Hon. George w. Barnett, Of Sedalia, ad-
dressed q small audience at the court
house, last Saturday, on the subject of the
removal of the state capitol. From his
remarks 1t was difficult to understand
how the people ould be benefited by
the removal. His logic was poor. and
man of his comparisons were ridiculous.
1t is safe to say hat he made no converts
for the cause he advocated, though ne Is a
fair orator and Is said to be a lawyer Of
ine ability.
Criminal court convened on Monday,
Judge Ryland presiding. A number Of
cases have already been disposed OF, but
owing to the length of the docket the ses-
sion will probably continue for three
weeks longer. Applications were filed for
q special judge to try the cases Of Edward
Ruckel, assault to kill; George Gill, burg
larry second degree; James and j. w.
McCown, selling liquor without license,

plications, and q special term will he held
next month to hear these cases. 1t is not
unlikely thatsseveral other cases now on
the regular docket will be carried over to
the special term. In all probability Judge
d. w. Shackelford will be appointed to
preside at the special session.
