AN OLD JUDGMENT.
An Execution Issued Against Rev. Green

An Execution Issued Against Rev. Green
Clay Smith for $4,000.
Louisville Commercial.
Acting under instructions from the Solicitor
of the Treasury, the United States district at
torney yesterday directed that an execution be
issued against Rev. Green Clay Smith on an old
Judgment obtained against him in 1876 for $780,
260
The case IS only brought up again now through
the zeal of the new Solicitor of the Treasury to
settle up lot of ancient suits The suit arises
from General Smiths accounts as Governor of
Montana and ex officio superintendent of Indian
affairs in that Territory. In 1868, when he gave
up the Office, the government refused to allow
certain claims, amounting to $24 800. and sew
eral years afterward brought suit AGAINST Kim
for that sum and the accrued interest In 1876
Judgment rendered by default against Gov
ernor Smith, but no execution was ever issued.
The whole matter arises from dispute on tech
nicalities over some accounts which the govern
ment refuses to allow One item the salary
of private secretary at 81. 800 per annum, which
General Smith had paid, but which the govern
ment declined to allow. Another item was that
General Smith had taken note, which proved
worthless, in payment for some supplies

He was waiting patiently to have a word with
the senator. He sat modestly in the background
and apparently treasured up speech which he
was ready to deliver. When the senator was
ready he turned about to his caller. The rural
Democrat stood up very stiff in his new gray
clothes and said very solemnly: 'Sir, last year
when we erected hickory pole in our village,
