He stated that there was no justice to be had at Tenstrike, that there was only one good man in that town and that the town ‘only had 50 inhabitants but nevertheless pol- led 160 votes. He also took a crack at our enterprising real estate and cedar man, Chas. Car- ter, which was entirely uncalled for and did not strengthen ‘his case in tne least. Funkley may want a county office in the future and the Tenstrike people will re member him with a big ‘“goose aye,” one vote less than what he received here last fall. His abuse for Tenstr.ke, kowever, no bearing on the jury nor the judge. Mr. Funkley states that in his speech to the jury- he did not make the assertions credited to him by the Tribune and that he did only what any reputable at- torney would do for a client.
