BALLoU's CASE CLOSED.

Hustace was then put through a re-
direct examination, and then Ballou in
troduced in evidence the original copy
of a newspaper letter of MagOon s
written last February, after the Su-
preme Court criticized his action in
the Dee Smith decision. In the letter
Magoon set forth that it was his de-
sire to prevent an injustice to Hustace
that led him to take the course he
took, and admitted that his actions,
which he said were dictated by pity
for his antagonist, had caused the Ka-
malo Company to lose a chance to col
lect $4,000 from Hustace.
The introduction of this letter closed
the case against Magoon, and he then
asked the court whether it wanted to
hear any evidence in defense.
81 do not want to burden the court, -
he said, ''but if the court thinks that
anything further than what has been
brought out by the prosecution should
be presented, I am ready. Myself and
associates agree that there is not any
thing in evidence to sustain the charges
and it seems like only burdening the
court to proceed, much as / desire from
a personal point of view to do so, to
bring out all the facts set forth in the
answer.

proceeding, and requires that the ma
terial allegations shall be substantiated
by more than one witness. There is

'EDid you make any motion?'' the
Chief Justice asked.
Magoon replied that he did not know
exactly how to make it and didn It
know whether the court desired to hear
from him or not, to which Frear re-
piled that Magoon would be expected
to 90 on with the case unless there was
a motion to the contrary.

of $780, said L. II. Dee, in answer
to a question on his cross-examinat1on
by Sidney A Ballou in the Magoon dis
barment proceedings before the SUI
preme Court yesterday afternoon just
at the close of long days hearing.
Dee had been put on the stand by Ma
COON in his defense.
"Did Magoon know that Hustace
had another lawyer at the time the
fee was paids'' asked Mr.. Ballou.
"We all knew that Robertson was
his lawyer"
stDid Magoon ask Hustace if his
lawyer had been consulted with refer
ence to this matter7''
81 heard no such question asked. -
And at this point the hearing was
adjourned for the day. The proceed
ings opened yesterday with Frank Hus-
tace on the stand and under cross-ex-
animation by Magoon. Magoon began
a lively set-to by asking Hustace why

"Why, that you would do what you

''You thought I was simply fleeing

81 did not then, but have since come
to that conclusion
Magoon once more inquired if what
he had done had been what Hustace
expected him to do. Hustace replied
in the negative, saying that he had ex-
pected Magoon to bring suits for which
he was paid the $3.50 and Magoon again
returned to the matter of his being

Nathan w. G. Hays has been reap.
pointed postmaster of Burlington and a
bitter controversy has been settled His
name was sent to the Senate yesterday
The warfare that was urged against this
official, the dirty means made to pre-
vent his retaining the position, all of the
points in what was one of the most bitter
political fights this county has ever seen,
are fresh in memory. The fact that Ma
than W. =. Hays was and is the best post
master the city of Burlington has ever
had was Of no account. Bitter personal
enmity and revenge were pushed into the
breach and the appointment has been held
up for nearly three years. But the people
have triumphed and the contemplate
coterie that sought to reduce to the ranks
the man who refused to bend the knee to
them have the very poor satisfaction of
seeing the object of their enmity again
take hold of the Office Just about the time
when he should have been thinking of re-
firing, for instead of serving for eight
years he is now about to enter full term
OF four years, which, including the time
he has been on the waiting bench, will
give him eleven years.
Congressman Gardner must be gratitied
that this question has been settled, for it
has bothered him more than any subject
that has engrossed his official attention.
Compelled to give heed to both sides of
the controversy he finally decided that the
people who have business at the post
office and who have the welfare of the
city and the government at heart were en-
titled to consideration. His action in re-
tanning postmaster Hays will be applauded
not only in the city of Burlington, but
will be praised in all parts of the state,
for the postmaster is not merely a local
man, he has friends all over We tender
our congratulations to the postmaster for
his well-deserved victory and to Congress
man Gardner for his attitude in securing
