‘ A most touching speech was
made by Hon. E. D. Smith, of
South Carolina. He viewed the
‘Southgrn farmer going around
with a sample of cotton, asking
some one to price it and take i.
His speech will be published in
pamphlet form and sent all over

Each delegate was requested
to urge his friends and the pub
lic in” general to be loyal to the
Association, which is already a
success, that it may grow and
live in the hearts of the people of

over the remains of the bear

The ‘“‘Preacher Grand Jury.”
Texas Minister Made Foreman
of Grand Jury for First
Time in That State. 3
Houston, Texas, Jannuary, 17
—For the firsttime ia the
history of a T'exas city a Baptist
preacher is foreman of a grand
jury. He is Rev. Benjamin
F. Riley, of the First Baptist
Church, a temperance cvangelist
and pronounced reformer. |
The “preacher grand jury,” as;
it is termed, has cut a wide
‘swath., Rev. Riley and associatés
made the rounds of saloons
last Sunday morning before
services, mingling with crowds
in each and taking names of all
who were getting their morning
toddies. These names arc to
appear in the Sunday violation
cases.
One of the first acts of the
jury was to piut two unecwspaper
reporters in jail for failing to
answer questions before it.
They were held in coatempt.

after them, .
Vice of every character is to bf
bottled. Gamblers have fledt’
city, and of the hundreds of
gambling rooms not one is now
operated. Poolrooms where bets:
are posted on horse races are to
be shut up. -
The jury is going at the
root of evil, as the foreman
terms it, by prosecuting public
officials who have failed to enforce
the law. The lid is to be pul
on tight in Houston for the
first time.
