Alter tUs we can well under stand the low estimate so «any "able" Pennsylvania lawyers and judges pot upon the Irnoortanl ot tbe pud Jury. Ia their State tbe qntea represents bat the skeleton of the power end the shadow of the dignity of the eadeat institution, sad virtually carries none of Its wholesome terrors. By the same token its conrpurgatoiial -.{Miction, in herited from- the Anglo-Saxon test, end which, fa days ago tie, has snatched intended inaoceat victims from the tyrant's execu tioner, loses its value to the falsely sccaasd citizen. The underlying, basi c ρ ri η c i ph of the grand jaxy system, as it has come down to as ia tbe law 0< England and is itially fa its ia* tagrity in some of the States, ia clediog Virginia, is irresponsi bility and an trammeled inqui sitorial authority. It is an ex parte, secret body, amenable to ao judicial ok other dictation or penalty. A coort may charge Its grand jtuofs as to their daty, bat it is impotent to enforce performance.

Om (Uni v« bopttkc ttidtn oi ibt Piwumlu Farmer wQl dennd of all their candidates for the IttUitmt dning the campaign tela year la tbe adop tion oi tbe Tonena System of rcftateriag land titles. This matter has beeo so clear ly and ao exhaustively treated by Jndoe Montgomery in bis "Prac tical U* Talka," sod in the two M three articles which we hase had from Hoe. Eugene c. Mas aie, of Virginia, aa to require bat little explanation here. To state tbe principle, in fact, ia all the argument the matter needs, so obvious are ite advantage*. Aa h is now, every time a piece of property ia transferred some lawyer most examine into tbe legality of tbe title. Old rec ord»—running back sometimes for hundreds of years—must be aeerchcd at great labor and ex· pease; and die next time the property ia aold, and the next, aod Ac next, tbe same work most be done over again, and other big lawyer*a fees paid. Now toe Tarrens System pro poses that, instead of this peren nial investigation of the same thidfc, this perpetual marching backward and forward over tbe Round with no mnmc save that of supporting lawyer* who might better serve their fellows in soac other way—in stead of all this, we say, the Torrec* System proposes thst the State «hall examino the title once for all—and hence forward it may be transferred as easily as a share of stock in a corporation or a bond Usoed by state or municipality. The original coat of getting a Torrens deed will be little! if any, more than the present coat of once invest!gating the title, and with the JTorrena deed once seemed, land titles may be transferred at from one»fonrtb to one-tenth the present expense and with im measurably leas worry and un certainty. At present, moreover, a deed Is only a registered certificate of claim; tha State does not guar antee your right to the property described, and even sfter the lawyers have pronounced the title sound, you cannot be ab aotutely sure. Λ deed under tbe Torrens System, ou the other band, is an absolute guar antee inn· the State of your right to tbe property men tioned. A lawyer said to us the other day that he knew pieces of prop erty several times transferred on which at least one-fourth tbe total value bad been spent for investigating tbe title—aad the next time the property is sold, the same ground will probably be gone over again. Under tbe Torrens System, at a fraction of this cost, tbe owner would bave a guaranteed title requiring no farther investigation and his property as easily negotiable as a united States registered bond. Easily negotiable, we say—and right here is ooe single advant age of the Torrens System that ought to insure its adoption aveu if It had no other attrac tions. As things arc now, land —which should be tha finest o( all seconde·—by reason of tbe oecertaiatyof title* aad the cost of making inquires, is in no such favor with tha banker and money· leader as Its value Justifies; the farmer, in other words, is at s gnat disadvantage in borrowing iMAai^n at romiMfMl tjfl* city beulaess «Ma.

