BY malaria, how shall we escape The dread
infection? is the question which the deni-
zens of fever and ague districts ask them
selves. The answer comes from former
sufferers who for years have escaped the
visitations of the periodic scourge, through
the protecting influence of Hcstetter's
Stomach Bitters. When the necessity for
using preventive measures arises, use this
means of preye ltion at once 1t regu-
lates the liver, facilitates digestion and lib
crates impurities from the system, when
such exist, by promoting healthful action
of the bowels and kidneys. Act early. In
all regions where miasmatic vapor breed
disease, it is absolutely necessary to be pro-
vided with safeguard, and this is true,
though sojourn in such localities is des-
tined to be brief. No one can afford to
breathe malaria for a short time. The Bit
tiers is sovereign specific for rheumatism,
debility and nervousness. Keep it on
hand.

Concerning a County Court.

Having seen formerly the work
Ings of county court, we feel it
our duty to raise our voice in oppo-
sition to such a measure. We will
preface our remarks by saying that
such q courtwould be of no earthly
benefit except to the judge and 9TH
er o 'icers, and already too m my
places have been arranged only for
the good of certain individuals.
The objections to this court are
numerous and in this article we
will mention only some of the most
potent ones. This court is liable
to be convened at any time that
may suit the convenience and cap
rice of the officers. Farmers are
thus called from their labors at
unreasonable and iDconvenient
times and made jurymen for no
other purpose except that officers
may receive a little ready cash.
Under tie ruling of this court no
man can tell at what time he may
be called from home.
Felonies cannot be tried by it
and the officers would constantly
be looking up little misdemeanors
and oft times hunt up cases that
should &C unnoticed. for no other
purpose except to collect little
cost.
The few favoring this court
claim that it will keep the Jail
cleared and save expenses in the
way of BOARD. This is a grand
mistake. 1t is fact that there is
scarcely ever a person put into
our Jail for misdemeanor that
stays there for a single month.
Bond is given, the prisoner is lib
Grated and the Jail is cleared with
out the help and expense of a
county court.
Then, there is the $500 sala-
ry of the judge to be paid
by taxation. This in fact, togeth-
er with the other moneys received
by the officers, constitutes the sole
anxiety for the court. Already
we are suffering from the burden
OF taxation and are ready to cry
enough. Do not let us create IN
necessary Offices for the sole Dur
pose of feeding few hungry Of
f1ce hunters who wish to make q
living by tie public pap and not
by merritorious labor, and who, in
many instances, are not qualified
or worthy to fill any position of
honor or trust. Away with the
idea of other Offices, especially as
unnecessary one a county court
for Terrell.
