COMMON PLEAS COURT.
Jurors Were Dismissed Within Fiji
teen Minutes After Court
Convened.

The court OF common pleas Tor
Newberry county convened yesterday
morning. Special Judge James Y.
Culbreath. of the Newberry bar, pre-
siding. Under an agreement OF the
bar previously made no jury cases
were brought to trial and the jurors
were given one days pay and had
been dismissed within fifteen minutes
alter the court was called.
\ special term OF the common pleas
court, to begin on the sd OF October
and to last two weeks. has been asked
for by the Newberry bar.
1t was explained by Col. O. L.
Schumpert. president OF the New
berry Bar association. that the bar
had decided to call off this court for
MANY reasons. one OF the chief among
which was that three members OF the
bar were engaged in other business
which would conflict with this term
OF the court and which would continue
even after the court. Having only
one week and a very heavy docket,
onlv few cases could have been
tried in ny event For these reasons
the bar had decided to bring no cases
TO trial at this time. but to ask tor
the two weeks special term begin
ming October 3. 1t was believed. he
said. that these two weeks would
clear the jury docket.
The commission OF Special Judge
Culbreath. who was presiding. gives
him the appointment also for the reg
rlar term OF the general sessions
court. which convencs on the first
day OF August.
Special Judge Cuioreath addressed
the jurors saying th"t he thought the
action of the bar III calling off the
court was very appropriate. Very
little could have been done anyway,
he said. He feelingly referred to the
illness OF Judge Gage
Judge Culbreath then took up the
price of cotton and discussed it brief
ly. He hoped the jurors would make
good crops and get good prices. He
believed they would get good prices
for several years The same condi-
tons prevailed today as in the lttles.
when the price went up On an in
creasing production. 1t was at that
time that gold had been discovered
in California and the gold fever was
running high. He referred to the
wonderful increase in the production
ni gold. It had increased in the last
ten wears from 100000 annually
10 S3io. 600. 600 in the world. and IN
the United States from about $780,
900. 900 to about $4,000, 900. 1t was
the money crop. This was the rea-
son the plank had been left out OF the
democratic platform.
With that the jurors were given
their. pay certificates and went their
way.
