SAYS FEES
ARE EXORBITANT

Charlton. April Judge Hunter fin
ished up the probate and equity bust
ness in the district court Friday after
noon and adjourned until today, when
the law cases were taken up. Before
a~dlourning he rendered a decision in
the Johnston estate case. He spoke
OF the exorbitant attorney fees which
had been paid and the careless man
ner in which the estates had been
handled: also the failure of the admin
istrator to list the assets Of the es-
tates with the assessor, and ordered
the administrator. Mr.. Johnston, to
turn over to the clerk of the courts
the balance due the estates, and to
personally pay all the costs incurred
on the hearing of the objections to his
final reports and the two estates to be
relieved of the payment of attorney
fees rendered in connection with that
hearing. He also directs the clerk OF
the courts, when these funds are de.
with him, to call upon the
county treasurer and ascertain the
amount Of taxes which should have
been assessed and paid against this
property and pay the same out of tbs
belonging to the estate.
