THE GRAND JURY.

The grand jury got through with the
work Of the term last Tuesday after
noon, and submitted the following
signed by Jas. M. Starr, foreman, as Its
final report:
I'VE, the Grand Jury, having passed
on all bills handed us, and having re.
turned same to the court, with oul
findings thereon, beg leave to submit
the following:
THE various committees appointed al
the last term of court on different mat
ters concerning the county made their
reports. and same were received as in
formation.
Schools, roads and bridges were dis
cussed with interest.
THE committee appointed to inves-
tieate conditions at the county home
made such report that, nthe judgment
of this jury, we deemed it necessary
that immediate action should be ia
ken. Therefore the following resolu-
tion was passed: That the committee
appointed at the last term of court
consisting Of John A. Black Jas. NJ
Starr and T. M. Ferguson, with the
addition of Walter B. Moore, to look
into conditions of County Home; be
now authorized to take the whole mat
torment Of the County Home in hand

Home, or except so much as will be
needed by county for such purpose
They are to exercise their best judg-
ment in making sale Of land, as to
tim, and manner.
And. also, to secure plans and bids
for such buildings and improvements
as will be required. They are to have
above mentioned plans and bids ready
to submit to grand jury at the Novem-
ber term Of court All Of this looking
to improvement of county home.
Further, this committee Is author
lied to make such disposition of GER
tain inmates of county home as they
deem best.
Thanking your honor and the soltc-
itor for the courtesies shown. and II
there be no further business we beg to
be discharged"
the attention of the court was call
ed to the fact that under the law. 1ur-
isdiction in the matter referred to was
especially vested in the county board
of commissioners. and Judge Gage ad-
vised the grand jury that 1t would
hardly have power to do as 1t had re-
solved to do.

GENERAL SESSIONS.

When The Enquirer went to press
last Tuesday the court had under con.
sideration some preliminaries in the
case of the state VS.. w. E. and Harvey
Griffin charged with the murder Of e
P. H. Nevins in Fort Mill township ir
the latter part of December 1910; but
the case was not regularly taken up
until Wednesday afternoon.
A case in which there was consider
able interest was that Of the state vs.
!. a. Eubanks, charged with murder
The circumstances Of the case being
still fresh in the public mind counsel
for Eubanks did not consider It wise to
go to trial at this time and asked for a
continuance, which was granted. The
court saw proper to continue the case
on it's own account.
A case of some interest was that OF
]. G. Clyburn, a former policeman OF
Rock Hill, charged with malicious
mischief. The charge grew out of the
shooting of a dog belonging to T. NJ
Hanna. The defendant gave as an ex-
cuse that he thought the dog was mad /;
but the fact that he left the dog to die
Of wound and other circumstances
led the jury TO find verdict of guilty.
The court imposed a sentence of $50
or thirty days.
In the case of Jake Roddey charged
with murder. the testimony showed a
clear case of self defense.
The case of w. f. and Harvey Grif-
fin consumed the greater part of We'd
nesday afternoon and nearly all of
Thursday. The case of the state show
ed lot of hard work; but there was
not enough evidence to convict. On
cross examination Of the defendants
witnesses the state seemed to strength
Il L Il
to bring to bear other than a strong
presumption that the killing grew out
of domestic trouble. Most of the evil
dence of the state was in certain letters

TO VOTE IN PRIMARY

1t must not be forgotten that no in.
diVidual whether duly registered ol
not, will be allowed to vote in the pri-
mary election to be held on the las
Tuesday in August unless his name Is
on the club roll Of the precinct al
which he desires to vote at least five
days before the election.
That Is the law Of the Democratic
party.
AS a general thing precinct club.
keep their club rolls from election tC
election, adding new names; but moi
removing any that have already beer
entered, and a voter once enrolled, re.
mains eligible as long as the use OF
the list is continued.
But sometimes the officers Of a pre-.
cinct club lose the old list or for some
reason decide upon new enrolment
and In either case the names that ha6
formerly been entered upon the list
have to be entered again.
The matter of enrolment is one thai
every voter should look out for on his
own account. He does not have to sigr
the roll; nor does he have to give the
precinct secretary personal instruc.
tions. That can be attended to by
others; but every citizen who would be
sure Of safeguarding his right to vote
must see to 1t that his name is entered
on the roll The situation Is one that
fully justifies proper precaution.
Recently The Enquirer has beer
asked whether or not young men who
are not twenty-one years of age at the
time Of the primary election: but who
will be twenty-one years of age before
the general election to be held or
Tuesday, November 5, have a right tc
enroll.
The rules provide distinctly for this
Any young man not yet twenty -one
but who will be twenty one before
November 5, will have a right to vote
in the primary election, provided he
has his name enrolled at the precinct
at which he desires to vote five days
before August 81.

