On Friday Judge Norwood sentenced a
man to one year on the chain gang for
tresspassing on the lands of another. This
sentence will have the effect of calling the
attention of those who constantly and per-
slstently violate the law against tres
passing upon the lands of others to the
fact that there is such q law. and that
the courts will enforce it, There are people
in this county who care nothing for
fences or notices containing warnings
against trespassing. They go wherever
they please and some Of them add steal
ing 70 trespassing. The principal offenders
are negroes, but there are some white pco-
pie among them. To trespasslng they some,
times add malicious mischief They tear
down fences and break open gates. Judge
Norwood has done good work since he has
been upon the bench and his warning to
trespassers Will have a good effect
throughout the county and VIII he appre-
ciated BY property owners.

The Sherman Stntne.

Ignorance Of art and sectionalism ap-
pear to have played an important part in
the selection Of design for an equestrian
statue OF Gen. Sherman, which is to be
erected in the public grounds at WASH
ington. The Society OF the Army of the
Tennessee suggested the statue and con-
gress appropriated $4,000 for its erection.
the understanding being that the statue
and the base were to cost $4,000. To a com
mittee Of the society was entrusted the
task OF selecting a design. Not feeling
altogether qualified for the task the COM
mittee requested the National Sculpture
Society to appoint a commission to make
a selection. The request was acceded to,
and a commission composed of architects
and scuIptors called for designs. More
than two dozen were submitted, ana
from them four was selected that were
regarded as particularly good. On further
study of the designs the commission de-
cided to narrow the competition to two
artists, whose designs appeared to have
especial merit When this point was
reached the commission called in the
committee Of the Society of the Army of
the Tennessee, composed of western gen.
erals, and submitted to it the two de-
signs The committee was not particu-
larly pleased with them and called for
that of Carl Rohl-Smith of Chicago-a
design that had been rejected by the
commission, and which had been classed
as tenth in merit This, the committee
composed of western generals, ac-
cepted on the ground, as stated
in the reports, that Smith was
a good western man." and that
his models face looked more like
Gen. Sherman's. AS a matter of fact,
the other artists had not attempted
specially to make a likeness of Gen Sher-
man. They regarded that as a matter
to be attended to in making the large
model from which the bronze statue
would be cast Naturally the art COM
mission was very much disguised with
the outcome of its efforts to have an ar
tistic statue of Gen. Sherman. |
Senator Walcott brought the matter be-
fore the Senate last Tuesday on motion
to withhold the payment of the appropri-
alton until an investigation could be
had as to whether the government was
paying for a work of genuine art or only
a specimen of the work of a good west
ern man" The Senate decided that it
was satisfied with the judgment of the
committee of western generals. That was
another setback for the art commission.
The national sculpture society hasn't any
higher appreciation of the senate's abil-
ity to judge of art than it has of the
ability of the committee of western gem
erals in the same direction. And it isn't
strange that it hasn't.

Germans Against Free Silver.
From the Buffalo Courier Oem).

There is hardly an influential German
paper in the west which supported Cleve-
land in 1899 that has not now indicated
that II will refuse to indorse the Chicago
ticket in case the silver men should carry
the convention. The leading German
democratic and Independent papers in Chi
cage Cincinnati, Cleveland. st. Louis,
Louisville, Milwaukee, Detroit and other
places are pronounced advocates of the
gold standard, and in the contingency
mentioned they will be lost to the party
during this years campaign. Quite pa
thetic was the announcement of the
Michigan Volksblatt," of Detroit which
has supported the democratic cause more
than forty years, that it would be oblig-
the free silver men should carry the day
at Chicago.

A Washington special to a Philadelphia
paper gives some insight into the kind
OF man the President is. It says that
since Wednesday he has been at his desk
from O'Clock in the morning until long
after midnight each night, examining the
bills that have been sent to him by con-
gress to be signed. Pressure has been
brought to bear to get him to sign Ger
tain late bills that were rushed through,
but he has steadfastly refused to sign
any bill until he has given it the neces-
sary examination to prove that it is all
right and no job is hidden in it. Hearsay
evidence of the propriety of any bill will
not do for him; he must know what he
is putting his name to before he will touch
1t with a pen. The people like to honor
so conscientious a public servant.

Not Talking Tariff.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat Rep)

Very little talk is heard about the tar
iff, and probably it will receive during
the canvass far less attention than will
be given to silver Still the tariff is
question of considerable Importance, and
demands wise treatment. 1t is safe to say
that not one republican in ten wants
tariff constructed on the lines Of the Nc
Kinley act of 1890. 1t is equally safe to
say that the man whose name it bore
would oppose the re-enactment of that
law.
