September 9, 1887.
T. J. Jason, of Lithonia, was killed
by ft freight train on the Georgia
Railroad on Sunday morning last.
The very latest from the New York
Herald: “If the Southerners do not
check the frequency of their patriotic
remarks about the union and the flag
they will drive the Republican lead- |
«rs frantic.”
The Baker County, Fla., Sentinel
comes forward with the following
which will apply with equal force to
the Columbia Sentinel: “The Senti-'
nel has received some extravagant ,
• compliments during the last few
■weeks, but we don’t see much ‘spon
dulicks' in them.”
DUB SLATE BOCZ PHILOSOPHER
EniToiis Sentinel:
September Court convenes now in
a short while. The Grand July is a :
very important part of the court.— |
Trial by jury is a cherished right of
the people and no criminal case can
be brought before a jury for trial
without a true bill found by the
Grand Jury. “True bills must bo en
dorsed on a bill of indictment, when
a Grand Jury are of opinion that
there is suflicient cause for putting
the accused on trial.” No wonder,
that the Grand Jury are supposed to j
be upright, intelligent men, who will
do their duty and true presentments
make, without fear, favor or affec
tion, reward or the hope thereof, and
never lose sight of the liberty of the I
citizen on one hand and the protec
tion of society on the other The
•Grand Jury have privileges, granted
to no other citizen, among them, the :
public roads, bridges, etc., is an im
portant part of their work, nt each
term of the court Written, as well
«s unwritten law, contemplates safe
roads and bridges over which reason
able time can be made and reasonable
loads carried. A few years ago the
public roads of the county were al-j
moat impassable. The Grand Jury '
presented the road commissioners of
the county. Several of them were
fined and they were made to feel that
being appointed a road commissioner
meant something. The consequence
was, that in one short year the public
Toads of the county were improved at
least one hundred |er cent. Persons
subject to road duty, at most, did not
work longer than six or eight days,
when they could have been compell
ed to work fifteen days or longer in
cases of emergency Fifteen days
work, well directed by the entire
road force of the county, would mi-1
prove the public highway two hun
dred per cent, ami those subject to
road duty are willing to do the work.
Yet it seems difficult K> find those i
who are ready and willing to guide i
and direct Ah before stated, several
years ago the public highways of the
county were improved one hundred
per cent and the road hands worked
from six to eight days. This vear
they have fallen back into the'old
furrow of one or two days and in
aome cases where portions of road
have been let out to private parties
they have not been worked at all. Is
there anything the Grand Jury could
do for the public good that would be
more thankfully received and kindlv
rembered by the people of the coun
ty than to see that the public loads
and bridges are first-class‘? Then
the tax payer whether ho paid on
propertv a tax ot one dollar or one
hundred, would feel that if he receiv
ed no other good for his money, he
nt least in common with his rich
neighbor, had public roads, over
which he could make reasonable
time, carry reasonable loads without
breaking his wagon, balking his team
and possibly, breaking his neck.
