Thursday morning was devoted to
business. In the afternoon a visit
was made to the Hospital for the In
sane This was a source of great in
terest to the editors, it being the first
visit of many of them to the institu-
ton. The extent and beauty Of the
buildings and the grounds was a reye-
lation to them. The scrupulous clean
illness and neatness inside and out of
the asylum, the thorough control Of
the patients, the evidence on every
hand of entirely capable management,
convinced the visitors that DR.. Crum-
hacker, the superintendent, Miss Bib
by, the matron, and all their assist
ants and helpers, were giving consci-
entious attention to their work and
discharging their duties with the ut
most ability. II could not Dut be
satisfaction to everybody to feel the
assurance that this, the most import
ant of our State institutions, was being
so capably conducted. Alright there
was ball at the asylum, and many of
the patients participated in the fes-
tivities with the greatest enjoyment
and decorum. Yet it was, withal,
pathetic sight to see them and to feel
that an accursed and perhaps incura-
bic malady kept them from filling use
full positions in the world and sepa-
rated them from those who loved them.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

THE Charleston Gazette is authority
for the statement that a cut has been
made in the pay of the coal miners of
the New river district in West Vir-
GINA, and the miners may go on
strike, claiming that they are forced
to take starvation wages now. News
from the Fairmont region is to the
effect that a reduction of from two to
five cents per ton is to be made in the
wages of miners there-and so it goes
all over the State. These poor dupes
were shamefully tricked by the false
promises made them last fall. Wonder
if they Will be as easily fooled next
year?

brier independent The meeting was
an enthusiastic one, and from the earn
estness of the large number Of editors
who were present and the outline of
the work proposed to be done we are
sure it will result in the greatest good
to the party in the next campaign.
Here's pointer; Let the Demo
Gratis who are interested in the well
fare of their party give their hearty
support to those newspapers that are
faithfully laboring for the success Of
the principles of the party.
The United States Senate last week
passed a resolution recognizing the
Cuban government and according to
the Cuban patriots the rights of beIlig-
erents. The resolution is now in the
House of Representatives, where
Speaker Reed Will endeavor to smoth-
er it. The passage Of the resolution
is said to be very annoying to Presi-
dent Mckinley, who is unwilling to
have our government entangled in a
war with Spain during his administra-
ton. Senator Elkins, Of this State,
made most sensible speech against
the resolution, He pleaded with the
Senate to leave this great question
with the executive department, where
it properly belongs, and declared that
a mere declaration of war made by
Spain would cost this country $780,
100000. He insisted that Congress
should proceed with caution, and be
fortified with facts.
At the annual meetingof the West
Virginia Press Association last week
at Weston resolution was introduced
calling upon the President to interfere
in behalf of the Cubans. A committee
reported adversely upon the measure,
and it was tabled by large majority.
A brief discussion of the resolution de-
veloped the fact that the editors SYM
pathized with the Cubans, but that
they regarded it as unwise for the
United States to take part in the
struggle. We think this is the posi-
ton Of most of the sensible people Of
the country, and the jingoes are not
expressing public sentiment.

COUNTY ATTORNEYS
MUST BE REIMBURSED FOR
TRAVELLING EXPENSES.
Attorney-General Bishop Also Says
County Must Pay Prosecutors APP
pointed by the Court to Serve in
Criminal Gases Where the County
Attorney Fails to Attend.

Attorney General Bishop yesterday
! rendered an opinion answering two
questions propounded by County At
I torney Hanson of Willard county Mr..
/ Hanson asked to be advised:
/ First Whether, under the law, it
would be proper for the county COM
missioners to allow a claim of the
/ county attorney to reimburse him for
the amounts expended by him in trav-
cling to the various precincts in his
county in the discharge of his official
duties.
Second. Should the county attorney
fail for good cause to attend and prose-
cute a case in the justices court and
such justice appoints a prosecutor for
the state who performs the duties i'm
posed upon the county attorney, and
who presents reasonable claim
against the county therefor, is such
claim a legal charge?
Replying to the first question the at
torney-general points out that it is
mandatory on the part of the county
attorney to attend in person or by
deputy all criminal prosecutions within
his district The law also expressly
provides that the necessary expenses of
the county attorney in such cases shall
be paid by the county. What are nee
essary expenses in such cases is a ques
ton for the commissioners to deter
mine. If they should find that the
items of the bill presented came with
in this designation it would be proper
to allow the bill and to order a warrant
drawn for the same.
In replying to the second query Mr..
Bishop quotes section 10, article g. of
the constitution which provides:
I'm all cases where the attorney for
any county or for the state fails or re-
fuses to attend and prosecute accord
ing 70 law the cOurt shall have the
power to appoint an attorney protein
pore"
He then refers to section 10, chapter
124, laws of 1896. from which it clearly
appears to be the duty of the county
commissioners when it shall be found
that the business of the office of county
attorney cannot be dispatched by the
principal alone, to furnish him with
the needed assistance. If the county
attorney should find that for good
cause he would be unable to attend
and prosecute when required it would
be his duty to notify the county COM
missioners to that effect. in which case
they would be empowered to appoint
an attorney pro-tempore.
But in order that the course of JUS
tice may not be interrupted the at
torney- general is OF the opinion that
section TO- article s, of the constitution
as above quoted, would be sufficiently
broad TO authorize the court to appoint
an attorney pro-tempore, which should
be done by its order and the same en-
tered of record, in any case where for
any reason the county attorney when
required by the court should fail or
refuse to appear and prosecute. And,
under these circumstances, Mr.. Bishop
holds that the county would be liable
for q reasonable compensation for the
services Of the attorney so appointed

To Be Called For.

