The grand jury experts have made a
partial report of the result Of their in
yestigation into affairs of county Off
Gals. AS one result of this report fif-
teen justices of the peace in this county
will today be given some informa-
ton of a character that will startle them
out of their boots and make them realize
how near a dangerous precipice they
have been treading. The experts flnd
that the justices have been overcharg-
ing the county for fees. In some instan-
ces these overcharges amount to con-
siderable sums and in others only trili-
ing ones, but the aggregate counts up
to a formidable total
The justices are not going to be pros
ecuted for stealing, for their acts are 10
be charged to ignorance, carelessnese or
misunderstanding of the law
To Deputy District Attorney Holton
has been assigned the duty of bringing
this little matter officially before the
attention of the justices whose books
have disclosed the discrepancies. The
district attorney will today dispatch
letters to the justices calling attention
to their shortcomings and telling them
that the amounts they are short as
shown by the experts report will be
deducted from their next months allow
ance. The district attorney will not ask
If this arrangement will be satisfactory
to the delinquent justices but simply
and sharply say 1t will be done unless
they settle up previous to that time.
And they are getting off easy.
The overcharges against the county
have been in various ways, and all lie
gal, but one practice der dnced by the
experts is defended by the district at
torney's office. The experts think that
in cases where defendants are dis
charged no fees should be charged
against the county, but the district at
torney considers a case case whether
its termination is conviction or dismis-
sal. One common practice that is con-
ttemnel by the district attorney, is the
charging of full fees for each defendant
in a case where there are two or more
defendants.
Other county officials may expect soon
to hear some sharp reminders of remiss-
ness though no criminal prosecutions are
promised. The grand jury expects that
it will complete their labors before Feb
ruary 1st, so the suspense will last only
a short time longer.

many should be denied coffee because it

them in one way and another; still this

finds it hurts him he is generally sensi-

BROAD STREET CHURCH DEBT.
Pastor Jones Raises 1924 in So Days.
Thanksgiving Service.


The debt on Broad Street church
has been paid off. Pastor Jones de-
serves the praise, not only of the
church, but of the entire
denomination for his efforts in
clearing the church of this debt and
turning it over to his successor in a
condition that the work of the church
may be done more successfully than
heretofore.
In a letter to the Biblical Recorder,
Mr.. Jones says:
"Some weeks ago 1 felt directed by
the Lord to be used in his hands to
pay the debt of 1924 which has been
upon Broad Street church since April
18th, 1898. / went to God in prayer
about the matter, and told him l
wanted to be used, and asked him to
enable me to pay the last dollar OF
l am happy. My prayer has been an
swered, and instead OF sixty days, He
made it just f1fty-eight. 1 know that
God answers prayer. With God on
our side, nothing is too hard for US;
but without Him we can do nothing.
/ have never been disappointed in
single instance when / have commit
ted all to Him"
Mr.. Jones refers especially to the
valuable assistance rendered by Mr..
Fred N. Day in raising the money.
He also expresses his heartfelt appre-
citation to all those who have so kind
ly helped him by their kind words and
liberal contributions.
The pastor has arranged for a
special thanksgiving service to be
held at the church next Sunday.

THE TOBACCO MARKET.
he Sales Were Unusually Light Last
Week-Revenue Receipts.

he Sales Were Unusually Light Last
Week-Revenue Receipts
This week closes with the smallest
business in tobacco sales during last
tobacco year.
This is due to the fact that during
the month of March, when farmers
should have been preparing their
lands for corn and tobacco, cOntinu-
Gus rains prevented them from doing
so and they took advantage of the
wet season to market their tobacco,
and as consequence, receipts of to-
bacco during March exceeded that of
any March within the history Of the
market, and now that the bulk Of the
crop has been sold, and the weather
being favorable, farmers are busy
with their crops and tobacco sales are
short.
Just how much Of the weed is yet
to be marketed, is all speculative and
estimates are varied according to the
side of the fence tobacco men are
standing. Farmers say it is nearly
exhausted, tobacco men say from one
fourth to third is yet to come.
Prices last week were looking up
on all grades, and tobacco men say
they look cor good prices during the
remainder of the tobacco year.
News comes from all parts of the
tobacco growing sections that plants
are looking splendid and while there
will probably be no considerable in
crease in acreage, an average crop will
be planted.

The Conventions First Day-Win-
ston-Salem Delegates.
The first meeting OF the convention
of the State Christian Endeavor Un,
ion was held in the Sunday school
room of the Second Presbyterian
church, in Charlotte, at 3 o'clock Fris
day afternoon, and was in the ma
ture Of social conference, the dele
gates registering their names and be-
coming acquainted with each other
and with the local EndeavOrers. AT
terwards the convention assembled in
the auditorium of the church, and
there had formal Introduction meet
ing, as is the custom in such conven-
tions, each delegate rising and stating
his or her name, aud residence. The
meeting closed with a number of SEN
tepce prayers for the blessing OF the
convention. At the evening session
Editor Dowd, of the Charlotte News
delivered the address OF welcome.
President A. d. Th8ler made the
response in behalf of the delegates, in
the name Of the State Union. They
had come together to sit at the feet Of
the Master. They expected bounti-
ful blessing, and prayed that they
might be ready to receive it. They
had heard of Lne recent time Of Chris
tian refreshing, and desired the re-
suits OF that revival to come iutO the
convention.
