One WILLIS' PULýMONI(J8YUI WILL DO LC. 26ots. ]Pe rBottie. J. E. WILLI8, Chemist if Dru ggist, Medical Hall,- Erock Street, Whitby.1 *FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 1892. Gr&ad -Jurle8 »d IRouses of Iadustry. In looking over the newspaper reports of the assize courts it lias- for years heen noticeable how frequently the presiding judges refer to the usefulness of grand juries, while the grand juries in their pre- sentmnents have quite as generally referred to the dire necessity of having houses of industrv erected. Their lordships have worried their minds dreadfully,rummaging round in quest of arguments tending to show that grand jurîes have any function ta perfortn, and simultaneously the grand jurors have, set their thinkers buzzing and hûmming away manufactui-ing argu- ments and collecting cases ta cite illustra- ting the-need of a r bouse. The inter- esting feature of th e question is that the judges can induce very few besides theni- selves ta belýeve in grand juries, while the juries succeed only in convincing themn- selves on the bouse of industry question. At the Lindsay assizes on Monday Mr. Justice Rose made an innovation, inas- mucli as he took upon himself ta do the grandjury's part id talking up the bouse of industry fad, thus Igaving themn nthing to say in their p resen tment, except that they had visitedthe jail and found every- thing - dean and orderly. Thus the judges are' arrogating the whole argument to theniselves, and are leaving the grand jury with nathing to do ; for if the latter body cannot have their rightful subject niatter left9à 1one about which theyare wont ta draw uf the saine monotonous present- ment eveÇy assise, what wil they do? The coun(y judges' criniinal courts, cani- bined witb othet causes, have left thern little indeed of their judicial functon- have, for that matter, almost- done away with the necessity of holding an assise court at ahl. When gradd jury after grand jury have been called and have found nothing ta do but maire the sanie old presentinent and throw out a case or two, bath of which duties being doue at the suggestion of the judge, as made ta thern before they have considered the matter at ail, we taire it that by public consent grand jurîes will b. rated as neither ornamental nor useful in our systeni of justice. The idea of a grand. jury came,:tei us ýfrozniEugland, where this body wasof smre use, as it* served also for-a county cauncil in Ievying rates and looking-after ,county affaira ; btt where wc -have the mo 'dem system oai caunty council it is enough à r nw, and either the grand jury or county caun- cil,or bath, could b. sparpl nicely with- out freedam being unstrug.
