after a busy session of six days.
Judge Carriers instructions to
the grand jury seems to have
been fruitful ofresults, as that
body returned rs indictments be-
fore they were discharged.
Only one felony case of any i'm
portance was tried and that was
the case of the Commonwealth
of Kentucky Versus Alva N,
Ellis, who was charged with
Malicious shooting and the jury
in considering the testimony
under the instructions of the
Court reduced the offense to
shooting in sudden heat and pas
sion, and fixed his punishment
at fine of two hundred dollars.
John Sweeney, a colored man,
came into court and confessed to
a charge of grand larceny and
was found guilty by the jury
and sentenced by the court to
confinement in the penitentiary
for a period of from one to five
years under the Indeterminate
Sentence Law.
Tom Miller who was convicted at
the last term of court on charge
of seduction, and who appealed
his case to the Court of Appeals,
and the judgment of this court
having been affirmed, and the
mandate having been filed and
recorded at this term, the said
Tom Miller was conveyed to the
State Reformatory at Frankfort
on last Wednesday by W. I.
Brown, Sheriff of Casey county.
Casey county is getting to be
a good example for the rest of
Judge Carriers district. There
is no murder cases on the docket
and everybody seems to be quiet
and orderly, and what violations
of the law that occur are by per-
sons living out in the country.
and are for minor offenses.
The only thing that does not
suit me up here is that there
is not as many Bull Moosers'
as there are in Columbia.

The people of Jamestown and

made sad early last Thursday
morning, the 10th. by the an
nouncement of the death of Mr..
Harvey Holt. The death angel
called a t about a o'clock an d

gave it.
Among the last words spoken
by him were: 81 am going to
Heaven.
He professed faith in Christ,
joined the Christian church and
was baptised early this year.
When he was able to 90 he
attended the Sunday School and
enjoyed reading and talking on
the scriptures.
He leaves a wife, one daugh-
ter two sons, four brothers and
one sister, besides a host of rela-

loss. While we all regret hav-

Scores Ring Dictation

Pleading for the nomination ane
election of progressive Democrats al
members of the State Central Commit
tee and Delegates to the State Conven-
ton, that progressive views may prevail,
State Senate Blair Lee, Democratic can.
didate for the short-term United States
Senatorship, addressed the progressive
Democratic voters of Anne Arundel at q
mass-meeting held in Annapolis Tues
day night.
It was Senator Lees first real politi-
cial speech in this campaign and he
made it plain that the fight of the pro-
| gressives is as much to depose State
| Treasurer Murray Vandiver from the
Craftsmanship of the State Central Com
mittee as it is to knock out ''boss"
| dictation of local affairs in various Sec
tons of the State.
The ring of Prince Georges County
and the ring of Anne Arundel County
stand for the same thing, the retention
of the present state organization. The
ring of Baltimore City is the same.
The silly purvile letters, that appeared
| in the county papers, advocating Mr..
| Holmead and criticising Mr.. Carter
Bowie are intended to conceal the
| real issue and draw attention to few
| non-essential points. Stand with the
progressives who led the fight for Hon.
Blair Lee and Hon. Woodrow Will
son. Men who fought so desperately
| for Mr.. German and for Mr.. Clark
| and are entitled to your votes unless
you are willing to lose all thas has
been gained. Stand for progression
not for retrogression. Do not be de-
ceived by the puerile trashy articles
o;r hx,r IN, tho Go0offo Mr.
Bowie and his whole family have lived
their whole lives in Prince Georges
County, You know them. Mr.. Holmead
is recent conner.
Mr.. Bowie and his whole family are
heavy taxpayers. Does Mr.. Holmead
pay any taxes? Go look at his record
in the Commissioners Court, read the
articles and tell us if he is not better
fitted for a referee in a ''prize fight"
"cock fight" or ''bull fight" in
stead of the Senate of Maryland. The
dignifed, honorable training of Carter
Lee Bowie is in broad contrast to the
whole training and conduct of Mr..
Holmead.
Mr.. Holmead has been contradiction
all through. He pretended to be a
friend of Mr.. Blair Lee in 1911, but
as far as we know he did nothing but
spend Mr.. Lees money, and ride in his
automobile, and at the same time aid
ing in every way those who were fight
ing for Mr.. German against Mr.. Lee.
Let man be a man. Let there be no
double dealing. Give US man who by
education and training is fit to repre-
sent us in the Senate of Maryland, and
let Mr.. Holmead continue to amuse
himself with prize fighting if he de-
sires.
