 In his instructions to the Grand Jury Judge Naples laid particular stress upon the habit throughout this cgue- try, common among the men and boy Of carrying concealed weapons. anl he asked the Grand Jury 10 carefully investigate all reports of this viola tioa. Judge Aaples says that rotten ~hishev and pistol are a bad e1m. bin3t5on ald are responsible c far Hesf- ly all tae murd cases that come ae- fore tAe Court.
 He also paid particular attention b the present practice Of giving away cigarette papers and cigarettes. Judge Naples said that although there e#s q law, very stringent asainst such of= lenses, that neVert eless. cigarettes were still smoked, and that tEeZ pa. pers came rom somewhere, and should be investigated
 He passed lightly over the various of the Sunday closing law and said that it was as much a4iolaa ton to sell steam thrasher as | was to sell . cold drink
 He called particular attention ta the present practice of parties throughout the= eounty who takeZaR stray stock. There is la# tHat compelled the taker-up to post=a notice of sfleA esteays in the County Court. but t is violated. continually throughout 1tae= county, mostly 6y par. ties who were uninormed of the pro visions in sael eases made and pro vided.
 Judge Naples used quite bit of his time in instructing the Grand Jury as to the provisions of the State Health Law, which holds that farmers or stoekmen losing stock Of any kind by death, must bury the carcass at least three feet in the ground The three feet. Judge Ma. ples holds, betna from the top of the daad animal 10 the top of the ground. This law Is violated throughout this section xery frequently, and is tae cause of the spreading of diseases among the stock. Judge Naples also called the attention of the Grand Jury as well as al those present to the fact, that the Health Law permits the owner of dead stock to burn them This is a much better plan and does net necessitate such large amount of work. It is better to burn the stock than to bury it, and it is a sure relief from a spread of the malady. This law is flagaraHt- y violated by farmers and stoekmen. who are ignorant of the provisions, md who wonder later just what is killing so much of their stock as well IS their neighbor. Burn the animal Ind stamp out the disease, is the ad- vice of Judge Naples Judge Naples closed his remarks along this line by stating that a strict enforcement of he provisions of this law would save he farmers of Washington, Madison md Carroll counties $100 ,000 year ,n hogs alone
 Judge Naples called especial atten. :oin to the prevalent work through but the county by parties selling and also called attention to he new prohibition law which goes nto effect January 1st. This new aw will not stop the selling of vhis key, says Judge Naples. but will tend Q make the practice more liberal. The fight must be waged all the hard ,- into
