I however, if our ancient friend was making its jab at the “slier itl"s organ” merely to correct the errors appearing in the present ments, why did it not correct all the errors appearing in that pub lication f As it did not do this. The News will call attention to a few errors. The Herald and Advertiser corrected the error making the jury say: “We find the public highways generally in good con dition,” and the error in reference to misdemeanor cases, 'flic jury said the highways were found “generally ‘not’ in good condi tion,” and its refererenee was to | “liquor misdemeanor” cases and not to all misdemeanor cases the Herald and Advertiser did not make correction of several other errors.

OFFICE UP STAIRS IN THE WILCOKON BLDG OUR SORE CONTEMPORARY. An editorial in last week's Her aid and \dvertiscr, under the cap tiun “SherilV's Organ Makes a Dis coven." indicates that oar ancient contemporarx fretted itself into a \er\ ill natnred state of feeling on account of The News' allusion to its laughable performance in mud dling the grand jury presentments; and, as tlie facts in this case will furnish hilariU for a large section of country, and as The News is al ways willing to aid the populace in worthy efforts to make life en joyable and amusing, we’ll pro eeed to \ ontilute the matter some more. before entering into a discussion of the tacts in the case, however, The News will make a few prelim inary remarks. In the opening sentence of its editorial the Herald and Advertis er says that “Alter many months of weary watching and straining. The News has discovered two little errors” in its columns. The Herald and Advertiser is mistaken. The errors uumlx'red at suit a dozen. The Herald and Advertiser is mistaken again in assuming that we lm\e accepted the position of proof render on its staff. We don’t road it w ith enough absorb ing interest and cure to justify us in accepting any salary whatever as its expert detector of errors. In fact, we are rather careless in perusing the Herald and Adver tiser's pages, and hardly ever have on hand any air urate information in reference to the wads of wis dom and nuggets of news our old friend is delivering to the public tiou luiil been directed In that pa per by a number of citizens. These citizens discovered the discrepan cies in the Herald and Advertiser's publication of the presentments, compared w ith the presentments as published in The News. However, our careless reading of the Herald and Advertiser during several “months of weary watch ing” has “discovered” to us an assortment of errors, which, if we had been seeking opportunity lor “criticism," would have afforded ample opportunity for the same. The fact that The News has made no collection of the misinformation contained in the infallible Herald and Advertiser during the past few “weary" months, effectually answers its wail that it expects nothing hut criticism from this pa per. As the public has doubtless no ticed, the Herald and Advertiser delights to refer to The News as the “sheriff’s organ." This epi thet is all right if applied in the proper spirit; hut it is evident that our old friend is sore in spirit and distracted in mind because The News IS the “sheriff's organ." The News is not disposed to gloat over its contemporary’s discomfi ture in losing the official patron age; and our readers w ill bear w it- ness to the fact that we have inn er referred to this matter in connec tion with the Herald ami Adver tiser; but. if the Herald and Ad vertiser is happy only when caus ing itself pain by exposing this sore to the public gaze. The New s is not responsible for the tact. The Herald and Advertiser closes its little speech to The New s w ith this lame sentence: "The foregoing explanation is made merely for the information of our readers, hundreds of whom do not six 1 The News at all, and probably never will.” The News does not know how many of the Herald and Adver- by the Judge and Solicitor; and the errors it mentions were due to the fact that the jury afterwards revised the presentments. If this be true, will the Herald and Ad vertiser please explain how it is that its presentments do not tally with the “original draft" nor with tlie revised presentments? 11 ere are some points of differ cnee between the Herald and Ad vertiser’s presentments and the “original draft” and the revised presentments’: beginning with the lirst paragraph and continuing through the Herald and Advertis er's presentments, we lind the fol lowing discrepancies: The substitution of "make” for “submit;" of “maintaining” for “for maintenance;” the omission of “as superintendent;” the omis sion of “several districts" and sub stitution of “county;" the substi tution of “causes” for “cases;” the substitution of “appears” for “is put;” the substitution of “searching” for “dose;” the omis sion of “county;” the omission of “intoxicating.” Kvidently, the “weary" and “strained” proof- reader of the Herald and Advertiser made liber al application of the blue pencil to that “original draft.’’ Strange to by keep your money in circulation at home and help to build up local business enterprises. The giand jury of (iwinnett raised the tax returns of citizens of that comity to the amount of ♦200,000. Hundreds of citizens were caught in the raise for sums ranging from less than ♦lOO to above ♦2,000. The path of the lax dodger is evidently becoming more difficult and uncertain as the days go by.
