THE Gazette of last week contained a
bitter assault upon Judge Okey. 1t may
be that Judge Okey does not crowd bus
inesS as rapidly as he might, but we as
sert that no more upright and cOnscien-
tious and pains taking man ever sat up
on the bench in this county, and litigants
have the consolation of knowing that
when case has gone through his court
it has been carefully heard and fully in
vestigated by an honest, fair minded and
pains taking Judge. In these days this
costs something. We assert, further
more, that the great mass of the people
of this county are well satisfied with
Judge Okey.

Flushing township, just closed, we are
told that three young men from LicG

refused to pay their tuition after having
received the benefits of the school, claim

The other members of the class denounct
the action of these fellows, and say that
it will likely be long time before they
are admitted to membership in another
singing class in that locality, unless they
pay in advance.
