The Personal Equasion.

The Charleston grand jury on last
Friday rejected forty-two of the three
hundred bills of indictment which had
been handed over to 1t against alleged
illegal liquor sellers by Solicitor Puri-
foy on Wednesday, and gave the court
to understand that similar action was
to be expected in the other cases also.
The cases on which the solicitor
was expected to base indictments
were worked up by the Charleston
Law and Order league with the solici-
tor giving all the assistance in his pow
er, and to facilitate the work Of the
grand jury, the solicitor drew the bills
himself.
There seems to be no doubt as to
the probable guilt of the accused, and
no lack of testimony on which to es-
tablish that guilt before petit juries,
AS a matter Of fact, each case is back
ed up by records of the internal reve-
nue. department showing the payment
of the Federal retail license tax, which
evidence Is Of itself prima facie under
the statutes, and among the supposable
reasons why the jury is unwilling to
act are: Refusal of past grand ju-
rors to indict violators Of the liquor
laws; the fact that dealers are COM
monty regarded as paying license un-
der guarantee of protection, and the
fact that petit jurors would probably
acquit, regardless of the testimony.
In discussing the grand jury's atti-
tude in regard to the matter, Judge
Bowman is quoted as saying that there
Is farce" somewhere, and in this
his honor is no doubt correct.
Of course everybody understands
the general duty of a grand juror. He
takes an oath to report on all bills
without fear or favor, strictly III lc-
cordance with the law. The law says
it is a misdemeanor to sell liquor in 6
manner other than prescribed by the
law itself, and the grand jury has beer
offered abundant evidence to show
that the accused are probably guilty
of violating the law.
AS to whether a man may think Il
right or wrong for a county or a mu'
nicipality to sell liquor to the exclu'
sion of it's own citizens, or whether il
is right or wrong for state to under
take to say that an act which the
county can do without wrong is
crime in an individual, are not ques
tions for grand juries. The only bus
mess of a grand jury is to enforce the
law, and as wide as is the discretion
of grand jury, in all the history Of
English Jurisprudence, there has never
been any legal countenance Of the sug'
gestion that such discretion extends tc
the notification or suspension of 6
law.
While for reasons that are clear tC
the average individual who is more ol
less familiar with such matters, the
act of a grand jury goes for the act Of
all the members thereof, 1t would hard
ly be fair to say that all the individu.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1913-10-14

al members of this particular grand
Jury are guilty of disregard Of their
respective oaths, and neither would
we say that the action Of this Charles
ton grand jury is necessarily repre-
sentative of Charleston as whole.
It is not to be denied, however, that
as things now stand. the enforcement
of law in Charleston is in a bad way.
The powers that control Charleston
county politically have control Of the
drawing Of juries, and there Is very
good reason to infer that these grand
Jurors, or majority thereof, have
been drawn by the jury commission
ers largely with reference to how they
stand on certain questions Of law en-
forcement-especially the law as 1t
affects the tiger element. The situ-
alton we suspect, is about the same
that Woodrow Wilson fought for so
long in New Jersey-that situation
under which the gang drew jurors
both grand and petit-solely from
among their friends, so they could
maintain the same hold on justice that
they maintained on politics. ....
There is nothing the matter with the
theory Of the law In Charleston any
more than there Is elsewhere. The
trouble Is rather with the personal
equasion, the kind Of people who Sc
lect Jurors, and the kind Of jurors
they select, and until there Is a re-
adjustment In these particulars Char
lesion will continue in a bad way.

SuIzer Case Still Pendins.-The high
court Of impeachment which is consid-
ering the fate Of Gov. William Sui
zer at Albany, N. Y, failed to reach
an agreement yesterday.
After a session of an hour and a
half, virtually all Of which was held
in secret, the court unexpectedly ad-
journed until 11.30 o'clock today, to
permit further argument by counsel
relative to the testimony Of Allen A.
Ryan, Ambassador Henry Morgenthau
and Duncan w. Peck, superintendent
Of public works.
This testimony had to do with al
legged efforts of Gov. Sulzer to sup
press evidence against him and to OBJ
tain political influence to stop the
trial. The offenses alleged in this con-
nection were not specified in the arti-
cles of impeachment and upon the
convening of court yesterday Judge
Miller Of the court Of appeals raised
the question as to whether they fitted
in. The executive session at once
followed.

