HOUSTON! ! CLIFTON.

Those who have shipped me
the past season will testify that
l have saved them money and
given general satisfaction, both
in classification and prices. By
referring to the official quotations
of the different markets during
three Of the best Cotton months
Of last winter it will be seen that
Houston quotations were equal
to, and frequently higher, than
New Orleans or Galveston.
Greater facilities this season for
storing and shipping Cotton, will
enable me to serve my customers
with still better results.

ED. TELLER:--In your issue of Feb.
~ you publish n letter from 1. N.

wherein the writer naakes scurrllous
attack on the "Flying Dutchman." AS
l am known by this sobr;quet, must

To start at the beginning: l. N. Hibbs

much mistaken abop0 that, as YOU
know very well; h,t sipce he wants to
pick q quarrel with me I will try to
oblige him. He states that my abuse
of court of justice was excusablc,
because it deprived me of my liberty
behind prison bars. Now, here he
shows either his utter ignorance Of the
case or his petty malice. / have had

second l was sued for ramming lie

than right and proper. Now, l argued
with the court that could serve out a

and asked him to commit me to- Jail
instead Of fining me. He hated to do
it and offered to remit half q hi.

$40; VIM Herdiman, one child,
$3.50; John Bottger, one child, Sl.2o;
whole amount, $3.50. Now the pub
lie can judge for itself what splendid
tax collector he would make. lie
would vary his poll taS according to
the size of the men, as he has don"
with the pupils. You will observe
that this discreet tax collector values
the three children of Thornhorst as
much as Griesers four Oh ldrsn, and
j. Kambitch's four children only forty
cents more; whereas r. Tierney's Eve
children bring S245 cents more than
J. Kambitch's four children. Then
again, Herdiman'. child is worth %
cents more than Bottser.. Til, is the
great scholar who objects to P.'s gram
mar. have an order, and can get
threatening letter from him for pnbli
cation to show his style and his spell
ing. when friend A. does not help him;
but to come back to business. ! ask
him how he accounted for the money.
He claimed Sl5 for wood, as he had
furnished five loads. Now listen: Mr..
Monroe, the school teacher, one of his
witnesses, testified in court that the
patrons of the district furnished thirty
days wood, which was half Of the
wood needed When I taxed h;m
about that he claimed that the pa rnns
did barely furnish two loads. Noy.
it stands to reason that they fnji had
some before this term, which would
leave about three-quarters of cord
for this term. Now, this wood lasted
according to the teacher, who is an
honorable gentleman, for half the
term, and I. n Hibbs claims for as
much wood SIS, which would make it
$50 cord, while it is really worth
about 81 The next item he claimed
VI 50 IS census marshal, when Sec
ton 81 expressly provides that this
item shall be paid through warrant
ON the county treasurer. Then he
claimed si75 or chalk, paint and bal
ance on stove, making it s20.75, leav-
ing balance of 1926 Of the tax and
81 which he received about two years
ago for the purpose of buying a water
bucket and the water bucket ns..c,.
was bought. He said all had. PROM
ised to pay him their pro rata I ask
ed for the balance Of 1885, and he
said he would pay it if he got it.
then told him that | considered his
pro rata bill unlawful, and if he could
collect it be was welcome to pay hin,
self out Of it. Now | leave, nv case
with the public. Let the people Judge
whether [. N. Hibbs has don. his du
ty, and whether the law intended q
rate bill to be levied for such purposes
| regret to have taken up so much
valuable space in your paper, and hope
this will be my first and last appear
anco before the public in print; but
should |. N. Hibhs force me to appca,

rather than simply what he knows.
The prosecuting officer is powerless
many times to prevent this, for the
reason that some may think if he in
terposes en- objection that he is seek
ing to suppress the facts rather than
guide the examination into its proper
channel. 1t is proper and important
that the jurors at all times ask such
questions as they think best in order
to fully and intelligen.ly act upon the
matter before them have made
thes. suggestions to all rather than
embarass you in the ils-hsrge of your
duties. and becsuse l believe that wise
and prudent action on the part of tie
jurors, and as to the character of the
evidence they listen to would free the
system of many objections which IRE
urged against it.
= The law makes it part of your
duty to inquire into the management
of public officers of the county and you
are entitled in the discharge Of these
important duties to free access at rca-
sonable times, to the prisons and to an
examination of the public records with

the duty of each grand juror to report

or believes has been committed within
the county and makes it your duty to
investigate them. The law makes it
your duty to keep secret whatever is
said or in what manner any Jurors
vote, and no juror can he questioned
as to these matters. 1t also requires
you to keep secret the fact that any
indictments have been found until the
party charged therein has been arrest
