R KURTZ FEMS OF st} Regular Price When Paid in Ad When subseriptions years § t Lo will he dito y TURNPIKE CAS) Argument for n pike ease was heard | Tuesday along that His Hon in the case, admitted testimony company that ruled out The fact that 812.800 an almost worthless piece of property at atterno for the NT wig not legitimate, and vid | [ Np? » evidence thal Was 3 i was awarded for once evinced that something was wrong. Of course, to impugne the course of His Honor in any case, is considered bad taste, but as all are human, will attri. bute it to erroneous ruling, same as the attorneys specified it. His Honor holds that the amount of damages is what it would cost to erect a road in a similar condition to the pres. ent pike. He claims it has no market value as none of the stock is for sale. Now it is evident to any person of or- dinary inteligence that a turnpike is valuable according to its earnings. Be- fore the railroad was built from Lemont the earnings were very large but since then, travel very enough to give now with a small ago when it was a young mint for the stockholders. The position of His Honor is so inconsistent that any 10 year old boy could see the fallacy of his argument. It is simply unreasonable and why he so persistently clings to that idea, we cannot explain. His Honor can not endure newspaper criticism. Attorney John Love well knew this fact and attempted to win the good graces of the Court by denouncing this and other papers of the county for dar- ing criticise the trial of this #12800 case. Mr. Love grew quite eloquent and waxed exceedingly warm. It was a speendid effort, pleased the Court and amused your humble servant more ,who sat there allalone. As Mr. Love waxed more eloquent a deeper tinge of red crept up the back of his neck, and it was then that that old biblical excla- mation eame in our mind: “Why do the Heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?” For the moment th Court and Attorneys forgot in issue and discussed the county papers. r A is less and the earnings are would be small, and who dupe as much for this pike income as ten vears eo Se Of course they made out that the news. et r 3 papers did not amount to Tey anyth i at the same time were 1 Vil spent considerable valuable riving at this remarkable wins The argument was closed by Bower, Esq., in some as to the right i the duty of th Whether the whole be dismissed or 1 M.
