 son and Merrill.
 Tyree A. Johnson, of Edwardsviiie' and w. B. Merrill, of Hefiin, were yes terday appointed by Governor Jelks as Judge and Solicitor, respectively or the CIeburne County Court.
 The Legislature of 1905 passed an act abolishing this court but the Su- preme Court has decided recently that the act invalidating the court was uh- constitutional. This made it necessary for Governor Jelks to provide a Judse end Solicitor for the court.
 Mir. Merrill succeeds himself as so- iicItor. MT. Johnson was appointed as Judge in the place of Judge T. J. Bur ion. of Edwardsville, who was also an applicant. Judge Burton, It was sato' Ia in very poor health and his physical condition is such as to unfit him for a 1Iace On the bench. It was shown to fhe Governor that during the incumb- ency of Judge Burton large number of cases were continued as each ses- sion of the court owing to the Ill health of Judge Burton.
 Some of the most loyal friends or Judge Burton endorsed Mir. Johnson owing to the state of Judge Burton health. The new Judge is a prominent lawyer of Cleburne County. He Is the father of the Messrs. Johnson, editors or The Edwardsville Standard News.
 The contest over the Cleburne Coun- tv seat and the court officers brought a number of citizens of that county to Montgomery yesterday. Among them were Solicitor Merrill. Hon. A. A. Hurst former Probate Judge, and J. T. Boyd, Tax Collector of the county.

REPORTSOF EXAMINERS
OFFICIALS or FOUR COUNTIES ARE
 COMMENDED.
The Tax Values in Conecuh Arc Very Low--Correct Accounts fn Cher 0kee, DeKalb and Mar
 ahaI1

Reports on the condition of the books and accounts of tho officials of four counties were filed yesterday with Governor Jelks. The men who are In charge of the affairs of Conecuh. Cher okee, DeKalb and Marshall counties were commended by George F. Sed- berry. and w F. Wilkinson. Assist ant State Examiners of Public Ac- counts. Mir. Wilkinson reported on Conecuh County and MT. Sedberry on the other three.
 Without exception the officials are credited with being systematic ana painstaking. Some criticism Is lev eled by MT. Wilkinson at the low as- sessments of lands in Conecuh County and the accounts of 8. A. Lowry. former Superintendent of Education or that County are adversely criticised.
 Reporting on MT. Lowry's adminis- tration of the office Mir. Wilkinson says:
 '.The balance on hand when he turned over his office (to his success sor) was s219.s5., He had properly paid out the money to teachers but many of his papers were not in legal shape. While he had contracts with his teachers. he had failed to approve many of them and had not sent those to the State Superintendent for ap- proval as the law directs. In one dis- trict, No. 50, there was an overpay- ment of $4.3S which he promised to refund at once."
 Examiner Wilkinson reports that the average valuation of lands and im- provements in Conecuh County is $232 per acre.
 This Is entirely too low.' he says, ''but the Tax Commissioner has com menced proceedings to equallze values which will. if he is sustained by the Court of Commissioners largely tn- crease values for the year 1865"
 The tax book made up by Tax As sessor s. P, Dunn, examiner Wilkin- son says, is neat and correct.
 Other officials Of Conecuh County commended by MT. Wilkinson are: Hon. T. J. Dean. Probate Judge; w. w.. Bridges, Sheriff: s. l.. Tisdale, Clerk of the Circuit Court, and G. M. Harper. Superintendent of Education. Assistant State Examiner Sedberry reported on the books of the officers of Cherokee, DeKalb and Marshall coun- ties The only thing irregular was the overpayment by J. c. DeShields, Clerk of the Circuit Court of Marshall Coun- ty, of $15 in solicitors fees. The rce- ords of the office show this overpay- ment as do the records of the State Auditor. The money will be refunded to the officer.
 All the other offices are reported correctly administered, as follows:
 DeKalb County, ex-Judge of Pro- bate, W. c. D. Cook; Probate Judge J. A. Croley, Superintendent of Edu- cation NJ. J. Callen, ex-Superintendent T. J. Cook. Sheriff w. J. Chitwood.
 Marshall County-Probate Judge J. H. Carter, Clerk Circuit Court T. J. Hines, Sheriff c. z. Adamson.

ED McDUFFIE PAROLED
CONVICT MUST CARE FOR HIS AGED
 GRANDMOTHER.
Young Man of Butler County Who Was Convicted of Grand Larceny and Sent Up For Five
 

The fact that Ed. McDuffie, a young
 white convict of Butler County. has an aged grandmother with no one to sup
 port her. induced Governor Jelks tC grant him freedom from the shackles of the law.
 McDufie was granted a parole yes terday by the Governor condition ed | upon his caring for his grandmother and deportinE himself like a good citi-
 zen in the future.
 The young man was convicted in the
 Circuit Court of Butler County, May
 8. 1902. of grand larceNy and was sen
 fenced to serve five years in the pen
 itentiary. He has been leased to the
 Hand Lumber Company at Dolive for
 $6 a month.
 The specific charge against McDufie
 was that he stole some money. The Governor and the Board of Pardons had evidence that left room for doubt of his kuilt. Added to this was a
 strong letter from the trial Judge, Hon. J. c. Richardson, and Solicitor Charles R. Bricken recommending clemency Judge Richardson emphasized the fact that McDufie had an aged grandmoth- CT who was an object of public charity and suggested to the Governor that if the young man was freed the care of this old woman be made a condition of his parole.
 Lieutenant Governor Cunningham had practically promised to parole Mc- Duf1e when he retired from the Gov ernor'B office several weeks ago and on the recommendation of the Board of Pardons Governor Jelks yesterday issued the order that made McDuffie a free man so long as he complies with the conditions of his parole.
 In granting the parole Governor Jelks said:
 "The Board of Pardons and the Judge and Solicitor advise clemency for this young man. He has already served something oyer three of the five years sentence. His conduct during the time in the penitentiary has been good.
 Tt is ordered that the young man be paroled conditioned upon his future good conduct and the care of his old grandmother, who is very needy per son, and whose only support ne must in future be-"
