This Judgment was that the ofticers held over until the election In 1882, Judges Walker, Sheldon, and Scholfeld dissented from this judgment. The only interest on the part of the general public was in having the case deelded, so that there would be no room for disputed elections this fall, In de- elding that the officers may hold over until 1892 the Court set asiite the two opposing theories that there would have to be an elec- tion in 1881 and that the oflices would be vacant this fall and would have to be filled, the Judicial offices by the Governor, and the others by the County Boards, The matter is now settled, and next year there will bo a now deal at the election then. e THE BLOOMINGTON ae came FOR MUR- B) A vast mob is unquestionably 1 frightful thing.

Jn frontler com- munities, where courts of justice ara not yet wotl organized, the Inw of self-preservation prompts the people to punish erlino aAumuarily, The murderer and tho horse- tlie aro pursued and lynched, . be- enuse otherwise thoy would go free to shoot and steal. at pleasure, In the older communities It is possible to reduce Inw.to thy refinement of quibble, and tech- nicallty, and supersedens, and to strain tha quality of marcy to mere sentimentality, In such ease It Js as natural for the Inw of sclf- preservation to arouse a community to swift and terrible punishment a8 when there are no orgunized courts, ‘The people of Bloom- ington had renched the conviction that the aw agatnst murder in that Judielal district ig so administered ns to no longer afford pro- tection for human Ifo or to act asndetorrent to crimes of violence, ‘That is the reason why the horse-thief Pieres was lynched for the unprovoked and outrageous murder of datler Franks. E It is satd that there hns been nathing In the nature of 8 mob in MeLean County, where Bloomlugton Is situated, since 1885, ‘Thiy fact shows that the people are wonderfully Inclined to bo peaceable and law-abiding cit- izens, notwithstanding nuinerous fallures of the legal machinery to do justice, Buta re- cont experience had convinced these peovle that there was amajl chance for the proper punishment of Plerco as the Jaw was adinin- Istered, Another murderer, ona Patsy De- vine, after a fair trial and conviction Ina case which admitted of no doubt or justitl- catlon or pulilution, had Just procured a su- persadens from the Supreme Court and was given w new chance to escape through mere technical quibble, Iorce’s crime was ex- coptionally outragcons, ‘Thedaller whom he murdered was nina of kind heart; ho was loved and respected even by the prisoners whom he guarded.

THE PRICE OF CORN V8, CONSUMPTION. An item in yesterday's Trinuxe In regard to the present glut of grain In the Chicago warehouses reads: There are over cloven million bushols of grain in Chicago warehouses, nuarly seven millions hala corn alone. The clevators are practically filled to thelr utmost cxpacity, There ure no antes for shipment, except grain of tho lowest grailes. The reasan is that the enormous prives at which tho standard grades fre held are too nich for the shipper. Rven tho low freights, which at present nre below anything which tho wildeat Itnaginition could hnve foreseen, do not offer any inducement to ahippers to buy thecorn nt tho fancy prices put pati it. ‘The present price of corn in this market, 74 cents per bushel, is about 7 por cent above tho average specte price of former years; white other cereals have advanced about 40 per cent. ‘The increase in the price of corn Is so markedly disproporttonate, especially ata time when corn oceuples filly half the storage capacity of our elevators, as to suggest the question, ‘Is it worth the money??? This extraordinary advance ts professedly based upon the belief that the corn crop of the United States Is some 40 percent less this year than in 1830, Recent statements do hot verify this estimate; and, even tf they did, It is not evident that the elreum- stances of the caso would warrant such an unprecedented upward movement in quotations,» It now appears probable that there 1s actually more corn for salethan at the same date it any previous year, with much fess demant for {t, ‘The weathor of Jnst winter and spring was not favorable to the curing of corn in cribs, and that which camo forward early in the summor graded so low that it would not fill contracts for fut- uredelivery, ‘This Induced tho owners to hold tt back and