An Important Matter.

One very important matter to come
up at the next session of the Legisla-
ture, which meets on the Nth January
next, is the matter of the funding OF
refusing to fund the 100000 of State
bonds alleged to have been owned and
lost by the old defunct State Bank, ap-
plication for such funding having been
made by Samuel Lord, Receiver of said
State Bank.
This very stale claim of Mr.. Lord,
Receiver, has been pending long
while and has been passed upon ad-
versely by two successive Legisla-
lures; but not content with repeated
sdownings" it bobs up serenely again
and again. We have seen both reports
of the committee appointed by the
House of Representatives at its last
session. The majority report fayors'
and the minority report is adverse to
the claim, and of the two, in our hum
BILE judgment, the minority report is
unquestionably the sounder and bet
ter. J. VIM. Thurmond, Esq, of Edge
field makes this minority report and it
is subject of congratulation, not only
to Edgefeld, but to the whole State
that so sound lawyer andso honest a
legislator holds the helm in this busi-
ness. We are satisfied that the House
will adopt Mr.. Thurmond's views of
this whole matter and repudiate and
Justly repudiate the claim.

it was SO. The hot breezes, however,
have increased in holiness and windiness.
Advices received here indicate that the
wind will probably not get hot enough to
do much damage to crops. The Their

THE GOVERNOR INDIGNANT
At Charges Made by Judge QuintOn In the
Herald Hearing

At Charges Made by Judge QuintOn in the
Herald Hearing.
Commissioner of Elections Frank Her
aid is today trying to convince Governor
Morrill, that the governor has no right to
remove him from Office.
Yesterday was the day set by Frank
Herald's lawyer, A. B. Quinton, to take
the depositions of Governor Morrill,, r.
B. McMaster, N. G. Mcfarland, J. NJ. Nc
FarIand but the depositions were not
taken.
None of the witnesses appeared at the
place the dispositions were to have been
taken but bright and early this morning
Commissioned Herald and his lawyer and
friends appeared at the governors Office
at the time set for the hearing.
Judge A. B. Qdinton read what might
Re termed a demurrer to the charges
questioning the right of the governor to
sit as judge in the matter.
In this document Judge Quinton
said if the dispositions had been
taken all the witnesses would have
sworn that the governor had promised to
appoint R. B. McMaster commits
sioner of elections before any steps were
taken to oust Herald and that he had
promised Judge N. G. Mcfarland that
his son, j. NJ. Mcfarland should be made
deputy commissioner of elections.
As the document was read Governor
Morrill, became fidgety, and when
Judge Qpinton had finished reading the
Governor said: "Mr. Quinton, that is all
false, every word of it is false as far as
it relates to me. 1 never made any
promises to any one."
Assistant Attorney General GODDARD,
who was present. suggested that perhaps
Mr. Herald wanted to take a change of
venue and try his case before the gov
ernor of Arkansas.
Mr. Rerald's lawyer did not take
kindly to Mr.. Godard's suggestion and
tae hearing was commenced.
Chairman Charles S. Elliott OF the
Republican county central committee
was the first witness, and he told all
about the trouble experienced in regis
tering voters. which was printed in the
STATE JOURNAL at the time.
Charles E Gault, who had charge of
the registration for the county central
committee, was the principal witness.
The hearing is still in progress this
afternoon.

1t Is Spreading It's Long TentaoIes Where
No New Walks Are Needed.
The council will be confronted by a
great many indignant people at the
next meeting unless the committee on
streets and walks manage to fix up the
late condemnation of sidewalks satisfac-
torily.
Charges are made that the sidewalk
inspector condemned many walks which
were III good condition and left others
that we're in dangerous condition out of
the list.
Councilman Burgess has case of two
lots on Western avenue, the walks of
which have been condemned, while the
walks next 10 them are no better and
some of them not so good, which have
escaped condemnation.
There are three lots on Jackson street,
81, 80 and 80, which are in the list Of
condemned walks, and the city engi-
neer and the committee on streets and
walks had decided that the walks were
all right. and ordered them released
from condemnation. but still they have
been published among the rejected
walks.
DR. Fighter is indignant because over
100 feet of his walk on Huntoon street
has been condemned. "My walk is in
good condition." said he, "and is good
for two or three years more, but still it
has been ordered condemned. 1t is
strange to me how the walks in the out
skirts of the city will be condemned
and there are places in the heart of the
city where there are no walks at all There
is place of this kind on East Fourth
street, where for several lots there is no
walk whatever. I do not understand
why there has been this determination
in the condemning of walks.
There are brick walks in the edge of
town on which fine grass crops are be-
ing raised.
Councilman Drew is making list of
walks which have been unjustly con-
demned and he will report them to the
committee on streets and walks

LONDON, July 1.-THE greatest excite

Curzon, the sitting candidate and a Con-
servative is contesting his seat against
Sir George Herbert NayIor-Leyland, the

The two candidates, accompanied by
their wives, are driving about rallylng
their forces, and great squads OF men
and women bicyclists as we'll as horses
and rigs, are to be seen on all sides
wearing the favors of the rival politi-
clans.
All the bicyclists had their party colors
streaming from their handle bars and the
Curzon riders formed an escort for Mr.
and Mrs. CurzOn while the Naylor- Ley
land wheelmen formed themselves into
a body guard for the purpose of cheer
ing on theiE candidate.
The Radicals are making most of Sir
Herbert Naylor-Leyland's belated denial
that he purchased his Baronetcy. While
body of about ITO Liberal bicycle
riders were escorting Sir Herbert
and Lady Naylor- Leland several drunk
en- Conservatives, wheeling a barrow
painted with Curzon colors dashed
among them and sent the riders sprawl

followed.
There are also lively times today at
Leeds, especially in the west division,
where Col North, the Conservative can
didate. is said to have good prospects of
defeating the Liberal candidate, the
| Right Hon. Robert ]. Gladstone, son of
the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone.
Colonel North with his family and half
a dozen secretaries, a number of servants
and horses galore, is here occupying the
principal hotel and is conducting clev
er campaign. He points particularly to
the humble cottage where he was born.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, speak
ing at Abercairne today, said that be
accepted the honor of contest
ing West Monmouth in the cause Of
temperance. He added that he was 9
firm Liberal and would STICK to the
grand old man, even if every one else
