Casts Now Session.

charge to the
grand jury delivered a
conversational and
about hour. He he
be able to a better charge
for publication or to he read
than be would perhaps deliver
in this way, his purpose was
to have only a plain talk with the
jurors, whose faces
they were men of intelligence,
and get them to help him carry
out the duties of the court,
than to appeal to gallery,
the bar or the press. He no
that his should be
praised as a fine charge, hut
only wanted to perform bis duty
and Not-
withstanding remarks by
sod the charge being
delivered just as he said. The
does not hesitate
speak of it as an excellent one,
for it contained many good Utter-
were- listened to
interest and had hi- effect
on the large assembly in the
court
Two laws that Judge Guion
referred to especially were the
one against carrying concealed
weapons and prohibition, be-
cause, he said, people were in-
to regard these as en-
upon rights- It
is not for men or juries lo nay
whether a law is good or bad,
but the laws as passed by our
representatives be en-
forced. Where men ignore tie
laws, that is classed as a lawless
community. The grand jurors
are of the law, and fail
to their duty unless
they help to carry out the laws
as they are. No man can say be
has the right lo violate the law
because the legislature should
not have passed such law. Nor
should grand jurors wink at a
violation nor ignore a bill because
they may think a law is not a
good one.
It is a mark or cowardliness to
carry concealed Men
are endowed with natural force,
and when they go beyond this
and slip weapons in their pock-
they do so with a full
edge that they are violating the
law, who are not willing
to live in a State under the laws
that exist, should go elsewhere.
As to prohibition, Judge Guion
said it made no difference what
individual opinion might be, the
people of the State said they
wanted it passed, it was passed,
and is a law, and our duty is to
enforce it regardless of what we
may think. The man who
the prohibition law is the
meanest kind of a criminal, as he
does it for the purpose of getting
gain from the sale of liquor. If
a steals a pair of shoes it
may be because he has none and
needs them, but he is sent to
the roads. There is no necessity
for a men selling liquor, and he
does so and for gain.
Another thing Judge
Guion referred to was in
i with a case he noticed on
I the docket for failure to work
I roads. He said he did rot know
what the road law of Pitt county
was, but he thought it a sorry
spectacle to see men out work-
the roads for two or three
days in the year when laborers
could be hired to do this work
them. No county will ever
be abreast of the times whose
citizens are not willing to pay a
j little tax to work and make good
roads,
Guion also expressed
bis pleasure at a facing Pitt
jury, though for the first
time, US It was a county in his
; district, and it filled him
with pride that the juries of his
eastern counties were
to any he had seen
in any section.