According to our view of it Govern
or Blease's alleged threat to give
Charleston a metropolitan police sys-
TEN was a threat or a promise just as
the people down there want to take it.
1t was very like unto Governor Blease's
argument that because Judge Jones
voted against the Jim Crow car bill,
Judge Jones is in favor of social equal
ity." The governor cited Judge Jones's
record on the metropolitan police ques-
ton, drew the inference that because
the Judge was in favor of metropolitan
police then he is in favor of metro
politan police now and consequently a
Charleston vote for Judge Jones
would mean a vote for metropolitan
police. Along this line Of argument, If
Charleston gives Judge Jones ma
jority the logical inference, according
to the reasoning of Governor Blease
set forth, would be that Charleston
wants metropolitan police, and the
governor promises to follow the Will
of the majority. OF course everybody
knows that Judge Jones does not
stand for social equality and OF
course everybody knows that If
Charleston gives Judge Jones a ma
jority, it will not mean that she wants
metropolitan police. But aside from all
this, there seems to be very little to
this campaign outside of the effort of
both sides to put the other side in a
hole, and there is really very little in
il all to get excited about.

In discussing the Lorimer case one
day last week one of the senators who
had already voted to uphold the Illi-
nois man. undertook to make the point
that the senate is no proper forum in
which to try such cases as the people
have already reached a verdict, and
will not agree with anybody who diff
fers from them. He went on to say
that he had voted for Lorimer to re-
tain his seat in the first instance, and
he would>do so again, even though il
cost his political life. There Is a good
deal to think about in what the sena-
tor has said; but his declarations are
not at all conclusive. If it is a fact
that after hearing the evidence, a ma
jority of the people have decided upon
the guilt of Senator Lorimer the prob
ability is that the verdict is about as
correct as any verdict that might be
reached by the senate.

Practical politics is the doctrine that
some level headed Prohibitionist is
preaching to the national convention at
Atlantic City, N. j. BY practical poll
tics is meant the kind of politics that
all politicians use to win. The average
citizen knows little of politics. He is
governed mainly by principles and SEN
timents which is all right; but with the
average politician, it is different. He
has an object and that object before
anything else is to win. He agrees
with all men in all things, and makes
the other fellow think he is the other
fellows way, in order to get the other
fellow to come his way. He promises
everybody everything and rarely keeps
faith with anybody in anything. OF
course the Prohbitionists must not al.
low themselves to fall into any such
practice as this; but they will do well
to fully realize the power of their DO
litical influence, and fight the men who
do not do their way. That is the line
upon which they can most easily make
themselves felt. But if the national
Prohibitionists allow themselves to be
deluded into an idea that they can ex-
pect anything of either of the two great
parties they are a long way from prac
tical politics.

LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES.

There Is growing concern about the
absence of legislative candidates from
the announcement columns of the
newspapers and people are going to
wonder whether there will be anybody
to vote for for the house of represen-
tatives this year.
Although quite a number of good
representative citizens have been talk
ed of for the position and although 1t
is generally understood that there are
several candidates who are seriously
considering on their own account the
idea of running for the house, still it
is a fact that there is very little do
ing.
1t is generally understood of course
that all entrees must be in by about
the middle of August or such date as
the county Democratic executive COM
mittee sees proper to fix; but which
date has not yet been publicly an
nounced and it has been suggested that
If there are no advance announce
ments, a legislative ticket will be en-
tered and qualified all in a lump at the
last minute.
Notwithstanding the slowness with
which individuals seem inclined to
throw their hats into the ring for the
fray. it will have to be admitted if the
matter reaches a point where there is
nothing to do but select four men and
let them run to certain election, there
will be no trouble in finding the neces-
sary candidates.

