Alva Review: j. A. Vandemark has
sold his fine farm near Zula, to Mr..
Slocum. of Nardin. Ok, for $24OO. Mr..
Vandemark had fine bearing orchard
and groves OF trees planted by himself,

and it helped to sell his farm at a rate
which he thinks paid him 800 for each
year he cultivated them. Mr.. Vande-
mark was member of the board of
county commissioners in 1895 and 1895
and is in every way reliable. He ex-

Things do not seem to be altogether
lovely between the county Commission
ers and Ex-Clerk F. E. Read. MIR.
head has 80 far not made settlement
OF the affairs of his Office and it Is CLAIM
cd by some that there is a shortage.
Mr. Read denies this and claims that
the county is indebted to him. The
matter was discussed in commissioners
court last week and 1t was mutually
agreed that settlement be POSTPONED
until the April meeting when there
will probably be checking up. There
have been all kinds of stories afloat and
men of all political faiths have given
them circulation, but in the absence of
an investigation we can do nothing but
await developments. The INDEX de-
slres to treat Mr.. Read fairly in this
matter SO as not to lay ourselves liable
to making an unjust criticism which
might be attributed to partisan malice.
and hence withhold ANYTHING that
might create public prejudice. We are
not unmindful of the manner in which
republican Board of Commissioners
handled ex- County Clerk Gaddie, whose
honesty nobody doubts, but at the same
time we would not counsel an Injustice
on Mr.. Read at the hands Of a fusion
Board. All the people desire is to know
the truth. Give Mr.. Read what is his.
and to the county that which belongs
to it.

CLEAN UP.

With the advent of spring comes the
demand for clean streets and alleys and
general burning up of old subbish. 1t
not only adds to good appearances
generally, but it improves sanitary con-

tDat every citizen should constitute

devote few hours to the work each
day until the city is rid of all it's rub
Dish, and we believe the suggestion is a
good one. Ii every citizen will agree
