PAYS TO Be HONEST.
This Mas The ExpAieDCe Of Claude Under
Wood,

One year ago at the Ju Q term OF
Federal court, Claude Underwood
was convicted of illicit distlillne
and sentenced by the court to a
year and a day in the Atlanta
penitenslary, wherelpon the de-
fendent arose aud told the court
that he would like to be obliging,
but he Just cou!dn't SEQ his way
clear to begin that term right
away.

such condition that | just can't
afford to 60 to Atlanta now"
After saying further that he
hated not to be accomm odating
and would come back at any oth4r
time when his "craps" we're at

down,
So struck with the popularity
of the situation or maybe more by

held some Of the finest traits OF
real manhood, despite his viola,
slons of the law, Judge Boyd
hardened to the words of the
prisoner, II can't 60 to the pen

COURT HOUSE MATTER SET
TIED.

The editor OF The WATCHMAN
having been interested in the op
position to the construction Of a
new court house because of the up-
necessary burden such q supposed
necessary issue of bonds would have
put upon the citizens of the coun-
ty, and owing to the fact that the
three county commissioners who
were overwhelmingly defeated on
this proposition to be aetna
ted by spite, instead of needing
the peoples wishes, a mass meet
ing was called to be held in Sails
bury, Saturday. Jr ne 29th., for
the purpose of considering the
matter aid taking steps to enforce
the wish Of the people, Having
looked into the matter more care
fully. obtained legal advice and
secured definite information con-
corning the plans of the commits
sioners, we are now almost ready
to endorse the steps taken by the
commissioners and, we are sure
should they have made these plans
known some time ago there would
have probably been very little ob
lection raised. Our only objee-
tion now is, that knowing the
people are opposed to thu scheme
nothing should have been d2n4
Evan the present plans, under the
conditions and sentiment prevail
ing should be submitted to ths
people. This would be showing
proper respect for majority rule,
Dsmocrasic tea ching and conf-
dence in the wisdom of the poo.
pie.
Under the present arrangement
some of the best attorneys at the
Salisbury bar inform Us that alb
solutely nothing can be done and
a mass meeting and further pro.
ceedings to the contrary are uss-
less, as nc bonds are to be issued
and no increase in taxation il
contemplated The scheme has
been worked out on the !oilowlDg
basis:
Only t115 coo is to be borrowed
at 5 per-. cent interest," payable
semi-annualIy. This amount is
to cover she cost of the bu; ding
furniture for all Offices, heating,
plumbing, ETC., and notes are tt
be given ard payable as follows:
$4,000, July 1st, 1914 TO 1915 in.

$4,000. 1925 to 1929 inclusion.
$4,000, 1880 to 1911 Inclusion.
$4,000, 1912.
This is much cheaper and bet.