Fort Mill Times: Information was
received in Fort Mill Thursday of the
death Tuesday at Bristol, Tenn, Of
Mrs. Elizabeth Sturgis, wife of Mr.. Ben
A. Sturgis. Mrs. Sturgis' death was
due to paralysis from which she had
suffered for only few days. The bur-
ial took place Wednesday in Bristol.
Mrs. Sturgis was a daughter of the
late T. G. Culp and Mrs. Catherine
Culp, Of Fort Mill, and was born and

Of for the Encampment.
Rock Hill Herald, Wednesday: Five
companies Of the South Carolina Ma
tional Guard will leave Rock Hill next
Monday for the encampment at Annis-
ton, Ala. The companies from Ches-
| terfield. Liberty Hill and Fort Mill and
Winnsboro will mobilize here, in addi-
tion to the local company. The three
Regiment. The Winnsboro company,
Captain Doty commanding, belongs to
the Third Regiment, but was unable to
go to encampment with that regiment
several days ago, so 1t has been trans
ferred to the First Regiment, Third
Battalion. Quite an inspiring military
spectacle will be witnessed here when
the five companies mobilize. In COLI
nectiOn with the encampment at An
niston the newspapers today contained
an interesting story in regard to the
Talladega company Of the Alabama
National Guard. This company for
some reason declined to go to the en-
campment, and the result was that
regular army officers went to Talla-
dega, placed the entire company un-
der arrest. carried 1t to Admission and
mustered it out of service. Capt. Nc
Fadden Of the Catawba Rifles says this
shows conclusively that no trifiing will
be tolerated in the National Guard and
that there is likely to be trouble for in
dividuals who refuse to Join their COM
panies and go to the encampment.

day, as the result of being caught on a
trestle by the southbound c. e. NV.
passenger train.
The tragedy occurred at what Is
known as the Anthony branch, on the
southern outskirts of Gastonia. The
young man and young woman were
walking over the trestle, as the train
approached. In response to the warn
ing whistle blown by the engineer the
young woman jumped to the creek be-
low, while the young man fell between
| the ties.
When the train had passed over 1t
was found that the body of younp Per-
key had been mutilated beyond recog-
milton, and Miss Gibbie was lying on
the ground below with broken leg.
1t appears that the young man and
young woman were Of a party of four
out blackberry hunting. When they
came to the trestle two went across
and two went underneath. On the ap-
proach Of the train, those from below
shouted to those above to jump. Perkey
tried to beat the train across, and Miss
Gibbie jumped with the result stated.
Immediately after the accident the
engineer stopped his train and passen-
gers and crew went back to afford such
relief as might be possible. The in
jured young woman was taken to the
hospital and the body was removed to
an undertaking establishment.
Young Perkey was an emplOye Of the
Loray mill.

GOOD BUTTER BUSINESS.

Although this is the season at which
the butter business is generally at its
lowest, the butter fat receipts at the
Yorkville Creamery are growing heavi-
er, and the demand for butter is grow
ing stronger. In fact the creamery Is
having no trouble selling all the butter
it can make.
Mr. Norris the manager said We'd
nesday, that the output Of the cream
cry for only twelve churning days
during June was 3.S40 pounds, an aver
age of 320 pounds the churning.
During the last week Of June the out
put was 800 pounds and during the
first week of July it was 1882 pounds.
A number of new milk customers
have dropped in lately and the demand
for the output of the creamery Is in
creasing steadily.
Heretofore the creamery has been
selling butter to customers at practi-
cally the same price as to other people:
but Manager Norris has decided to
make a trial of new plan like this. If
the customers will bring all their cream
to the creamery instead of keeping
back what they need to churn for fam
lily use, he will give them to the eX-
tent of the domestic requirements a
pound of butter for pound of butter
fat.

The efforts that the attorneys of Joe
Malloy, the negro who murdered two
little boys in Marlboro county about
TWO years ago, are making to save his
neck, are the very sort of thing that
bring the courts into disrepute, defeat
justice, incite the people of lawlessness
and furnish an excuse for an appeal to
lynch law. There is no doubt of the
guilt of the negro, but his attorneys of
whom Mr.. w. F. Stevenson, of Cheraw
is the chief, are trying to prevent the
sentence of the court being carried out
by setting up the technical plea that
at the time the crime was committed
the penalty for murder was hanging
and that since that time the legislature
has changed the law and made the
penalty electrocution. This is the most
t1imSy excuse, the most far fetched
and indefensible attempt to defeat jus
tice that we have heard of in a long
time. 1t Is to be hoped that the su-
preme court will throw the appeal out
of court and put it's stamp of disap-
proval on such practice in no uncer-
tain terms. This sort of practice makes
the law game of chance and the court
house a place where Justice is not ad-
ministered.-Sumter Item.
We submit that our contemporary.
the Item, while up to date in most mat =
ters. is somewhat old fashioned in re-
gard to the subject discussed above.
In former days the sole issues in a
murder case were whether a defendant
did the killing, and if so was he justi-
fable or eXcusable; but all that is
changed nowadays. When a lawyer
takes a murder case, as a common
thing. the question at issue is not so
much the guilt or innocence of the ac-
