FRIDAY, Sept. 19ih, 1913 A Thought For the Week An optomist is a man who can scent the coming harvest while the snow is on the ground, a man who can lije in the sunny days of June even .while he is in the dingy days of December; a man who can believe in the best even in the arrogant and aggres sive presence of the worst. J. H.Howett. A Model Judge. Do you know Judge Frank Carter? He is a man of a most extraordinary personality. As a judge, he presides with dignity and dispatches bussiness. He has a high sense of duty to the public, stays on the job and tries the cases on the docket, in the meantime, takeing care of the county. He permits the public to bear very little of the costs in consequence of crime committed in the jurisdiction of his court. In meeting out punishment to those convicted of offenses a gainst the law his judgments are just; too, he often puts into them the element of mercy. It was said of one of the great men of this nation that "he never abus ed his powers except on the side of mercy." We believe in a judge, vested with wide discre tion, who in the exercise of, that discretion takes into account the weakness of human nature and remembers that we are all of the same great family; that none of us are infalible and that in the worst of us there is some good. " The great power with which the law vests a judge, in a great many instances, may be exercis ed in such manner that it blights lives, vanishes hope to the un fortunate and crushes the help; less. " Hcmetimes the judge can .. say 'a penny and the costs." sometimes he can say ' four months or thirty years." A man vested with such power over our lives and property ought to be a man 'of honor and intergrity looking, always, to the welfare of both the state and the indi ' vidual being dealt with; this we belie e-Judge Carter to be. In the two weeks spent with us" he has had to deal with those hard priori in nffansps acainsfc the law. those guilty of their first offenses, sQme.in knee pants, some 'in the first 'years of manhood, some mature in years and finaly, wom ' en convicted of crime. Offenses i have ranged all the way from simple trespass to manslaughter. In , dealing out justice to all of " these various violaters who were convicted we think he made few mistakes if any. Hearing of Habeas Corpus Case .7.:W. M. fVidv thr.iucrh his' at torney Geo. M. Pritchard has in stituted Habeas Corpus proceed ings to gaiu custody of his gran i child Meliie Cody whose father and mother are both dead. The Court heard the witnesses ou be half of the., petitioner,-. W, M. Cody on Saturday last, and con tinued the hearing of the matter -to be heard at Asheville on Fri , day of this week. - ' ' . MelHe Cody.is a bright faced fem'i' ; thiU and there i a lively -crstc-t ever her custody.'.-, Special Meeting of Commissioners The County Commissioner's Court was in session on Wednes day to receive bids for the good roads bonds. There were three bids to be considered but no sale has yet been consu mated as all the bids were upsatisfoctory the commissioners. The court adjourned to a later day to re ceive and consider bids. The bond market has not been in the very best condition since the bonds were issued. We hope the market will soon be in better condition ard that a satisfactory deal will be put through. The fifty thousand issue previously sold will enable work to begin on the roads as soon as arrange ments can be made to begin. There were but two Civil cases, except one divorce case, tried by jury during the term, they being the cases of Joshua .Gosnell again st the Southern Kailway Company and John Bucknor against the Madison County Kailway Com pany. In the former there was a verdict for the defendant, in the later a verdict of $500.00 for the pli i itiff . In each case the plantlffs were sueing for personal injuries The Buckner case had been on the docket for a good while and was one of the warmly contested cases of he term. The plaintiff was represented by E. Zeph Ray, Thos. Rollins and J. D. Murphy, the defendant by Guy V. Roberts and Alf Barnard. The defendant appealed from the verdict of the jury to the Supremo Court. r Let's Have a Clean Town. Every yard ought to be clipped, every back lot well raked and cleaned and the streets and al leys cleaned once a week. These little dirtv holes where all kinds of trash, such as watermelon rinds and the like are thrown to rot are dangerous to the' health of the town. They ought to be kept clean and we ought to have a stringent ordinance against throwing things that decay and rot around between houses and in the cor ners, and the ordinance ought to be strictly and persistently en forced. Its easier to make a sani tary town and keep it that way than it is to pay the expense of disease. A clean town compells the re spect of the stranger; the adver tisement it's worth the cost, but most of all a cleanly town is us ually a healthy town. Hookworm Disease Treated Free, Madison County Commissioners co-operating withlhe State Board of Health, will conduct temporary Dispensaries for the examination and treatment of Hookworm di sease.- -. -. : Dr. John. Collinson, of the Stafo? Board of Health and Dis trict Director for Hookworm Di sease, will bo ; in charge of the Disnetisaries, assisted by'' Mr. Robert Taylor, Microscopist.

Its a splendid chance to try your hand at composition. In Good Condition. Mr. N. B. McDevltt, Cierk of the Superior Court, handed us the certificate of the Solicitbr in which he says in reference to the county offices that he finds them especially neat and insanitary condition. And the books and the records neatly shelved. , We have understood that the Judge passed very high compli ments on the condition of the offices. ,. ' Work to Begin at Once. Madison County is now assur ed of a good number of the State convicts to work on the National Highway which will lead thro' this county. The order for the convicts to proceed to this county was made on September third and they will be on hand just as soon as the local road authorities can . pre pare headquarters for themv The stockade will be located on Brush Creek about midway be tween Darnard and Marshall and will work from that point toward Marshall and Walnut. A Card of Thanks. Will you spare me space in the columns of your paper for a few lines as a Card of Thanks to the good people of Madison County for their kindness that they have shown and done to and for; me and my family through our ip.ng siege of sickness which we have went through with this summer. As we are all on the mend at present writimg. I f uther fmoro want to thank the good people of; my settlement, for the goodness and kindness and hospi tality shown and done in the death aud burial of my little girl Nellie, which the dreaded fever taken from our midst to the home beautiful which the Lord has prepared for her. My heart cannot' express the gratitude and thanks to the good people of my settlement and that not only this settlement but oth ers all over Madison County. The writer is just so he can sit up and there are five more of my family that is to be looked after yet. And I further more want to thank the good people of Asheville, N. C, for their kind ness.
