Attorney Costello Replies

In reply, Attorney Costello said:
"Payot may believe he Is unbiased, but
as a matter of fact he has already
tried. convicted and executed my
client. Professor Bush would have no
more chance of justice with a board
composed of men in the frame of mind
of Payot than a missionary would
have in the hands OF band Of canni-
balls, or deer with jury of hounds,
or a lamb with a jury of wolves, OF a
MADEIRA county farmer in the hands of
a bunch Of San Francisco bunko men,"
In taking the matter under resolu-
ton, Judge Conley said he had an
idea that under the law of this state
absolute disqualification must be
shown before a member OF the board
could be prevented from sitting. The
Judge added that he himself would
have no hesitation in accepting Payot
as a juror If he were on trial, but ASA
matter of propriety he thought the
director. having been charged with
bias and prejudice, should not sit.
Alumni Supports Bush
At special meeting of the Poly
technic high school alumni association
held last night at the Ashbury District
Improvement Club hall resolution was
passed protesting against the prosecu-s
ton Of the charges of incompetency
against Walter NJ Bush by the board OF
education, and indorsing the position of
Principal Bush in the stand he has
taken in the matter.
The resolution states that Bush is
known to the members of the alumni
association as IAN upright and COM
petent instructor and principal who al
ways upheld the dignity Of his Office,
and that of his associates at the poly
technic high school, as we'll as enforced
the proper discipline among the stu
Dents
The resolution was officially signed
by Marion vecki, the attorney, who is
president of the alumni. as well as by
Mildred G. Levy. the secretary, and en-
crossed copies of the resolution were
Immediately prepared and forwarded
to each member Of the board of edu-
cation, as we'll as to Principal Bush.
Another resolution was passed in
structing Vecki to appoint as soon as
possible a committee of three of the
alumni to confer with Bush and aid
him in every way possible in preparing
his defense, and conducting his case
before the board.

BUSH IS VICTOR
in COURT BRUSH
Judge Insists That Accusations
Against Principal Bush Must
Contain the Details

Judge Conley decided yesterday that
the charges against Principal Walter
N. Bush, of the polytechnic high
school. are not sufficiently specific, and
directed that the school teacher be
furnished with details of the accusa-
lions made against him. The matter
was before the court for hearing of
the application made by Attorney
Stephen V. Costello for a writ prohib-
iting the board trying Bush because
of the general nature of the charges,
and because Director Payot had an
nounced his opinion that the principal
is guilty. The question of Payot's
qualification to sit on the board was
taken under submission, although
Judge Conley stated it to be his opin-
ion that as a matter of propriety
Payot should not off1ciate in the trial.

law Bush was not entitled to have
more specific accusations made. but
finally said he would amend the
charges.

qualification, English pointed out that
the director, while admitting he be-
lieved Bush guilty, had said he was

S. r. Nelson, Co. A, Merrill Cav,
Lawrence. Kan, says that he was at
Little Rock in 1868, and stood near
when the two men were hung. They
were a Captain and Lieutenant of a
company of Home Guards, who had
been organized with the avowed pur-
pose of hanging all citizens who took
the oath after Gen. Steele captured that
place. The heavy-set man, was Capt.
John earnest. He refused to talk,
looked straight ahead and showed no
signs of fear or emotion. The tall. red
headed man was, | think, Lieut.. Law
renee. He made a short speech, in
which he declared he was about to die

son says that ne was with the 29th Iowa
during the fight for the train at Arka-
delphia, Ark. where they fought bat

stayed with Davis as long as he could
travel publicly When they got to
Washington, Ga, Davis divided the
money that he had carried with him
from the Confederate Treasury az
Richmond, and gave each man $26. S2I
in silver and So in gold. Mr. Gattis
says that three wagons disappeared one
night, and that none of the boys knew
where they went or what they took
with them. The money that they got
was carried in a little cherry chest,
nicely vanished and with brass hinges
and locks. Other soldiers got some of
the money, but not as much as they
did He was parOled on May 9. 1865,
at Washington, Ga. He would like to
inquire of some of the Ohio soldiers
who were captured at a bridge on the
Memphis & Charleston Railroad in
January, 1865, regarding that incident.
He remembers Lieut.. Wagner, Serg't
Bailey and John Bailey. He has for
gotten their regiment, but remembers
that they were jolly fellows. He also
remembers Badly Hellow. whom he
took to a well one cold morning for
him to take a bath. He would like to
hear from any of the boys, and says
that he is a constant reader of The
National Tribune. and that he enjoys
the stories of the boys who fought
against him immensely. He says we
are now all living under the same Old
Glory, and that the facts as they hap
pened need offend no one.

out on the skirmsh line. After time
Serg't John GueSters looked around and
saw n cloud of dust which he knew
was not raised by our forces. lie spoke
to his Captain about it, and said that if
they stayed there they would surely be
taken prisoners. The Captain would
not listen to him, and said that he was
ordered there and would stay and told
,Serg-t Guesters to remain where he
was. The Sergeant talked to his
"bunkie' about the matter, and told
him that he would rather disobey the
Captain than be taken prisoner, and
the two made a break for safety. The
Captain and all with him were taken
by the rebels and more than half of
them periShcd in rebel prisons. Com
rade Bush says that Serg't Guesters re-
ported to his Colonel the next day. and
he was praised for his disobedience.
