proof that lie fears the truth and
hopes to longer deceive the people
by his brazen demagoguery. But
his days are numbere as governor
of Arkansas. The people will not

Judge Wood should follow him and

NAktN LII sNAANtiN@aitN@s
A Times man had q conversation
with Capt. James FusselI few days
ago and the topic Of conversation
drifted to school matters and 10
Crowley Ridge Institute.
Capt. Russell is 4 member of the
school board and We take what he
mas to say on this subject As a Sc.
rious matter which confronts the
taxpayers Of Forrest City School
District MOI And also, be being
in a position to know what be IS
talking about, the Information he
gave US can be depended upon as
the truth ard as being reliable ans
well authenticated.
Capt. Russell informs Us that
there are now enrolled at Crowley
Ridge Institute upwards Of 900 pu-
pills, and that the rooms ere so
crowded as to not only make il
uncomfortable, but really unsaui.
tary, and that two additional
rooms are soreIy needed, and il
fact must be provided.
He also states that the present
heating arrangement Is insult cient
and out Of date, and that some sort
of an up-to date heating apparatus
preferably steam-must soon be
installed.
Pursuing the conversation fur.
Their aud to . logical conclusion he
informed US that there are no funds
available in the treasury for this
purpose, and t therefore beAoo7es
those interested in the free public
school Of this town to meet IN mass
meeting and devise ways and
means to meet the emergency.
There seems bat one way to do
this, so Tar as We can see, and that
IS for the school board to call
mass meeting to which shall 3e
'tated the facts, and there and then
take public subscriptions for
this purpose. to be supplemented /.
BY a canvass Of the town by a |
accredited committee.
The Times states these necessl-
ties to the public that it may be
advised of them, and that It may
govern Itself accordingly, It is
condition that must be met sooner
or later, and the sooner the better.
There IS no use to prolong the
matter OF make any unnecessary
10 do about it.
Just let the school board call the
meeting and state the case, and we |
have that confidence in fhe pro-
5rsssive spirit and the enterprise |
and pride of Forrest City's c.ti-
zenry that makes US believe the
hing is done.
Only a leader IS needed. The |
school board is the proper one to
lead.
All who have children to educate

others who have no children, bat
10 have local pride in the town.

important Decision Limiting
Company's Responsibility
Respecting Agents Acts
DEFENDANT IN DAMAGE SUIT
Mrs. Frank Bowen, Of Ben Glare, S. D.,
Sought to Recover $4,000 From the
Illinois Central For the Death of
Tier Husband at the Hands of Sta
ton Agent steasaIsl.
,ial to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican,
Sioux Falls, S. D.. April l5.--Judge
Garland, of the United States Circuit
court has handed down a decision in
a case which establishes a new prece-
dent in that there is not another case
OH record like it.
The case is one in which the Illinois
Illinois Central road was sued for
$4,000 by the widow of a man killed
by one of their station agents. IA. A.
Steagald. formerly a resident of Ken
lucky, but later an employee of the
Central in the capacity of station
agent at Ben Clare had become in
Frank Bowen. a prominent stochnia n
and resident Of the town of Ben Glare.
During the argument it is alleged that
Bowen threatened to kill Steagald.
The latter evidently believed the threa.
sincere and prepared himself. A few
days later Bowen entered the station
on an errand Of business but showed
no disposition to carry out his threat.
His 14-year-old boy accompanied him.
Before he left the agent asked him to
sign receipt book belonging to the
company. Bowen signed his initials,
but made a long scratch in lieu of
his proper name Steagald drew a
revolver and fired. Bowen attempted
to retreat, but the agent followed him
Bowen's son stepped between the men
just as the agent fired, the ball striking
the boy but not INJECTING serious
wound. Steagald then fired two nore
shots killing Bowen instantly. AS soon
as Bowen fell MORALLY wounded, Stea
gald went to the telegraph instrument
and wired for the sheriff to come and
get him, giving an account at the time
of his crime. He was tried in the dis
trict court and acquitted on the
charge Of insanity. Later he was re-
leased by the asylum authorities.
The widow then sued the Illinois
Central road for $2o.0o0 alleging thu
company was responsible for the act
of their agent for the death OF her
husband. The case was placed In the
hands of the best attorneys and
fierce battle was waised before Judge
Garland. The attorneys for the de-
Tense asked the judge to instruct the
jury TO bring in' a verdict of acquittal
on the ground that the act OF the agent
was not within the scope Of his en-
ployment. Judge Garland took the mat
ter under advisemert and the next
morning handed down written opin-
ion granting the plea of the defendants
attorneys.
This is the first case on record in
.dfiCCFschoolztw :sHRDLUcMFWY
which they limit OF railway COM
pany's responsibility with respect to
its agents acts has been defined un-
der similar circumstances. The case
has attracted wide attention both In
this and neighboring states. and Will
be taken to the court of appeals.
