RECORD Of Man Under Arrest Aere.
That +. l.. Jackson, one of the two
men under arrest for the robbery OF
the Il. r. Lay store. Is a desperate
character the police, since the investl l.
CATION began, have been confident.
Their belief was substantiated yester-
day when Marshal Nicholson received
q telegram from the chief of police OF
Danville, ILL.,, Jacksons home, which
said that Jackson had killed man
there Whatever the nature Of this
crime, or the circumstances which sur
round 1t may have been, Jackson is
evidently not wanted there now, for
twenty-four hours have elapsed sincs
the message was received, and nothing
further has been heard from the OFF,
Ger.
Following clues, which have led them
to Cedar Rapids, Clinton and Waterloo
the officers have been busy for the past
few days. But so far what success
may have attended their efforts is not
known, as they refuse to give out any
definite information, and whether they
have any conclusive evidence which
will lead to conviction is not known.
Had 1t not been that Ritter, the 9TH
err man implicated. discovered he was
being Swallowed by the police, the ar
rests would not have been made, but
the officers would have waited and
watched until the fence" where the
goods are could have been discovered.
OFFICER Edgar was placed on Ritter's
trail the night preceding the arrest.
Ritter was drunk, but was sober
enough to recognize the policeman 'lnd
turning on him demanded to know
what he meant by following him.
Knowing then that his suspicion was
aroused. both Ritter and his pal We're
arrested lest they should escape
Jackson has been representing that
he is in the employ Of an eastern pot
terry house, and he and Ritter bav"
been driving the rural districts near
the city Offering pottery for sale. A
shipment of the goods was received by
him but short time ago.

LOCAL COMMENT

The interest manifested in the good
roads meeting last week, Is an evidence
of the possibilities that are in store
for Marshall county, providing the
good intentions of the different town
ship boards are lived up to. There Is
no reason why Marshall county should
not have the best of country roads in
a few years, where now some Of them
are practically impossible at eertai;,
times of the year. 1t has been demon-
strated that the King drag, while SIM
pie in conservation and easy to nper-
ate, is ptad,cel In every sense OF the
word, and that its use, when tie roads
are muddy, will result in smooth,
hardbaked thoroughfares as soon as
the weather clears and the sun ccines
out. After rains will not affect the
roads as they would the ruts and holes
left when they first dry up but instead
will permit the water to drain off and
have ne sood effect of laying the dust.
There is nothing in the way of pub
lie improvements that will result In
such general good as perfect country
reads. Tha railroads are Interested, of
course, for good roads mean an equal-
cation of freight traffic at SEASONS
when the business is expected and
plans are made to handle it. The mer-
chants and business men Of a trading
center are interested because good
roads mean that the farmers, y'iil mar
ket their produce at regularly stated
intervals, and do more or less trading
when they are in town. Last, but not
least, the farmers are interested, be-
cause good roads mean that they are
enabled to market their produce,
stock, poultry and eggs when they will
bring the best prices. and do not have
to put off their trips to market centers
until the roads are passable. Conse-
uuently good roads mean a benefit to
all, and all should work toward COM
mon end, in making out OF Marshail
county not only the best bridged coun-
ty In the state, but the county that VIII
be patterned after in road building.
1t was not many years ago since the
trustees of the Marshalltown public
library were called upon to determine
upon site for the pretty pubic build
ing that adorns the corner of State and
Center streets. There were many sus-
gestions offered as to location, and the
old market place site, which had been
an eyesore to the town for years. was
ridiculed by many of the more en-
thusiastic in their criticism, as one ut
terly unfit to build upon. One of the
principal objections was that the
building would not show off to advan-
tage to visitors in the city, who would
have to "look for the library" in order
to find it. A year or so later it devel-
oped upon a few enterprising citizens
to secure site for the new govern
ment building. which is now being
erected at the corner of Church and Cen
ter. The same objections raised by
few citizens when the library was built
were again brought to public notice