sell it on longer futures, while buying back the contracts they hid made to deliver Il enrlicr. The result was a very slow forward movement of corn durlig the summer, which Jed many to belleve that there was Ilttle corn to bo moved. ‘I'he fact is, however, that there Is still nn unusually large quantity of corn In or near, first hands, and the high prices ure stimulating farmers to bring out the aceututations of former years. In some parts of the country, and notably In Towa, thoy are pressing It for sule so freely that tho railroads cannot touch the corn stored Jn cribs during Jast winter, tho cur- rent deliveries from wagon fully taxing the facilities for transportation, One - cannot realize the extent of this pressure without remembering that an advance of 7 per cent in Chicago means a great deal more per ‘cent tothe farmer, because roll freights are no higher than they used to be, In former years 20 cents per bushel to the Iowa farmer has been a good price far corn. Now he can obtain 55 cents, or an inerease of 176 per cent. And “most of him’? is wise enough to ree that such conditions cannot Inst for over. Henee he is selling freely, the high prices bringing out many a stock held over from two and threo years ago. On the other hand, thore Isa grent decrease in tho consumption of corn, due to these high prices, Scarcely two-thirds as much of it i¢ being used on tho farin or in the world outside as when prices wore low—por- haps little more than half, It does not pay the farmer to feed it to hogs, and accordine- ly wo have had hundreds of hogs arrive at tho Stock-Yarda within the past week which will barely average a leaf-lard yield of etght pounds per head. ‘The animals are being rushed forward to market without fatten- ing, or else they nrg fed on material which costs Jess than corn, Tho same order of things obtains among those who usually buy corn for feeding in tha Eastorn States and in Europe, They cunnot afford to feed corn to hogs at present prices, except on tho most pursimonions scale, The .quantity of corn felt to bo necded for other stock ts even less, a8 a bountiful hay crop, partly of second growth, furnishes food for cattle,’ while horses have tho additional advan- tago of plenty of oats, which drive out corn when the lutter is relatively high In price, ns It is now. ‘The distillors aresttl! at work, a8 consumers willlngly bear an ad- vance of from $1.10 to $1,18, which is a rise of about 40 per cent on the prico of the untaxed Roods; but even they are using more of other grain and less of corn than formerly, Tho manufacture of “corn sigan” which was stimulated Into activity by an abundance of cheap corn, has now been very much reduced on the Increase in price of the raw inaterial. Putting all these facts together, it certainly looks as if the men who are placing their trust in corn aro leaning on a broken vecd. ‘Their selilsh efforts to make money at the expense of blockaded commerce and suspon- sion of manufacturing industries bid falr te recoll on tholr own heads. Would it not bo well for them to pause? Tf, aa Is alleged? many of thom are members of a prominent Christin Church: which necepts tho Bibleng arulo of falth and conduct, they may proilt- ably heed the warning of Paul to ‘Timothy (we quate from the revised verelon): “They that destre to be rich fall into a temptation and 8 snare... , which somo renching allar . . . have plerced themsolyes through with many sorrows,” LAND TENURE IN SCOTLAND, Included In the cablo dispatches of Sept. 20 1s one that reads as follows: London ‘Tinea published a draft of the prepared by the Scotthih Chamber of Agriculture, aud says tt fs ou of tho most far-reaching tnen meres ‘on the lund question ever yet submitted ‘arlinment, It mukes tha strictest provision relative to com- pensation for hnprovement When My, Gladstone proposed the bill for the relief of tho Irleh tonantry from the ab- sulute feudal tenure In force In that country alarge uumber of the Liberal members of Tarllament protested, and somo withdraw from his support, One of these was the Duke of Argyll,a member of Mr, Gladstone's Cabinet, who thorenfter Inbored valiantly to { dofeat the Irish Land bil, Soyeral other members of the Liberal party, English dud Seotéh, all of thom owners of great Innded estates, ld the same thing, ‘Che Duke of Argyll ts one of the greatest tnndlords of the Kingdom, ho owning no less than 175,000 acres of land.

