Palmer and George Tretohler ex pressed prejudice against Professor EiiRlehardt and that the district at torney's office had promised to pay the expenses of Csrl SMider from California and had failed to do so. The st Me contended that tha plea was far fetched, that no promises were made to return Bteider as a wit ness at county expense, and that the attack on the Jurors alleging preju dice was dlsgruntlement of counsel at losing the case.
