said they endorsed my course. But,
gentlemen, there has been a great deal
of hard work and worry in it all
and there has been no pleasure
in it, except in seeing the poor fel-
lows free-there is wonderful plea
sure in that. Many cases have been
brought before me in which had to

has been said about me-if you Will
pardon personal reference-some-
times | have gone to the window and
turned my back to my office and look

you should pay the members a suffl-
cient salary that they may give their
time and attention to it. The members

for recommending clemency in certain

they were certainly not performing a

Concealed Weapon Law.
respectfully recommend that you
repeal the law against carrying wea-
pons, or that you amend it by author
izing the clerk of court Of each county
to license persons making application
to him, and upon payment of a fee Of
IS, to carry pistol for such leasth
of time as the said clerk may fix, no.
to exceed thirty days under any one
license. My reason for this is that
the present law is farce. You know
this; it is common knowledge. Ne
groes and some others habitually car
ry pistols, and then when they get into
a difficulty they shoot down the law
abiding citizen, who is unarmed ard
not in position to take care Of himself
against the coward It would be a good
idea also, in my judgment. to require
the clerk of court to publish the
names of the licensees, and to in
crease the punishment for violation of
the law, providing that person con-
yicted Of carrying a concealed weapon
without license be imprisoned for 12
months at hard labor, without fine,
and applying the receipts from license
fees to the special enforcement of this
law, in addition to the regular machin-
cry Of the law which we now have.
further recommend that you make the
same punishment of Imprisonment
without the alternative of a fine apply
to those convicted of selling pistols.
