CAROLINE COURT
Little Business--S Short Term--Speech
On Statewide Prohibition.
LAND SALES AND OTHER NOTES

The February term Of the Circuit
court OF Caroline commenced and ended
Monday. There was but little business
before the court, and Judge Mason re-
NAMED over until Tuesday TO sign up
orders.
A special grand jury, with John l..
White foreman, was impaneled and
brought down two indictments Philip
Walker, colored. for felony, unlawful
cutting, and Dallas Pollard, colored, for
misdemeanor, cruelty to animals in kill
ing a mule.
LAND SALES.
Mr.. S. II. Evans, of near Guiney's
has sold for G. w. Colbert a farm con-
tanning 434 acres, near Massaponax. in
Spotsylvania, to Messrs. II. w. and A.
Dickerson. Terms private.
Mr.. A. b. Chandler, trustee, sold at
public auction 81 acres of land owned
by Mobia Gallery and Monahan Wright,
IN Madison district, to r. l.. Blanton
for $500.
T. ID. COghill, trustee, sold 80 acres
near Naulakla, part of the Martin
estate, to DR.. A. L. Martin for $500.
STATEWIDE SPEAKING.
Rev. K. c. Stuart, of the Antisaloon
League, addressed good audience in
the courthouse during the intermission
Of court. He made an earnest appeal
Tor action by the people, and after he
finished. many walked up and signed
the petition to be presented to the leg
islature.
THE PoSToFFICE APPOINTMENT.
There has been no appointment to the
vacant postmastership, occasioned by
the death of Mr.. E. L. r. Dunn. Mr..
Collins is still in charge of the office,
and IT looks now as if the contest has
narrowed down to Messrs. Gouldin and
Travers. Mr.. Travers has never been
an active contestant for the position,
but his friends are pushing his claims.
The general impression is that Gouldin
VIII win, but politics are very uncer-
tain.
The tobacco market is very satisfac-
tory to the planters. Prices are better.
Ii is an unfortunate condition that a
county like Caroline does not raise suf-
ticient hay, corn or wheat to supply its
local needs during the year. Thousands
of dollars are sent West for grain and
hay, when it should be made at home.
When the reason for this is asked, the
reply is: Tobacco pays better. This
may be so, but why not raise both?
There is plenty of land idle.