The perplexities of county commits
sioners are not always concerned with
finding what warrants are outstand-
ing. There is in the clerks office a
pile of warrants that have never been
called for. The warrants are mostly
small, varying in amounts from a few
cents to SIS.
In all the pile amounts to S212. In
many cases the warrants were issued
by mistake. through the careleSsness
Of road supervisors working on the
boulevard in reporting time twice The
pdyees of such warrants refused to
take what they had not earned. In
other cases the parties probably did
not understand that anything was COM
ing to them. In one or two instances
the parties were anSered at the small
ness of the warrants and went away.
II a party can establish a valid claim
to any of the warrants the commits
sioners will no doubt provide for their
payment. Following are some of the
payees and amounts:
Z. Flint, 1918: d. o. Mckay, SIS;
Mary A. McCoard, S4.56; d. J. Young,
1915; Joseph Thomas. 50; Joseph Tay-
Tor. 1915; Dell Dalton. SIS; John Muir
ply, SIS; William Felt, So; ]. B. Jen-
kins. SO; J. Kendall, SO; S. Deemers SO,

graph company. SO cents; John w

THE TAX LIST AGAIN.
Another Big Bill in From the Press
Publishing Company.

Il, B. F. Thomas, being first duly
sworn, deDose and say that the ac-
count mentioned in the annexed bill
is true and correct, and that the
amount claimed is justly due said
claimant after allowing all just cred
it's"
Such was the affidavit made in reg
ular form by B. f. Thomas. manager
of the Evening Press, when he sub
mitted another bill for printing the tax
list. The bill is for sub-headings, lead
headings and other work connected
with the publication Of the tax list,
as well as for extra papers.
Before filing the bill the warrant for
1904 allowed by the commissioners was
taken by H. c. Bigelow on an order
from Manager Thomas. 1t would ap-
pear as though the Press contemplated
such a coup all the way along. for the
bid which it submitted to Collector
Hurlburt and which is now depended
on to establish a contract, is carefully
worded and addressed to no one in
particular. It reads:
Press Publishing company will print
tax list for Az cents per description.
'B. F. THOMAS"
This would seem to leave room for
the claims made in the last bill. Fur
thermOre, it is expected that the Press
will push its other claim based on a
stead of AZ cents. The strength of
the Press position, if it has any
is in the implied threat to
invalidate every tax sale unless it
shall receive the full amount of the
first bill.
1t is to be hoped that the county
may not have to yield.

HEIGHT VS.. METzLER.
An Action For Deceit Argued and
Submitted

Two cases We're yesterday argued in
the supreme court and taken under
Amusement One was Charles Fecht,
appellant, vs. Joseph Metzler, an action
for deceit.
The complaint alleges that on August
l. 1893 the plaintiff and defendant en-
tered into q contract in writing where
by the plaintiff on or before September
IS, 1898, was to convey to defendant
$3.50 acres of land and certain personal
property in the state OF Colorado, in
consideration of the conveyance by the
defendant to the plaintiff, contempor-
aneously herewith. OF four parcels of
real estate in Ogden City, Utah; that
the agreed value in the contract of the
Colorado property was $50 an acre and
the agreed value Of the ogden proper
ties as expressed in the deeds from
defendant ID plaintiff was $119, coo; that
the defendant made certain false ana
fraudulent representations concerning
the improvements on the ogden prop
critics, the rental value thereof and
the location of portion thereof which
induced the plaintiff TO enter into the
contract and execute il according to
its terms; that if said representations
had been true the said properties
would have been worth $ll9,0D0, where
as in truth and in fact they were
worth only $36, AS: thar mutual convey
ances We're made in accordance with
the terms Of the contract. The plain
tiff then asks for judgment for $50, $50
and costs.
The answer denied all the material
allegations OF the complaint respecting
the fraud and deceit denied that plain
tiff and defendant at any time agreed
upon a price 10 be paid by plaintiff for
the Ogden property or that the consid-
GRAFTON set out in this deed was under
stood to be the true value or consider
alton of either Of the properties and
alleged that said amounts We're, and
We're distinctly understood to be, ficti-
tious and that the transaction was, /
and was understood TO be, a mere ex-
change or barter Of real estate made /
and completed after an examination |
by each party respectively of the prop |
erty he expected and ultimately re- /
ceiVed. The answer further set up that /
the defendants Colorado property was I
of no greater value than $4,000 and |
defendant offered TO reconvey and re- /

tiff for that sum.
The action was tried and verdict and |

trial.

WE'LL FOUND GUILTY.
Will Be Sentenced For Forgery on
Monday-Smith to Be Tried on
Another Charge Today.

NJ Well was yesterday found guilty
of forgery by Judge Hiles.' to appear
for sentence Monday morning at 10
o'clock. There is hardly any doubt IN
the minds of officers and others who
have investigated the matter but that
Smith was equally guilty with Well,
the two being in a conspiracy to de-
fraud. However, the scheme was so
adroit that it could not be proven that
the men had been in collision
Smith will be tried at 10 o'clock this
morning before Justice Hulaniski on a
charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses. The other informations
against him and against We'll were
dismissed. If Smith is convicted before
Justice Hulaniski, the maximum pun
ishment will be six months in the
county Jail and $500 fine. He was ar
raigned yesterday and pleaded not
guilty.
