SENTENCED TO JAIL.
That's How Defaulting Road Hands Are
Dealt With.

That's How Defaulting Road Hands Are
Dealt With.
A young man of the Twelfth district
was staring sentence of 20 days in Jail
or fine of 50 and cost in the face last
Wednesday. He had refused to work
the road because of personal dislike
for the overseer. The commissioners
tried him, and sentenced him as stated
above. The young man did not seem
disposed to pay either of the penalties at
first and proposed to fight it out in
the courts, but after consulting two or
three lawyers he concluded to pay the
fine.
On the same day negro who had
been sent to Jail from the same district
for the same offense was released under
habeas corpus proceedings heard before
Ordinary Roberts The negro had, on
several occasions, paid no attention to
the summons of the road overseer, and
when the commissioners OF the district
wanted to deal with him for failure to dis
charge this duty of citizenship he treat
ed them with equal contempt by making
himself scarce in that vicinity. The
commissioners, however, were deter
mined that he should be pun
ished, and they met and ordered
the derelict road hand to Jail without ev-
er having him before them. He was fl
nally apprehended by an officer of the
law and placed in durance vile without
further ceremony, where he languished
until released by Judge Roberts.

Cotton Packed In What Is Known as Sugar
Bag Cloth Declared Merchantable.
The National Cordage Trusts corner

the price of that article, as far as the far
mers are concerned.
There have been many letters received
by the New York Cotton Exchange both
for and against the use of sugar bag
cloth for cotton. The boald of mana
gers, after thorough discussion of the
situation, passed tho following resolu-
tions:
"Resolved, That many inquiries having
been received by the New York Cotton
Exchange as to whether or not the use
of what is known as sugar bag cloth IN
covering cotton IS contrary to the rules
of the Exchange, the secretary is instruct
ed to advise the southern exchanges and
others known to be interested in this
matter of the fact that cotton covered
by such bagging constitutes good de-
livery under the rules of this exchange"
This is heavy blow to trust people,
and is big thing for the cotton men.

WHAT THEY PAY.
The ColOred Citizens Contribute But Little

The ColOred Citizens Contribute But Little
to the Support of the City Schools.
State School Commissioner Bradwell
wrote to Superintendent Yeomans, of
the city schools, few days ago, asking
how much taxes the negroes of Dawson
paid for educational purposes the past
school year, and how the city school
fund was appOrtloned.
superintendent YeOmans has made an
investigation of the matter, and the re
suit shows that the colored people con-
tribute scarcely anything to the support
of the schools.
Last year the city schools cost $500.
OF this amount 81, 800 was derived from
the state fund, and of the other $4,000
the whites paid $3,925, and the negroes
only S75. During the year ali of 5000 was
expended on the negro schools, over
$500 more than they paid into the fund

TERRELL'S TAX RETURNS.
FIGURES THAT WILL IN TEREST THE
TAXPAYERS.
There Is Small Decrease in the Total
Value of Property, But Healthy
Condition of Affairs in the
County Is Shown.

4SCOANS~SN
Value of Property, But a Healthy
Condition of Affairs in the
County Is Shown.
The exhibit made from the property
returns this year, as shown in Tax Re-
ceiver Cannon's digest, is somewhat less
than that of last year. However, very
healthy condition of affairs is shown
which, upon the whole, is quite satisfac-
tory
The total value of property returned
for taxation is $2,458, ISL, decrease OF
$48,664.
The total number of polls in the coun-
Ty is 1889, of which l, ia are white and
1926 are colored. This is an increase of
45 in the white polls and decrease of
112 in the colored.
The sum to be derived from profess
sional tax this year is $500.
The land acreage returned is POI, $50,
valued at S928,84O. The decrease in the
valuation of this from the returns of
1898 is $50, $50, which is considered very
small under all the existing circum-
stances. This, it will be understood, is
farm lands in the country only, and in-
cludes no city property whatever.
The total valuation of city realty is
S436, 287, decrease of only S16,773 from
last year.
The returns show no change in the
banking interests. The money, notes
and accounts returned are valued at
$477,961, an increase over last year OF
$190,150.
The increase in the value of merchan-
disc as returned is $3.50, while the de-
crease in the value of stocks and bonds
is $751; 35.
The manufacturing interests show a
decrease of &c. 95.
According to the digest, household and
kitchen furniture in the county is valued
at $135, 939, a decrease Of S748, while the
aggregate value of diamonds, watches,
silverware, etc., is $10,709, and increase
OF 1929 only.
Live stock. SUCH as mules, horses,
cows hogs, etc., is put down at vaIua-
ton of S23C, $50, which is a decrease OF
$2,891. Plantation supplies are valued
at 500 ,498, while the amount of cotton
and other farm products on hand and for
sale Mach 1st is assessed at $13,279. An
increase of So, 400 is found in this latter
item.
The value of property returned and
not herein specified is $39,376, which is
a decrease of $4,252.
The exhibit, upon the whole, is quite
satisfactory, as owing to the general de-
preston and shrinkage of values of all
kinds a much larger decrease might have
been expected AS it is the decrease is
small, and shows that Terrell is doing
equally as we'll as other counties, in many
of which the decrease is considerably
greater than here.
