It is a wonder that Marshall has never pushed its claims upon the tourist class as a resort for the heated months of the year, There is no place more delight fully situated nor healthy and the number of visitors we nave had this summer testify that the visitors love the place. Every other town of any in these mountains has adver tised itself as the best resort with the most delightful climate and Marshall never has said a word. One .reason is that we have not enough hotels or hotels situated lyhere they would draw this class of visitors. The hotels here are" full but it is the travel? ing public and the town people, but if 4 we' should find someone who would put up a hotel hi . the suburbs of the town on,, any. of the mountain sides in any one of the magnificent view-points, the News is sure that a' large num ber of people would be attracted to our village. Our streets are to be well paved and our roads are to.be macadamized to the town limits and with the railroad and mail facilities. ihat: We have there is no reason hy btfr ttfwn should not be as popular resort as any in, this Land of the Sky, and if the visitors come once they will hot fail to coue again. Then tor the man. who wourd undertake, to build- a, hotel,, it would be a fine center to do bay ing for the table. fAJl tlfl farm products are to be founjd here; Eggs and chickens "and every thing needed for the culinary art is to be had at reasonable '' ..u,t quantities, X i u . ts In season can be found, and: even if not, there are markets near, enough to supply.- : Ev$n')iaw'h6tel peo; ple from other places come; to Marshall to buy for their houses. So eveiythmgispMBltioW'ex-l cept that man has not taken the initiative, ',? 'y:: . . f .-l; ; &v. It would mean - more- money spent here, business in every way would be benefitted and Marshall would become what she should be. If we could only get up a Marshal) Club whose aim would be to boom the town as a resork,. There are plenty of drives and when '.the power dam comes We will have a lake for boating and sailing and the Island could be made into a park .for tennis and baseball and recre- . ation. f- " ; W.'.: just turns: wnat we. could do were we but to try, jjeis mase Marsnau a asmmer Resort of the first class. : V A J l t it. . . -1 ' .

So let it be in all our . trans actions and so wHl it be if justice is done. -We .trust that punish ment may come to the guilty and. that be who has not offended may go free. No base ball as yet, society nas had its , day. in Marshall sure. Now ,,we can settle down to the Lecture course Would it not be a good idea to start a boom for . Marshall as a summer resort. Good air, good society, fine scenery. What more could you desire?

The parents, because the children will be under good hands and learning." The small boy is counting the days until he will be kept in study. How .quickly the days go by .at the , end of summer and how enticing the swimming hole. Work is play to the young maiden and she looks not forward to lessons. But then both parent and child still - look forward to the opening day. 0" ;The thojnghtoJen arises, What are we doing for our boys and girta? There is'nb doubt but thaJwhen jleft to themselves they-get into mischief and . learn ofttiihes what they should not. It is a serious qoest'on and we want young men and young women of good habits' and high ideals,' but they cannot get these m' themselves or "through ; the association . one . with another unless there Is some way to show them how. ' . Many of us older ones did not have a wise guid ance and we see the lack sow with regret. If it cannot be rem edied in us at least it can in the young anr we can mould the lives so that there . will be no' lack in them. ., The ' News is Striving to do this, but it is only one in many, and though t con tinues to. cry out, still unless up held by others it can do no good. Let us all pirive to give to , the. coming generation -that which will , keep- them from; our" mis takes. . : J ' " '' : It has1 been our; privilege.'';? travel over several of the roads ' t'.i county lately nd- en every one or tuenj we iouaa large t cf men at. work.

'Judge Adams In vbfs charge to the Grand Jury" . at tisr ,ierm of court dwelt on the sanctity that should be.united wlthheath that js administered to Juror and witness. - The promise is made and the Deity is 'called upon to witness that the person ' will be true .and tell the truth.' : a v That justice may.i he' done it is not only that' the Judge be im partial in the application of '.the law in his Interpretation or it, but that the juror' be true to his best manhciodaftd tljat, the wit? ness tell the truth." r There 'can be but one truth and froiq which ever side we loolt upon it, it is the same incident and the same truth. However there are' dis crepencies thfit give the lie to oqe story" or the qther and some one has disregarded his oath to tell- the truth and nothing but the truth' ;v - This: comes from a moral twisting or crookedness. We love the word righteousness, not because of its religious sense but its true meaning which applies to every part of life-rstraitness are we strait or crooked, right eous or unrighteous inwhat we say or do. We say a man is sin cere in giving his testimony, we go back and find it means' clear as the honey, without the wax an -without cera wax. ' A per fectly sincere witness or juror is one without, any impurity of mo tive or testimony. Npw this leads up to what the most .hon ored judge says of a great deal of testimony and what happens, if not here, at least Jn many places;' f-There is prejudice oft times in the mind of the juror, froifl friendliness for one, or re lationship or sympathy for the question. Or it-may go deeper and the man not only untrue to himself in spirit but openly sells himself by bribes received 'or favors asked,, Men' count on this to win' their cause. One of the novels written lately, -The Lion and the Mouse,";' is based upon a bribe given1 and" uncon sciously received, . tho ; not as a bribe, and the supposition of the briber that the one to whom it was given would regard it s a favor and judge accordingly. t " tn"0ur .xpuoiiir me,' 4 wnu learned'judge, you. nna tins cor ruption in buying -of votes, in money spent to gain , an office and in tne corrupting or tne pro- tectoriat.'?
