has made out a strong case SO far
against Yokonovich Notwithstanding
the strenuous efforts of the defense
to discrcdit by a grilling cross-examin-
alton. Many humorous invidcnts oc-
Cured during the trial.
Probably the most significant thing
about the trial is the fact that on the
suggestion of the prosecution the jury
men were required by Special Judge
Charles Hanly to remain in the court
room until after the verdict is re-
turned.
This was done to prevent anything in
the way of intimidation or bribery and
indicates the Importance of the case in
its relation to those which are to fol-
low
Among those who testified was Paul
Bodich, Fred Friedley. Emerson Bowser
and others Sheriff Thomas Grant was
the principal witness for the state yes
terdar.
Grant told of Yokonovich hating him
with revolver and ordered him not to
enter the election booth. Grant said
he knocked up the gun, covered Bodich
with his revolver while he led Yokono-
vich to an auto and took him to the
republican headquarters under arrest

Grants cross examination was con-

of his encounter with Yokonovich Said
he did not know the politics of his
deputies when he appointed them Said
he had not been over active in assist
ing the prosecution, but admitted that
he had secured affidavits against the
change of venue application. Did not
recall whether he had contributed to
the fund raised to assist the prosecu-
ton. but did not solicit contributions.
Witness was excused after he had re
piled in the affirmative to the judges

Emerson Bowser was recalled, and

ground that it proved nothing.

 OF FRANKLIN COUNTY
Mir. Duncan Says Its Agricultural Possibilities and ResOuces
 Are Unlimited

TO the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 noticed in your paper of July IA, lsll' ,n an article written by MT. Will w. Nelson, from Decatur the following state ment
 "Onlv a few years ago it was next to ;r,nossihle to make a living farming the mountain lands of Franklin county.
 In his enthusiasm for the proposed new railroad. MT. Nelson has underestimated the apricultural resources of Franklin county.
 By referring to the 1900 census report we find that Franklin county produced in 1899 s1. .197. .6S5 worth of farm products. This estimate includes only the leading farm crops and the leading live stock products, It does not include the hay, most of the garden vegetables, poultry, eggs, butter and other minor produce. If these had been estimated they would have run up into the thousands of dollars. This same census report shows that only 2s per cent of the tilable area of the county was under cultivation when the above crops were produced. It Is true that the agri- cultural lands were undeveloped at this time. but for the small area under cui- tivation. only % acres in every 100, the above is a splendid showing.
 In the northern and eastern portion or Franklin county lies Russells valley. The strong red and dark lime lands Of the Blue Grass country in Kentucky, and the clover lands of Tennessee. In the south ern and western part of the county the soil is a. sandy loam with clay sub-soil. The new country homes. and the crops of this part of the county are excellent evil dences of the capacity of this soil and the prosperity of the people
 lived for 21 years on farm in Frank lin county, and since that time have made freouent trips into all parts of the coun- ty. I know from experience and obser- vation of the fine farming lands in Frank lin county and of the prosperity and thrift of her people. I have also travelled in every county in Alabama, and In all parts of the country. and l know of no county or section where the land is more capable and the people more prosperous.
 Franklin county is richly endowed with iron ore and lime. stone deposits. and the development of these resources has certainly been worth millions of dollars. Put the future wealth of the county as in the past will depend upon the pro- ducts of her fertile soil. Yours very truly, l.. N. DUNCAN,
