ing attorney, was in court and an
nounced TO Judge Connolly that he
would submit a request to the court
that II vaeate it's order for n grand
jury on the ground that a circuit
court grand jury wculd have wider
jurisdiction, since n could cover

ity OF a recorders court grand jury
Mr. VOORHEES, frankly told the court
that I'm the event OF the recorder
refusing to waive bis right TO hold a

second with one car to every II in
habitants Nebraska and South Da-
kota had one for every 10. Arkansas

The New England states were more

The prosperous corn-belt states also
showed fairly uniform distribution of

Wells spoke very highly of the kind

He had not the same good word to

Wells told, too, of military order

all the citizens to wear wooden clogs,
