We learn from the Martinsburg
Statesman that Judge Faulkner, af
ter a full hearing, has decided that
Justices Of the Peace cannot bind
over persons charged With assault
and battery, to await the action o.
The grand jury; but that they must
enter judgmentin the case for or
against the prisoner. Under the
Acts OF the Legislature prior to
1881, the Justice merely held a
preliminary examination, and, il
there was probable cause, bound
the prisoners over, but now il
ms-tbat tho Justice has full
jurisdiction unless the assault and
battery was committed on a Sheriff
or other officer, or riotously, or
with attempt to commit a felony.
Whether the Legislature intended
TO give this extensive Jurisdiction
IN such cases may be questioned,
but it was done, and ii may be
time now to cry "halt.pAEr

when a man has been cured once Of

inflicted exert a beneficial influ

quite different in this regard, and
a glance about us will show that

BY the use Of intoxicants. This can
be remedied by the moderate use

AFTERNOON SESSION.

Report of Committee on order Of
business was received and adopted
On the recommendation of this
committee, q correspondence com.
mittee, consisting Of one from each
county was appointed, as follows;
Prof. Kidd, of Gilmer county; W,
I. Greer, Of Jackson county; j. G,

Committee on basis Of represen.
tation reported and a motion made
for ii adoption, 1t provided that
the delegates appointed by the
city of PaFk6sburg shouId'cdst the
vote Of the entire county Of Wood.
1t was at once apparent to the
convention that thiswas unfair and
that our Patkersburg neighbors
we're making q big drive to get
control Of the convention. But the
members probably having some
experience in Parkersburg's past
shrewdness, displayed in getting
control and running political con.
ventions TO the great disadvantage
of the small counties decided that
the delegates from Parkersburg
must be content to represent the
town for which and by which, ii
seemed generally understood, they
were appointed. The report was
rejected and was then Iecommitted.
AS Wood county at large had up.
pointed no delegates the committee
was instructed to amend their re.
port SO as to give Parkorsburg her
proper number Of votes in the con
veution. Mr., Cole of Petersburg
then stated that Parkdrsburg's
delegates would withdraw from the
convention and OF the same time
announced that he was authorized
TO say that Wood and Writ coun.
ties would build the road through
those two counties up to the RoanO
county line, providing the road
