The case Of Doc Stewart and others VS.
the canvassing board of Custer county
came up for hearing before Judge
Church Of the district court on last
Wednesday evening, and occupied the
attention Of the court that and the fol-
towing evening. Judge Moody, for the
board, made the opening and closing
argument in the case while the one by
Judge Bennett, for Stewart, was sand
witched in, and Custer people had the
pleasure Of listening to the two ex-
judges Of the First Judicial District,
pleading before their successor. This
fact of itself was of sufficient attraction
to draw a large crowd of both sexes, as il
gave one an opportunity Of comparing
the three, and added to this was the fact
that the people of Custer were one and
all deeply interested in the case, as it
affects our cOunty's welfare. Both
sides of the case were ably handled.
The two points upon which a %preponder-
ance of the arguments were spent, were
whether the duties of the canvassing
board were ministerial or judicial, and
whether the law providing for the e,ec-
tioI to decide on the division was a
legal or illegal one. The counsel for
both sides produced numerous authori
ties to establish their different positions
a TO the first point, and as we are in
doubt as to which mad the best OK il, we
will give our sympathies the benefit of
that doubt, and decide that the boards
duties were ministerial. AS to the sec
ond and principle point in controversy
the legality Of the law, we had grave
doubts, and those were certainly
strengthened BY Judge Moody. The
question resolves itself into the follow.
ing: If the bill as passed was a law
without the vote of the people, then il
is legal, if not, then it is illegal, and il
makes no difference whether "a majority
Of the voters voted for division or not
there is nc law, and consequently nc
county Of Fall River. Judge Church
has reserved his decision in the case,
AMI will probably not render one until
the ncXt term of court, and the chances
are that, no matter which way he de-
cides, the case will be kept in the courts
for the next two years at least.

Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded bya sense
OF weight in the back, loins and lower part
OF the abdomen, causing the patient to sup
pose he has SEINE affection OF the kidneys
or neighbOring organs. At times, symp-
toms of Indigestion are present as tatu-
ency, uneasiness OF the stomach, etc. A
moisture, like Precipitation, producing a
very disagreeable itching, particularly at
night after getting warm in bed, is very
common attendant. Internal. External
and Itching Piles yield at once to the APP
plication of DR.. BoSanko's Pile Remedy,
which acts directly upon the parts affected,
absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense
itching and etfecting permanent cure
where a. other remedies have failed. DO

The doctor, says recent publication,
recalled very fishy "Reminiscences OF q

told how q six pound bass engaged his
attention for two hours, and how, haV-
mo carelessly allowed the line to be-
come slack, the bass, who had evidently
been watching for an opportunity, gave
the line two or three bitches around a
cypress stump, and then cOolly, at his
leisure, guawed the line until 1t broke
above its point of contact with the
stump, the fish nnhitching himself and
swimming off, wagging his tail IS II he

strategy every day. This suggested
