Fellow Citizens - Encouraged by the solicit
tations of friends in various parts of the
county, as well rs by repeated assurances
that my course in the last Legislature met
the approval OF the people, | respectfully
announce myself candidate for the next
SENATE Of the State. In doing so, how
ever, it is but due to myself to say, that
among the several measures of retrenchment
brought forward by myself in the last House
of Delegates were two in relation to the fees
Of lawyers in criminal cases--the one, to limit
the appearance fee Of the States Attorney. in
all cases Of indictment for misdemeanor and
felony, TO five dollars in each case, with such
additional compensation as the Judges of the
Circuit Court may recommend as reasonable
in cases of special labor and the other, to
restrict the appearance fec of the attorney APP
pointed by the Court to defend prisoner TO
five dollars in all cases The farmers and tax
payers of the county have these bills to pay,
and have, also, the right, presume, through
their representatives in the Legislature, 10 sec
that they are not unreasonable.
The two measures above alluded to as hay-
ing been introduced by myself-and which were
recommended by our present resident Judge of
the Circuit Court-passed the House OF Dele
gates without dissenting voice, and had
they not been defeated in the Senate through
the fundamentally of our present State Senator
who | understand is again candidate
would have saved the county considerable
sum. To my measures, reducing Ito something
like what they were before the war) the fees of
the Sheriff for keeping and feeding prisoners,
as also the fees Of the Crier Of Court, the
Senator had no objection, but the moment |
undertook TO reduce the fees of the LAWYERS in
criminal cases-alike paid by the county-the
Senator not only objected but had my bills
TO that effect defeated in the Senate. notwith
standing, as said before, they had passed the
House OF Delegates unanimously These are
the facts shown by the record, COPY OF which
the Senator and myself both have-either of
which, presume is open to inspection.

presump,ious in me. in becoming candidate,
