We are glad to see our letter box so full this week, even if some of the letters were written last year. While we don't undertake to iudorse all our correspondents may write, we give all a hearing. We hope the people of the county will feel that the Journal is their paper, and write to it often er. Taxes. Taxes. Taxes. Mr J Editor: We hear a great deal of complaint about taxes being so high; and after looking over the financial statement in the Journal, we are not sure but the complaint ia well founded. We were - surprised at the number of j "stay at home paupers." We have a poor house and the county poor ought to be sent there. These paupers, as a general thing, are not often benefited by the claims I 11 .1 I T ntn VintrA f rn XT f Via """vvcu, auuu wo rJ expenses ot keeping a poor nouse, let,g make use of it. Another thing that surprises us is the na ture of some of these pauper claims. We wonder if the com missioners are aware that they are navinff a nairner claim for a i v person that makes a good "field hand, and does not even live with the one who gets the pay! An other . thing that surprises us is the large amounts expended for repairs of our old tumble down county buildings. We notice that there was expended lor repairs at the poor house last ending No vember 30, $133.90 aud at the Court House something over $30. We expect that if this repairing had been done for any individual member ot the board ot com mis- siouejs it woo id nave oeen a one at a much less cost Another fraud is the stock-law fence business. And we think the commissioners should be more careful about this matter. No doubt they are imposed upon. Some one will make a dozen rails, and nail up an old gait and the commissioners are made believe he has done a "big job," and pay him five or ten dollars of our "hard got" tax money. Last year there was levied as stock-law tax $511.76, which would pay for making and putting up 51,176 rails at $1 per hundred. These are small things, but little by little the rats cut the cable. : Let's lop off every little expense we can and see if our county can't be got in abetter con dition. I see in the JotfKNAL that our next court is in 1990, a little over 100 years. Is this the millennium so much talked about! C.E.J. Glade Creek, Dec. 24, '89. Prohibition v. s. the Times. Mr. Editor: Please give uProhi bition" space in your paper for a few thoughts in respect to some violations of law in our county. I have thought that no statute is oftener violated than the law forbidding the sale of liquor to minors; and yet there are no pros ecutions. After looking over the jury list for our next Court, I be gin to think I see a part of the cause, as some of the jurymen are not Qualified under the law. As I understand the law, a man must be of good moral character before he is entitled to be a juror; and before a man can be a moral man he must stop getting drunk and selling spirits to miuors. If I un derstand morals it means obedi ence to moral law. So long as our Commissioners put drunkards and wilful violators of law in the to be enforced. Men who don't obey the law will not enforce it.
