Paulding Superior Court.
The arduous hborsol Paulding
Superior court for the August
term were brought to a close last
.Saturday at noon. There were in
.attendance a full bar, composed
,of f leading attorneys from every
.Ofty and village upon the jeri-
jdiery of the circle aronnd Dallas,
besides our own bar. Public ex
pectation seemed to have been
wrought up,to considerable height
by the clmraoter of the cases up-
op the crimhial docket, and the
August temperature in and out of
court room did not have much
tendency to .lower the theimome-
eter of 'excit ment. Our limited
space only permi s us to mention
the following cases, not in the or
der tLey we e called, but in the
order of impoitance and notori
ety:
There were placed upon i he stand
hue a small number of this great
array, lmwiver. Col. C D. Phil
lips conducted the examination oi
the witnesses for the state, aud
Col. John O. Gartrell for the de
fendant. Each witness was sub
mitted to, the closest aud most
rigid examination, and the cross
was sometimes uncomfortably
warm for the unfortunate witness.
Sol. "Wright opened the case by
reading the bill of indictment to
the Jury, and Col. Phillips, in his
usual style presented all the facts
of the case to the jury, and in an
argument of an hour and a half
held the Jury’s most profound at
tention. He wao followed by Col.
John O. Gartrell for the defend
ant. Steve Moore, with his faith
ful and loving wifo by his side,
was present, and not a word was
lost by either »s it fe 1 upon the
humid air of the court room,
Col. GnrtrolTs peroration was
fine legal points addressed to the
court in his opening asilio line of
argument to bo pursued, and his
elimination of all the evidonc^ot
the opposite side that promised
conviction w s m-'sterly, and hi*
final blending of the stronger
points of i he evidence with the
weaker for the defense, and out of
the whole proving his client not
giiil'y. was said t'> bo by many of
iiis friend-* and old patrons pros
en', <ne of the best argumon's ev
er adduced in old Paulding court
house.
We have been informed that
Col. Thomas W. Milluer’s argu
ment surpassed his former efforts
at this bar, we regret that wo are
not able to give his, nor the clo
sing speech of the case by ili-t old
Roman, Hon. Wm. H. Dabney,for
the prosecution. It is said that
Col. Dabney commanded the at
tention of everything within hear
ing of his rich baritone voice; he
■reviewed all the evidence from
first to las', leaving not a poim or
feature unhandled, and then fal
lowed what was thought by many
to be the clearest argument of the
caso , presented. The Judge’s
charge occupied about half hour,
it was said lo be able and impar
tial, all the law touching on the
case Was fully fxpounded to" the
jury, that a wayfaring man might
not err in rendering a verdict.
Tne jury retired and in an hour
or so returned tho following ver
dict;
We the jury find ihe defendant
not guiliy, John Lester, For.
The State vs. Marcus A. Brown,
We have not the spacy to give the
details of this trial. Brown was
charged with assault and battery.

it ware of its true stains, it would
seem perfectly superfluous to add
another soltou. e o the nlron y
well ventilated question. Our
object, however, is to set forth the
facts of the cas - briefly, in order
t > show our renders h->w it is pos
sible that the ends of tenth, jus- j
tice, etc., may often be defeated,!
and that too under the protect
ing aegis of 1 - w. The former con
dition prior to May flth„ 1882 the
liquor traffic Was under tho lo ,-ul
restriction of ihe gallon system.
The election upon the fith of May
1882 resulted in a m jofity in fa
vor of re ailing, The 1 ate < lection
in tho county resulted in nn over
whelming mnjojaty iu favor of re
striction again, and many, yea, iv
gioat many voting to prohibit
alt> gether,
The election clearly indicated
that the people of Paulding, tired
of former usage, and < f the re*
proaoli cast upon them, all on
account of liquor, had with singu
lar unanimity resolved to throw
off the shackles of that great evil
and come out upon the side of
temperance and civility, and so-
bernoss of judgment, and in the
beauty of all virtue, but what lms
been the result? Liquor is here
part o! the business of Dallas,"nd
its prerogative a part of the con
stitution of the town. Of cours"
the Legislature ol Georgia olothes
a corporation like this with pe
culiar p >wers and privlipos.
The council lmd a perfect right
to fix the license at $1000 instead
of $3000, which latter figure
should have been the ono. Bui
here lieB the question: Has not
tho popular will been defoatod?
Are not the people still iu favor
of prohibition? Have the ends of
justice to the inaj- ri y been mot?
THE L1QUOK QUESTION.
Our views upon the liquor
quesiion, so far as it pertains to
this county, have been so often set
forth in general and pertinent
writing in the columns of the Era,
and the whole question now hat
ing been fully settled, that all are
