Brother Harris, of the Observer,
Hillsboro. has established a scale Of
magisterial charges for "cussin'."-
There was a "shindy" at a darkies
dance in Hlllsboro last week and the
arrested "culfud" person was brought
before Harris, in his capacity as
Mayor, for trial. One witness swore
to the "cuss words"--another swore
he didn't hear them. Brother Har.
ris said to the culprit: The wit
ness heard you cuss one dollars
worth-if the other witness had heard
you, the fine would be greater" The
moral Of which is, unless your peck.
et.book is fat, don't "cuss" in the
presence Of more persons than posi-.
BILE within the town limits Of Hills

The Philadelphia Times well says
"The country newspaper is the most
useful of all the agencies which stamp
the impress Of progress upon villages
and inland cities. Without the aid
of local newspapers towns are, as q
rule, thriftless and dead. 1t is com
mon for small great men to speak with
contempt of the local newspapers, but
the village newspapers makes more
great men out ofles, material--mor'
bricks without straw--than any Other
factor in politics, and ii Is the ons
ladder on which men climb to lOcaI
distinction as the beginning Of wider
fame. The advent Of the local news
paper has always dated the increased
Thrift of the community. The loca
newspaper is the life Of the locality
and the measure Of It's support, as
rule tho advancement Of the people.
