There are three ways used by far-
for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and flue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called flue cured. In flue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing

stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other brands
of high grade, flue tobaccos.

GREENVILLE PITT COUNTY. NORTH CAROLINA. FRIDAY
MR.
of One of Pitt's
for Jury Reform.
The argument made by Mr.
of Pitt in the
house, yesterday in the debate n
the Parsons bill to give the State
an equal chance with the
In capital cases, was high-
complimented by the
as well as advocates of the
bill. In the course of his
Mr. Laughinghouse, said
in part, and said
Mr.
bill my earnest and
support, because I consider
it wise legislation, much needed
legislation, and a step in the
right direction towards securing
fairer criminal trials in our courts.
This bill, if it passes will be pro-
of good results in the
more certain conviction f the
guilty and acquittal of the
innocent. For many years I
have been an of this
kind of legislation I have long
ago been convinced that under
our present system of court trials
in capital especially with
reference to the large number
of challenges
lowed defendants and the very
NO.
there was any reason for this
provision, the long, ions
ago when a defendant could not
testify in his own behalf it does
not exist now and has not for
ranks. Whether this is because
the are always best fitted to
till our highest positions and
have the highest claims to re-
cognition I have no desire to dis-
cuss, but it does show that the
many years. There is no people bear no prejudice and I Trial
for its continued
It should be stricken out
want to say I share with them in
that generous feeling. Some
our law books and we should my best friends belong
sub what right, sensible I great profession, and on many
and just in its place. Only a few occasions I have gladly given
w ks ago a Superior court judge my best support to some
holding court In lawyer in his am-
my county in his charge to the I for political honors
grand jury called attention to But all lawyers are not alike
this very matter in forcible in character, nor do they practice
stating that it was an the same virtues. There are
reasonable to allow
challenges and on
lint of it the task was quite
difficult, and often an impossible
one to convict guilty men His
charge the time was reported
at some length in the columns of
the Greenville Reflector, an able
excellent newspaper, and wish I
had a copy at hand of that issue
of the paper so I might read to
you Judge Meal's timely words on
this subject.
We can understand of course,
the advantage it is to an
appealing for a defendant
in a capital case to have the use
f peremptory challenges while
scrupulous men in their ranks as
we find s men in other callings
or pursuits of life A lawyer
who is lacking in honor and in-
who res to corrupt
practice to put money into his
pockets, is an evil in any com
His influence as far as
it goes is pernicious and

In fact it is rejected by many
eminent lawyers who take
position that first duty of
the lawyer is to the State, to

Trial by jury, Mr. Speaker,
has come down to us with the
approval of the centuries.
jury system is the m st
arid vital part of the
machinery, and yet in certain
cases jury trials are
j nothing less than a farce and a
l failure. This is not d to the
system In itself, but there-
suit largely of unfair and

Two years ago as a member of
this house I earnestly sought to
have a bill enacted into law re-
, the number of
challenges allowed defend-
ants charged with capital crime
and r the State and de-
on an equality in that
respect. It passed this house
but failed in the senate or as I
row remember was smothered
to death in the committee. It
failed because of opposition to it
by lawyers in that body I do
not mean to say that all the law-
senators fought it but the
preponderance of influence was
largely that way. I state this
because it is a fact and not that
I question their right to do , as
they choose.

as
people, to legislate for the pub-
lie good, to pass laws in the
interest of the many and not of
the few. to remedy defects, if
any exist, in. present laws so as
to make them effective and
serve the good purposes for
which they were intended. The
before us contemplates
changes and improvements
whereby fairer court trials may
be had in certain cases. The
of the Kill seem to me to
admit of no controversy and
should receive the hearty
val of every member of the
house. The State and a defend-
ant charged with capital crime-
should have the same and
rights in selecting a jury. Why

And right here, Mr. Speaker,
is a good opportunity for me to
say that I have sometimes been
misrepresented as well as mis-
understood as respects my
ion of and feeling towards the
legal profession.
I may be considered by some

It . ., el deeply the importance of .
tins kind of legislation. I be-
it will have a far reaching
for good. To defeat the
bill would mean to keep upon
the statute books a law that
shows unreasonable partiality,
rank and gross favoritism, to
men charged with capital crime.
I believe in laws applying equal-
with special privileges to
none, in trials under our jury
system. Let the innocent go
free, but let not the guilty es-
cape through the weakness or
partiality of any provision in our
laws.
To reduce the commission o
crime it must be promptly and
adequately punished To check
the crime of murder which seems
to have little fear in our state,
murderers must be convicted
and forced to pay the penalty.
When we make the number of
peremptory challenges lair to

in that the good results
will soon be seen in our courts by
the more certain conviction of
the guilty. By passing this bill

citizen of our State, and I for one
shall always feel proud of the
