TO GET SPEEDY VERDICTS.
The Enquirf.r-Sl t n has strongly advo
cated some change in the laws
whereby the tedious delays to
which civil and criminal cases are
subjected in the courts could be avoided.
This is a matter of great importance to
the people of the entire State, and we are
glad to note the evidences of deep interest
which are being manifested. There is now
pending before the Genera! Assembly a
measure which partially meets this demand,
iu that it provides for a change in the man
ner of obtaining verdicts in civil cases in
this State. This should be made to appiv
to criminal cases also, where the evils of
delays, mistrials, &c., are severely felt,
and have much to do with bringing the
administration of law into contempt and
inciting a spirit of indignation which it is
difficult to restrain from venting itself in
acts of violence.
The bill referred to has been introduced
by Mr. Williams, of Richmond, and he
promises to devote his best efforts to gain
its passage this term.
As the law now stands whenever the
jurymen do not unanimously agree there
is a mistrial. Mr. Williams’ bill makes
three-fourths of the jury necessary to a
verdict. In an interview he is quoted as
saying:
“Why, it costs Georgia hundreds of
thousands of dollars per anuum trying
cases over after a mistrial has been de
dared. As it is now, oue biased man on
a jury can defeat a suit. In criminal
cases, I think the old common law of
England should always prevail. A man
should be tried by twelve of his peers who
know him and who can judge of his
motives. But it is not necessary in civil
cases. Why, iu continent Europe today
the judge tries, as judge and jury, all civil
cases. In several States now only a ma
jority of the jury is necessary to make a
verdict in civil eases, and the rule has
worked like a charm. All over the Stab
I have received information, both from
judges and lawyers, and the people favor
iug tliis amendment. Mr. Peabody, of
Columbus, read an able paper on this sub
ject before the Georgia Bar Association
in Augusta last spring. It is gaining in
favor everywhere, and I am going to make
a big effort to pass it.”
The bill should also apply to criminal
cases, and to do this the constitution would
have to be amended. The Legislature
might prevent a constitutional amendment
conferring power upon the General As
sernbly to pass a law making a verdict
valid rendered by less than twelve jurors,
and the mode could then be decided mak
ing the rule a majority or two-thirds
or five-sixths. Something should be done
in the matter.
The Legislature can enact no law more
in the interest of public peace and good
government than one which will secure
speedy verdicts in civil and criminal cases,
and stop the evil of mistrials, vexatious
delays and continuances.
A DESTRUCTIVE CYCLONE.
THE COTTON MOVEMENT.
The New York Press is partisan, hut it
is frank. It wishes the Force bill passed
because it would reduce the Democratic
representation in Congress and in the elec
toral college. In a nutshell, this is the
sole Republican argument iu favor of the
bill.
Some of the newspapers are suggesting
(’hark s A. Dana, of the New York Sun,
for the New York Senatorship. The
Philadelphia Record tersely says that the
only objection to Mr. Dana is that he isn’t
a Democrat. Tnis about covers Mr. Dana’s
(’rank Sued, who is starving himself in
midst of plenty, is beginning to complain
about the disappearance of his flesh. He
remarked a few days ago: “1 loozaine fifta
pun. I link, dis fas’.” lie will be lucky
it he gets out with anything on his bones.
Mrs. Romero, wife of the Mexican min
ister at Washington, has had the back of
her neck photographed, and a contem
porary wauls to know why President Har
rison didn t refer to the fact in his mes-
“FIGURES THAT LIE.”
The true inwardness of the pending In
dian troubles has at last been disclosed.
Porter s bogus census is at the bottom of
the whole busiuess. Last summer, when
the enumerators were at work, the great
chiefs, “Two Strike,” “Short Bull,”
“( row Dog.” “High Pipe” and others
looked on placidly, believing that the
count would be honest. They did not
know Porter. Later, when the ceusus
began to be repudiated from one
end of the country, these able
chiefs began a little investigation
of their own. They found tiiat large num
bers of their braves, and squaws, and
papooses had been ruthlessly omitted from
tin- census. Now the census has a differ
ent sort of importance for t he Indian than
for the pale face. A correct census is
largely a matter of pride with the latter.
With the former it is a matter of meat and
bread. The government supplies the red
skin with rations according to the popula
tion of the tribes. When the mighty
chiefs found tiiat. the census had
been a fraud, and saw that it meant
short rations and perhaps starvation
they began to look up their old paint, pots
and feathers, and with the'arms and am
munition sold them by the agents, took to
the war dance. In an interview which the
chiefs have just had with General Brooke,
the burden of their talk was “the figures
that lie. ' They charge tiiat the Great
Father is trying to cheat and starve them,
and that he has broken his promises to
them. There is much truth in what they
say, and there is little wonder that they
have now decided to go in for “one bi<r
eat,” and a last fight.
The New York Financial and Commer
cial Chronicle, of the Gth of December,
gives the following report of the move
ment of the crop for the week ending Fri
day, the 5th :
The total receipts have reached 241,318
bales, against 253,091 bales last week and
2(50,044 bales the previous week, making
the total receipts since the 1st of Septem
ber, 1890, 3,440,570 bales, against 3,304,-
803 bales for the same period of 18S9,
showing an increase since September 1
1890, of 75,707 bales.
The exports for the week ending
Friday evening reached a total of
20(5,032 bales, of which 103,154
were to Great Britain, 29,000 to France
and 75,479 to the rest of the Continent.
The imports into Continental ports this
week have been 100,000.
These figures indicate an in
crease in the cotton in sight Friday night
of 150,547 bales as compared with
the same date of 1889, an increase of
580,294 bales as compared with corres
ponding date of 1888, and an increase of
52,021 bales as compared with 1887.
The total receipts from the plantations
since September 1, 1890, are 3,810,788
bales; in 1889 were 3,023,107 bales; iu
1888 were 3,194,812 bales.
Although thejreceipts at the outports
the past week were 211,318 bales, the actual
movemeut from the plantations was 279,-
181 bales, the balance going to increase
the stocks at the interior towns. Last
year the receipts from the plantations
for the same week were 288,337 bales, and
for 1888 they were 277,89S bales.
The totals show that the oid interior
stocks have increased during the week
35,285 bales, and were Friday night
115,575 bales more than at the same period
last year. The receipts at the same towns
have been 31,989 bales more than the
same week last year, and since September
1 the receipts at all the towns are 227,657
bales more than for the same time in 1889
Regarding the speculative movement,
the Chronicle says:
