The question of whether or not the
defendants in this case shall be required
to serve terms of imprisonment sinks
into insignificance when compared with
the principles of constitutional govern
ment and human freedom which are in
volved. 1t was to guard, so far as pos
sible, against the abuse of power on the
part of the courts prevailing in monar-
chical countries, that it was written in
the constitution of the United States
that freedom of speech and freedom of
the press should not be abridged, even
by an act of congress; and that every
citizen should be entitled to trial by
a Jury of his peers before he might be
convicted of crime. And it is no re

try to say that the workingmen Will
not cease their agitation or abate their
demands until trial by jury for every
offense which involves Imprisonment
shall have been established and recog-
nized as the only true principle OF the
impartial administration of justice.
Public trials and impartial juries are
essential alike to the protection of the
court and the accused, because the in
fluence and weight of judicial decisions
must depend, in large measure, upon
the willing acquiescence of all groups in
society To maintain the integrity and
the righteousness of the judiciary, 1t is
important that the judges shall have
the assistance of jury in determining
the guilt and the measure of punish

Good Roads are Of equal bene-
fit with free delivery Of mail and
public schools, and they bear a
very close relation to both the
schools and the rural mail deliv-
cry. With good roads, school
districts can be enlarged and
graded schools with four to six
teachers can be run as easily all
over the country as in the towns.
Both in the matter of schools and
in the matter Of hauling farm
produce to market, distance is
guaged by the quality OF the
roads, and not by miles. A man
ten miles from town with good
macadam roads can haul eight
bales of cotton to market with
two horses, in less time and with
more ease than one FIVE miles
from the same town can haul
three bales over muddy roads.
The relation Of roads to the rural
mail delivery has lately been en-
phasized by letters from the Post
Office department to postmasters,
intimatiing that routes will be dis
continued unless better roads arc
provided. So il behooycs every
man who has access to the free
delivery system, to 60 to work
for better roads. II is only a
matter Of a short time when this
section will be compelled to give
up the advantages il enjoys in
having mail delivered, on account
OF not having better roads. That
IS one Of the most important re.
qnirements Of the governments in
establishing these routes. Better
be on the safe side and lets build
better roads. -Chapel Hill News.
