MADE IMPRESSION

cred Forceful and Convincing
Charge to the Grand Jury

Recognized for his ability in Ander-
son AZ a turist, other towns and coun-
ties In South Carolina are learning
that there Is no more capable man
on the South Carolina bench than

ington and the following dispatch
aeeins to indicate that he has done
likewise at Saluda:
Saluda. Oct. 6.-Fall term Of

here Monday. with Judge Prince
OF Anderson presiding. Solic-
itor George Bell Zimmerman missed
connections and did not arrive in Sa-
luda till afternoon, Judge Prince in
the meantime devoting the morning
to delivering his charge to the grand
jury. :. =
without doubt Judge Princes
charge to the grand jury excited more
comment and made q more profound
impression than that OF any Judge de-
livered here IN years. No need for
hurry being apparent, on account of
tho solicitors absence. he took occa-
Blon to touch upon very nearly every
Z subject In which the grand jury has
Jurisdiction, and he flayed lawless-
asss.
Much of his speech was epigram-
matte. In the beginning he charged
the grand Jury with responsibility for
existing conditions. good or bad, as
regards Official affairs of the county.
Speaking Of the work OF the super
visor, in general vein. Judge Prince
said: "The supervisor should be the
I best business man In the county; the
other clerical work that he does for
the bsiness management OF the en-
tire county. He must issue all the
checks. but oftentimes is elected be-
cause he can, shake more hands or
tell more jokes. - II You have tho
right man, you do not pay him enough.
(, II you haven't such q man, you pay
( him; too much"
Your supervisor may wreck the
flnarEes OF your county. q poor school
superintendent may wreck the future
/ OF your children and your greatest
said In speaking OF the Importance
: Of education. Some counties pay
their suerintendent OF education 5000
while teachers in those counties get
$4,000 to supervise the schools Of ono
town or city"
Judge Prince called attention to
1. the need for Non teachers. Women
should teach the small children, but

tho ugo OF adolescence the girl and
boy both need the force, discipline.
/. viewpoint. and personal touch OF a
great man teacher But we. pay so
little for the service practically no
mea Will teach for the salary.
-" Lots OF people think their boy too
good and pure and angelic &c dn wrong
Z in achool," he said, In declaring for
rigid control OF pupils by teachers.
< But l was not when school boy;
!, You wore not: and II your boy has
sno mischief about him. he is a sissy,
and Sissy is no good"
II miscegenation- Is being

/ to have a decent wife and rear an

b "AnN nNillegal liquor ller is worse

Z unlawful liquor traffic. He also In
copclpsion said that f"God knew what