continues until March Is. The open
season for doves is now on, having
commenced on August 15. 1t will last
until March /, although there Is a
provision Of the statutes which makes
It unlawful for any person to cast
abroad on any field or other land,
grain or other food, as bait for doves,
for the purpose Of hunting doves be-
tween March Is and December 1.
Hence the open season for batting for
doves does not take effect until De-
cember 1.
For woodcock, the open season
commences September 1, continuing
until January 15; for willette, Novem-
ber to March /; for woodducks,
September 1 to March 1; for grackle,
October to March /. Violations of
the close season are punishable by
fine of $40 for each bird killed.
Among some Of the important pro-
visions Of the hunting laws, accord
ing to the code Of 1912. no person
is allowed to kill more than twenty
five patridges, twenty-five doves, or
two wild turkeys, during any one day
Of any one season. No person Is al
lowed to hunt on the lands Of anoth-
er without the owners consent; and
it is unlawful for persons to hunt
with fire in the night time. It is also
unlawful for any person to trap
partridges except on his own lands,
only by special permission Of the own
ers Of other lands.
The regulations Of the United
States department Of agriculture for
the open and closed seasons for mi
gratory birds, give the following closed
seasons for South Carolina:
Brant, ducks. geese. November 20
to February Is; rails, coots galli-
mules. September 1 to November 80;
woodcock, November 1 to December
81 (reducing the state open season) ;
black breasted and golden plover
jacksnipe or Wilson snipe, greater or
lesser yellowlefs, November 20 to
January 81. For the benefit Of thou
sands of inquiring sportsmen, 1t may
be stated that 1t has been decided
that doves are not covered by the new
Federal law, but may be taken dur
ing the open season provided by the
state game laws aa a'

STATE GAME LAWS

Huntsmen throughout South Caro-
lima are looking forward to the 18th
of the coming month, with consider.
able pleasure. This Is the date up
on which the season opens, according
to the state law, for hunting OF the
popular partridge, or as the state
statutes seem to prefer to call the
bird, the quail.
There are many restrictions and
regulations placed upon the sport OF
hunting, and all who are not familiar
with the provisions of the state law
are advised to get copy Of the code
of laws and learn what they can and
cannot do-otherwise they may fall
unawares into the clutches Of the
game wardens, and be hauled before
a magistrate.
In addition to the state laws regu-
lating the hunting Of birds and other
game, President Wilson has recently
approved the Weeks-McLean migra-
tory bird law, which places a number
Of other restrictions upon the hunt
ing Of certain birds. A comprehen-
sive plan for the enforcement Of this
new law has been made, though the
details have not been fully worked out
This plan contemplates the division
of the country into thirteen districts
each in charge Of an experienced in.
spector, and a force of about zoe
picked men, selected by the state war
den departments. Five inspectors
and about ten per cent Of the force
have already been appointed, though
these appointments, so far as can be
learned, do not include the district
which is to embrace the southeastern
states
The civil code of 1912. Of this
state, designates the following as
game birds, and does not permit the
killing of non-game birds except un-
der certain circumstances: Swans
wild geese, brant, wild ducks, rails
(marsh hens) coots, gallimules, surf
birds, curlew. wild turkey, prairie
chicken, quail, rice bird, blackbird
and dove. All other species Of wild
resident or migratory birds are con-
sidered as non-game birds.
The open season on deer, in this
state, begins on September l, and
continues until January 1. On part
ridge and wild turkey, the open sea-
son commences on November Is. and

Underwood and Hobson Lock Horn.

Representative Richmond Pearson
Hobson of Alabama and his colleague,
Majority Leader Underwood yester-
day engaged in a bitter debate on the
floor of the house over the senatorial
contest in their state, in which they
are rival candidates. The oratorical
duel was precipitated by Mr.. Hobson
reiterating utterances he made last
week in a speech at Wetumpka, Ala.
intimating that Mr.. Underwood was
"the tool of Wall stret and the liquor
interests" and charging that he had
gained Alabama's support in the last
presidential campaign through false
pretenses.
Cheers from Democrats and Repub-
licans greeted Mr.. Underwood as he
rose to reply, and later, when Mr.. Hob
son tried to interrupt, there were loud
cries of "Sit down, sit down; you've
had your time"
The climax of the dramatic scene
came when the majority leader, facing
about in his place, asked:
rs there any other man In this
chamber who believes the charge that
1 am or ever have been the tool of
Wall street,"
He was answered by shouts of No,
no." from both sides of the house.

By very close vote-111 to 1O6-
the house last Friday agreed to the
senate amendment to the urgent def
cheney appropriation bill, providing
for the removal Of deputy internal
revenue collectors and deputy mar
shals from the civil service regula-
tions. The income tax provision OF
the tariff law calls for large increase
in the internal revenue service, and
Democratic leaders have been insisting
that 1t would not do to compel execu-
tive officials who have to give large
bonds to select their assistants from
among men who may have no qualifi-
cation other than that they are able to
pass a civil service examination.
