When A Fellow's
Well Dressed
Life goes with a swing. There's no
greater luxury than good clothes and
surely none more sensible and eco
nomical. There's a feeling of satisfaction in
a perfect fitting suit nothing else can
give. You'll find it in our celebrated
H. S. & M. clothes. This is the
label.

The first snow of the. season fell last
night. It was not of the fleecy variety
warbled about by the poets, but the
cold, damp, clingiDg, clammy sort that
is twice as wet as water and three times
as disagreeable as anything else possi
ble. It greased the sidewalks, slopped
the crossings, made mud in the streets,
and sent the blue shivers clear to a fel
low's soul. Dame . Nature . was in a
mood to slam the doors or kick the dog
when she invented that kind of slum
gull ion, and consequently did the mean

GRAND JURY REPORT.
"Side Tracked" last night drew a good
house, and one that seemed to be
amused. The actors were, we ehfeuld
judge, good, had there been anything in
the medley to give them a chance, but
the play was without sufficient thread
to string the specialties on. However,
everyboby laughed, and as an hour of
smiles is certainly worth half a dollar,
.there is no kick" coming.
The trouble with the theatrical 'nro-
tession is that every eastern failure! im
agines all it has to do is to come West,
with - a selection of stale jokes, gross
limbed women, and a repertoire suited
to the Bowery, and the world is their's.
A vaudeville entertainment is either
good or bad, the re is no such thing as
mediocrity in that line, and yet '"Side
Tracked" came near being the exception
that proved the rule. Still, the public
should not expect too much of an actor
who has to spend most of his time herd
ing a' slobber-mouthed boll-pup. , If
Mr. Walters would shoot the dog, get a
higher classed play, and devote some
time to its study, he would undoubtedly
make a very good comedian, for he has
talent.

Tn the circuit court for the state of Or

term. .
We, the grand jury in the above eta
titled court, respectfully submit the fol
lowing as our final report :
' We have been in session six days and
have taken cognizance of all criminal
matters presented to us and coming
within our knowledge, and havejeturned
thirteen true, bills and one aot true
bill.
We have also inquired into and dis
missed several matters that were of such
trivial nature as not to warrant further
action.
We have made a cursory examination
of the county clerk's, sheriff's and coun
ty treasurer '8 offices, and have too criti
cisms to offer as to methods or manner
of keeping the records and accounts of
these offices.
ine attention oi the county court is
called to the insecure conditiou of the
shutters of the windows in the vault of
the county clerk's office.
The attention of said court is also
contractor, none of whom had the least
complaint as to the treatment received.
One lady informed us that it was just
like home there, and all ot the a part-
en ts of the house eeemed well ordered
nd cleanlv.
We deem it our duty to offer a word of
caution to the justices of the peace
d commiting magistrates of the coun
against sending to the county jail
persons accused of trivial offenses which
usually result in acquittal, - involving
only great expense to the county.
In conctusion.we beg leave to acknowl
edge the assistance and courtesy shown
us by the court and district attorney
and the respective county officers.
Having to the best of our knowledge
and ability discharged all the duties in
cumbent upon us; we respectfully ask to
be discharged from further service.

called to the condition of our county jail
which wc find to be badly arranged and;
inadequate for its purposes. Our jaU
contains four cells, three of which arei
6x9 and one 8x9 feet in dimension. In J
each cell we found three uncomfortable
cots or hammocks, the cell itself having
no ventilation except with the corridors
of the jail.
To confine three persons to the limit
ed space ot one of these cells, breathing
only the vitiated air of the corridors,
and sleeping on. most uncomfortable
beds, does not seem to us to be either m
nrndent. fir hninnnn.
The inmates of the jail protested in
strong terms against the food furnished
them. We inquired into the matter and
conclude that their complaints are some
what exaggerated. We wbnld. however,
call the attention of the members of the
legislative assembly from the county to
the propriety of securing an amendment
to section 2341, Hill's annotated code of
Oregon, which gives the sheriff $6 per
week for keeping prisoners when the
number does not exceed four, and $3 per
week when the ' number exceeds four.
Evidence is not wanting that in some
instances the contractors who supply the
prisoners with food receive only- twelve
cents per meal and for bat two meals
each day. .
It is the opinion of this grand jury
that the boarding' of prisoners should
not be a source of revenue to any officer,
and we believe that it would be in the
interest of humanity and a saving to the
county if the section referred to could be
amended as to give thecounty court con
trol In this matter. . .
We believe that any - person confined
in ooi county jail is entitled . to whole
some food, pure air and a comfortable
bed, at least up to the time of his . con
viction. -
