The Supreme Court ofthe United
States Monday affirmed the de-
cision of the District Court at st.
Louis, wherein Senator James R.
Burton was setenced to six months
imprisonment in the Iron county
jail and fined S2500 and costs. A
motion was at nee filed by the
defense for a stay of execution
and rehearing. 1t will probably
be several months before the Su-
preme Court passes on this matter,
but it looks very much like our
jail is going to have a real United
States Senator for a guest before
the year is out.
Dan Warren of Reynolds county
was arrested Monday night about
ten o'clock charged with drawing
a gun on Ed. Lewis of Annapolis
in Robert Rasche's restaurant,
near the depot. Warren claimed
Lewis owed him some money and
he was trying to collect it. Next
day Warren was taken before
Squire Fairchild, where he pleaded
guilty to carrying concealed
weapons and was sentenced to
eighty days in Jail. "Pistol tot
ing" is becoming altogether too
common in this section. There
are now three offenders in u Jail
serving sentences. Let the pen
atty be sufficient to put a stop to
the practice.
This is the way the De Soto Re-
publican sizes up the situation:
"The COWS run at large in our
beautiful city and leave filth on
our sidewalks and on our streets.
The COWS run at large and we have
to fence against them, at a cost in
the first instance to all of us OF
$50, 1000 and at an annual expense
thereafter of keeping the fences in
repair of $4,000. The COWS run at
large and we have to box our
shade trees at an expense OF 70
cents per tree. The poor man
can't have a garden without a fence
around it. The cows break down
the shade trees and break into the
yards and gardens and do great
damage each season, and are q
constant annoyance. Hence the
) COWS ought to be kept up. Those
who keep COWS should fence them
in, rather than require those who
own no COWS to fence them out. Is
this not ~just?"
The following is taken from the
Little Rock Democrat of May 10th
"The report that Fl. B. AXE & Co
will leave Little Rock is erroneous
Mr.. HI. B. AXE was seen at his
! place of business at the corner o.
Second and Scott this morning
