JUDGE BAKER of the New Orleans
criminal court has decided that
"twelve men with quart of whisky,
a deck Of cards and a handful of
beans, who play poker from twelve
o'clock at night to four o'clock in the
morning, and holding mans life in
their hands, could not give the pris-
oner fair trial" This was his de-
cision in the case of George Dunn,
tried for murder, and for whom plea
for new trial was entered because
the jury played poker for four hours
while locked up to return verdict.
The verdict, manslaughter, was over
ruled and new trial granted.

THE Arkansas Pass Beacon is quite
jubilant, and justly so, over the i'm
prOvements going on at ROckport and
the brighter outlook for that little sea-
port. Concerning the new hotel and
some other things looking toward
ROckport as a summer resort the
Beacon says:
"The hotel is leased to J. NJ. Hama
ford q Sons of Detroit, Mich, and
those gentlemen will be here in a
week or ten days. The furniture has
been ordered and is expected to be
here about the same time. The Arans-
as. and the Shell Hotel will have
ample accommodations for many hun
dreds of visitors, and supplemented
as they are by several smaller hotels
and cottages we can now safely say,
that we can take care of all corners, in
first class style.
Gov. Gibbs has a promise from Mr..
Lott, that the schedule will shortly
be changed from the present uncivii-
lied hours; and that trains will arrive
at p. m. and leave at a. m.
The Arkansas will be thrown open to
visitors not later, than the 10th of
May, which event will be ushered in
by a grand ball and entertainment
and, no doubt will be an occasion
long to be remembered in the history
of Rockport, the future great mari
time city of the gulf COAST

In q few days he came in and con-
Tossed that the goods were all gone,
and that he could have sold three
times more. In this case there was
no difficulty because the articles
were very, very cheap.
Some day some man will come to
Salem and seeing the way the mer-
chants conduct their business here
without advertising, will start a
boom that will rather surprise them.
Were one man to begin advertising
in the right way he would, as the
saying is, take the cake. But they
all seem combined to carry on busi-
ness without competition. Several
men say they are doing more now
than they want to do. Surely, this
is prosperous place foF such bust
ness.

The first waves of immigration
from the east and south have already
been felt. The railroads are head
ing this way with the utmost haste,
far-seeing capitalists foreseeing that
for the future the Puget Sound
country is the land of promise. The
east has had its day, the great
Mississippi valley already sees its
glory perceptibly fading; it is the
Pacific northwest upon which the
sun of prosperity is to shine for the
future. Certain parts of this region
are already feeling the thrill of
speculative demand, and other parts
are enjoying a steady movement up
ward in values. The whole logic
of the economic situation of the
country to-day points to a prosper
Gus future. Tacoma News.

tits the greatest delusion In the
world for boy to get the idea that
he is Of no consequence. and that the
character of it will not be noticed.
A manly, truthful boy will shine like
a star In any community. A boy
may possess as much of noble char.
acter rs a man. He may so speak
and live the truth that there shall he
no discount on his word. And there
are such noble Christian boys; and
wider and deeper than they are apt
to think is their influence. They are
tho king boys among their fellows,
having an immense influence for good,
and respected because of the simple
fact of living the truth.
Dear boys, do be truthful. Keep
your word rs absolutely sacred.
Keep your appointments at the
house of God. BE known for your
fidelity to the interests of the church
and Sunday school Be true in
every friendship. Help others to be
and do good Chila's Paper.

A State Exchange for the Farm.
ers' Alliance in Georgia.

The Farmers Alliance has swept
everything before it in this State,
and virtually dictates the movements
OF the politicians. The county rer.
chants have been pushed to the wall
in many instances, and county ware
houses have been established by the
Alliance men. The work for State
Exchange has been completed. The
officers OF the State Exchange in ses.
sion here to-day are: Felix Corput,
president; L, S. Ledbelter, secretary
R. A Kelly, treasurer;
President Corput. speaking of the
scope. purposes and membership of
the body, said "The purposes of the
Exchange are to condnct general
mercantile business. to act as agent
for the purchase and sale of all kinds
of farm and orchard products and
general forwarding agents for all
kinds Of commodities. To erect,
manage and operate ware houses,
stock yards, grain elevators, packing
establishments; to manufacture GU.
ano or other fertilizers, and all such
other enterprises rs may he found
necessary or advisable to their profit
and betterment. That covers about
ali the ground on which the farms
ers' want protection. The EX.
change will own property and be a
person in law and will have the right
to issue and float debenture or other
bonds and to do printing and pub.
fishing business.
"As to the capital, we shall have a
capital stock of $l,O00,000, $780,.
900 Of which has been subscribed,
and $4,000, or 25 per cent, will be
called in to begin operations with.
We have $4,000 members and 1GO
Sub-Alliances in Georgia. by trans
acting their business through the
Exchange the farmers can buy the
neccssaries of lie cheaper, and by
being helped by the Exchange can
hold their Gotten until prices are fore.

but the honest merchant need not
fear. 1t will cut down the cent per

sell on six months. time and come
down with their mortgages and liens
at the first picking of the cotton in
the fall. All We purpose doing is to
offer goods at reasonable rates. If
the farmers can buy them cheaper
anywhere else. or if they want to buy
them anywhere else, they can do so.
The plan is one for protection solely.
These cormorants, who have made
the farmers squirm under their beaks
for years, ought not complain if their
prey escapes them and defends itself.

The Negro Exodus from North
Carolina.

The negro exodus fever is taking
on q serious aspect in this section
and creating a sensation. The whole
eastern portion of the state threatens
to be depopulated of negro laborers,
and the situation is growing alarm
ing for the farmers. Large numbers
are leaving daily, and the numbe:
transported westward during the
past month will run up into thous
ands.
The emigrsnts row go to the cot
ton plantations of Mississippi, Lou
isiana and Arkansas. and not to the
turpentinc forests of Georgia, Flori
da and South Carolina, as they did
in January.
The railroad authorities to-day
state that during February the Rich
mond and Danville railroad transpor
ted about 1000 negroes to the West
The Atlantic Coast Line transported
about 1000. These &ll went to the
cotton plantations OF the above
named states.
The present month promises tc
double or treble the number of emi
grants which left over these roads
during February. The cmi grants
consist Of men, women and Gull
dren. Tt is estimated that 10000
negroes have lett the State during
the past year.
