P0cahontas Circuit Court.

Circuit Court convened in POcahon-
tas Tuesday. There is quite batch
of criminal business to be pushed
through. We have in Jail man in
dicted for killing woman, and wo
man indicted for killing man.
Public interest centers most largely
in the case of Jerome KellisOn who
killed Mrs. Simmons ana who was so
long fugitive from this county. His
mother and sister are in town and will
be with him during the ordeal of his
trial. We understand that this: case
will in all probability come off this
court.
The case of Mrs. Mary F. Young.
who killed Chas. Mory at her hotel, can
hardly go over this term, as the de
fendant insisted so strongly on trial
last term. Jones is employed to assist
in the prosecution and Gilmer is for
the defendant. This will be pretty
warm legal battle.
The colored man, Taylor, who was
acting as peacemaker when M0ry was
shot seems to have got it where most
peacemakers do get it-in the neck.
He is still in Jail under Indictment and
nothing is heard of his case. When
Mory and Mrs. Young jumped to their
feet and the close observer could have
seen razors flying in the air. Taylor
grabbed the man and pulled him in
the corner and held him while Mrs.
Young shot him across the room. If
the States contention that he held
Mory so that be could be shot is co1-
rect, it shows sublime confidence on
his part in Mrs. Young's marksman-
ship.
The case of Nagle, charged with
stealing a horse from Mann Bros, will
probably be heard. VIM. NJ. McAllis-
ter represents the defendant. Nc
Clintic is employed by prosecuting wit
nesses to assist in the prosecution.
Bob Jackson, who is under indict-
ment charged with appropriating $25
in gold of Mrs. d. w. Proctor to his
own use is out on ball. This case may
come up. McClintlc and Mcneil for
the defense.
Alfred Rider, who stands indicted
for cutting Cam Lockridge and who
jumped his 5000 bail last court, is still
at large.
Outside of the regular routine chan
Gerry business there are no civil cases
of any great Importance to be heard
next week.-PocahOntas Times.

SOME POLITICAL ISSUES OF 1904.
Chairman J. X. Jones' Views Of the Next
Presidential Contest.

Senator James X. Jones, chairman
of the Democratic National Commit
tee, was in Washington last week,
while the visit had nothing to do with
politics, the opinions he expressed as
to the issues of the next national cam
paign were significant.
1.-The Supreme Court decision" he
says, "has marked the issues that must
be fought out and settled by the peo-
pie. The court has decided that Con
gress may determine how the people OF
territory acquired by the United States
shall be treated; whether they shall be
citizens or subjects. The issue before
the people is what the course of Con-
gress shall be in the exercise of this
power.
1T will have to be determined wheth-
er, Congress being given the power to
extend government to the people. the
government extended shall be in accord
with the American declaration OF prln
ciples and the constitution, or whether
it shall be some other sort of govern
ment. foreign to our institutions. L -e
contention of the Democracy will be
for the preservation of the doctrines
upon which our government is found
ed. We shall oppose the theory that
there may be subjects under our Re-
publican form of government.
81 believe President MCKINLEY said
in speech recently that it was 'mer-
chandise, not maxims,' we wanted
The people of this country will have to
determine whether equality before the
law, self government by the people,
the principles of the Declaration of In
and the rights guaranteed
by the constitution are 'maxims' to be
abandoned for merchandise
This issue is directly presented and
will, l believe, overshadOw every other
consideration.

The Smart Set For July.

The publishers of The Smart Set de-
clare the July number of that magazine
superior in many respects to all pre-
v1ous numbers, and the opinion is one
in which readers will doubtless concur.
There is not a heavy line In all the 160
pages, but the number scintillates with
smart humor that is as exhilarating to
the heated brain as a rOIlicking ocean
breeze. The literature of blood and of
mud has no place in The Smart Set,
but all its fiction is of that vivacious
and enchanting character so hard to
write, SO easy to read. so rarely found
in periodicals and so refreshingly en-.
joyable to the amusement loving world
AS d magazine of real entertainment
The Smart Set has no rival.

Struck the Black Sheep.

A queer freak of lightning was wit
messed On Friday last on the farm of
Harold Cobb, near Winchester. Dur
ing a heavy storm a flock OF sixty
sheep, in which there were three black
ones, took refuge beneath a tree.
Lightning struck the tree, splintering
it, and, seemingly picking out the
three black sheep in different parts OF
the flock, instantly killed them without
iDjuring any of the white sheep. Their
carcasses we're found in places twenty
feet apart.