Rockfeller. The information· allege that ia 1882 Rockefeller combined in dividual partnerahip corpora· lion· into the Standard Oil Company. The purpose of this company, the informations aa· sert, was to monopolise the pro· ductiou. tale and transportation of crude petroleum and its by product*. This, it is alleged, was a conspiracy against trade and a violation of toe anti-tinst taw. Since July 9. 1903, the infor· instion declares, and at all times since, the Standard Oil Com pany has been operating in this country through subsidiary com panies, known as the Buckeye Pipe Une Company. A. motion filed by the Standard Oil Com pany's attorneys to quash the informations filed recently by the prosecutor against the Man hattan Oil Company and the Buckeye Pipe lane, chararine mem wun oeing ■ part of the Standards attorneys claimed that tbe probata court bad no jurisdiction because the offence, if one bad be* η committed, they udd, was a felony, and that it roast be bandied in the Com· mon Pleas Court, if bandied at all. Judge Banker overruled tbc motion and decided tbat bia conrt bad juriadiction. Every attempt was made by tbe attorney· for tbe defense to have tbe decision reserved. The conrt told tbe attorneys that be was baa ring the Manhattan Company caae and not tbe Buckeye Pipe Line Company caae, and that the reason for delay was not sufficient to stop the rendering of the decision. TBE CALL OP THE V1L0. Chief Ha Shirt and Bis Orievaac· Atainat ChrlltsatUn. Chief No Shirt and about 100 Walla Walla Indians among tbe Umatillas desire to tshe their share of tbe tribal funds and withdraw from the reservation to some place where they will be allowed to live in the good old way which prevailed before Ipdlan agents and department rules were known. The chief grievance of No Shirt is that tbe government insists on legal marriages, at tendance of children at school, conformity to tbe rales of the Indian Depattment, and prog ress la the ways of civilization. The call of the wild is echoing deeply in the heart of No Shirt. He longs for the free mountain air, tbe untranmeled liberty of the bills and tbe patriarchal roaming with tbe family, goods, and warrior· m the savage incli nation might dictate. Tbe fetters of civilization chafe tbe old chieftain. Tbe yoke of tbe white man bangs heavily npon his neck, and be rebela at the rigid rales of Waahington. Bnt despite the call of the wild in bia heart, No Shirt will be reconciled to his lot. His pao Îile have aome of tbe richest land u the county.

The fly wheel hat a steel center and arms, with a gold rim; aud this part (the complete wheel) weights one grain. The cylinder la of steel with octagonal base, highly polished. The stroke is 1-32 of sn inch; bore, 3*100 of an inch; seventeen pieces are used in the construction of this engine. The feed is through the gold base, which is hollow.

Fsarth at July Thoafht, Richmond Krw»-L«wlcr, All who are tempted to doubt that onr country is growing in breadth and real strength should read the apeecbea made by Pres ident Roosevelt and William J. Bryan yesterday. Tbeae mes are tbe recognised represent atives and leaden of the two great parties. They a ρ ο k e thousand a of mites apart and iu conditions contrasting sharply. Curiously enough, tbe Repub lican president stood In the open' air and in a soaking rain-storm addressed an assemblage of the plain people, cb'eflv bis friends and neighbora; while tbe Dem ocratic leader of two campaigna spoke at tbe Hotel Cecil, Lon don, to a gathering of ambas sadors, diplomats, dignitaries and statesmen. Both speeches are wonderfully different from the old-fashioned Fourth of July orations of a few years sgo, stuffed with boastfulness and ar rogance, frothy with rhetoric, corruscating confusedly among the stara. Both Roosevelt and Bryan talked without «qy pre tense of oratory or attempt at it, used plain and «Impie words, coming directly to their points. In both speeches there are deep er and aweeter notes und ex pressions of more serious thought and nobler and higher purpose than tt>e orations for such oc casions to which we have beep accustomed. Both deal with the questions before ns snd the re sponsibilities upon ns with grav ity approaching solemnity. Mr. Bryan's keynote is that the white Bugllah-spesking peo ples bave tbe task of uplifting, freeing and enlightening the people of the whole world and tkat their work must be done ac cording to the precepts, tbe doctrine and- the example of Chriat, by the power of love, pat it η ce, mercy and benevolence rmthmr ft··· t» (χ— 1— the courage which spares and Is •low to uicr rather then by the courage which strike· swiftly sod destroys. Mr. Roosevelt's keynote is that la our owe coun try we mast tear qat evil with sore but deliberate band·, most anpQres· and pu ο lab wrong wherever it Is found bat without malice or rancor and all tbe while cultivating the spirit of cordial good will and motoal forbearance, respect and regard among the different classes of oar people. Both addresses breathe act oaly the purest pa triotism hat that broad, oaivera· al loyalty sod love to omaklnd and reflection of the spirit of the Creator wbica b finer even than patriotism and above aad beyond ft. It b evident that both these leaders, representing opposing parties end different saethoda of thought aad liaes of policy «ad io boom respecta diKrent ek oMots of oar population, ore thinking aot for their persooal ambitions or their parties bat for their eoaatry m · whole end humanity as · whole.
