THE CIRCUIT COURT
The Greer Trial Consumed Wednesday
Thursday and Friday.

The taking Of testimony ii the
case Of the State VS.. J F. Greer ct
al which commenced after dinner
Wednesday was not concluded until
about 6 o'clock Thursday evening.
Both the State and the defense in
troduced a larger number of wit
nesses in this case than at the first
trial. the State having 20 or more
new ones in all summoned, though
a considerable number of these. as
well as several summoned by the
defense were not placed on the
stand. Old Mile Dixon. the only
negro witness introduced by the
State in the first trial, on being
placed on the stand and denying
/ her former testimony, was sent to
Jail to answer to the charge Of per-
jury.
Yesterday the instructions of the
court were given to the jury and
the case argued. District Attor-
ney Wall, who has conducted the
case at both trials. unassisted by
other counsel, made the opening
speech and was followed by Messrs.
H. Cassidy and A. q. McNair for
the defense. During the speech of
Mr.. Cassidy at the morning session,
Mr.. G. w. King. one Of the jur-
ors, was taken sick with a case of
cramp colo. A physician was sum-
Emoned, and after an hour or so, he
was able to take his place again in
the box.
AS this report closes, Mr.. Nc
Nair is nearing the close of his arr
gument for the defense. and is to
be followed by District Attorney
Wall in closing speech.
The State made out more COM
plete case by its testimony than
during the first trial, but the ac-
cused also made a good deal strong
er defense. The expressions Of
opinion heard are to the effect that
there will either be another mis-
trial or a clear-cut verdict Of not
guilty.

decision rests are: w. d. King,

Emany Of them buckshot struck the
north side of the court house. evi-
identity having been fired at Ernest
Newman. when he first appeared.
These shots all came from a north
leasterIy direction. Other bullets,
believed to be from a rife. struck
the southwest corner of the court
house also. Windows both in the
CostIey building and in the Butler
building were scattered above and
below. There were bullets, too,
lin the woodwork almost every
where. In the. front end of the
Butler building just beside the
window where Boyd or Farr are
supposed to have fired an entire
load of buckshot struck. passed
through the tin and into the room.
These are supposed to have been
the bullets that injured both Boyd
and Farr. This window was also
broken. 1t is supposed that the
buckshot near this window had
been fired by Sam from across the
street. 1t is estimated that the
firing continued, ceasing at inter-
walls of several seconds while the
shooters were reIoading their guns,
from fifteen to twenty minutes;
some say even longer. All told.
It is estimated that more than 100
shot were fired.
Yesterday rife shells, blanks
from shotguns, were to be seen
about the streets Of Meadville all
along where the different ones had
been and moved about.
II Is claimed that 10 one who was

BOIL NEEVIL SCARE.
Farmers Must Not Become Discouraged,
Keep IIuslIing, Says Agent
Knapp.

From the extreme Western part
of the county, and several other iso-
lated parts, authentic reports are
coming in telling Of the early raw
ages of the boil weevil on young
cotton. Instead of becoming un-
duly alarmed and discouraged by
this fact, the farmers may we'll
take fresh courage from the follow
ing bulletin lately sent out by
special Government Agent S. A..
Knapp:
Jackson, June 2, 1909.
To Agents in Boil WeeviI Territory ::
Reports have reached our office
covering the effect of the recent
heavy rains on cotton in the boil
weevil districts. Of course, the
heavy rains have been favorable to
the weevil. and nothing else could
have been expected in weevil terri
tory than the weevil should appear
land be rather plentiful on the
young cotton But our experience
in this boil Weeyil fight is that 1t
is far better to have wet period
at this time than later, when the
plant is larger and the squares more
numerous. The farmer is inclined
to look at the dark side Of things.
This early rain is rathera favorable
fsymptom than otherwise, because
in all probability, it will clear off
and be warm and dry. 1t 1907 we
had just such period Of rain d
trifie later than this. 1t cleared
loft and in a few weeks nine tenths
Of the weevil. so far as reported,
had disappeared. The man who
energetically clears out his cotton
as soon as the weather permits and
lstrictly follows our plan of inten-
sive cultivation, will be quite sure
Ito make fair crop.
We are not afraid Of these early
rains;s it is the late rain: because
if the farmer now follows our plan
and picks up the squares for a
month, the weevil will be pretty
NEARLY exterminated In fact. If
Eevery ybody would do it. the weevil
would do very little damage. But
/ when there is a period of continu-
ous rain after the plant has nearly
lmatnred. It is much more difficult
problem to handle. The sun has

trict Attorney Wall stated that no

gagged in the Meadville fight and

and Farr had not been found.

The Newspaper.

The publisher If newspaper
has one thing to sell and one to
rent. He has the newspaper to
sell and the space in his columns
to rent. Can anyone tell US why
he should be expected to give
away either the one or the Other?
He can if he chooses, and does as
a matter of fact, furnish great
deal of space rent free. But it
does not follow that he ought to
be expected to do so. 1t ought
to be recognized as would be
the giving of sugar or coffee by
the grocer. But, strange to say,
it is not looked upon in that
light at all, and yet everybody
knows that the existence of a
newspaper depends upon the rent
of its space and the sale of
paper. Just the same as a mer-
chants success depends on SELL
ing his goods instead of giving
them them away.-Exchange.
