Court At GaIena
Nov. 10th.
May Be Necessary to Cut 0ctO-
Der Term Short-The Jurors
for the Galena Session.

The regular November term OF
the Cherokee County district
court will convene at Galena the
morning of November 10th, and
unless the wheels of justice
should quicken, the 0ctober term
at Columbus will be cut short.
There are yet many civil jury
cases to be tried and so far little
attention has been given the
court cases. 1t will probably be
necessary to hold an adjourned
session in Columbus after the
November term closes at Galena.
Thirty-six jurors have been
drawn for the Galena session.
They are:
Charles Mitchell, Columbus.
C. G. Worthington, Galeua.
Tom Holland, East Mineral.

maries had not intruded themselves
upon the intelligence of our citizen

terously, carried out the orders of
Boss Roger.
Wilson had "the intestines" to join
the bipartisan combination that put
that great statesman, VIM. LOrimer,
in the senate of the United States.
Before the foolish people of Chi
cago started howl of disapprOVal,
Wilson, still in the good graces of
Boss Roger, was elected alderman
from the 9th ward, but no sooner
was he installed in Office than the
cry about the Bipartisan gang"
awoke his constituents to a sense Of
their extreme glory in having just
elected such a distinguished citizen.
When he came back for reelection
his Republican opponent was mar
coticed into the belief that by not
exposing Wilson's Bipartisan" leg

ers of the newsbOy senator would
support him instead of Wilson at the
polls.
But, alas! blood was thicker than
water and the followers Of William

Wilson back to the council.
There was just one ordinance that

ordinance-the ordinance that per-
mitted Field to tunnel under Wash
