Case Well Presented.

The city attorney made his argument
so that 1t covered all the ground. He
touched on the constitutionality OF the
act, for the consttutionalty had been
nssaied. and then covered the ground
thoroughly In dealing with evidence on
the merits of the case. Referring to tho
map he declared that so long as the
territory now known as the Reservoir re-
NAMED in the county 1t would he me-
mace to Richmond.
Mr. Pollard submitted figures showing
that Richmond could at this time issue
about three millions OF dollars In bonds,
and when any one attacked the financial
condition OF the city 1t could only he
treated without consideration, he de-
tclnred. "Erom the ashes Richmond has
rsen until she has reached the very
npex In financial ability and RESPONSE
fbllIly. unchnllenged IN her position, she
stands ns the mistress OF the South in
Financial ranking" he said, In IN orato-

Mr. Pollard concluded Ills argument
by reviewing the Witnesses who hnd
testified for the city and he pnld glow

Volunteered to come forward aud say
