jury is going outside its duties and de-
termining the guilt or innocence of ac-
cused persons itself. It is clearly
usurping the duties ofthe petit jury and
the court. There is affecting about tho
court house that grand jury should get

DOWN WITH FOOTBALL.
Concord Times.l

A young man was killed in Atlanta
last Saturday while engaged in a game
of football. His skull was fractured in
the brutal and disgusting contest, and
be never regained consciousness. The
Atlanta papers are full of letters from
prominent people denouncing the game
and calling on the legislature, which is
now III session, to enact law prohibit
ing football in Georgia. This will I'M
doubtedly be done. 1t ought to be done
everywhere. This game is cruel, brutal,
barbarous, and it siamazing that civil
lied people will endorse and uphold it.
Just such accidents as the above are
likely to occur in every game, and the
wonder IS that they do not happen more
frequently.

A few days ago we quoted the Nor

unrestricted coinage of silver. in very
short time the yellow metal would de-
cline to lower figure than that at
which silver is now quoted. That argu-

Ii gold were demonetized the only
demand for it would soon be limited tn
its use in the arts and manufactures:
and it is estimated that demand is less
than one-half Of the annual production of
that metal. There thus heing hnt little
demand for the enormous amount of
gold in the Golfers OF the civilized

fall to n lower figure than that to which
