ELDER HILL BUILDING
FINE MODERN RESIDENCE

FINE MODERN RESIDENCE
modern residence that Elder c. c.
Hill, former pastor of the Christian
church and present candidate for the
Democratic nomination for county
rected at the corner of Ninth street
and North Kentucky avenue. The
house is a one-story frame structure.
on the bungalow style, having six
large rooms, bath room, four large
closets and front and rear gallery.
The improvements and conveniences
will be modern throughout. Elder Hill
has three lots facing east on this cor
ner and, as they border on North
Spring river, he is having built what
he terms a "sea wall" that will pro
tect his place in case any high water
should ever come down in what new
er has been an overflow stream. He
is having a well drilled on his place
and will no doubt get a strong flow
of water that will give plenty of force
to supply all his needs. The house
will be model of convenience and
a pleasant place to live when com
pleted and will add greatly to the
value of property in that vicinity. II
is the first residence of this size aid
style that has been erected on the
river bank.

ELkS NOT SELFISH IN
PLANS FOR THE FOURTH

PLANS FOR THE FOURTH
A prominent Elk called at the Rec
ord Office this morning and stated
that he would like word in prin;
in as much as few, only a few had
been heard to give adverse comment
on the plan of the Elks to have a eel
ebration here on the Fourth. He said:
While we Elks expect to get busy
and try to make some money on the
Fourth for our building fund, our mo-
tives in helping to get up celebra
ton for Roswell are not entirely self
ish. We are all good citizens of Ros-
we'll and want to see the town have
a celebration that will keep it's peo-
pie and money at home. Last year
at least $4,000 of Roswell money was
spent in Carlsbad. This year we would
like to see the crowd come this way
Everyone expects to spend something
on the Fourth and with the attrac.
ton hGre, it will be spent il Roswell
And although We are going to try to
get a share of the spending money
every cent we make will be spent i'm
mediately in Roswell for labor and
material In our new building. The
merchants have given literally for
the celebration and they have shown
their faith in the proposition. But it
is not they that are knocking" There
is no reason why any person should
knock the proposition. If anyone OBJ
jects to the Elks working for a share
of the profits let him get out and rig
of 1t The more the merrier and the
bigger the celebration"

have complained to the Record against
being compelled to close their stores
for special occasions during the week.
They say that it diSarranges business

believe that there should be less of
it. They would much prefer a regular
schedule of holidays and cut out the

FOOTBALL

EVANSVILLE, Ind, Nov. 49,
Charles Daugherty, druggist and
ex-prize fighter of Arlington
Heights, ILL.,, came here to attend
the funeral of his brother, Albert
Daugherty, who was killed in a
foot ball game at Henderson, KY,
and announced that he would de-
mand the arrest of the players on
both teams in the hope that the
game might be stopped.
Charles Daugherty was formerly
a member of the local Y. M. c. A.,
and several years ago, when it was
announced that he, was to meet
Peter Maher in the prize ring, he
was warned by the association to
keep out of their quarters.
His brother was playing with the
local Y. M. C. A. when he sustained
fatal injuries. William Daugherty,
a theatrical man of New York, and
brother of the dead football player,
and sister, Miss jeanette, are
both in a serious condition as the
result of the shock of Daugherty's
death, and it is feared the brother
will not recover.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-11-19

Then he went to work on the
night riders. In some parts of the
state where the outlaws have been
strongest he stationed soldiers for
weeks at a time. Many of these
counties were republican strong
holds, and sentiment was in favor
of the night riders, although not
with their deeds of violence. Gov
ernor Wilson knew he was hurting
his party and impairing his own
prestige, but he kept at it; he knew
that a presidential election was
coming on and that he was endan-
gering the state to his party; he
knew his state might even decide
the presidency, but he never
swerved; he relentlessly pursued
the night riders and drove them to
cover in one county, then in an
other, and when they would trans
fer their operations to some other
place he would send soldiers there.
A bitter feeling developed
against the governor in many sec
tions-many of them republican

INTEREST RATE
UNCHANGED

How is the money market?
Are loans any easier to secure
since the election
These are questions frequently
heard around real estate offices,
where business to a large extent
is influenced by the ease with
which money can be had. An ex-
animation of the mortgages filed
cor one day at the county auditors
office shows that in some loans as
high a rate of interest as 10 per
cent is being charged. On two good
loans rate of seven per cent waa
given. The standard rate of inter-
est remains at eight per cent as
of old
A loan of $500 was placed for
five years at eight per cent; loan
of $500 for one year brought 10
per cent; eight per cent was paid
for $4,000 for five years. the rate
for $4,000 loan for three wears
was seven per cent: $4,000 for
three years brought eight per cent;
$1,000 for five years was placed at
eight per cent; $1,000 for three
years brought 10 per cent; $500
for five years was placed at seven
per cent. No loans under $1,000
was placed for less than eight per
cent.

WANTS A SIS, 600 SUIT
DISMISSED

The Spokane & Inland Empire
railway has asked that the suit
brought against it for $4,000 dam
ages by Walter E. Shore be dis
missed on the ground that the
plaintiff knew the hazardous char
acter of the employment he was
about to undertake when he ac-
cepted position with the COM
pany as an electric lineman.
Shore was injured at Blackwell's
switch October 10, 1907, as a re-
suit of which one arm and a leg
were amputated. 1t is further set
forth in the company's defense
that the injury of Shore was not
due to any negligence on it's part
or anyone for whose negligence 1t
was responsible. 1t is claimed that
Shores injury is due to his own
negligent acts or the negligence
Of his fellow employees, for which
he company denies all liability.

districts. But he is still busy try
ing to. suppress lawlessness, and
his state went democratic, although
1T was regarded as doubtful even
by the democrats. He knows Tay-
Tor and Finley have been under in
dictment for capital offence for
several years. The people know it
and know that he knows it. They
are beginning to demand that he
show his hand; that he bring the
fugitives back for them to look at,
even If he has to pardon them
afterward.
Governor Wilson has not an
nounced what he will do when In
diana's governor-elect takes the
reins of office. His people know
he can bring back the fugitives,
and many of the democratic lead
ers are taking a keen delight in
contemplating his predicament
Just how Taylor and Finley are
feeling about it no one has been
able to learn.
