sale from now on. The mill, Installed
and equipped at considerable expense
will fill a lung-felt want. Up to the

and F. W. D. Mays were also charged
with having a hand in writing the arti
cle. Gibson and Fitzmaurlce were hon
orably acquitted of the charge, while
Mays was convicted upon his own tes

Immediately after the acquittal of
Fitzmaurlce, Prosecuting Attorney A.
