THU PRESENTMENTS.
The grand jury, just adjourned, was
composed of good men. A glance at
their names bears out the assertion, as
does the presentments published in
this issue of the Skntinkl.
As to the city court recommended by
the grand jury, the public is aware
that this kind of a court has rapidly
taken the place of county courts. The
City court has enlarged jurisdiction
over the county court and will materi
ally lighten the superior court dockets,
From the city court cases are di
rectly appealed to the supreme court,
whereas, from the county court cases
are appealed to the superior court and
then taken to the supreme court.
There are many advantages the city
court has over the county court and
the grand jury, after mature deliber
ation, evidently so thought or else that
body would not have recommended the
court.
Since the grand jury has adjourned
there has been a slight discussion going
on ns to that part of the recommcnd
ation to eject the judge and solicitor
by a vote of the people As to that
point the Sentinel has nothing to say
at this time, except the grand jury said
“vote” and “vote” suits us.
As to the presenting of certain road
commissioners, the grand jury did
right under Judge Littlejohn’s charge
Judge Littlejohn charged that to t ract
the law, if the grand jury found roads
in had condition it was. their duty to
present the road commissioners. The
grand jury reported that they found
eertain roads in bad condition and,
following the instructions of Judge
Littlejohn, they presented the road
commissioners under whose control the
bad roads were. These road commis
sinners, we understand, have been cit
ed to show cause at the next term of
Dooly superior court, why they should
not pay a fine of fifty dollars.
Now, all this is well enough, but we
must take the part of the commission
ers to a certain extent. They have a
thankless job. As we understand get
no pay. They have a miserable road
system, it seems a hardship that they
should be made to suffer on account of
a miserable road law, and yet it is a
part of this law that they should suffer.
We think that the grand jury should
have gone futher and should have
pointed a committee to investigate the
road act of 1801 and other methods
working roads, and let said committee
report to the next grand jury. Even
Montgomery county, and several other
smaller counties than Dooly, have done
away with the old system and are im
proving their roads under a more
feetual road law.
But, it has been urged that if the
grand jury would present road com
missioned, and the judge would fine
road commissioners, that road eommis
sioners would do tlieirduty, that every
body else would be made by the road
commissioners to do their duty and
that the present road law would he
good enough for Dooly.
Our curiosity is not much aroused
on a proposition of this kind, but there
may be those who will watch to see if
this rule, that has not worked in the
past, will have the desired effect in the
present case.
The road commissioner’s job is a
thankless burden under the present
road law.
A man of our old friend Allen Cftn
(tier’s beauty well knows that he has
nothing to fear from anarchists, living
or dead.—Sparta' Ishmaelite,
The weekly papers of Georgia are ad
vocating a good-road movement, If
they will unite and persist in agitating
the subject much good inevitably will
result.—Abbeville Chronicle.
Albert F. Sherwood, for the past
twelve years auditor of Georgia South
ern and Florida railroad, died last
Monday at the city hospital in Macon.
On Saturday an operation had been
performed on him for appendicitis
Just why it is that the managers of
state fairs will pay out large sums of
money to the city offices and daily pa
pers for printing, and call upon the
country press to print columns of ad
vertising for nothing, has not yet been
satisfactorily explained.—Montezuma
Record.
Perhaps the Prohibitionists will find
another argument in the fact that
nearly all of the anarchists were found
in the back rooms of saloons.—Atlanta
Journal.
Sure the Journal would not deny
that this is a patent argument.—Way
cross Journal.
The farmers of Wilcox have stored
away hundreds of tons of hay during
the past two or three weeks, This is
good. From reports the crop in the
West, is almost a total failure, and the
New Era predicts that hay will sell for
$25 a ton in Georgia this fall and win
ter.—Rochelle New Era.
Mrs N. J. Drake died in a myste
rious way in Emanuel county. The
Free Will Baptist Church, of which
Mrs. Drake was a devoted member,had
assembled at the appointed place for
baptism. Her youngest child was bap
tised and when the baptism was over
she remarked that she had lived to see
her last chdd baptised, and was then
ready to die. As soon as the last word
was spoken she fell dead on the spot.
No Southern state gave Maj. McKin
ley its vote for President of the United
States;yet there was not a state of the
Nortli or the West that laid more lau
rels upon his bier and shed more sin
cere tears of sorrow at his untimely
death that did the Southern sisterhood
When Maj. McKinley was elected to
his high office the South accepted him
as the President of the whole country,
not of a section. He lived up to that
expectation, and the South honored
and respected him for it.—Savannah
Morning News.
Tattnall Journal: While in our of
fice last week Mr. William Tootle in
formed us that he had growing in his
field a stalk of cotton that will take the
blue ribbon over anything in the coun
ty. This stalk is eleven feet six inches
high, ten feet eight inches across, and
lias on it 225 bolls. Where is the farm
er, not in Tattnall county alone, but
in the state of Georgia who can boat
this? This specimen will be on exhibi
tion at the Journal office next week,
and if there is in Tattnall county a
farmer who can beat it , we will give
him ihe Journal free for six months,
