The Holladay Estate.

The proceedings instituted in the
probate court at Greenville by the
widow and heirs of H. N. Holiday
against the Mississippi Valley
Trust Company, for its removal as
curator of the minor children of I'll.
N. Holladay came to an abrupt
termination pending the trial on
Friday last. Complainants open
ed the case on Thursday at P. NJ,
and by seeking to prove by farm
ers the method and proper cost of
constructing railroad, and by a
carpenter the construction of
bridges and trestles; by consent of
parties former manager of the
Lumber Company was examined
and testified as to one of the prin-
cipal charges against the Trust
Company, touching the bad man
agement, loss and waste by build
ing logging spur. over the ridge
of hills instead of through gullies.
His testimony showed so clearly
that the cost of construction
through the lowlands would have
been more costly than it would
over the ridges, that complainants
did not dare to indulge in much
cross-examination as to his testi-
mony, especially as it appeared
that to build the valley route meant
to shut down the sawmill for an
indefinite time, an infinitely great
er loss than any difference in cost
between the valley and ridge spurs.
After this evidence was in it be-
came apparent to the audience that
there was something doing"
| The climax was reached on Fri
day morning. The attorney and
parties held long and earnest con-
versations, the result of which be-
came apparent when plaintiffs at
torney announced to the court that
plaintiff had concluded to with
draw the charges, but that Mr..
Breckenridge Jones, vicc-presi-
dent of the Trust Company, was to
make staetment of the defend
ants side of the case. After listen
ing to Mr.. Jones' statement, which
covered two hours and half time,
but one conclusion was possible,
and that was that each and every
charge was without the slightest
foundation. Mr.. Jones not only
took up each of the charges singly
and refuted it in toto, but proved
by the books of the company and
correspondence in his possession
the falseness of the charges. The
crowning knockout blow came
when the sweeping charge of gen.
eral mismanagement of the
Lumber Company was met. 1t
was shown that when H. N. Holla-
day died in 1899 the company ow-
ed S346, 900, and was in tight box;
that it paid all the debt of 1899 and
paid out since 1899 S156, 900 in div
idends. and had in bank over
500, 900 in cash, and S243, 900 of in
vestments convertible into cash at
a moments notice, in addition to
the plant, open accounts, teams,
stores and general equipment of
the company, excluding the rail-
road; that it had added $3.50 of
betterments to the plant, and had
written off for estimated deprecia-
ton S138,000, and in four and a
half years had, after writing off
S13S,000 for estimated depreciation
of plant and assets by wear and
tear, left a net profit of S54S, ,000.-

A Law That Seems Practical.

President Roosevelt should have
read copy of the latest Ohio laws
before writing his message. In
! that case he W 5aid have found that
the Buckeye legislature, doubtless
in moment of temporary mental
alteration, really enacted some
thing progressive in the way of
anti-election fraud laws.
Everyone will agree with the
president that from a high moral
point of view both the man who
purchases and who sells a vote
should be punished. Nevertheless,
from the practical side it must be
conceded that this kind of law, in
it usual form, is nearly impossible
of enforcement.
That each is equally amenable
to the law is usually enough to
close the mouths of both for mu-
tual protection.
The new Ohio law provides that
the man who has sold his vote and
who testifies against the man who
bought it cannot be punished for
his part in the transaction. His
safety, therefore, lies in exposure
of the other fellow.
Whatever may be the ethical
view in such matters, it must be
evident that to reach the man
who does the buying is to srike
at the root of the evil.-Kansds

Imperfect Digestion

Means less nutrition, and in con-
sequence, less vitality. When the
liver fails to secrete bile, the blood
becomes loaded with bilious prop
critics, the digestion becomes inn
paired and the bowels constipated.

tone to the stomach, liver and kid

that the most noticeable feature Of

in population, which from minimum
of 81, in January, 1903, rose to a max
imum Of 1O1 in December, 1904, an in.
crease Of 81 per cent. This is the
largest prison population since Ward
