AS indicated in these columns last
week, w believe the pretermission Of
the Circuit Court was a mistake. Ger.
tainly the majority of the farmers
will have their crops virtually Laid
by" by that time and the little work
yet to be done could easily have been
finished by those who had no business
at the court. Many farmers appreci.
ate the court as a sort of recreation.
But aside from these things, the
courts are order preservers and are de-
signed to prevent crime as we'll as to
punish those who have transgressed
the law. A Circuit Court is necessary
oftener than once in twelve months
for many reasons.
We do not know at whose suggeS.
tion the matter was initiated but right
here it would not be out Of place to
remark that Judges should remember
that the bar is by no means a MAORI
ity Of those who are to be considered
as interested in the courts.

and from a conversation with
them, we wonld conclude
that things were going mighty
rocky in Grenada in certain quar-
tiers. This is bad. II should not be

first place, because it is a violation
of plainly written legal statutes,
in the next place because it is

A violation of law is not neces-
sary for the preservation of the life
or the maintenance of
any honest man. Dishonest men
should be breathing an atmos-
phere that circulates behind the
bars. The fact is too many of the
people of our beloved section have
shut their eyes to we'll known and
fragrant violations of law so often
and so frequently that such prac-
tees have kinder been grated in
to the life of our land. Things
should be righted in Grenada. We
have good officers but they must
have the outspoken, moral and &C
tive support of theb best citizenship
of the community. Will the law
people publicly speak out or
will they, for business and perhaps
political reasons, say nothing ?
We shall see. If reports that
come to US be true, something
needs to be done.

Speculati0ns Cause Another

an embezzler OF the banks funds,
states that his first misstep was made

another, which is almost aiwavs the

name Of a prominent customer Of the
bank to a check. The New Orleans
Daily States is little surprised at In

cussing Ingram S case the States says
Nevertheless it is not astonishing
that such things should happen when
we consider the growing tendency OF
modern business methods to divorce
good morals from business. Why, it
has been only a few short weeks age
that a number OF bankers and business
men OF high standing went on the
witness stand, in the suit of the state
Of Louisiana versus the Tulane I'M
provement Company, and testified un-
der oath that, in their opinion. a
transaction that involved the admins.
tering OF a sacred trust in such manner
as to bring profits to the Immediate
family OF the administrator, was a per.
fectly moral and honorable transac.
ton.
When such business principles are
boldly proclaimed by patriachs in
backing and Business circles can there
be any wonder that ambitious and
monev-mad young men, like Ingram,
should act upon that principle and act
ually use trust funds to promote
their own protits?"

The Unions Efforts,

The Farmers Union has aroused
the farmers to their possibilities.
1t has put them to thinking and
when people think, something is
going to follow the result of that
mental effort. The Union has no
doubt been worth more to the
cotton farmer than to any
other agricultural class be-
cause his product is in dems nd in
every part of the globe. Wise
planning, cautious business meth
DDS and the continued direction
OF sensible and practical efforts by
the farming classes will, ere long,
beget for the farmer his own. Far
mers do not need to be led. They,
perhaps more than any other class
in the world, are their own mas
tiers. They have never suffered
because of the lack of a "leader"
or LEADERS" but because too
many others have preyed upon
their industry. If the vultures Of
finance and commerce would alb
solutely refrain fIom teasting up
on the farmers product. he would
soon be in prosperous scircum-
stances. The. farmer don't need
