BEHIND
HERALD DEMAND
OF COURT PROBE
LAWYERS AND CITIZENS AP-
PROVE ATTITUDE ON ATTOR-
NEY GENERAL.
BELIEVE THAT JUDGE WILL ACT
Declared That It Is Situation That
Is Utterly IntoIerabIe and One That
Must Be CVorrected at the Earliest
Possible Moment.

Commentator of The Herald S
course in demanding an investigation
of the absence of the attorney general
and rumors and reports rejecting
upon his conduct have poured in upon
the paper. They have come by tele-
phone and also by personal message,
Members of the bar of Columbia have
been among the first to see the editor
personally or telephone their approval
of the course of the paper.
Let me thank and congratulate
The Herald on its course" said one
of the leading members of the bar this
morning. This is not personal. 1t
is simply an intolerable condition If
the charges so generally circulated
against the attorney generals conduct
should prove false, the court owes it
tC its future usefulness to demon
strate that fact to the satisfaction of
the public. If they are true then we
have no court that can properly func-
ton in the execution of the law, the
primary duty of the circuit court"
In addition to lawyers many of the
citizens of the county have called at
The Herald office and commended its
course. I'VE have fought too long"
said one veteran of many campaigns
for law and order, ito have all our
labors lost in this crisis. Surely Judge
Turner is going to follow the path
so we'll marked out by The Herald.
| do not think that he will disappoint
his friends

LITTLE DAMAGE TO
MEAT IS EXPECTED
FARMERS WHO KILLED LAST
WEEK THINK THAT THEIR
PORK is SAFE.

Very little concern is felt by farm
ers who killed hogs during the early
part of last week because of the
warm weather that followed the cold
spell" On last Monday and Tuesday
thousands of hogs were butchered in
the county, but most of those who
killed then declare that they had
enough cold to destroy all the animal
heat in the carcasses. If the meat
becomes thoroughly chilled when it is
killed and before being packed down
there is very little danger of any loss.
Where the farmers killed their hogs
later on in the week and the weather
had turned warm, Their els a possibili-
ty of loss. But not many did this.

INVESTIGATION OF THE Is. .
ABSENCE OF GEN. WHITE.
NOT ORDERED BY COURT

Opments in the controversy as to why
the attorney general of his circuit
had failed to function during the past
several days. The whole court, bar,
attaches and onlookers was all agog
this morning over The Herald's DEM
and for a judicial investigation Of the
alleged conduct of the attorney gen
eral Considerable surprise was ex-
pressed when it was ascertained that
Judge Turner had left the city, but
his friends stated that he had made
an engagement to try a case at Pu-
laski before the developments in the
attorney generals case came up.
That Judge Turner had some doubt
about the attorney generals appear
ance today was shown in provision
made by him for the selection OF an
attorney general protein. Major Hor-

Before leaving the city Judge Turner
requested Charles P. Hatcher, OF the
local bar, to try this case, and he
also requested that in the event Gen
White did not show up" that Hon.
l.. z. Turpin, of the local bar, be
named as attorney general pro TEN.
When Gen. White appeared Mr.. Tur-
