Trees to Remain.
The members of the county court
have decided that the trees on the
King street side OF the court house
shall remain as they are. Recently
the street committee of the city coun-
Gil directed the court to remove the
trees, preparatory to the laying Of the
new concrete sidewalk, and the court
promptly caused the removal Of those
on the Queen street side of the court
house. The sidewalk has progressed
to that point where the Queen street
portion has been completed, and work
on the broad stretch on King street
commenced.

NO SHERIFF FOR 27 YEARS
Kentucky County Dispenses With
Peace Officer to Avoid a Suit

GLASGOW, Ky, Feb. 4-The swear
ing In OF Edmond r, Perkins as Sheriff
OF Green county revealed the fact that
this is the first Sheriff for Green coun-
ty for over twenty-seven years. The
history of this county in regard to this
office is interesting.
According to the records. W. L, Mudd
was the last Sheriff of Green county to
serve a full term and perform all the
duties of the office. He made bond in
open County court January, 1878 and
served until July Z, 1879, when the
County court met and relieved him as
Sheriff but at the same time accepted
his bond as special collector, since
which time no Sheriff has qualified un
I'll the present year. This peculiar state
OF affairs was made necessary by the
determined opposition to taxation to
pay even interest on bonds Issued by
the coInty.
Recent rulings by the higher courts
relieve the county of that burden of
debt. which originally amounted to
$3.50, 600. and was swelled to three times
that sum by interest.

James Z. Powell Given Liberty
on Writ of HabeaS

Judge Armstrong granted the applica-
ton Of James L. Powell for release from
the county jail. Saturday, on a writ of
about thirty days ago to thirty days in
jail and TO pay a fine OF $50. the prisoner
TO serve one day for each dollar of tho
fine IL 1t was not paid in addition to tho
thirty days first served. The Jail sentence
having been served. Powell contended
that he could noe be imprisoned longer.
Judge Armstrong Comedies.
This view was taken by Judge Arm
strong, VINO based his decision upon an
opinion OF the Supreme court OF the
State, handed down In November, 1900.
In the case of Harry J Roberts VS. Sher-
III Howells In this case the Supreme
court held.
What Supreme Court Held.
when the Legislature enacted these
provisions OF the statute. providing for
the punishment of an offense by fine and
imprisonment, or both, t. was not con-
templated that when a punishment by
Imprisonment was imposed that there
after another should be added because
and punishment by Imprisonment is
greater than by fine. Such Judgment
would be excessive. in that II would I'M
pose Imprisonment for non-payment OF II
debt or fine, due TO the State after the
right TO punish by Imprisonment had been
exhausted. In such case the State must
resort to its execution for the collection
of It's fine as I'm case at law
Was Majority Opinion.
In this opinion Justices Miner and
Bartch concurred and Justice Baslln dis
