The Crops

The small grain in this county was
good. Owing to hot winds the corn
IN some parts of the county, notably
the southeastern, viii be cut short
The territory west Of Phillipsburg
and north and northeast has had
good rains and corn looks fairly well,
we learn, but viii soon need rain.
In the territory ten miles IN diameter
Immediately surrounding Phillips
burg it IS dry. We failed to get the
two last rains that refreshed other 10
calities, hence corn is considerably
damaged, though we are told there
viii be some good corn near Phil
Ipsburg if we dOnOt have any more
rain.
Elder Turner has lately travelled
over the county considerably. He

poets are good.

DR.. g. T. Lawrence Acquitted.

1t will be remembered that early
in 1887 Miss May Potter residing
near Logan, this county, died after
brief illness. Since that time various
rumOrs were ahOat concerning her
death, some to the effect that she had
committed suicide others that her
death was caused by an attempt to
produce an abortion. At the late
Sitting of the grand jury, DR.. e. L.
Lawrence was indicted under the
above charge and the additional one
of murder. He had his trial IN the
District Court this week Mckay q
Mccormick attorneys for the state
and r. T. Shearer, OF Logan, and
StinsOn & Son of PhillipsbUrg for
the defense. The Doctor was &C
quilted on both charges and we are
informed that his innocence was
clearly established A year ago the
HERALD said there should be rigid
investigation into this matter and the
guilty man punished to the full ex-
! tent of the law whoever he might be.
We are happy to be able to say that
so far as DR.. Lawrence IS concerned
/ he has established his innocence.
The cause of the death of the un-
fortunate young lady seems to have
/ been suicide at least so the Coroner s
| jury thought and the jury sitting on
/ the trial Of DR.. Lawrence. The DR.
was ably defended by Ct. w. StlnsOn
/ & Son and II. Z. Shearer.
