be accepted. 1t contains about

Wednesday eleven men in Jail, ap-

for the woman, who through
courtesy of .Jailer Greenwade. had
been kept in a private residence.

pended judgment until a certain

to enter on record a credit for two

COURT.

Be it said to the credit of Meni-
fee county that there is little
criminality or civil contension in
the county. We did not have the
opportunity to get the proceed
ings of the days of court. The
most important or most grievous
offenses considered were violations
of local option laws and breach of
the peace. The iuries of Menifee
show that violators of the law
must be punished. We heard one
trial, a man named Iarber. -
years old, who had been in Jail
since last fall, was on trial for sell
ing wine. The chief witness was
Mr.. Wells, ex-County Superln-
tendent Of Schools, who testified
that he had bought about gallon
of wine from Yarber in a shanty
up in the head of the hollow on a
certain creek located either in
Menifee or Bath. The next wit
ness was pearl handle pistol Lyons
who assured the jury that the
aforesaid shanty was in Menifee.
There was no defense testimony
offered. The verdict was $50 i. e.
Yarber not Wells was fined $50.
Privately we were informed by
Mr. Wells that the occurrence was
on the day before a certain cleo
ton in which he was interested
and some of the boys" had sug-
gested the wine. We don't know
why he should have gotten mixed

The writer attended prayer
meeting at the Methodist church.
The service was conducted by
Postmaster Armitage. We
thought of our early experiences
at Hazel Green, especially as of
the seven prayers offered three
were by women. We cant speal7
for the other prayer meetings in

Christian church is concerned we
do not hear women pray. We
will not discuss why this is.

LEGISLATIVE RACE.
At Rothw'ell en- route to court
we met and talked with g. G.
Close one of the candidates for the
Legislature in this district (Meni-
fee and Montgomery.
At Frenchburg we talked with
Mr.. L. G. Davis, Whose announce
ment for same Office appears in
this issue) and with others. There
are now three annouced candidates:
C. F. Ringo, G. G. Gose and l..
c. Davis with probable fourth,
j. H. Williams. We had no talk
with the later on the subject.
We have previously referred in
these columns to ali agreement be-
tween the Democratic committees
of the two counties relative to the
alternating of the counties by
representation in the Legislature.
Judging from what we have heard
from Mr.. Gose and others there is
a difference of opinion in Menifee
as to what is included in that
agreement. and the difference is so
pointed that a Joint meeting of the
two committees will soon be called
to meet, when the matter will be
considered. The point at issue is
whether Menifee shall choose the
nominee in accordance with the
agreement (as generally interpret
ed in Menifee) and Montgomery
ratify the nomination, or whether
BOTH counties shall participate in
selecting the nominee.
Mr.. Gose favors the latter, and
Messrs. Ringo and Davis think
that Menifee should nominate the
candidate and let Montgomery
ratify, just as in previous race
Menifee ratified the choice of Mont
gomery. and this method is ac-
cOrding to agreement, of which
Montgomery has already had her
part.
