COIHTS CONGESTED
Anderson is growing lu litigation
ami in crime as will u * in material
matters of a better kind We have
Been for some time a discussion of
the merits of a bill proposed by Hen
ntor Wilton Ii Barle of Greenville
le divide this circuit and to group
Anderson with Oconee J Greenville
with Pit-kens. At iirst we gave little
thought to the proposition, hut up
on investigation we tind that the
courts are in a deplorable condition/
The grand jury of this county has
alrcudy turned In true bills enough
to keep petit juries busy for four
weeks. There are upon the dockets
cases against sellers of liquor und;
other malefactors that will never u?>|
tried. Tlcre i? a custom of dii?i>o8-j
ing of Jail cam firnt. and this leaves
the appeal cases and the liquor caa-j
os never to be heard. Some remedy
is needed. We have asked for in
formation on the subject -ind Solici
tor Proctor A. Bonham has furnished
u.s with the following statistics:
1 most heartily urge the pn?sage
of such a bill, for as conditions now
are it is Impossible to keep the calen
dars in Anderson and Greenville
counties any where near clear. The
criminal docketH especially have nev
er Muco 1 have been solicitor, which
Is now live years, been clear, and an
time goes' *0ti thev continue to get
more clogged.
"There nr.- now on the Anderson
docket more canes, with over ilf
ty new' indictments to be handed out
at the coming term. The Greenville
docket is in u similar condition. You
can readily t?eo what the result la.
The great majority of the cases can
not bo txied, for by the time the Jail
is cleared and the capital felony cas
c . tried the term is at an eud. By
the timo the next court convenes, the
same condition exists with the same
result. The conEcquence ' i? that
many casp3. which if they could be
promptly tried would net a return to
the county','are never reached for the
reason that the witness get scat
tered or the prosecutors so discour
aged they.jdrop their cn?^s.
"In the event that tho case is fi
nally tried and convicted, tho county
has been put, in all probability to
to' In costs than the fine
to. 4
"For the reasons above stated, dis
pensary cases in the two largo coun
ties are seldom ever tried, and nre
not disposed of unless the defen
dants agree to plead guilty, if a
small fine"'Is imposed.
"I know It to be true of Greenville
and I am Informed that in Anderson
too. if Is ten or twelve months bc
4sro s case- caa,- qjt reached on the
civil docketv i - ;
the circuit be divided, putting An
derson aud Oconee in one circuit,
and Greenvlle and Pickens In. the
other, tho additional expense Incur
red thereby wo'Ud be more than offset
by the prompt dispatch of business.
The ?t?te would be saved money and
the moral effect of a Bpeedy trial for
criminals would be a healthy and
beneficial one for tho community.
"I see by the papers that at at
tempt to establish a county court
may he made This in my opinion
will u?t bring tho relief needed.
First, because -the probability of tho
people voting It la alight, and second,
because it would not affect Ander
son county, which is as badly In
need of relief as Greonvlllo la."

Two Days.
Monday .iud Tuesday brought sev
eral coses up for attention In the
court of Margistrate Broadwell and
Judging from the lines placed on
those who dared stand the veat of
being arraigned bcloro this official,
It w ill be some time before they again
appear. In the cusc of Gus Hall, a
negro. Charged with being "V. and D."
which in translated for the benefit of
The Intelligencer s readers as stand
in,'; for having imbibed too freely In
do juice thnt exhllerutcu and there
upon besoming obnoxious to the cus
todians of the peace, a fine of $50
was lui] : ^ed. Gus managed to scrape
togethe: .he necessary amount and
went on his way, presumably n sad
der but wiser man.
. Henry Thompson, nlso of hiibky
due, appeared before the bni of jus
tice to show cause why he should be
sarrying around on his per/ion a min
iature guttling Rtir.. In o?'.ior words.
Henry was charged with carrying a
pbitol. It was found that he could
furnish no satisfactory explanation
as to why he should enjoy this de
cided advantage over his fellow men
and he was therefore forced to part
with the munlftcent kuiu of $?u which
Magistrate Mroadwell received with
thanks.
Charles O'Shlelda, a white man,
faced two serious chargea, these be
ing false representation and the ad
ditional matter of having wandered
away from tue domicile where he
hud been wont to sutiete the cravings
of tho inner man without having re
membered to remunerate in the coin
u? the reaim of the house Keeper of
the afore metj.ion stAbiishmcnt. It
seemed that O'Shields has siinply
bcat his board bill and since Mag
istrate Brcadwell was convinced of
tho guilt of the defendant he sen
tenced him to tho public works Tor 30
dayB. It is not thought likely that
he will have any opportunity to leave
his present ounrters with any board
bill unpaid.
Clayton Sloan, a negro, bad been so
unreasonable as to try to interfere
with an oftTcer when he hlmscir had
juBt committed an assault. Magis
trate Uroadwell looked upon this with
such displeasure that ho ' taxed the
defendant to the sum Of $100' and af
tor frantic search the defendant final
ly succeeded in locating the Iron men
and at once made room for some one
else In the temple of Justice. This
concluded the day's business.

THE CARRIER BOY
(Written by a Carrier.)
It takes lots of men in a newspaper shop,
: And all must keep busy or presses will stop.
The Editor's certain that he's the big noise.
! He looks more important than the carrier
boys;
He sits at a desk, and he bosses the works
! And keeps the gang jumpin' like so many
Turks.
But what is the use of his work in good shape
If the Carrie^ fails to deliver the pape?
The Reporters are pretty important young
chaps;
They write about weddings, hoss races and
scraps.
Of course they are needed to hunt up the
news,
But if you should ask for my own honest
views
I'd say the Reporter needs legs more than
brains,
For he spends his time running from hotels to j
trains.
But what good is all the Reporters can do
If the Carrier don't bring the paper to you?
The printers and pressmen- are all worth their
pay; !
They do their work well and with little to say.
They are needed at times, and so is the clerk
Who takes in the money, though that is not
work.
But the guy that's the real thing, the one who 1
cuts ice,
TU /-? ?'.,11m... i.rUni-a ..^1...-? s>n-n1\r Y\a -fi vr a A 1+ r\ B
price,
Is the one who begins when the others are
through
And hurries to bring the paper to you. 1
