COUNTY OFFICES.
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.

The Winchester Sun has written a
lengthy editorial commenting on the re-
port made by the grand jury at the last
session of the circuit court held in this
county. In this editorial it assails very
strongly Judge w. r. Shackelford and
charges that the delinquinces complain
ed of by the grand jury are due to him.
In order that our readers may under
stand the situation we reproduce the ed
itorial
ILLEGAL SALE OF LIQUOR IN MADISON
COUNTY.
Since being informed through the re-
port of the Madison county grand jury
of the illegal sale of liquor in that coun-
~, we have to stop and wonder, if the
saloons IN other counties of the State are
ever closed, if such will be the case. 1t
seems that there is some one in Madison
county neglecting his duty, or has not
the courage TO stand for what is right
and enforce the law. 1t is possible for
bootlegger 10 sell his goods for short
time. but if an effort is made by the
proper officials it would seem that this
violator would soon be brought TO JUS
tice. In any event he would not be SO
bold if he knew he was being watched
by officers Of the law. In the report OF
the grand jury we find that whisky is
being sold almost openly at places near
the courthouse and near many of the
churches, which is not only a disgrace
to Madison county, but such fragrant vi
olatiOu OF the law in a county casts a re-
Election on the whole State.
The stamping out of the illegal sale oil
liquor is serious proposition and it is
hoped that if the saloons are ever put
out OF Winchester that we will have
strong, determined men, who will see to
it that the law is respected. We believe
that the county officials in Madison have
been largely responsible for the state OF
affairs that now exists there. They
should have used all their power to see
that no liquor was sold, but from the re-
port OF the grand jury it seems that they
are doing nothing 10 stamp it out.

judge of that county, is seeking to be

Bar Association Terms
Frank LYnching SaYagery

Salt Lake, Utah, Aug. 19.-For the
first time in its history the American
Bar Association has put itself on rec
ord in the matter of an individual
crime. At a meeting here this morn
ing the association unanimously passed
the following resolution concerning the
lynching of Leo NJ. Frank:
1.-THE members of the American Bar
Association, in annual meeting, have
been profoundly shocked by the report
in the newspapers of the wilful and
deliberate murder, by mob violence, Of
a convict under life sentence in State
penitentiary.
This crime appears to have been
concerted and accomplished in a spirit
of savage and remorseless cruelty, I'M
worthy of our age and time. Thus to
seize and Stay helpless prisoner, ex-
plating, according to law, the crime of
which he was convicted and while he
was in the custody of public officials
charged with his detention, is not only
10 commit an act of wanton savagery,
but to make a fragrant and shameful
attack upon the law and it's ministers,
tending to weaken all just respect for
its administration and we'll calculated
to promote lawlessness and anarchy.
at is resolved that we desire here to
record our unreserved condemnation Of
the outrage and we trust that those in
authority will speedily bring the guilty
parties to the bar Of public justice,
there to receive such punishment as
their grave crime demands"
The resolution was passed despite
the objection Of T. A. Hammond, rep
resentative for the general council for
Georgia.
