A GOOD RECORD.
But One Indictment Quashed Since James
V. Murray Became District Attorney.
An examination of the court records
discloses the fact that since Jamos V.
Murray took charge of the district at
torney's office but one Indictment has
been quashed by the court, and the
quashing of this lone indlctmont was by
reason of a defective constable's return.
This is Indeed an enviable record and
shows an attention to detail on the
part of the district attorney which is
worthy of commendation. Mr. Murray
has been thorough In every department
of his work as district attorney and the
fact that be has bad bis cases well in
hand has been of marked assistance to
Judge Reed In the rapid and economical
handling of the vast amount of work
transacted in the criminal court. Mr.
Murray is now before the people as a
candidate for re-election. Brookville
