Orient Prospects.

Sonora News
The Investigations made by the
Orient engineers has determined
the fact that Sonora is a practical
point on a division south from
San Angelo on 6 40 grade.
This grade is a great deal lower
than the Orient expected to find
in this country and 80 far go good,
but there is the ridge or divide
route of greater distance but
smoother sailing, and that is all.
The Orient IN its great project of
cutting the Trunk Lines and
going to the bottom for feeders,
has not seen an inland town half
the equal of Sonora. This is a
great country for expanse and in
expensive territory awaiting the
Orient, easily susceptible to de-
velopment and great freight
producer for the system.

II was prosecuting attorney for Fin.
ney county in 1881, and had a fellow
up before Squire n. c. Jones on the
charge of horse stealing. He hired
Mike Sutton to defend him, and when
the case was called l proved beyond
question by witness who witnessed
the theft that we had the right man.
After the prosecution had rested SUIT
ton introduced Buffalo Jones as a
witness and gravely Informed the court
that he intended to prove by him that
my witness had lied. Buffalo took
the stand and swore that while he had
never seen or heard OF the witness be.
fore and knew nothing at all about the
crime committed, he had had n great
deal Of experience with men and could
tell pretty certain when they were
lying. Then he proceeded to tell how
men acted when they were lying, and
gave the expert opinion that my wit
ness had sworn to lies from the word
go. l protested against such perform
ances, but Sutton made the judge be-
lieve he had as much right to intro
duce an expert on liars as he would
have to introduce an expert on medi.

suit was the thief was dismissed from
