One year ago a cause cslebr* was on
trial In the probate court room of this
city. The county commissioners were
practically on trial for violation of of-
ficial duty. Hensley was aiding in the
prosecution and sitting with the law-
yers of that side. He did not have
the county printing. Today the county
commissioners aru on trial for viola-
tion of official duty of the same nature
then charged against the then commis-
sioners. Hensley sits on the side of
the defense and sneers at the charges.
He now has- the county printing.
The old adage never fails to apply >“
Hensley’s case.
