Jones, dated' Nushville, Tenn.,
Mar. aSth and published in Sat
urday’t, Atlanta Journal on the
subject of “Fighting Saloons in
Tennessee,'’ in which lie makes
reference to the Nashville papers
in the following words:
"There are three dally papers pub
lished In Nashville, but they seem to
me to occupy the some attitude towards

"Now they’ve got up a big Issue and
fuss here over these saloons, but," she
said, "lam not going totake any sides

l think tlint's tho attitude ot the dally
press here in Nashvillo towards the is

win, and thoy rather be "nuisance"
than to get on the side that don’t win.

a stand is prima facie evidence of cow

afraid tp take a stand for fear he will
loae money or friends, or he is on the

A question which has been dit
considerably by several of
ly’s citizens of late is in regard
tolpubltshing the lists of juries,
Some say that a law should be
pnssed requiring the names of
jurors to be kept a secret - and not
allow a grand or traverse -juror to
tell anyone after he has been served
with a summons, by requiring him
to sign an outli to that' effect. And
in torder to enforce tj^te secrecy
make it a misdemeanor tor anyone
convicted of violating the same.
