grand jury hears only the side most favorablo to the Btate and turns the accused looso. Which should be abolished, the magistrates that hold their courts free and open before tho pcoplo, all interests duly rep resented, or the grand juries that exorcise arbitrary powers. j i Tho Tcndleton East Orcgonian says: Rather novel and interesting land matters have been gleaned from tho county clerk's office. One is that a settler is not com pelled to have trees in order to prove up on a timber culture. JesBO Derrick of Athena made com muted timber culture proof before the county clerk on a pioco of land north of that city, whore it seemB as hard to grow trees as to culti vate hair on a bald head. Mr. Derrick and his witniflesses tested frankly that there was not a living tree on the land, but that ho hud complied for years with the timber culturo law by attempting to grow trees. II hi proof was accepted and ho has received his duplicate. John J. JohnBon, who has less than 100 trees, was equally successful in making proof on his timber cul ture north of Athena. It has been often urged againBt tho grand jury system that they constitute themselves a trial jury. Within th secret chambers where their inquires are held the guilt and innocence of accused par ties are passed upon without the in tervention of tho courts. They may bo certain that a crime has been committed, yet are afraid that a petit jury may have doubts, hence no indictments. It is titno that tho ancient fraud should bo abol ished. It conserves no useful pur pose, and may be used as easily to protect criminals as to bring them to justice. Do away with this re lict of barbarism, that was insti tuted when it was supuosod men could not do justice and bo secure in person unless they conducted their investigations behind closed doors. It is against the theory up on which our government is found ed. Equal and exact justice may more readily bo found in a fair and open trial before the courts than in tho secret deliberations of grand juries, a master niinu may con trol their findings. Criminals have been protected by grand juries. The legislature of the state of Ore gon should erase the words grand jury from our statutes. Congress will bo asked for an ap nrmirktion of $3,000,000 more to complete Porter's census report It has already cost $7,000,000, while that of Walker, completed cost only $4,000,000. Mr. Porter chryBtalized into an ass very early after receiving his appointment and his work is of littlo practical value. Thus millions of dollars of the people's money is thrown away and wasted. Walker's rejwts were far more valuable and were about fin nncurato as census reports can be. The will of one of tho greatest lawyers of tho United States has been set aside bv the New York court of appeals. When Samuel J Tilden was alivo no man would have thought that hia carefully framed will could havo been suc cessfully contested. The old states man left a magnificent bequest of several millions of dollars lor tne forming of a public library in the metropolis. 1 no courts uiveri. uiu ereater part of the fund, yet $2,000,' 000 remain with which his wishes will be carried out.

Davis, another dentist, for 10.000 damages for publishing malicious, de famatory ami fait matter concerning hlni, to tho Injury of his reputation and Dractlce us a dentist. The stilt frows out of the publication, in the elegram of the 0th Inst., of a commu nication from Davis, headed "A Dent- tons Htatement," wherein lie spoKeor Drake in a forcible manner, and stated that lie "cleans snltboxes and all the dirty work of Newcastle." Drake further charges Davis with getting out and distributing a certain circular reading as follows: "At the head of tho stairs leading to niv olllee vou will irenerally find a man who will try to get you into one of the other dentists' olllces belonging to U.
