YeNterday the backstol .a .d base
boundaries of the base ball grounds
were placed in position by Will
Whiteside. A halt-dozen of the boys
have obligated themselves to secure
payment for thlis work and it is ex
pected that visitors to the grounds
during practios games will help them
out by donations. With the grounds
in sbaje there remains no obstacle to
be overcome In the way of perfecting
the organization of a good team. Our
ancient enemy-the Fort Keogh olub
is in perfect trim and ready togive the
Miles club a drubbing-the usual
spring drubbing-as soon as an oppor
tunity offers. And, looking at the
matter in the light of experience, it
would be a good lesson for the Miles
City team, as it would cause the .porto
Ing people generally to take adeeper in
terest in the formation of a better club or
a permanent team. Last summer the
Keogh boysdid us up three out of flve
and the two that we beat them were
the elosing games of the season-or
after Miles had thoroughly awakened
and there came to the surface more
than a nominal intereset in the gro
ceedinpg. One thing, however, iS
sure, and that is that Keogh can evert
lastingly knock the stufting "outen"
our club at the present writing. There
are probably twenty available players,
and from these, after a reasonable
amount of practice, a team should be
selected whlch with a few changes
should be the representative club of
Miles. Practise, therefore, and let the
manager be able to exercise judgment
In the selection of the team for 1887.

would be If every one of the jury ena
tertained it. If any one memlbe of
the Jury has reasonable doubt of the
defendaot's uilt of the crlme abarged
against him, the law in its tender re
gard for the life alr liberty of the oiti
zen, has said that doubt belongs to
the accused, and to deprive hiB of Its
benefits would be to coovict him of
crime without lawful authority and
condemn him to punishment for an
offelse of which he has not been le
gally convicted. The law io ilts
xaajsty has written Ibl fundamental
principle hiI every criminal statute Ini
the land. It is engraved upon tile
benchuob, thejury box and the bar alike,

ton in bis work on criminal evidence,
I s*peaking of the presumption of Il
tiocence whi,b beloing to the ac*cused,
mays that in aeriluinal proweculioi the
state is arrayed against the subject; it
enters 'le contest with a prior iiculpa
tory finding of the grand jury in its
hands: wilth unlimited meant.; with
counsel usually of authority and capa
city, who are regarded as public oft

Judl,-alily, and with an attitude of
tranquil majesty, often in striklog

gaged in a i urturbed and distractinr
struggle fr liherly if not for life."
These inesiualities of lrositionl the law
strives to mleet by the rule that there
is to be no c.invi 'tion when there is a
reaionahle doubt of the de'endant's
guilt. And this I. the law of Mon
