BY JUDGE SKEEN
Indicted Men in Lee County
Election Cases Will Seek
|| Change of Venue.
tPprclal to The TImos-DIspatch.]
Bristol, V.i . June 26.?Xewi of the
Tumblings of discontent conic from
JonesVllle, the county tout of '.ee. us a
result of the recent decision of the
State Supreme Court sustaining Judge
Skecn. of the Circuit Court, In lining
l'lannary for having refused to testify
as to whether he bought the vote of
u certain man for certain candidates.
The more tnan l.'0u men now under In
diotinent, charged with having partic?
ipated In elc Itldn briberies in thut
county, mid their friends are said to
be an> thing but pleased, nnd It Is In
tlmatcd that trouble may yet follow
us a result of anonymous threats made
against the court. It is said that there
Is in' feeling against the Court of Ap?
peals, but that the trouble comes as
t!;c result of what was embodied in tho
brief of Judge K. W. Penhlngton, who
v.-.is appointed by the- court to represent
the Commonwealth before the higher
court.
The decision, it Is said, Is net calcu?
late;! to quiet the troubled waters in
Lee county very much, and a commo?
tion among those indicted is saiil to be
not unlikely. Discussing the situation,
a Lea county man who Is more or less
familiar with the details, said:
"1 am informed, whether correctly
so or not. that the next movement on
tlie part of the indicted men and their
friends, as well ns a great many citi?
zens of both parties who were not In?
dicted, but who are opposed to tho
methods adopted, will petition Judge
f'keen. asking that he desist from try-,
ing tile bribery cases and permit some
other fudge to try the election cases, i
er certify them to the several Justices
of the peace In the county for trial,
s .ping that they ennnot get an Im- |
jirti.il trial in his court."
"Will any of the indicted pcorlo leave
the 'ounty?'1 was asked.
"So f.ir ns I know, none of these'
fople has left the county nor will I
sny one do so, if 1 am correctly ad?
vised. 1 am told that they arc follow?
ing the advice of their counsel to stand
trial when they have to and mako th->
best fight possible."
The case.- are set for hearing In An
gist, beginning on tne 19 th. Tho
question sought to have decided by
counsel for the defense In the Flannary I
cafe, hiving been obscured by other'
Ist 'es, was left undecided, and it is;
Intimated that many people of fhe j
county win not be reconciled with ref?
erence to the election business until!
other questions that will come up In j
the trial of future cases are decided
by the Supreme Court.
The organization of a company at
