HEAVY SENTENCES GIVEN
Richard Hassard ana Aionzo Tate
Are Serving Time fer VioIat-
ing the Liquor Law.

Richard Hassard, because he sold
Whiskey to Alonzo Tate, and the lat
ter, because he gave some of this same
brand of fire water to Julius Milton,
are now both serving sentences in
the county Jail. Both acts were COM
mitted on Sunday, May 81. Hassard
was convicted in police court yester-
day morning on two charges and given
sixty-five days in the bastile. Tate
was, more fortunate, wrawing forty
five days. Tate denied giving whis-
key, on the Sabbath, stating that he
gave the booze to Milton on Decora'
ton Day Under the statutes of In
diana, it is as naughty to give whiskey
away on a public holiday as on Sun
day, consequently the court had Tate
going and coming.

Next Tuesday, June 10, the Board
of Public Works will open all bids re-
ceived on the new unit, consisting of
an engine and generator, which is to
be installed in the municipal light
plant. Bids on boilers and other i'm
provements, will also be opened on
this date. There will be a large
number of firms bidding. Agents
for two large companies were in the
city yesterday to look over the plans
and specifications, which were prepar-
ed by the engineering firm of Mead
& Company of Dayton, O.
There is limited amount of mon.
ey to be spent on the unit which is to
be installed at the light plant and the
board at the present time is undecided
whether it would be advisable to in
stall turbin or reciprocating engine
All bidders have been asked to sub
nit bids on $50 k. w. and 500 k. w.
turbin and reciprocating engines. The
best engine that can be obtained for
the amount of money the city has al
lowed the board, will be secured.
All the members of TIE board favor
the turbin class of engines. One
member of the board said yesterday,
The reciprocating engine has reach,
ed the limit of it's perfection and is in
general use throughout the country.
The turbin engine has not yet reached
the height of it's perfection, but 1t has
already become very popular with ex-
perts everywhere. The room which
one reciprocating engine would occu-
Ply would be sufficient for the location
of three turbin engines. In the re-
cent tour the board made inspecting
lighting plants, we found in every
plant where therewere reciprocating
and turbin engines, that the former
we're kept idle, while the turbins were
depended upon for the generation OF
power. This fact alone shows the
economic value of the turbin engines

Thursday. 1t appears that Ashley
was the leader of the Ashley clan Of
that section, who very often went to
town and "took charge" of it. On
this particular occasion Policeman
White was attempting to arrest him
when the difficulty was precipitated
by Ashley which resulted il his be-
ing shot to death by Whjie. There
was danger of violence Oh the part of
the Ashley crowd for some time, and
the governor ordered out the Anderson
MALTA company to preserve order.
Capt. McCully, who was in command
OF the company, in his report to the
governor, stated that in his opinion
serious trouble was averted by the
presence of the MALTA. All is quite
now. White has been lodged in jill,
and has secured counsel, and will ap.
ply for bail at once.

This is the first application of the

Governor Hayward says he will

And it is strongly probable that the
legislature will refuse to order the

Otis Tuttle and Dick Terry, accord
ing to word received today, were
killed in fight with the Wickliffe
band of Cherokee Indian outlaws in
the Spavinaw hills, nine miles north
west of Kansas, I. T., yesterday af-
ternoon. After the fight the outlaws
were besieged in the house of their
uncle, Jim Wickliffe. Tonight no
news was received from large party
of deputies who went to the Spavi-
nav hills to capture or kill the out
laws. The Wickliffes killed Deputy
Marshal VIer about year and half
ago, and officers have been on their
trail ever since. Six officers who
were on the way to arrest the gang

Indiane, who shot and killed three of
their pursuers and escaped unhurt.

Special Term Court Evil.

Columbia Record, March 10Th.
Governor Hayward is going to
shut down tight on this special terms
of court evil, which the last legis.
lature so emphetically disapproved
of and cut off appropriation for, since
he finds out he has authority in law
to do so. When the legislature be.
fore the last passed the ten circuit
bill, providing for two more judges
and two more solicitors, it was prom
ised by the advocates of the bill that
special terms and special judges
would be thing of the past, but the
evil has continued without abatment.
Solicitor Zimmerman, of the local
circuit, in letter received today
asks the governor for special term
for Richland, but this will not be
granted unless Assistant Attorney
General Youmans, who is just now
out of the city, gives an opinion that
it is obligatory upon the governor to
order the special term upon euch q
request. The special term is desired
to dispose of the county graft cases
and the case of embezzlement against
Daniel Zimmerman. But the letter
gives no reason. It ssys:
"Dear Sir: As provided in section
274, volume 2, code of laws of South
Carolina, / hereby make application
for special term of the court of

TilIman On Heburn Bill.

Washington, March 15-"The gross
annual earnings of the railroads in
round number are two thousand mil
lion dollars. Their net expenses are
seven hundred million dollars. 1t
will thus be seen that once gear
every dollar in circulation in the
United States passes through the
hands of railroads, while once in three
years every dollar in the United States
becomes part of their net earnings,
and these net earnings equal in amount
annually the entire expenditures of
the Uaited States government"
This was striking statement made
by Senator TilIman in bis formal
written report on the Hepburn rail-
road rate bill which be was directed
to make by the senate committee on
interstate commerce and which he
presented in the senate promptly af-
ter it met today. 1T is small wond-
err be continued, ''that with such
princely revenues the most brilliant
legal minds of the country are at
their command to conduct Legislation,
frame laws and secure their passage
through Legislatures and congress
and toexercise such an overmaster-
ing il fuence over the judiciary and
executive departments, both of state
and national, that the average citizen
is almost driven to believe that the
fight is hopeless, and that the govern
ment instead of controlling the rail-
roads is controlled by them and that
the liberties of the people, to say
nothing of their rights, is in jeop-
ardy"
The report is an extensive one and
in conclusion the senator warned the
friends of the proposed legislation
that all their expectations may not be
realized at this session OF congress-.
The great Influence of railroads, he
said, might prevent the passage of
any bill at all or the enaction of one
that would prove wholly inadequate.
Such an action on their part will, in
my Judgment, he said, be very unwiae
and will only dam up the water. II
those most interested in these great
properties will not consent to wise
legislation to relieve distress of peo-
Pile there is danger of more radical
policies and leaders coming to the
front, with the result that legislation
far more drastic and dangerous than
anything proposed in this bill will be
offered and enacted.
