Editor Brandon News !:

Editor Brandon News:
Please permit me through the columns
of your paper to make some explanation
in regard to the jurors drawn for the
July term of court.
You will see that Cato has nearly all
and Clear Creek precinct has none at
all. Now all of that large territory
will not have a single man on the grand
jury to represent them at the next term,
and l feel like they will think did not
do my duty and | want to be clear about
the matter. For the benefit of those peo-
pie down at Clear Greek will show
them all that member of the board has
to do with the jurors.
Section 26S8, Chapter II, Code of 1906,
reads as follows: "How list of jurors
are procured. The board of supervisors
at the first meeting in each year or at a
subsequent meeting if not done at the first
meeting, shall select and make list of
Court of the twelve months beginning
more than thirty days afterwards and as
a guide in making the list they shall
use the registration book of voters and
shall select and list the names of quail
fed persons Of good intelligence, sound
judgment and fair character and shall
take them as nearly as they conveniently
can from the several supervisors districts
in proportion to the number of qualified
persons in each excluding all who have
served on the regular panel within two
years if there be not a deficiency of Jurors
Said clerk shall put the names from each
supervisors district in a separate box or
compartment kept for the purpose which
shall be locked and kept closed and sealed
except when jurors are drawn when the
names shall be drawn for each box in
regular order until a sufficient number
is drawn. The board of supervisors
shall cause the jury box to be emptied of
all names therein and the same to be re-
filled from the jury list as made by them
at said meeting. If jury box shall at any
time be so exhausted of names as that a
jury cannot be drawn as provided by law,
then the board of supervisors at any regu-
lar meeting make new list of Jurors
in the manner herein provided. :"
Now, this is everything we have to do
with the business at all, and if the people
at Clear Greek feel like they have been
sighted it is not myfault. / have done
my duty as the list will show.
Yours truly,
NEWT NASH.

You can have no better motto on your
walls this crop growing season than the
sentiment from Sidney Lanier's poem:
Thar's more in the man than thar is In
the land.n A farmer in one of our sand
hill counties said to us the other day: Il
can take you right out here to the farm OF
a man who makes 100 bushels of corn to
the acre, and right adjoining him is an
other farmer who makes only ten bushels
per acre The land is the same, and 1t is
only a difference in the men. "-Starkville
Farmer and Gazette. And that remark
holds good in every county in the United
States and far more frequently IN the
West than in the South. In this state we
have very few land owners who do
not make at least living, and bigger
proportion who do better than anywhere
else in the United States. But every
where there is room for Improvement.