The speculation in eoDon for future de
livery at this market opened the week
under review with some show of strength,
due mainly to the comparatively small crop
movemeut; but on Monday there was a
fresh and important decline. On Tuesday
there was a slight improvement, especially
in the spring months; and on Wednesday
a stronger closing at Liverpool caused a
buoyant market, a brisk demaud from the
“bears" to cover contracts, and the notably
small receipts at the ports on that
day. On Thursday a small advance at the
opening was soon lost. Fresh buying to
cover contracts, however, stimulated by
the small crop movement, caused renewed
buoyancy. The market opened this morn
ing at a smart advance, in response to a
decidedly stronger report from Liverpool,
but the advance was soon checked by the
larger receipts at interior towns and the
early advance was soon lost. Then a
further decline took place, ascribed to the
depression iu tone due to the difficulty in
negotiating sterling exchange. Cotton on
the spot was easier to buy on Tuesday, but
not quotably lower. Friday the market
was quiet at 9 7-10c for middling uplands.
Governor Hill pardoned a life prisoner
out of Sing Sing the other day on condi
tion that he would abstain from all intoxi
cating drinks for five years. If this condi
tion is violated, he must return and finish
out his life sentence. If that prospect
doesn't keep him sober, it is hard to see
what will.
The New York Herald is not satisfied
with the brief reference to the Barrundia
case in die President’s message, and de
mands that the official correspondence
ami documents relating to the subject be
given to the public. Congress made a re
quest for this correspondence some time
ago, but it was not forthcoming. The
conduct of the administration in this case
has been anything but creditable.
DWELLINGS UNROOFED—SEVERAL LIVES
LOST—CURIOUS FREAKS.
Five Points, Ala., December 8.—
[Special.]—One of the most destructive
cyclones ever know in this section passed
near this place at 7 o’clock yesterday
morning. From what can be learned at
present, it originated six or seven miles
southwest of here, and traveled in a north-
easternly course the same distance north,
which would make its destructive course
eight or ten miles long. The first serious
damage done was the unroofing of the
dwelling of Mr. Tom House, and then
passing on without much damage till it
struck the residence of D. C. Sharp. Here
it seemed as if it gave the house a wrench,
undermining the walls and letting the
large, heavy roof fall back, crushing every
thing underneath. Charley Sharp, eldest
son of Mr. Sharp, had not risen from bed,
and his children ran in the room where he
was at the first warning for protection, he
telling them to get on the bed for better
protection.
Just as they did so the roof fell catchin
them all under it, instantly killing the
second oldest, Leila, a young lady about
eighteen years old, and seriously if not
fatally injuring his elder daughler, Flora.
Charley escaped, as well as the younger
children, without a- scratch.
Passing on 100 yards it struck the house of
R. J. Tomlinson, completely demolishin
it, leaving only a portion of one room
standing and part of the hall. Most of the
family ran out in the hall at the first shock,
which saved their lives. Two of his elder
daughters were in the dining room prepar
ing the table for breakfast. A stack
chimney was blown down ou them hurry
ing them under a mass of rock and dirt,
badly hurting one of his children aad bruis
ing the other. Half a mile further it
struck the house of E. V. Slay, which was
of heavy hewed logs, scattering them in
every direction, hurting seriously his wife
and iittle daughter, it also tore the top
off the house of Mr. Joe Daniel, hurting
him very badly. The roof was biown off
the dwelling of Jesse Deloach, Jr., but
providentially no one was at home.
No house was in its track for a mile or
more, till it reached the house of Gipson
Whatley, Jr., which was a log oue. He
and his wife were bureid under the debris,
but fortunately escaped with slight hurts,
ilis pocket book, which was between the
mattresses, was blown a hundred yards
and lodged in a tree, and reliable
men sav that a glass lamp, which he used
tiie night before, was blown away several
hundred feet, with the burner twisted com
pletely out of it and neither injured. The
residences of Joseph Hammond and his
son-in-law, Roe Pepper’s, were uuroofed,
as well as a large and costly barn of J. H.
Hand’s.
Here another strange freak occurred,
which was the blowing off of a window
frame—that is, the large outside part
nailed to the studding, sash and all clear
out, or rattier in, and not hurting another
part of his Building. From here the dam
age done was of a minor character, such as
unroofing stables, barns and outhouses,
blowing down timber, fences, etc. All the
timber in its track was swept down, and in
a great many places the woods were swept
as clean as a floor, with here and there
bushes and tree tops white with cotton
from the cotton houses blown away.
As far as I can learn, no stock were
killed or injured. Something very strange
was noticed at R. J. Tomlinson’s, where
an old, disused shelter was standing iu a
hundred feet of his dwelling, apparently
ready to fall a; any time previously, but
not even a board was blown off.
The neighbors came forward and ren
dered all the assistance possible to the
afflicted and distressed ones, so that the
wounded are doing as well as might be ex
pected.
Miss Leila Sharp will be buried today
at the family yard, two miles west of here.
Mr. Farris Coleman, of Stroud, and
Miss Carrie Wallace, daughter of our
townsman G. W. Wallace, Esq., were mar-
lied this morning. We extend congratu
lations to the happy couple.
HANGING AT TY-TV.
Ty-Ty, Ga., December 8.—[Special.] —
The negro, Lewis Watson, who was tried,
convicted and sentenced to hang for the
murder of another negro at the fall term
of the Worth county Superior Court, was
executed Friday publicly at Isabella. A
large crowd of people witnessed the hang-
, a majority of whom were negroes. A
few minutes after 11 o’clock a. m. the con
demned man was taken from hi s cell by
Sheriff Cox and Deputy Sheriff G. S.
Nelson, and conducted to the gallows un
der a strong guard. He ascended tiie
scaffold with a firm step and appeared
perfectly composed and not in the least
excited. When told by Sheriff Cox if he
had anything to say to do so, he talked
about thirty minutes, and said in sub
stance he had made peace with God and
was prepared to die, and exhorted his peo
ple to take warning from his sad end and
not do as he had done, but to shun bad com
pany and all manner of crimes and never
become a public show for the people as I
am today. 1 have made peace with God
and I hope you will all prepare to meet me
in Heaven. At 12:04 o’clock the drop
fell and Lewis Watson’s body was dang
ling in tiie air. The body hung one hour
and twenty minutes when life was pro
nounced extinct by Doctors W. L. Siks
and Hall, and the body was taken down
aad turned over to relatives and friends of
the deceased.
AMEKICUS NOTES.
A.mekicus, Ga., December 8.—[Special.]
A Democratic primary having been decided

