From the Springfield RtcOrd.l

From the Springfield Record
Last Saturday the Supreme Court
decided the cast of Wilson, Receiver,
ss. Gains, Comptroller, in which the
Court held that the st. l.. d 5. +. r,
Il. lying in Tennessee, was subject t.
taxation; that exemption from taxa
ton for 20 years. even if valid in the
hands OF the original purchasers lrou,
the State, was not the subject Of sales
by them.
The opinion WAS elaborate and very
able, and was delivered by Judge Tur
ney, who is the same Judge who dc
livercd the opinion in the ease of Eykr
vs.. the f. d x. X. r.. by which the
poor mechanics who built the drpols
here anil at Cedar Hill got their pay
for the labor.
Judge Turney, BY his ability, enere,
and unquestionable integrity has won
the esteem and best wishes OF the reo-
pie OF Robertson county. lie il u can
didate for re election, and the people
could not do better than TO place him
upon the Supreme Court again. In
him they would have a man who in the
past lns always stood Ivy the Con,titu-
ton and the reserved rights of the
people, and Who is the peer OF any
lawyer In the State.
w are for Judge Turney, and from
what we hear are satisfied that We
hut echo the sentiment of the Bar.
and people OF this State, when We say
they are for him aud will cleo, him he
yond question to the Supreme Bench |
AMI by so doing they will have a s.n,i
mel upon the watchtower. who will se.
that the law is administered in il. or
iginal purity. and justice done ever,
man. he he rich or poor. grra, -,

these to dispense with the services of
