PISTOL LICENSE Law ALMOST
WHOLLY IGNORED In COUNTY
Only Eleven Persons in Terrell Le-
gally Carried Weapons Past Year,
and They Are All Whites.

The state law requiring all persons
who carry pistol to register in the
ordinary's Office and give bond of
500 for their good behavior and that
the weapon will be used only for a
lawful purpose is almost entirely ig-
nored.
Ordinary Hoyl states that in 1918
only eleven persons secured license to
carry pistols, and every one of these
are white. Not single license was
procured by negro, although hun
dreds of them carry weapons.
The grand jury at the approaching
term of court win in all probability
look into the matter, and stir up
these violators of law that was
passed for the safety of the public.
