Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - October 21, 1875, Winnipeg, Manitoba 21, Al the. Jury we Are not the grand jury s posted it to to Jiwat Kubont what it is neither wore to surprised at tie Allu Ion in the Spocia presentment of to which w took. Exception .011 Friday which to have again come under the Rod the reason to expected just such a pro sent int As has been made was tha had been most reliably and informed that a certain grand juror a boasted that lie would see that the Loen government the free etc., wer Attoa Dod to by the grand jury. More Over this same grand juror gave it out the reference in thursday i special presentment was intended for the feb press. To think he has about As Good reason to to snips find with the result As with that of an other Effort in which to was recent engaged in a neighbouring electoral div Ision. While the. Presentment is mad up of a Good Many words and an ing at heavy imputations it Bones a stamp of curtailment. This is easily understood. Doubtless there were few other men upon that jury willing to use their position to nerve polities tricksters and their ends but not sufficient to carry out to the full the pro gramme foreshadowed upon the streets in the bar rooms and by the indiscreet individual referred to con sequently while the local government etc., have been attended after i. Manner they might have fared much worse had the grand jury been any thing nearly composed of such men As he to Whoso Freedom. Of speech to Are indebted for the Cue which now serves us so Well. Little More need to said in this connection. To Carnot however refrain remarking that the paragraph in. The presentment referring to the free evidences much More ingenuity than honesty on the part of its framers. The Plain inference to be drawn from that paragraph is that the free press reflected upon Tho conduct of the grand jury in connection with the Sioux murder. Whoever reads Tho of dior Ial complained of must be aware that to did nothing of Tho sort. The article on record and is itself the testimony that it treated Only of the paragraph in Tho amendment to the special presentment referring to the publication through the press of the presentment and notwithstanding Tho declaration that the remarks were not intended As a reflection. Upon the prose to a grand juror gave it out himself that Tho allusion was intended for Tho press and indeed this came to our hearing before we had oven seen the amendment containing it. The grand jury through their presentment say they fear our article was prompted from a Quarter from which the grand jury should expect assistance rather than censure. To apprehend the Quarter referred to is intended to mean Tho local government. If so All we have to say about it is that if the other contents of their presentment have Boon gotten up without better grounds than this Tho document is worse than Worth Loos containing not a word of truth nor an opinion founded on anything More substantial than imagination. We do not think this is Tho Case but certainly the presentment is not wanting in statements that Are absolutely incorrect in Point of fact. In regard to the Cornell murder it is stated that the government. Hugo taken no Steps whatever to ascertain the perpetrators of. Tho cowardly we speak advisedly in. Saying that the government through the Crown officers and More or. Loss under the direction of Tho. Chief Justice himself have been most assiduous in their endeavours but if in their pro fessed Zeal to ferret out this matter the grand jury have not actually frustrated Tho ends of Justice to shall to most agreeably disappointed. The grand jury ought. , because it was not a part of Street gossip w news paper intelligence it did of Tho offenders was not boing prosecuted. In Tho same connection Tho grand jury assert that the govern ment ordered the proceeds of Tho Mur dered property to to applied in paying the expenses of the Coroner s inquest. This is As. Wide of the. Truth. As the preceding statement. Tho govern ment gave no such instructions. The property being a Yoke of therefore if kept Bald to a Charger Rijk on itself the Coroner was not instructed to sell it but at the same time instructed to place Tho proceeds in the Bank of this waa no Dione still the Gor ornament y. Council that they Llo government were holding to Hie Legal representatives for the buy less the funeral expenses it is barely possible1 that the grand jury made these erroneous expressions through ignorance however that docs not excuse them for had they availed themselves of the assistance of Crown officers As was offered the they would have known what we now relate and perhaps a Good Deal More. But evidently that was not in accordance with the in conclusion we cannot forbear expressing our. Regret at the discovery that it is possible for a British jury to make such departures from accuracy and to so Strain and con tort circumstances. Kew Stobart cos House lot Fob of tha most eligible.
