Other Changes Suggested.
TALLAHASSEE. Fla, Oct. 9.--Recom-
mendation that the state legal code be
amended so that ma jority' verdicts in
both criminal and civil cases would suf-
fee, was contained in the report of cir
cult judges who met here at the call of
Governor Cary a Hardee, to formulate
a proposed revision to the legislature at
/ its next session.
The judges recommended that in cases
where a jury of u men is required. the
verdict of II be accepted while in panels
Of six men, the opinion of five should pre-
vail. Under the present state law, all
except capital cases are tried by iuries
of six men.
Another recommendation deals with
present procedure under which a Judge is
automatically disqualified in a case
where two electors sign atffdayits that
he is prejudiced. The judges suggested
determining whether he would be allowed
to sit in judgement of himself in de
termining whether he would be preju-
diced if the allegations set forth in the
two afidavits were true. As an effort to
thwart the freeing of law violators on
teChnicalities. the judges conference pro-
posed that the state be given the right
of appeal from the judgement of lower
courts where cases are dismissed on de
murrer. quashed indictments, or the like.
The provision in the code that counsel
for the defendant shall have the last argu-
ment before the jury when the defendant
does not take the stand. would be elimin-
-ated in the proposed changes. The con
ference also adopted Governor Hardee' <
suggestion that the jury election method
be Stabilized by establishment in each
county of jury commission who would
draw up for prospective Jury service the
names Of not less than 300 nor more than
800 qualified male" persons 1t Is with
view to improving the personnel of
juries.
No provision has been made in this
state as yet for service on juries by
women.
The present law aIso would he
amended to allow the removal for trial
TO another county Of criminals when. in
the opinion of the governor. circuit jndge
or sheriff. fair trial would NOE be &C
, corded in the immediate community.

HOG SEASON
IN FULL SWING
Many Sales VIII Be Held In
South Georgia This
Month

MOULTRIE, Sept. 27.-The South
Georgia Hog Season" opened this
week. Receipts at the big stock
yards here are expected to be heavier
between today and Saturday night
than they have been during any
tmonth through the summer season.
In many sections of the state hog
ksales are announced for this week.
kSwift and company have been asked
to submit bids at number of points
1 Recently the opening Of the fresh
pork season has resulted in many
new bidders attending the hog sales.
| The butchers in big Southern cities
{ are buying in car lots. Recently
. representatives of these butchers
have been among the most active
: bidders at the cooperative sales.
A survey of the Georgia, Florida
and Alabama hog territory made by
live stock buyers here reveals that
there will be a large increase in the
number of hogs in Georgia and
IOIlu over ldSJ season DuJ q ldlt-
ing off in Alabama. There is also
found to be a short crop Of feed
which probably will mean that the
hogs will be moved to market sooner
in the season than usual. Hogs sold
will be lighter than last Season when !.
they were notably heavy. There I
also is the probability that there
will be more than the usual number
OF pigs placed on the market and the /
state college, county agents and live I
stock clubs already have started
movement to discourage the sale of
pigs by pointing to the financial fol
ly of such action. They will make
an attempt to find feeds in each
county to take the surplus pigs and
finish them, keeping what is consid-
cred to be the easiest money in the
hog business in the South.

his time. IIo was great In that respect which
engendors no strife, sets afoot no controversies.
great preacher. he was unostentatious in the
practice Of those virtues he advocated. great
editor. he was acclaimed such because Of his
generous attitude towards others and his con-
sistont policy OF supporting constructive under
takings instead Of taking the role OF an ire
sponsible critic.
a few months before his death Doctor Abbott
issued IA book setting forth his conception OF
truo Chrlstlnuity and religion. Standing well
beyond tho three ire ,and-ten mile post. with
his life behind him and realizing that he was
facing the curtain which Is raised but once
for every man and that none have ever soen
beyond while able TO report to their fellows OF
this world, he summed up his reflections by
the statement that religion is Haracter.

they could sleep later.

thing TO Cora--for luck, she ex-
planned. SO she Numbered her best

Cora insisted the girls go down in

Dalton, and he was so well behaved,
so genuinely pleased at the courtesy,
that both girls were delighted with

time they have gone out together.

and he told her his mother was an
