 MT. ]. A. New. and old and well known citizen of Drew county, who lives three or four miles west of town was indicted by the last Grand Jury on a charge of killing negro by the name of Dennis Lyle. The negro was found dead. in his field, and we learn that the evidence is wholly cireunstantial Mr. Mew IS out on bond.
 A colored man by the name of Shelby. who lived near Selma, was given seven years for man. slaughter, by Drew county jury last week. He was charged with murder for whipping one of his children to death. The negro claimed that horse threw the child and killed it, but as the evidence showed that the boy had been unmercifully beaten, the jury convicted.
 Cotton was off some the first of this week. The rain, on Tuesday morning, however, is likely to have tendency to check its com ing in to market so fast. and we may then look for rise. It IS Il fore gone certainty that if farmers run over one another to sell their cotton for eight cents per pound, they are not apt to get more than that price for it. Cotton Is one commodity that the farmers could control the price of if they would. It is not a perishable article and if properly housed, will keep in. definitely.

NEW POLICE STATION MOVE
Matter Projected by DahIman IL Being
Carried Forward by COun-
Gilman Bridges.

Councilman Bridges of the committee on
buildings and property has taken up the
proposal OF Mayor Dahlman to sell the
present police station property and to use
the receipts toward constructing a modern
station and City Jail at another location.
He is making inquiries to determine II the
old Dodge street school building and lots.
which have been used by the police depart
ment for a long time. can be sold readily
and about what price may be expected.
There can be no question about the need
of a new police station and JAIL" says the
mayor. Nothing is right about the pres
ent institution except the location and this
is good because II is close to the burnt
district. Recent developments indicate that
the burnt district is TO be devastated TO
make way for wholesale establishments.
as most OF the streets have been turned
over to the railroad companies for track
age. II the tenderloin moves the present
strategical value OF the police station loca-
ton would be gone.
IT hardly expect we can get enough out
OF the property to buy new site and put
up the building Omaha ought to have. but
l believe such a proposition would reduce
the bonds necessary to figure where they
would be voted gladly. At any rate the
matter is worth investigation"
