Saloons Building a Town.

A few years ago there came into our
Office citizen of Jerome, a little yil-
lage five miles north OF Selma In this
county. We asked him about things
and he replied that they were some
what dull and that what Jerome need
ed was ga tap" Our idea was that a
saloon was just what the place did not
need, but others thought with that
man and so by act of the Legislature
The place was incorporated and the
main thing in having it done at that
time was to arrange to sell liquor there.
Two saloons were opened and it was
not long before one of the saloon men
vas killed in his saloon by one of his
customers. A little later poor negro
got drunk there and was put in the
guard house which was set on fire and
the negro was roasted to death. We
are told that four others lost their lives
in Or near the place and that the trou-
Bile was caused mainly if not altogether
by the selling of liquor at Jerome.
The saloons were closed there July
LIST and it is now seen that .hey die

A TEMPERANCE BOY.

You'd scarce expect one of my age
To plead for temperance on the stage,
And should chance to fall below
Portraying all the drunkard's woe,
Don't view me with critics eye,
Nor pass my simple story by. .lf1ow,
Large streams from little fountains
Great sots from moderate drunkards
grow.
So, though I DOW am small and young,
No rum shall ever touch my tongue.
Let ali the boys an. girls like me
From liquor pledge they will he free.
Then will not our Columbia's sod
Snrpass by far the Emerald Isle?
Yes, Ireland then will be outdone
And every land beneath the sun.
These thoughts inspire my youthful
mind
To Danish grogshops from mankind
These shops that stain our land with
blood,
By pouring forth poisonous flood,
Yet claimed to be "Publ.c good"
Come, children, then, come one and all,
A nd listen to the temperance call.
Well make our army large and strong,
Well sign the pledge and sing the song
Our banners widespread wide the truth,
Rum can't repel the attacks of youth.
The way to do we know right we'll;
Well neither make, nor buy nor sell.
We will not put it to our lips,
We won't import it in our ships.
Our steamboats,, railroads, cars and
stages
Shall never thrive by alchol's wages.
No store of ours shall be employed
To make place for rum to hide.
Well search him out whe'er he turks,
Nor will we be rnm-sellers' clerks.

A STRANGE VERDICT.

A recent jury trial and verdict in Chi cago affords a graphic illustration of a miscarriage of justice, and of the prob Harry Ferris, an employe in one of the shops, was shot and killed. There was a strike going on and Ferris was killed while on his way to work. A man named Kilroy was arrested and put on trial few days ago and. in the language of special from Chicago, 'in spite of the fact that Kilroy was identified fin the trial by five witnesses, and in the face of the fact that the defense offered not particle of evidence in Kilroy's behalf, tine jurors returned a sealed verdict of not guilty"
 It is not strange that the trial Judge was so surprised at this verdict that he abruptly dismissed the jury with the re- mark: Cook County dispenses with your further services" Nor is it strange that courts fall to command the respect that should attach to them, when such yer diets are rendered by juries. We have read the circumstances connected with this case, in addition to the words quoted above. and we find not single reason to doubt the guilt of Kilroy. The proof ap- peared to establish his guilt beyond any kind of doubt, but the jury had reasons for not convicting him.
 The Advertiser is publishing a series of articles from the best informed sources in the State on "The best way to make human life safe in Alabama" and all of the writers have something to say about the frequent failure of juries to render just verdicts. This failure is one of the invariable arguments used by advocates of lynch law. If the friends of the mur- dered man should lynch Kilrow and point to the verdict of the Chicago jury as their excuse, what defense would the friends of law and order have, except to repudiate the action of the jury? They could argue that this verdict was contrary to law and evidence, but the lynchers would reply: ''We admit that, but what reason have we to expect that other juries will not do just as this one did?" That would be a question and an argument based on facts
 The courts of the country should not give grounds for such arguments. There should be no excuse for mob law, and when a human being is lynched 1t is a grievous reflection on our courts that the lynchers should have even the slightest Justification in their own minds or before their fellow men, based on the arSu- ment or assertion that courts and jurles cannot be depended on. Whenever and wherever the law inficts punishment on men according to their deserts, with out fear or favor, and without regard to outside influences, then and there will mob law cease to find adherents or de- lenders.
