In recent letter to DR.. Hartman,
Congressman Botlzin says:
any Dear Doctor-It gives me pleas
ure to certify to the excellent curative
qualities of your medicines-Peruna and
Manalin. I have been afflicted more OF
less for quarter of a century with ca
tarrh Of the stomach and constipation.
A residence in Washington has increased
these troubles. A few bottles of your
medicine have given me almost COM
plete relief, and 1 am sure that contin'
uation of them will effect a permanent
cure."-J. D. Bo:l1in.
Mr.. L. F. Verdery, prominent real

the Lexington lawS ers. We are
not here to make dilatory motions
acd We are quite as anxious to 60 to
trial, if not more so in this case, than
the prosecution. The main question
is that next Monday morning anoth-
or panel Of 36 jurors will be here
drawing pay, at the coupty's expense
with nothing to do, if the Tillmsn
trial begins this week. In addition
to this, the jury in the Tillman case
might perhaps be confined by his
honor during Sunday, and this also
would add to the county's expense"
eve do not wish to be placed in
the attitude" MIR. George Johnstone
said, s'of interfering in this contro-
versy between the Solicitor and the
bar, the grand jury and fiscal officers
of Lexington county" Mr.. Nelson,
he added, had omitted to point out
that we're the Tillman case commenc-
ed this week II jurors who had
served from today would be COM
PEELED to serve throughout the great
er part of next week, and they were
reasonably entitled to expect their
discharge from duty at the end of
the week. he commented on the
busy season of the year, declaring
that two weeks absence from private
business was too much to ask of the
same jurors and that a new jury
would be in service next week. Ii
commence next week be hoped and
believed that the case could be con-
cluded by Friday, at least with the
end of the week. Again suggesting
that the nonresident lawyers had
nothing to say in a matter between
the Solicitor and Lexington lawyers,
he described the former as, speaking
for the Tillman case, in sense
"persona non grsts" to the Lexing-
ton court, 30 long as Lexington's
interest were at stake.
JUDGE GARY's DECISION.
Promptly deciding the question,
the acting Judge said substantially:
There is nothing in the position
that outside lawyers or an outside
case are persona non grata' here.
They are properly and legally here
and have the same rights as other
litigants. When case is reached
for trial it should be tried, in its
proper place.. However, 1 cannot
ignore those considerations brought
to my attention solemnly in a special
presentment of the grand jury and
in the request of the county's fiscal
officers, and I feel it my duty to
carry out their suggestions. Besides,
I cannot see that harm can be IN.
volved in this course"
Mr.. E6rd arose and said that next
Monday would suit the local bar for
the trial to begin.
MONDAY AGREED UPON.
Mr.. Croft for the defense stated
that Monday would be satisfactory
and to this the Solicitor assented.
No formal order fixing the day for
trial, however, was passed, and the
court adjourned merely with the
understanding that the trial would
be undertaken on the day named.

The opening OF the Septemper
term OF court witnessed an unusual
ly large crowd Of people in attend
ance, some of whom were strangers
called here no doubt through curiosi-
ty as we'll as business connected with
the trial of Col. James H. Tillmap,
but it was obvious that at least over
three-fourths of the crowd were ma
tive Lexingtonians bent upon their
own private affairs. Today the ap-
pearances of our streets show NO no.
ticeable decrease in the number of
people in town, Notwithstanding it is
generally known that the Tillman
case would not be called for trisl un-
til next Monday.
Promptly at the usual hour
court convened and the business
moved off like we'll regulated piece
of machinery without friction or
Jar. This was no doubt the result OF
the efficient work of the court officials
in having the business of the court
we'll in hand. Clerk of Court SAM
uel B. George has been very industri-
GUS in preparing the dockets and at
tending to the other duties pertain
ing to his Office. MIR. George has
made a vary efficient and COMPETENT
public officer and has conducted his
Office on sound business principles
and transacts the business with
promptness and accuracy that is both
pleasing and satisfactory to bench
and bar. Sheriff Csughman, too, is
deserving of his need of praise for
tie prompt manner with which he
has performed his duties so as not to
retard the work of the court in wait
ing upon dereliet jurors and wit
nesses. And Solicitor Thurmond,
too, has been working like a beaver
to clear the way for the Tillmsn trial.
The amount Of work he has succeeded
in crowding in two days certainly
breaks the record in court work and
the cases disposed of, as recorded in
our court proceedings published else
where, is sufficient commendation of
his iabors and We can only add ''well
done, thou good and faithful SER
want" and all Lexington joins in
tie refrain.
Ia is indeed fortunate for the State
ard for the defendants that Hon.
Frank B. Gary has been assigned to
preside over the proceedings Of our
court. He certainly makes an ideal
judge. Learned in the law, fair and
impartial in his rulings he ''holds
the scales of justice with an even
hsnd," and without intending to be
fulsome We believe that his elevation
to the bench would be an honor to
the State and an adornment to the
legal profession. $50 mote it be-"

THE BOARD OF CONTROL.

The fight on the board of con
troll has again begun. Rather il
once more reaches the surface
for it was never reall yabandoned.
The institutional towns are day
by day strengthening themselves
for the attack which they will
make on the board at the meet
ing Of the next legislature. The
.difficulties which the board is
now experiencing in the manage
ment o. the financial end of the
state university affords the er.
emies Of the board Of control idea
an opportunity to enter public
complaint.
1t is unfortunate that the uni
versity is under the control of
the board, but the friends of the
university are themselves to
blame. Their unholy alliance
with the institutional towns in an
attempt to abolish the board Of
control Disguised the members
OF the legislature and that body
finally refused to afford the uni
versity any relief.
The board of control has dem
onstrated the fact that 1T can
make the management of the
states institutions much more
effective than under the old plan
and at the same time save the
state money. 1t is safe to say
that the people Of the state will
never stand for an abandonment
Of the board of control idea.
