Tt is a vexed question and Mr. Stone wants it settled. He is a good law- yer and will hunt this to the bottom.” “A good lawyer” should know that the Federal constitution divides the United States government into three co-ordinate branches, to-wit: The Legislative, Judicial and Excutive. Congress makes the laws, the judi cial expounds them and the excutive enforces them. It is difficult to de- termine how, and in what manner, Congress can interfere with thecourts of the federal government in ex pounding the laws of the United States, ina matter where, under ex- isting law, the courts have acquired jurisdiction of the person and sub- ject matter under consideration, and particularly ona question of prac- tice so well settled, as the right of a judicial tribunal to punish a person or corporation, through its agents and servants, for contempt of court. Such a proceeding on the part of congress or the legislature of a state, is: it not only unknown, but unthought of, even amoung ‘good lawyers,’ as it would uusettle the whole fabric of our government. No, the resolu- tion referred to, in the above article, isa piece of buncombe, and will never be brought to light in any partical shape, so as to relieve the judges of St. Clair or any other coun- ty. No one knows this better than Congressman Stone. It was un doubtly designed for present use before the people of St. Ulair county. Lx. Grand Jury Report. To the honorable Circuit Court of Bates county” Missouri. We the grand jury beg leave to make the following report: We visited the jail and found that ancient institution in as good con- dition as could be expected with re- gard to cleanliness and the prisonersas comfortable as they could be in such a dilapidated and miserable place. The prisoners appear to be well treat ed by the sheriff and his deputies. We find the building unsafe, dilapi- dated and entirely unfit for the use for which it was designed and in our opinion it is unfit for occupation, either as a jail or dwelling. That its further use for either purpose should be discontinued and another erected to supply the place of the one which is now by courtesy called a jail. The books in the county clerks office appear to be neatly kept and the account of different funds kept in good shape and from our inspec- tion of this office we would say that it was satisfactorily kept. Wewould advise the procuring of a book case for the keeping of the Missouri Re- ports, also that some room will have to be provided for the storing of the assessment lists or they will have to be destroyed for they are accumulat- ing at the rate of nine thousand a year. In the recorders office we found, so far as we could see, is kept in good order. All the business of the office is written up to date. Would call attention to the fact that one of the iron doors of the vault in which the books are kept is out of repair there by endangering the records in case of fire. We found the sheriff's office in good order and found the office well supplied with blanks and other fix- tures. % We find in the Circuit clerk's office, the books are kept neat and clean and his entries up to date. A fire proof vault is needed in the office to pre tect the valuable records contained therein. In the County Treasurer's office we found the books neatly kept. The different account showing the con- dition of their various funds in the hands of the treasurer and so far as we were able to judge from the casual examination we were able to give tothe books and manner of conducting the office, feel satisfied in saying that eyerything partaining to the office is in a satisfactory con- dition. In the Probate’s office we found the books in good shape and written up to date. : D. N. Txompson, Estes Syura; Secretary. Mr. Medill, of the Chicago Tribune isin Fiorida.

Kansas City Times A meeting of the stockholders of the K.C.&8. A. railway was held at the company's office in the Bay- ard building yesterday morning, at which time the capital stock was increased from $2,500,000, to $3,- 000,000, and the bonded indebted- ness $2,485,000 to $3,000,000. The contracts for the construction of the line between Kansas City and Pierce City including grading, ties, rails, fastenings, masonry, bridges,fencing, depots yards, etc., was let to the Kansas City and Sabine Pass con- struction company, officers of which are the officials of the railroad com- pany. Itis the intention of the company to complete that part of the line, which is 117 miles in length this year, and the remainder, between Pierce City and Sabine Pass. a dis- tance of 547 miles, next year. Some work will be done on that section this year but under other compan. ies. Aline is now being constructed north from the crossing of the Red river toward Ft. Smith and another line is being built north from Sabine Pass. These will be utilized when the connections are made. The line between this city is to be built on a grade of less than one per cent.: that being the maximum figure. The first point of importance on the line south of this city touched by the line is Belton, where a crossing is made with the Gulf route. At West Line the Missouri Pacific is crossed. The road then runs down through Ellis and Lamar to Pierce City. In Cass county the line enters the heart of the magnificent sandstone quarries, touches the oil wells and magnificent coal fields of Bates coun- ty and makes direct connection with the Frisco’s T xas line, making the shortest line to all Texas Points. At Lamar the road runs through the zine country where the company now has in operation one of the finest steam coal mines in that section. The terminal facilities in this city have not been fully determined up on as yet but will be ina few days. The line enters the city from the south, coming down the Blue valley and connecting with the belt line at point near where the St. Paul road enters the city. In speaking of the line Captain William Anderson, general manager, said: “We are now in shape to push matters and will complete our line to Pierce City this year. The surveys have been made, the right of way purchased and the contracts made. We have not yet made our arrange- ments for terminals, but will do so ina few days. We will have the short line to tidewater by about 225 miles. The distance to tidewater by the Pennsylvania is 1,348 miles, by the B. & O. 1,237, the Gulf route 881, the Missouri Pacific 885 miles, the Santa Fe 1,000 miles and our lige 664 miles, or 24 hours’ ride. We maintain that the natural channel of trade is the same as that of rivers. The country west, north and east of Kansas City is higher than this city consequently this is the pocket into which all the products of that coun- try must pour very soon. We are preparing to do the business.” “Is your system backed by the ’Fritco?” “I can't say who is backing the en- terprise at present. All the money necessary to build the road is at our disposal and we will build it. We had a deal with the Frisco but did not see the color of their money. Our line when completed to Pierce City will give the ‘Frisco a direct line from Texas to Kansas City, pro- viding they want to use it.” In railroad circles in this and oth- cities it is generally conceded to be a’Frisco scheme. It is the same route that has been selected by the 'Frisco engineers and the belief1s con- firmed by the fact that the contracts have been let only to Pierce City. William’s Australian Herb Pills.
