DOCTORS EXAMINE PUPILS
And a Lady Board of Visitors Are
Recommendations Made by Supt.
Land in His Annual Report.

In his annual report to the board
of Public School Commissioners Fri
day night Supt. F. E. Land made a
number of interesting recommends
tiOns, the most important of which
was that there be medical inspections
twice a year of the children who at
tend the Dawson schools.
In most of the large cities, SAYS
the superintendent, the Importance
OF medical inspection for the schools
has been successfully demonstrated.
Children who sometimes appear dull
and listless are so not because of
mental weakness, he declares, but be-
cause of some physical defect OF
which the child, parent and teacher
are Q1tlmes ignorant, In many cases
pupils have been saved from deaf
ness, partial blindness and ether
serious disorders by having their
trouble first discovered by the medi-
cal inspector. While there is no sye-
tenn in the state as small as Dawson's
that has medical inspection, yet it is
important for small as well as a
large system, thinks the superintend-
emit The board appointed DR.. L.
Lamar a committee to investigate
what has been done in other cities
along this line, and will take the
matter up for action at a later date.
Another important recommends
ton Of superintendent Land, and
something not usual in the smaller
towns, is that a committee of ladies
be appointed to visit the schools and
cooperate with the board for their
Improvement 1t was also recon-
mended that a catalogue of the
schools be published in order that
essential Data and records may be
preserved.
The report showed an enrolment
of 332 for the year, and an average
daily attendance of 290. This is one
of the largest in the history of the
schools.

FREED OF BURGLARY CHARGE.
White Man Arrested in Preston Is
Turned Loose.

White Man Arrested iii Preston Is
Turned Loose.
Robert L. Owen, a white man,
has been given his liberty after I'M
dergoing trial for burglary.
Owen was arrested three weeks
ago suspected of having committed
burglary at Plains. The evidence
against him was wholly circumstan-
cial, and in clear and convincing
statement made to the jury he eX-
planned his presence in this section.
He was in Americas, almost out of
funds, half sick and anxious to get
to his mothers home in Selma, Ala.
Having no money for car fare he
beat it" on the tender of a Seaboard
train to Preston, where he was dis
covered and fired on by the crew.
Next day he was arrested there upon
the burglary charge, the alleged en-
tering of a store at Plains, in Sumter
county, the night before. Owen s
story impressed the jurors and spec.
tators alike with it's straightforward
sincerity, and the jury lost no time
in bringing in verdict of acquittal

SHERIFF MAKES STATEMENT
MIR. HILL CORRECTS REPORT OF
THE GRAND JURY AS TO
JAIL EXPENSES.

Editor of The Dawson News: The
report of the grand jury made at the
May term, 1909, of Terrell Superior
Court, just finished. will appear in
this issue of your paper. 1 ask leave
1 to correct certain errors which APP
pear therein and | do this for the rea-
son that they refer to the office
which | have the honor to hold, and
| in measure cast some reflection
upon my administration of the af-
fairs of that office. |. am satisfied
! it was not the purpose or desire of
| the grand jury or any member there
| of to injure me in any respect, or to
reflect upon the administration of the
affairs of my office. They simply Sc
cured their information from some
source other than the official record
| The report in question contains
the following statement: 1--WE find
the books of all the county officers
neatly and correctly kept"
The law requires the sheriff to
keep in his office certain books of
record which are to be examined by
the grand jury at each term. One
VI CICoS DOOh0 10 d jail record, ana
contains every item of Jail expense.
The original entries are found on this
book, and it is the proper document
to be examined to find the Jail ex-
penses of the county. If the book in
my office was examined by the last
grand jury, and found correct, as
asserted in the quotation above, |
cannot imagine how they arrived at
the following statement, to-wit:
I'VE find further that the Jail ex-
penses are about $500 per month,
which is very high"
For the information of the public
give the following data, which is
taken from the record in my office.
This record has been passed as cor
rect by each grand jury heretofore,
and shows the Jail expenses of this
county to a cent during my tenure

MAYOR MARLIN HAS A WORD
THINKS CORPORATIONS ARE BE-
HIND OPPOSITION TO THE
NEW CHARTER.

To the Voters of Dawson: When
| was inaugurated Mayor of Dawson
some six months ago, in my message
to the City Council of Dawson, which
message was published in The Daw-
son News, | advocated certain meas
ures which l considered to be for
the best interest of the city of Daw-
son, among which was the rechar-
tering of our city. The present char
ter | deemed inadequate and not
broad enough to meet the necessities
of a city of this size, as had been
previously demonstrated. This sug-
gestion seemed to meet with general
appreciation.
On motion fl. H. Davis, a mem
Der of the City Council of Dawson,
the Mayor was authorized to appoint
a commission to draft a new char
ter for the City of Dawson, and act
ing in my capacity as Mayor | ap-
pointed a commission for this pur-
pose consisting of, I thought, rep
resentatiVe citizens of Dawson. But
it so happened that none of them
were identified with corporate inter-
ests, so far as | am informed, it
never occurring to me to appoint
representative of corporate interests
on this important commission.
The commission appointed unani-
mously reported new charter to the
City Council of Dawson, which pro-
posed charter has been published in
The Dawson News. The City Coun-
Gil referred the proposed charter to
1c hA 1f+ .
Dawson for the purpose of discuss
ing the same, and accordingly a !
mass meeting was held May 31st at
the court house. At this meeting
there was no reading or discussion |
of the revised charter, but upon mo- |.
ton of M. J. Yeomans, an experienced |
corporate lawyer, new committee |
named by NJ. j. Yeomans was elected
to revise the proposed charter that /
had been drafted by the commission /
appointed by the Mayor. Upon mo-
ton of M. J. Yeomans this commit
tee was instructed to report back to |
mass meeting of the citizens of
Dawson to be held at the court house
On the night Of Monday, June IA,
} S09. Under the motion submitting +,
ms matter to discussion by a mass /
meeting it was incorporated in the
notion that it was to be finally set
led by the council at it's regular
meeting on the night of June |,
1909, but in accordance with the
notion made by NJ. J. Yeomans, and
adopted by said mass meeting, the {
'ouncil deferred action until after 1
Iune IA, 1909. il
My only purpose is to carry out in
GOOD faith the promises l made to
he citizens of Dawson in my message
Q the City Council. l have consci-
.ntiously tried to perform this trust, ,
md l hope you will aid me by being
present at the court nouBe on the
fight of the 14th inst. in obtaining (;
or Dawson a charter not contami-
lated by corporate or political po,lq-
ion. l am trying to serve you. Do
lot be recreant to your interests.
respectfully,
