WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Hickory Press.)

IL a certain prominent Judge in this
State delivers any more lectures to juries
ON the subject of the denl-mondes or
files per-dues who people our principal
cities we propose to call him down by
gently suggesting that he should make
his actions square with his words. The
associations of the judge i'm question are
not such as to permit him to pose as a
guardian of the public morality and for
that reason we believe that should these
lines catch his eye he viii hesitate long
time before he attempts TO play that role
again. We are ia possession of the facts
in the case and we shall speak i'm this mat
ter without fear or favor in case we are
provoked by amy such further display of
arrant hypocrisy.
