te tbe action of the Pennsylvania railroad en
Friday of laat week. Te compete with the
Reading read te Lebanon the Pennsylvania
aell al any time one day excursion tlcketa te
Lebanon for 11.15. Yet tbe Pennsylvania
charged te Mt. Gretna 11.40, tbe latter place
being nine mllea nearer LAOeaster than
Lebanon. Oa Friday when a large number
el our citizens requested excursion tlcketa te
Lebanon tbey were refuaed, being told In
net a very pleasant manner "we ate out of
tlcketa te Lebanon," (which te a geed many
waa considered an open question ) Heme
favorite few procured aucb tlcketa and the
only recourse lelt these desiring te go waa te
purchase a ticket te Mt Uretna for f 1.40 and
from there pay 40 centa te Lebanon and re

Tbe exclamations of the large number of

The August court of quarter aesslena waa
opened at 10 o'clock thla morning, with
Judge Patterson presiding. There have been

eaaee down for trial are : Samuel Head, high
way robbery ( Jehn Hoever, horse stealing 1

JehnS. Gingrich, miller, of East Hemp
field township, wsa appointed foreman of tbe
grand Inqutst and Ibe oath te perform their
dutlea without fear, favor or affection, waa
administered te tbe lereman and hla col
league. After Instructing the grand Jury aa
te a proper performance of their dutlia,
Judge Patterson referred specially te some
abuses. He aald there were many oom eom oem
plalnt duplicated by the Justice and
aldermen below, If the reports of
newspapers were te be belle ved, but
they are net geed authority. He Ulua
trated tbe above remsrka by citing tbe cases
of a number of tramtis recently returned by
an alderman and a Justice separately, when
they abeuld have been Indicted Jointly. He
did net knew whether the district attorney
bad Indicted them aeparalely, If 10 tbe oeurt
would allow but one bill el cost. Thla waa
net an opinion of the court, but an act of
assembly governs the matter. In the tame
way It Is tbe praatloset aldermen and Justlcea
te have two oemplalnt made when a man
under the Intluenoeef liquor atrlkea another.
One oemplalnt drawn la assault and battery
and the ether drunkenneaa and disorderly
oenduct Tbe latter ellenae la merged In the
former eflense and there Is no necessity for
tbe two etlensea, and no law te allow pay for
mere than one case. If he told tbe grand
Inquest the amount bl money taken out of
county treasury le this way tbey would be
astonished.
Tbe Judge also iuntructed the graild In
quest te Inquire who are tbe orlginateiH of
the cAsee brought before them. Whether tbe
prosecution la the free will of these who ap
pear aa tbe oeinplaluanta or whether tbe
prosecutions were Instigated by the alderman
or constables. If the canes are petty and
brought without authority, then the cotta
tbeuld be put upon the ottleer. The only
time for an efllcer te bring a ault la when he
aeea a breach of tbe peace. If such a ault la
brought by him, net en bW view, he may
have tbeoeata Imposed upon hliu. There are
many petty caw of assault and battery,mall
clout inltcbiel and larceny brought Inte court
only because oltleera puth them. If thla
kind of bualneaa cannot be stepped theu It la
time te change tbe law. He ws Informed
that there are policemen In thla city, who In
addition te their salary of tM) per mentb,
make 1300 te flOO per month In lee. Thla
compensation la belter tban that paid te that
Judge holding court, with half the labor. He
concluded this part of the charge by stating
that be oeuld net new point te.any Individ
ual caaes. He merely suggested tbe above
for the consideration el the grand Jury.
The Judge next referred te tbe cases ou the
list for violating the election law, which he
aald were unusual for tbia county. They
were such oir.mnen however of which the
oeurt waa bound te take notice. Tbe viola
tion of the law are se unjust rt tbe standard
of rights guaranteed by the oenatltutiou that
the crime becomes treaneu againat the dear
eat rights of the people. While tbe ellenae la
made by our law a misdemeanor, It la a high
crime because It deleal the will of tbe peo
ple aa expreesed by the ballet Hla
honor next quoted tbe utterance of Presi
dent Cleveland, lu hli letter refusing te par
don a party convicted of violating tbe elec
tion law and aald be approved every word
el It The election law tinder which the
parties are returned waa read for tbe benefit
el tbe Jury. In conclusion tbe Jury were
instructed te visit the county Institutions and
condemn what they found wrong and com
mend where the management ia proper, and
make a report when their labors were com
pleted, after which tbey retired te their room
and began their labors.
