He asserts that A the state is short by reason of A ! Colonel Neal'a actions to the ex- A j tent of about $2,600 and he goes B . into details to preve it. C Mr. Bollinger quotes the gov- C ernor's Message to him in refer- C ence to the Neal ail'air, and *a's C ! practically that the governor D ' acted on sentiment rather than F law. E , Mr. Bellinger was the prose- G cuting officer in the Neal case and G he thinks that under tbe circum K stances a statement should come L from him. L The general public epinion in L Columbia endorses the governor's M actioD in pardoning Colonel Neal. M Tbe saivte sentiment is prohanly N prevalent elsewhere.
