ne october Term or the Clrs
cult Court convened here Monday
morning, and there was au un-
usually large crowd in attendance.
The Grand Jury was impanneled,
with Mr.. B. H. Bynam, of Ses>
sums, as foreman. Following
this, the two petit juries were inn
panneled, after which the clerk
called the roll of county, beat and
municipal officers, as required by
law.
AS soon as the juries were all
organized and it was ascertained
that all officers were present,
Judge Carroll proceeded to deliver
his charge. He prefaced his
charge by stating that what he
had to say was meant, not merely
for the grand jury, but for every
official in the county. He urged
upon the grand jury the import
ance of their position, the respon.
sibilities that rested upon them,
the necessity for fair and impair
tial action ON their part in the en-
forcement of law, and his earnest
hope that they would wipe out all
distinctions between friend and
enemy and proceed with their du,
ties strictly upon the principal of
duty and irrespective of oil per>
sonal feeling. He likened tic
grand jury to the right arm of the
Court, the part Of the machinery
designed for the purpose of reach,
ing out after crime-the part that
puts the entire machine into &C
ton. And in view of the great
Importance of this arm of the
Court, he urged that each and
every individual of the grand jury
do his duty to the very best of his
ability. g.
His Honor discussed the liduor
law at great length. He urged a
careful and thorough examination
of the records kept of all orders
for intoxicants, and instructed the
grand jury to see that the express
companies had made full reports,
and then to follow out any
clues such reports might lead to
as to the existence of blind tigers.
In connection with the charge On
| this point, the Judge stated that
he had made an investigation of
the records. The law has been in
force for only one year, so tie
best comparison that could be
made was between the months OF
April, 1914, and April, 1915, and
this shows marked decrease in
the amount OF whiskey ordered
However, it appears that this
county is spending an average OF
ST., 100000 month for whiskey
and Starkville and Maben are the
principal purchasers. The evi
effects of strong drink were dis.
cussed at length from moral
physical and financial point o.
view.
The questions of gambling ant
vagrancy were also given specia
attention by the Court, in strons
and positive manner. In the out,
set, he stated that if there were
man on the grand jury. VIII,
thought that he might be smbar
rassed in the least by haying rela
tiyes or friends who might b,
subject to indictment, he woult
excuse him from service. He al

luded to the fact that in all towns
there were some men who were
always well dressed and we'll fed
but who do nothing toward earn
ing Il living, unless gambling
could be termed earniug a living.
He said that it was the sworn duty
of the grand jury to investigate
these characters, and to indict
them if the result of their investi-
cations warranted it, regardless of
who they were.
All other infringements of the
law were touched upon. Refer
ence was made to roads and the
methods of working them. The
Court said that if man contract.
ed to do piece of work for $50. 90
he should be paid the $50 90 when
the work was finished according to
specifications, and not advanced
$4,000 before the work is finished.
He made special reference to the
vast sums of money that are soon
to be expended in this county on
roads, dipping watts and other
public improvements. He said
that the flood gates of the treasury
were to be opened up and the
money spent lavishly, and that it
1t is the duty of the Supervisors
to see that it is spent legally. He
added that while we hear great
deal about the high cost of living,
the high cost of government is be.
coming question of vast import-
ance as well.
After the conclusion of this
charge the Court took q recess,
and Hon. John r. Tally was given
an opportunity of addressing the
voters in the interest of his can.
didacy for governor, and Hons.
q, j. Rencher, of Kemper county,
and M. "A. Saunders, of this city,
were invited TO present their
claims for the office of district az.

Mr.. Rencher first addressed the
voters present, and his address
was we'll received. He outlined
his policies in clear and concise
style, and made a favorable inn
preston. He was listened to very
courteously by his audiedce and
everybody agreed that he delivered
a good speech.
Mr.. Saunders followed and was
greeted by loud and enthusiastic
cheers from The host of his friends
who were there to hear him. In a
short but eloquent address he con-
vinced all present that his purpose
is to give this district the same
painstaking service in the future
as he has in the past, and that his
work in the courtroom during the
short term he has held the office

Mr.. Tally made profound i'm
preston upon the voters and no
doubt created some following in
this county.
Immediately after dinner an op-
portunity was offered all other
candidates to announce themselves
who desired to do so. Among the
prominent aspirants for high oflic,
