I SPALDING SUPERIOR COURT
I Judge Reagan Delivers a Brrom
I Charge to trie Grand Jury.
I he epccbil t rm of Spalding m;.i ri
| or court convened thin rooming at !
I o'clock, Jufige E J. Reagan perilling
; The grand jury organized by elect'
ing Capt II II Bass as foremau, am
alter the oath had been adniinieterec
by Solicitor General Blood worth, J udgt
Reagan delivered his charge.
Judge Reagan stated that the flp< cis
term of court had been called for the
purpose of investigating certain viola
tions of the law in this section, which
had been called to bis attention.
He was informed that lawlessness,
to a certain extent, prevailed in this
count}’, and a baud of men were in
timidating labor and threatening em
ployers Not only that, some bad re
sorted to acts of violence by taking
parties from theii homes and whipping
them without excuse.
It was the paramcun. duty of all
governments to protect their citizins
in their lives or propeity, while plying
their trade, or engaging in any legiti
mate business. Without that protec
tion men may be deprived of means
of making a living, and result in ths
prostration of all business.
The laws of Georgia offered ample
protection to every citizen, penalties
were prescribed for t ach offense, and
when enforced the law was a protec
tion to all.
Every citizen who is law abiding
and is in any legitimate business has a
right to engage in it without interfer
ence, whether he be a millionaire in
bis mansion or the humblest citizen
in his hovel. It was the duty of every
law abiding citizen to see that all law
lessness is suppressed, and be charged
the jury to investigate the matter
thoroughly.
Ample provision is made for the
punishment of such lawless acts, and
if the guilty parties are punished it
will have a salutary effect upon the
community.
There is no crime more demoraliz
ing or one which will work more harm
than for a band to organize to prevent
any one from engaging in his avoca
tion or from employing laborers to
carry on bis business. It was the duty
of the grand jury to indict such per
sons, if they could secure evidence
sufficient to warrant their doing so.
The court bad been informed that
mobs had gathered and taken parties
from their homes and whipped them
The act was so repulsive as to make it
unnecessary to say anything about
enforcing this law.
No matter how low or humble a
citizen may be, the law protects him
in the sanctity of hi* home and if
persons had been taken therefrom, as
he had been informed, it was the duty
of the grand jury to investigate the
matter thoroughly.
The judge also charged the jury in
reference to furnishing liquor to
minors. It is unlawful to give, sell or
furnish whiskey to minors in any way,
and if they learn of any one having
violated this law it would be their duty
to indict the offenders
Ihe charge of Judge Reagan was a
very strong one, and when he closed
the jury went to their room and began
an investigation into the lawlessness
that has reigned in this section
recently.

ORCHARD HILL NOTES.
Orchard Hill, May 30.—Am sorry to
note that this scribe has been sick for sev
eral days.
Prof. J. 11. Morris, ot Owl Hollow, was
here this morning, wearing a 13xlh|
smile. Anyway, it was an unusual look
that accompanied him.
Pitts’ Carmina'ive is pleasant to the
taste, acts promptly, and never fails to
give satisfaction. It carries children over
the critical time of teething, and is the
friend ot anxious mothers and puny chil
dren. A few doses will demonstrate its
value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens, Ga., writes:
’I consider it the best medicine I have ev
er used in my family. It does all you
C for it, and even more.”

When Nature
Needs assistance it may be best to render
it promptly, but one should remember to
use even the most perfect remedies only
I when needed. The best and most simple
1 and gentle remedy is the Syrup of Figs,
• manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
i Co.
Raise More Live Stock-
No one, the Southern farmer least
of all, will dispute the statement that
live stock has had more iodo with the
general improvement of Southern
farms than any other thing, says an
exchange. The Southern farmer,
having learned his bard lesson, is now
headed the right way. It is admitted
that the care of live stock requires the
constant attention of some one, and
that one is pretty closely lied to the
faim. This plan is not in harmony
with the general inclination to make
the farm produce crops that will not
require constant career at least super
vision. What would be thought of a
merchant who kept on his shelves
goods suitable for only one or two
seasons of the year? And yet many
farmers are working on this same line.
The general disinclination to keep
stock is due partly to the fact that
good returns are received from grains,
fruits, hay and the like, and to some
extent because stock raising is not
generally understood. Stock keeping
means steady and fair returns for the
outlay, but more than ail, it means
the maintenance of soil fertility .which
cannot be had in any other way so
easily and cheaply. It i* not meant
to imply that the use of commercial
fertilizers may be done away with en
tirely, but their cost will be materially
lessoned.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound nr imperfect 1, ariug. and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
tint cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

Stories are often told of the way the
class of journalists called "liners" regard
every event from the standpoint of their
own special work. A writer in The Corn
hill says that one of them coming home
one night discovered a man insensible at
his threshold, and, with great presence of
mind, without- losing a moment, ho called
out to his wife, ‘'Quick, my dear; bring
j a light; here’s a paragraph lying on the
doorsteps!"
As another‘‘liner” was walking along
the quays of Dublin a man rushed past
him and jumped over the wall into the
Liffey. The journalist immediately looked
, at his watch. "How provoking!” he ex
claimed. It s 6 o’clock, and I’m too late
for the last edition of The Evening Mail,"
and, addressing the suicide struggling in
> the water, he added, ‘‘All right, my boy;
I’ll give you a good paragraph in the
, morning papers. ”

! proved and able to do her own work.”
