The New Orleans Times ll mocrat la-ments the t limine; down of Mills, and says of Speaker Cltisl": ' Already, by iiis M'iiM-iio- ut members of the various committees, ho has engendered au amount of ill feeling that promises to Interfere greatly with the harmonious action of the party, if not to paralyze it altogether for the enactment of any dis-tinctive democratic legislation." The Atlanta Journal -- ays tin- speaker "made a deplorable blunder in not placing Mills here he rightly belongs," and I that thf organisation of the ways and ' means committee "is in the nature of "a retreat from the position the party has occupied ever since the opening of the Fiftieth congress. " There is much more of the same sort of criticism in the columns of the demo-cratic press, and if it does not mean discord and factional antagonism in the near future we are not good judges of human nature.

Jl tjd, formerly associate justice of the 8iiiv!iH coiiil of I't.ili, and a former Tennciseeau, speaks in terms of hlghesl praise of Hon. J. A. Wash-ington ul Tennessee, who was recently appointed ohaifman of ihe house committee on territories. Judge Ji i i says that Mr. Washington is comparalivelv a voiing man whom be knows as a gentleman of integrity of character ami line ability; one whose career he has watched with interest aud whose course has fully justified the most sanguine anticipations of Iiis friends. The judge furthermore says that the new chaii man is a man of broad and comprehensive views, well posted and keenly alive to the needs of the great west, and that for the important posi-tion assigned him by Speaker CBI8P, he is, emphatically speaking, the right man in the right place. SCORED A GOOD POINT. W. lim-- lislened to torlM In til" Jury room ver slnee the trial commenced, and, If it please JuiL'e I"than, wo would much prefer tliat ho Coid'nic himself 1. tlm tai ls and the law in the case. We are tired. When Juror Stein interrupted coun-sel fur the defense in the celebrated Graves poisoning ease, now in pro-gress at Denver, in the words above quoted, he touched the keynote of the alius,, of the jury system. Ac-cording to report it produced a tre-mendous sensation; the eloquent lawyer was speechless with amazement. There w a- -, however, no cause for this. Mr. Stkin but exhibited bis common sense. A story is told of a now celebrated at-torney who, when he first appeared before the United States supreme court to argue a case, started iu to make a speech such as he had been in the habit of inflicting on juries. He. was at onco stopped with the remark: "Counsel will please confine himself to the law in the case; we have no time to listen to eloquence." This same rule should apply in jury trials. H would result in more justice being done, Attorneys too of-ten instead of couliniug themselves to the facts and (he law, try to befuddle the mind of the juror or to overawe hiin with eloquence. This is not right. The jury should be composed of intel-ligent men. That is the iuteut of the law. These intelligent men are as com-petent to weigh evidence us is counsel, in fact more so, because they are dis interested It is the duly of the court to instruct in regard to the law. There is no need for eloquent, entertaining, scriptural, comic or pathetic speeches from counsel.- Their place is to exam iue witnesses in a manner so as to bring before the jury all the facts and to elicit any evidence which may lend to estab-lis-the credibility of testimony. The minute they go further than that they develop the defect in the jury system. Till: NEW KANSAS SENATOR. Former Kansas residents in Salt Lake City refer to Hun. B. W. PERKINS, the newly-appoinlc- .senator from Kan-sas, iu high terms. He is spoken of as a man of more than ordinary ability, and as one whose experience of eight years in the national house of representatives, terminating with the Flfty-flf-st con-gress, will lie of decided advantage to his constituents and to himself. The dispatches state that he is ."ill years old, while tlie congressional directory gives the dale of his birth October 18, 1M1. It would Indeed be a cold day for Ohio if littlr Fire-Alar- Fobaksb were to turn down John Bbbbjcah. The country needs -- ueh men :ts "Honest John," liul such men :is I'okakkk would never lie missed, unless because of the unusual quiet that would reign in his aecuslomed haunts. Mr. KoiiAKF.n in politic! calls lo mind a cartoon that was once sprunn; on ( 'orporal Tannek, late of pension bureau fame. High u a bank of clouds stood Ihe Attgei Caiiuikl with trumpet iu hand, iielow on earth was Corporal Tanneh, and from between his lips came a rushing torrent of word-- . (Iauuif.i. looked weary; he had evidently been Waiting some time bul finally he raised his voice and called aloud: "Corporal Tan.ner, please permit me to blow this trumpet." "What are you poing to do about itf" was the impudent inquiry of that great New York democrat, Boss TWEED, a little more than twenty years ago. The unprincipled leaders of New-Yor-democracy don't put language in iu that form just now, but they arc carrying out the sentiment embodied in it ju-- t the same, Systematic organization is being etl'ected in Iowa for the sending of pro-visions to famine-stricke- Russia. Un-questionably a few shiploads of Ihe 383,000,000 bushels of corn raised in ihe Hawkeye state last year will be highly appreciated by the starving millions of the e.ar's domain. The senatorial light is on in dead earnest between the friends of Sher-man and FORARE R iu Ohio. :iml the probability has been suggested that Secretary Foster may walk away with the plum as a dark horse. We shall soon see what we shall see. . . STJT1IJK LABOK LHOISLATIOK, While it must be freely conceded that all classes of eitiens, and especially those who are. the least able to defend their interests and rights, should claim thefulljineasure of protection which the legislature is authorized to give thein, it has become apparent that much of the legislation secured in response to the demands of professional agitators is utterly futile at d incapable of pro-ducing the re-ul- is intended. The main cause of this is found in the fact that the objects sought for one class or in-terest cannot be obtained without trenching upon or clashing with the rights of others. Kvery cilien stands upon an equality before the law. ami no one can be helped or hindered at the expense of another. When this prin ciplo is lost sight of in legislation, the courts may be appealed to by the aggrieved parties, and the acts com-plained of must stand the test of judi-cial scrutiny. Among the laws passed recently in Massachusetts was one In the interest of weavers, which provided that no em-ployer should withhold any p irt of the wages of an employe because of imper-fections in the work. The purpose of this law was to prevent the making of an agreement or contract under which the employer could decline to pay an employe w ho had done imperfect work until such time as a settlement could be had. The law was tested by an em-ployer who refused to pay in full a workman who had turned out imperfect work. Suit was brought and the employer was sentenced to pay a line. On an appeal to the supreme court the sentence was reversed and the statute declared unconstitutional and void: The court said "There are certaiu fundamental rights of every citizen which are recognized in the or-ganic law of all our free Aiuencan states. A statute which violates any of these rights is unconstitutional and void, even though the enactment of it is not expressly forbidden. The con-stitution of M assaehusetts guarantees to the citizen the right of acquiring, possessing and protecting property, and tin- - includes the right to make reasonable contracts." The legislature cannot pass a law which will deprive a citizen of his right lo make a reasonable agreement, or give an undue advantage to one per-o- u or class over another. A good deal of recent labor legislation is of that char-acter, and whenever it comes before the courts it must fail for want of val-idity. A caucus of the democratic members elect of the territorial legislature has been called for the !)th inst. As yet we have not learned when the republican' caucus will lie called. COMMUNICATIONS.
