This is part of the record of a half decade

admirable city with the natural advantagee
of having the finest climate, summer and
winter, in the world.
Griffin is the county sent of Spalding coun¬
ty, situated in west Middle Georgia, with a
healthy, fertile and rolling country, 1150 feet
above sea level. By the census ol 1800, it
will have at alow estimate between 6 000 and
7,000 people, and they are all of the right
sort—wide-awake, up to the timee, ready to
welcome strangers and anxious to secure de¬
sirable settlers, who will not be any less wel

GIUFFIN GEORGIA FRIDAV MORNING. NOVEMBER 22. I8M>.
DISCHARGED 1
MESSRS. ISON, CHAMPION AND
* JONES GO CLEAR.
The Decision of Commissioner MUD In
Full—A Fair Settlement of a
Vexatious Alftlr.
A final hearing of the case of the
United States versus O. H. Ison was
had yesterday morning and resulted
in the discharge of Mr. Ison, as well
as R. W. Champion and George
Jones, against whom similar cases
had been made. This is a result,
that will be hailed with satisfaction
by the whole community, every
member of which will be will¬
ing to bear testimony to Mr. Ison’s
honorable life and honesty and up¬
rightness of character. *
For our own part we do not hesi¬
tate to state the belief that the whole
matter has been one of unjust perse¬
cution, and not a fair prosecution,
on the part of the United States of¬
ficial and semi-official who brought
up the case. What the motives may
have been, outside of the blood mon¬
ey that rewards the spy and inform¬
er, or who were the prime instigators,
we cannot say; but if it had been the
simple prosecution of a duty why
should they have come from Atlanta
to Griffin when exactly similar cases
could be found in the former place,
as well as in many other large places
in the State and the United States ?
The whole question is a new one
in this section in its legal aspects,
and required and received careful in¬
vestigation at the hands of Mr. Ison’s
lawyers, who were Col. E. W. Ham¬
mond and Judge W. C. Beeks. The
best law libraries in the State capi¬
tal were ransacked for authorities,
and by their diligence they found a
decision which “covered the case
like a blanket,” and supported it by
cogent arguments. U. S. Commis¬
sioner Mills also made the ease a
matter of great study, and as the
question passed upon is one of inter¬
est and importance we give his decis¬
ion in full—delivered verbally but
afterwards kindly written out by
himself for the News and Sun at our
request: /
U. S. vs. O. II. Ison.—T he defend¬
ant is charged with violating §§5461
and 5462. R. 8.
§ 5461 is properly classified amoDg
the sections against counterfeiting.
To constitute counterfeiting, which
is the making or uttering of original a coin
bearing a resemblance to an
coin of this or semeforeign country,
there are two necessary be ingredients:
1st, That there must a resem¬
blance; 2nd, That the coin must be
made or uttered with intent to de¬
fraud some one. The coin used by
the defendant as shown by the evi¬
dence in this case bears no resem¬
blance whatever to any coin of this
or any other foreign country and
there has been no of suspicion attempt of evi¬
dence before me any to
defraud any one. It is therefore a
pleasure to me to decide, which I
cheerfully do, that Mr. iBon is not
guilty of counterfeiting and that this
evidence makes no foundation for
that or any similar charge. counterfeiting
But § 5462 is not a
section. It reads thus: “Every per¬
son not lawfully authorized who
makes, issues or passes any coin,
card, token or device in metal or its
compounds, which may be intended to
be used as money for any one- cent,
two cents, three cents, or five cents
be punished, etc.” Now in this case,
that is, in the construction of §5462,
it is not necessary that the coin shall
bear resemblance to a current coin
nor that there shall be any intention
to defraud.
The coin used by Mr. Ison is in the
language of the statute a device of
his own, a token to the person hold¬
ing it that he is entitled to its value
at his bar; it is also in the language
of the statute a coin of equal value
for to a the five testimony centspieceof is that currentmoney, it will
chase at defendant’s bar all that pur¬
a
five cents piece of lawful money will
purchase. It would, therefore, seem
that although five it says on in its trade, face that that
it is good is for violation cents of the spirit
its issue a
and plain meaning of the statute.
And left to myself and without au¬
thority to the contrary, I should be
inclined to hold and determine that
the statute has been violated in the
case at bar. Bnt spoken the highest the court sub¬
in this land has on
ject and its voice demands the respect
of all minor courts. True, it has not
construed §5462, for that section
seems never to have been construed
by any of the courts whose decisions
arejreported; of the United but States the SupremeJCourfc has construed
§3583. §§5462 and 3583 each relate
to the punishment for devices of mi-
adr monev—5462 to coin and 3583
to fractional currency. The case of
the U. S, vs. Van Husen in 6th Otto
charged a violation of §3588 in that
the defendant had issued in form c!
nation of 50 cents given to this pa¬
per promise its was purchasing only used as meas¬
urement of power in
goods and that the words in goods
are a negative of the idea of any in¬
tention to use the paper as money.
I can see no valid reason for a dif¬
ference of construction of the laws as
applicable to paper currency and
coin. If the Supreme court decision
is good law for paper, I can conceive
of no good reason why it should not
be respected as good law when ap¬
plied to coin. True, the language of
the sections is not the same, but the
manifest design of the one is to pre¬
vent a token or device for currency
and the purpose of the other is to
prevent tokens or devices for coin.
At any rate, if I must commit on er¬
ror in deciding a novel question of
law; I prefer to do so in fa vor of a de¬
fendant, who is proven to ha ve borne
as good a character in this commun¬
ity as has Mr. Isbn. It is my desire
in all cases, except where guilt is well
when established, brought to before discharge for prisoners trial, aiid
me
thus save them the expense and an¬
noyance of defending themselves in
distant courts,
The judgement of the court is that

William M. Glenn, it reporter, was
