For the State.
Touching points Of the testimony
It was stated that ''the next day
Gregory endeavored to see Jones, but
could not do 50, as he was constantly
out Of town until March 81, when
he saw him and charged him with
having sent his wife in the room to
him. His reply was, it was submit
ted, not denial Of the charge, but
he merely said, "You or she one
lied" this being one Of the sensa-
tional bits of testimony.
The argument for the State pointed
out many other facts as to the testl-
mony.
The States position in regard to
the second charge that has caused so
much discussion is that the charge
should be considered as whole and
Solicitor OTIS argument states that
when this is done the charge itself
Will refute the argument of the de-
fense in regard thereto. One state
ment objected to and referred to IN
the States argument in refutlng the
same is:-''I will do so at the risk
that I might make some little slip IN
stating to you the law Of the case, -"
and the States argument says: "We
frankly confess that we do not see
what this exception means but the in
terpretation we put on it is that he
told the jury no matter what errors
Of law, slight or otherwise, he might
| commit, they would be REVISED by
the supreme court and any mistake
he made would be righted by that
COURT
| The State points out that "aside
| from all the alleged errors there re-
mains the testimony Of one witness
which alone is sufficient to warrant
the jury in rendering verdict OF
guilty"
This ease is very important one
and its decision by the supreme court
| will be far-reaehing one in either
case whether a new trial Is grant
ed or the supreme court aftirnns the
lower court for the question OF cir
cumstantial evidence plays quite "a
role in the cause and the charge OF
one Of the States circuit judges is
brought up for consideration.

 through the heather And bright are the waters rehectins o sweet is the song we Sre singing My river and I. My river and I are as one in the morn When the breath of Aurora is over
 the deeps, And one when the low, level sun is
 adorning The infinite steeps. o wide, are the waters with purity
 glowing, And fair are the fields that go gall
 1oping by! o sweet to us both Is the love beyond

 His creatures My river and I.
