Pick up any daily newspa per at any time and the chauces are you will find its columns large ly taken up with startling accounts of homicides, suicide aud murders —; the latter seeming to be the favorite crime.

The remedy it, to* .great extent in the hands of the..people, end tltap most apply jt,if a cure ii to be' ef- fitted- After tome, thought and obser vation,we have cqme to the coneht- eion that the carrying of deadly weapons, especially pistole, con cealed upon the peraon, is one of the most potent causes of homicide* and murders. We are confident, that if this practice ot carrying weapons concealed could he suppressed, there would be a falling off in the number of murders of at loqqt filly per cent. As we hare already, stat.ed,, the rpmpdy for this evil lie* lively with the people themselves. Not one mitn in a hundred who curries a concealed weapon, so effectually conceals it (hat it is not known ty n^r©, or 'em of l»i* acquaintances. If every man ia Taylor con,nty wjio if. cognizant of this grave offynce again*! the laws, of, our Stale, would tepoit the.tacta to the, next grand jury, wJm.doutys tha.t the sited would lie productive of great good to the people? Well, why should not auch vio lations of our penal laws be made, known? We claim to be a civili sed and Christian people, aptl yet cling to [iraqi ices tluvt if.ould dis-. grace the dark ages of the world. Wo believe it to be the duty ofeve- , ry gqqd qitizen to endeavor tq -'V^-mk.iin this pernicious ha))il;anfl to that end, that he should report^ to the gr,and .jury every case that qomes to his knowledge. Lyt this course he adopted by our people and the piacticeof carrying con cealed weapons will be a thing of the past. It ia « thing wholly without excuse. Thb writer is by no means a Hercules! yet has ney- sr carried a weapon concealed, nor has he ever had a difficulty since |e has arrived at the years <■( maq- booil. We mention this, not in a' spirit of egotism, but for the pur pose ot showing that it is wholly unnecessary to carry concealed weapons. We have said nothing with ref erence to the penalty for this of fence for the reqtW that it is whol ly unnecessary. LeJ. the offender he convicted and punishment ad equate to the offence will be inflict ed. Let os all take a “new depart ure” with reference to this matter. Let every law-abiding cititen come 4o the fixed determination that he avyll, regardless of persons or con sequences, report to the grand ju- f r every offence of this class that .comes to his knowledge. This, and this alone will suppress this perilous practice. ©r. Bull’s.Cough Syrup is fast ■takin g the place of all tha old fash ioned cough remedies.
