WE BID THEE ADIEU.

With this issue of the RECORD,
the present lessee server his
connection with the publication
and the paper will be under the
management of Mr.. Eugene
Goodrich and VIM Orr. My as
sociations in some capacity with
this paper has extended over a
period of ten consecutive years.
During the past three years has
been under my individual man
agement and how | have succeed
ed in keeping it to the standard
under dull times and other
similar circumstances can only
be judged by its patrons. Like
many other business enterprises
however it has had its adversities
without the much anticipated
prosperity. But through all of
the dull times the RECORD has
survived and has been and is yet
and will continue to be one of
the substantial institutions Of
Southern Nevada, due to the
liberal patronage of the business
interests here. It's record, |
believe. has been clean and
reliable, there being one circum-
stance which would tend to mar
the pleasure or progress of any
one. That was the unfortunate
and irratic libel suit instituted
against the management of the
Record last November, on ac-
count of the publication of a
certain article which was pre-
cipitated by such acts that it be-
came the duty of the paper to
print. However the Grand Jury
In it's investigation vindicated
the RECORD.
During my associations with
the RECORD | have cultivated
many friends and acquaintance
all of whom | expect and hope
will extend their patronage and
good fellowship to my successors
Mr.. Eugene Goodrich and VIM
Orr, who in every way are
thoroughly competent and
worthy.
| desire to again extend my
thanks for the support that the
public has given the paper while
under my charge and asked fol
the new lessees thereto. As
Pioche is now on the eve of its
we'll merited mineral showing,
the main factor in giving to the
public the news most looked fol
is the daily or weekly paper, and
the public will surely receive the
same through the columns of the
Record under the new manage.

So-CaIIed Testimony.

''Mr. Jerome" says a dispatch
has three of the highest priced
insanity experts in the country
to testify for the state in the
Thaw case" These experts will,
of course, if Mr.. Jerome puts
them on the witness stand,
swear that the defendant was
not insane at the time he killed
Stanford White, and that he is
not insane now. In other words
they will take a position diametr-
ically opposite to that taken by
the Thaw experts, and the jury
will be no nearer an understand
ing of the situation than it would
have been if no experts at all
had been called as witnesses.
All of this brings us again to
the question of the real value of
so-called expert testimony. 1t
also reminds of an instance in a
famous New York case several
years ago. The suit was to SET
aside a will and the plaintiff who
testified that there was nc
question but the deceased was
insane.
"The deceased was insane, ;
testified the alienist in fact, hi!
mental condition was deplorable.
The lawyer for the defense
who knew the weakness of thu
alienist after a few preliminary
questions, asked the following
well DR.. -, what is you
opinion of the people generally
as to whether they are sane?
Every person that lives is in
sane" snapped back the alienis

are insane. :"

I lost the suit. -Ex.

Bourbon Circuit Court.

Since our last issue there has been
very little business transacted in the
Circuit Court. The progress of the
Court has been much delayed by
twenty-one of the thirty-six jurors
having been excused on account of ill
ness.
The first Commonwealth case was
that of Chas. Penn, charged with ma
liciously shooting at ]. Walker Muir.
This case took up all day Tuesday and
Wednesday, the jury assessing Mr..
Penn with fine of $50 and costs. Ar
guments were made by 7. E. Moore,
Jr., for the Commonwealth and Maurie
Kemper, of Lexington, for the de-
Tense.
After this case was ended Judge
Stout excused the petit jurors and all
witnesses until this morning at nine
O'Clock.
Judge Stout convened court yester-
day morning, although 1T being Thanks
giving Day, to hear several arguments
in equity cases, IN order to clear the
docket of many old cases.
The Commonwealth against Lewis
Bishop, charged with cutting and
wounding, will be the first case called
this morning. The Commonwealth
docket, which contains no very impor-
tant cases, will be cleared up before
any civil cases are taken up.
A number of important civil cases
will come on for trial, including the
suit for ten thousand dollars damages
of Sam Jet against Judge James Har-
gis and Senator Alex Hargis for alleg-
ed malicious prosecution. The case
was transferred from the Clark county
Circuit Court. The attorneys for Jet
areI Jouett, Byrd and Jouett, of Win
chester, and County Attorney T. E.
Moore, Jr., of Paris, while the defend
ants will be represented by Judge
Denis Dundon, C. M. Thomas and E.
NJ. Dickson, of Paris, John Nj. Steven
son, of Winchester, Judge j. G. c.
Back, of Jackson and w. A. Young.
Another important suit to be tried at
this term of court is that of Bourbon
county VS.. the Paris Water Company,
which is a suit for damages in the sum
of 500, 900 for the loss of the court
house fire IN 1903, the county alleging
that the destruction of the building
was due to the negligence of said
Water Company in that they failed to
furnish sufficient water power by
which a stream or streams of water
could be thrown a sufficient distance
to subdue the confiagratier.
The suit for damages in the sum of
$25, 900 of Mrs. Daisy Boone Bolts
against Mrs. Sarah Woolstein for
alleged SANDER will be among one of
the first cases called after Judge Stout
disposes of the Commonwealth docket.
