A BRIEF Synopsis
OF Judge Graves First Charge 10 the
Grand Jury

OF Judge Graves First Charge to the
Grand Jury
Judge Graves first charge to the
Grand Jury of Bates county was
clear. concise and TO the point. He
started with the proposition that
much time was uselesely squandered
in lengthy charges TO Grand Juries
aud advised them to consult the
prosecuting attorney, who is their
legal adviser on all questions of law.
He confined his instructions to gen
eral matters and such others as the
statute specifically requires.
He directed attention to Sec. IL,
Art XIV of the Constitution which
requires the Grand Jury at least
once a year, to investigate the Off
cial acts of all officers having charge
of public funds, aad make a report
to the court. He gave a lengthy
charge on the liquor laws and their
violations defining the licensed sa
laloan keeper, druggist and merchant
aud the one who sells without a
license ITO convict a dram shop
keeper the state has to prove not
only the unlawful sale bat in addi
ton, the fact of dram shop license.
The same is true Of druggists and
pharmacists, so that before indicting
you should be certain that each link
of the required testimony is at hand.
He charged thsm to visit the Jail,
examine into the condition and in
quire into the treatment of the pris
onsrs He directed attention to the
law regulating County Treasurers
and county warrants. land if you
have reason to believe that the law
is in anyway being violated you
should investigate
He instructed them upon the law
governing the secrecy to be obssrv-
ed by that body and informed them
that they were not to disclose any
testimony taken except as witness
before the circuit court
He pointed out the difference be
tween felonies and misdemeano rs.
A felony is any crime the punish
ment for which is the death penalty
or Imprisonment in the penitentiary
A misdemeauo is crime, the pun
ishment of which is imprisonment in
the county jail or fine Felonies
Can only be prosecuted by idictment
prepared by Grand Jury, but mis-
demeanors may be prosecuted by
Information filed by the prosecuting |
attorney. He pointed out the seri |
Gus question of criminal costs con |
fronting the people and suggested |
that the jury confine it's attention to
the felony cases, thereby assisting
in reducing the cost.
In feet, 1t was very strong charge
and much commented upon by those
who heard it,

Nearly everybody you meet will re-
gard it as a kind of insult to be asked
if they have weak lungs. All seem to
have a solid faith in the soundness of
their W breathing machine. In cases
of trouble they will admit there is a
heavy cold" "a touch OF bronchitis,
or even "a spell of asthma but as to
weak or unsound lungs, never, NEVER.
Even the poor consumptive, who scarce
ly speaks without coughing, whose
checks are wasted, hollow and bear the
hectic flush of doom, will assure you
with glistening eyes that his cold is on
the mend and he will be all right when
the weather changes.
1t is simply terrible to think how far
we may be guilty by our indifference to
the lung troubles of those near and dear
to us. 1t is also a sad thought that we
may hug a deiusion as to our own health
that we only get rid of when life itself
must pay the forfeit.
Nobody can afford to think lightly
of lung troubles. Nobody can afford to
be mistaken about their possible dan
gers. Nobody can afford to neglect
them, or ''let them wear out, or get
better in the spring." or any other tom
foo1ery that leads only to wreck and
ruin. Lung troubles DOM move back
ward. Weak lungs don't grow strong
by themselvcs-you must heal them
and strengthen them, and rid them OF
the very earliest germs of disease, or
| you are simply committing a form OF
| suicide. Either you must cure you
