TERM
DISTRICT COURT

oepteHOtT term VI tne ocurTy county
District Court.
They found the citizenship very
much engrossed In crop gathering
and practically none but those who
had been summoned were here to see
the judicial mill start, and some OF
them came with supposedly good and
valid reasons why they should be ex-
cused.
The docket is very light. scurry
county people are good to pay their
debts when they can and creditors are
disposed TO be lenient so that there
are not many civil suits. Then again
this country is famed for conjugal
happiness, or at least forgearance and
the divorce mill has about as much
to do as a New England cotton mill
will have in few months. unless the
price Of cotton goes up.
As for crimlnality. there is so little
doing here in that line that we al
ways have Jail room to let for pris-
oners from other counties.
Owing to the press Of farm work.
the court is being asked to pass the
Jury cases and he will probably do
so.

Ing into specific instructions and they
