practically the same charge he
made in Hardin county, which
was published in The Progress
some weeks ago. He stated
that the new act authorizing the
work of eradication of the Texas
cattle fever tick, did not bridge
the Act of 1907, which gave the
combined Federal and State au-
thorities, represented by inspec-
tors, full power to enforce cattle
quarantine and to disinfect ami
mails and premises. The judge
said that we might noe see the
use and wisdom Of the work of
dipping and other means Of dis.
injecting the cattle but that Af-
ter the expenditure Of much
money the government, Federal
and State. had settled on a plan
and that nothing remained to
the good citizen but to obey.
He said in substance that the
regulations promulgated by the
inspectors are the law and made
known his regret that Hender-
son has been the only county in
this section under the quaran-
tine regulations to resist the
laws enforcement with violence.
The Judges whole charge wac
full Of force and with that was q
kindly appeal to his people to
help in obedience to and en-.
forcement Of the law.

I On the liquor question the
the judge amplifed his charge
in regard to the sale of intoxi-
cants. There is now no such
thing as getting license to sell
intoxicants within four miles of
a school house and the payment
Of the special tax to the Federal
government is prima facia evil
dence thas the person paying
such tax is guilty Of selling.
The question Of whether certain
liquors will intoxicate can not
be settled by the effect on ha-
bitual drinkers but by the effect
on normal man. Druggists are
not allowed even to sell medi-
cines preserved in alcohol to be
used az a beverage, however
good the medicine may be-.
He called attention to the fact
the sheriff had given the court
house q thorough cleaning aud
had provided spittoons, and that
the jury and all connected with
the court must help keep the
house clean--that public places
are required to furnish cuspidors
and that prolniscus splitting on
floors is forbidden by law. With
regret he stated that on last
Saturday night some person Or
persons had entered the nice
toilet rooms ia the courthouse,
provided By the County court,
and purposely 90 treated said
toilet rooms that they were tenn
porarily put out OF use. He re.
gretted that our county had in
it even one person so lost TO self
respect, so Low. down as to COM
nit such an act. He asked the
jury to Investigate the matter
and if possible find and indict
the offender or offenders.

Judge Barham's Charge,

Judge DdTHdHl > NiidISC'
Judge Barham's charge deliv-
cred to the Grand Jury Morday
morning was so plain and force
ful, so couched in language not
to be misunderstood that the
grand juror coull have left in
his mind no doubt or question OF
duty. His Honor covered the
usual matters EN- braced in the
Tennessee judges instructions
to his grand jury and other
statutes Of recent enactment
were made as plain. He was
strong on the issuance Of permits
by parents and guardians to mi
nors, to play pool or billiards.
lie stated that mo continuous
permit was allowed-that pa
rent or guardian could not give
a permit to play pool or billiards
on more than one occasion. he
defined the term knowingly
permit" as reference to know
ledge Of the age Of the person
playing.
The instruction on carrying
pistols and other forbidden
weapons was exceptionally plain
and the toy pistol also put un-
der the ban. In this connection
attention was called to the fact
that it is the duty of all officers
to report violations to the Grand
Jury and that those failing to do
so were themselves liza Bile to in
dictment.
The possible violation of law
by the jury commission naming
on jur;es persons seeking that
service was stated He charged
the duty of the jury in connec-
ton with the dog law, requiring
the registration Of female dogs
and the purchase Of collars for
them and said that the enforce
ment Of that or any other law is
not optional but sacred duty
with officers and juries. Viola.
tors must be indicted.
That part Of the Judges charge
relative to the anti.cigarette
law was especially strong. He
calls attention to the shipment
Of cigarette papers with certain
brands Of tobacco and said that
the merchant who did not i'm
mediately destry such papers
ought to be at once indicted
that the anti cigarette law ought
to be enforced and that it was
evidently flagrantly violated.
His statement that but one
county in the 18th Circuit
Madison--is enforcing the road
law, is startling. That there is
no lawful excurse for the exc
cradle roads Of this county,
which are now unusually bad for
this time Of year. According to
the Judge and the law, road
commissioners and overseers who
fail in their duty ought to be in
dicted--and that mile.posts and
sign posts should be kept up for
the benefit Of the travelling pub
lie.
He jumped on the bawdy |
houss with both feet, as it were.
and made a vigorous protest
against allowed conditions--said
that a settlement near Lexing-
ton had become astench in the
nostrils Of decent people The
house owner and the baw.
dy house frequenter ought BY Gill
means be indicted for each and
every otfense. He said that the
owners Of property ought to
know the user to which it's ap-l
