The popular states attorney from Ward
county, James Johnson, was one Of inc
legal lights vino favored Wiliston with
his presence this week. Mr.. Johnson
came Ip to our THRIVING little city on
the invitation Of Q. NJ. Dean, to assist
him in prosecuting tile civil case OF
O. NJ. Dean vs Grinnell School District.
Mr.. johnson is one of the Oldest
settlers of Ward county, having moved
into that territory long before Ward
county was thought Of. He has clung
to his first love, grown up with the
country, and is now one Of the
most prosperous, as we'll as one Of the
most highly respected citizens in the
city of Mlnot, the capital of his county
G. NJ. Popham. an attorney at law
from Black River Falls, Wisconsin, WAS
in attendance at the term Of court this
week to assist States Attorney Stewart
in prosecuting the case of the State VI
Guy Martin, charged with assault upon
Dan Stiehl with dangerous weapon
with intent to do great bodily harm
Mr.. Popham is fairly good lawyer, and
made grand rhetorical effort before
the jury in summing up the case. And
judging from the verdict of the jury
they must have accepted the gentle
mans grandiloquences as evidencinp
superior legal lore. for so far as we could
see he gave but little attention to the
law. Ergo, when yon get before an in
telligent jury, use rhetoric in place o.
argument.