As this bill will surely become law, the feudal tenure by wlich Jands have been held in the United Kingdom will be practieally abolished in Lreland and Scot- land, and it will be Impossible to prevent this repeal also oxteniling to England. It is more than Iikely that the Scotch demand for fuir rent, free sate, and fixity of tenure will be In ko manner demanded by the English tenantry, and, this done, the controlling power of the comparatively few thousands of, Inndownors In the politics and governs mentof the United Kingdoin will be broken forevor. Once given, this fixity of tenure the farmers of the Kingdoin will in due tlhe become the owners of the soll they cultivate, OFFIOIAL REPORT OF THR AUTOPBY. The official report of the post-mortem ex- amination of the body of the late President, printed In ‘Tur Trinune yesterday, brings out some new facts of Interest. It ls written with much apparent candor, and the authors of it were avidently anxious to compensate by acertain fullness of detatls for the de- ficiencles of the previous hurried reports and the Inaccurncles of the bulletins printed from time to tine during the President's lifetime. ‘The new matter In this detailed statement contirms the previous impression that death was Inevitable, It seems that the vertebral coluinn was badly shattored, Tho first lum- bar vertebra was plereed through from side toaldaand “very much comminuted,” or, in common speech, broken Into a number of pieces, ‘The ilrst vertebra above was also fractured by the foree of the ball, and “soy. eral deep fissures ” extended Into it from be- low. ‘The cartilage on both slides of the yer- tebra included tn the path of the ball was torn and split, and parts of it destroyed by ulceration. In concluding the report the phystelans says Tho surgeons nealsting at the autopsy wero unnolmously of the opinion that, on reviewlug tho history of the cusy, in connection with the autopsy, It is quite evident that the different suppurating surfaces, and espeoiilly the fraot- ured spongy tlssuo of tha vertobra, furnish a suillcient axel nation of the soptio conditions whiob existed during Life, “Septle ” is doctors’ English for “ putrid.” Tho President's blood was, in the opinion of the attending surgeons, putrid; and as the cause of putridity—the shattertd spinal cohuinn—could not be removed, death must sooner or Inter have resulted from this source, if from uo other, ot But if there had beon no degeneration of the blood, nnother suflicient cnuso of death was found In the rupture of the splenic ar- tery, which was probably grazed by the ball Jn its passage, and gradually rotted away and broke. An Irregular’ mass of coagulated blood na Inrgo nga nian’s fist was found in tho abdominal cavity behind the stomach, Another quantity of loud in the samo con- dition was fonnd near the splenic extremity of the stomach. ‘Thero was no communica. tlon between the two, Finally, the wound, from within an inch of the bullet to the spluc, was filled with oxtravasted blood, which had burrowed Its way from behind the spleen into tho abdominal eavity. If death had not ensued from blood-polsontng it must have resulted from secondary hemor- rhage, ‘Tho autopsy furthor demonstrates that, If by a intracle the President had survived the shock of the wound, he must have been all hls life 8 hopeless and wretched cripple, and probably a confirmed invalid. fe could nover hays walked agaln, Ee would proba- bly have had au aggravated tonn of splual disease and died at inet in groat agony, after sulfering for months or years, It 13 doubtful If he could ever again have had full control of his imental facultlea, while he would alinost certalnly have been disabled from discharging the onerous duties of the Presi- deney, ‘ ‘The wutopay proved only too cloarly that tho attending surgeons made a false diag nosli, ‘hoy had no {dea of tho course of the ball; and the real channel was neglected by them for the auke of an ubscoss muge by the burrowing pus, Dr, Agnaw ent Into the false cavity, below the mouth of the wound, and thenceforth the real track of the ball was not merely neglacted—it was encour aged to close up, Tho blunder must be o mortifying one for the attending surgeons, aud It reflects no credit upon the profession or the present condition of surgical knowl- edga in this country, We think they would all better confess this much. But they are Justified, from presont Indleations, $n deny. {ng that the trentmont elther caused or pre- cipitated the result.