to serve for the ensuing two years, three
candidates for Mayor have announced
themselves to date. Mayor J. B. Felder is
a candidate for re-election; Messrs. John
A. Cobb and P. H. Williams have signified
their willingness to serve the city iu this
capacity, but there is quite a diversity of
opinion as to their eligibility, both of them
being Alderman at present and their terms
have not yet expired. Candidates for
aldermen have have not yet announced
To fill the vacancy created by the death
Maj. Furlow, who was renominated to
the office of Tax Collector, which position
he held at the time of his death, some

Our citizens would rejoice to see Judge
Fort made a member of the State Railroad

VICTIMS OF DELAMATKK’S FAILURE.
Meadville, Pa., December 8.—Reports
continue to come iu of uew sufferers who
have lost moie or less heavily in the col
lapse of Delamater & Co.’s bank, and a
banker of this city said that a cautious
estimate of the total liabilities would not
be less than §500,000. It may reach
800,009. Of course nothing positive is
known about the firms assets, but the most
saDguine do not hope for more than fifty
cents on the dollar. The whole city is
restless and excited. Merchants, even
those who have not lost directly, say the
damage to their trade will be considerable
as so many private individuals had de
posits in the bank.

the Belgian training ship, Ville d’Anvers,
foundered at sea. She has on board one

to the training ship, and does not believe
the report that she has foundered.
