Judge D. w. Sloan charged the
grand jury and called attention to
the change which had been made in
the method of selection. He said it
was not the right, as some supposed,
to serve on the jury, but it was duty
required of persons selected from the
voters and taxpayers in accordance
with the requirements of the law. 1t
frequently J "opens, said his honor,
that those who want to serve on the
jury are the least qualified for that
service. He urged upon the Jury the
necessity of keeping secret their
proceed ings. The judge then called
attention to the law of abortion, de-
faulters, the local liquor license law,
concealed weapons and also the law
prohibiting the sale of cigarettes to
minors. The attention of the court
was called by the State game warden
to the killing of fish with dynamite,
and the court in turn gave the mat
ter in charge to the grand jury.
The several dockets were then call
ed oyer and judgments were entered
in uncontested cases and entries made
in others.
There are forty cases on the origi-
nal docket, twelve appeals and sixty
two trials on the civil docket.
Ten appeals were set for trial and
two were settled. Twenty-one cases
were set for trial on the trial docket.
The term will probably last about
two weeks
