JUDGE TRuLY,S CHARGE.

JUDGE 1hULl . O1AhOE.
The absence of crime through
out this county obyiated and
made unnecessary the ordinary
charge TO the Grand Jury Incident
to the opening of Circuit Court
~ the Judge, and while of course
he complied with his duty in in
structing the jurors as to the mat
tiers to come before them for in
vestigation, he took advantage of
this occasion to praise the county
and its law-abIding citizens upon
the law and order that has pre-
vailed among them for several
years. There were, Of course, a
few cases of assault and battery
and petty larceny, confined entire
ly to the negroes, as no white man
has been tried IN this county for
about ten years, but the docket
was entirely clear of crimes of Il
graver nature. This was the cause
of the Judges charge, who said
that since be has presided as
Judge in this District, this has
been the most law-abiding county
in the state, and the sessions of
court at times are only a matter
of form to transact routine BUSH
ness. Of such a record any coun-
ty might feel justly proud, and
the people thankful for such a
happy condition of affairs, which
not only gives peace and quiet,
but 1t lessons, IN great measure.
the taxation on the people, or per
mits this money, LEVIED upon the
tax payers, to be used in improv.
ing the conditions Of the county,
instead of being expended in pay
ing the expenses of long sessions
of court, made necessary in coun'
ties where disregard of the law
prevails.
The Judge also congratulated
the people IN glowing terms, upor
the progress it has made during
the past few years, and said thai
IN no section Of the state is tht
spirit of enterprise more apparen
than in cold wilkinson" Sucl
tributes to our county are certain
to be fraught with material gooC
in the way of inducing settlers t.
come among US and aid in furthet
developing our vast resources
We are grateful to this distin
guisbed gentleman for his word
of praise and commentator o
our county.

GRAND JURY REPORT.

TO the Hon. jeff Truly, Judge OF
The 9th Judicial District, Will
kinson county, Miss.
We, your Grand Jury, empan-
eled for the July 1902 Term, beg
leave to report that we have been
in session three days, have exam
ined forty-seven witnesses and in
vestigated seventeen cases, found
eight true bills, continued four
cases, ignored three and referred
two to magistrates courts. We
have made an examination and in
speetion of the Jail and premises
and find every thing kept in an
orderly and sanitary condition.
The prisoners report kind treat
ment and plenty of healthy food.
We have made special inquiry of
the members of our body with
reference to the public roads and
each and all state that they arc in
good shape and we'll kept. There
was one complaint of a bridge in
the town of Fort Adams, said to
be dangerous, and there is a gen
eral complaint from all over the
county about culverts, and we
would respectfully submit that
while the roads are generally gooC
throughout the county, and
all of the road contractors seen
to be using their best efforts, thu
matter of culverts seem to have
been left out of the count.
We know not whether it il
within our province, but the con
sensus of opinion of this body i
that there shall be a regularl,
appointed Road Commissioner
This recommendation Is made 70
the reason that at their regula
July meeting, the Board of Super
visors failed to appoint a Com
missioner, the contract with th
one who had been acting, havinI
expired. Evidence has been pre-
sented to us which goes to shov
that in one item alone, Chat o
measuring the length of the roads
the Commissioner saved for tn
county more than his years salary
We further submit that the book
of the county and district officer
have been examined and foun,
correct with the following excep
ton of a few Privilege License
unpaid, and we respectfully cal
attention of the Sheriff to same
In conclusion we wish to retur
our thanks to your Honorable self
the District Attorney aud the of
ficers of this Court for the uni
formIy polite and courteous treat
ment that has been accorded us
and beg leave to be discharged.

The water from the public we'll
at Gloster has been analysed and
found to be of the purest quality,
and the chemist reports that it is
analogous to one of the famous
springs of Alabama. This will be
very beneficial to the health of our
sister town aud we will consider
ourselves lucky should we strike
such fine quality of water for our
water supply.

After organization on Monday
morning Court suspended to allow
the people, who had gathered from
all sections of the county to listen
to the addresses of Hon. Frank A.
McLain and Hon. J. G. Spencer,
candidates for Congress from this
district. Mr.. Spencer, who is a
fluent talker, opened with an adj
dress of about an hour, in course
of which he defined his position on
national and state issues, and then
turned to review of his record in
Congress, comparing it to that of
his opponent, but on the whole de-
livered an address that prove his
ability as an orator. Mr.. McLai
followed, and there being no diff.
ference of opinion on national is
sues, he referred to them briefly
and then passed to his own RECORD
as a Congressman. as his opponent
has made this the issue. He re-
viewed his work, claiming only q
share Of the credit for the bills he
had advocated and worked for ii
their passage through Congress,
which is a credit to himself, anC
referred to the work accomplished
BY his opponent in comparison
being frequently applauded by hi
hearers. Mr.. McLain is a deeI
thinker, fluent talker and powe
as a debater, and acquitted himsel
with credit. He has always beef
favorite with our people and they
will stand by him in this canvas
as they have always done in tn
past.

Murphy 6 Co.'s Stock Letter.

New York, April 5.-The stock market today opened without continuance of selling pressure which caused yester- days late reaction. It was without the buoyancy which characterized the greater part of yesterdays but prices generally were firm. A fair degree of activity enjoyed in first hour but subsequently, business was contracted and after publi- cation of bank statement there was fur ther increase in .dullness. The statement showed unexpectedly large decreases in cash holdings and surplus reserves. The effect upon prices, however, was not marked and while a somewhat lower range of values was established at the close, the losses as rule were fraction ally lower. Louisville and Nashville en- joyed gain of 1h per cent on buying up on recognition of the large interest re- turn in the investment at current price. Illinois Central was inclined to strength but closed at only slight gain. Colo rado Fuel and Iron recovered its early loss. Sugar was fractionally off Amal- gamated Copper was slightly higher but Anaconda was weak. Strength was shown by general Electric, Westinghouse. Union Bag Company twine and some specialties
 Market closed steady. Government bonds unchanged; railroad bonds steady.
