BUTT-END OF HUGE
JOKE?
GOV. SMITH OF GEORGIA SAID TO
HAVE BEEN MAZE RIDIC-
ULUUS BY S0UTE CARO-
LIMA FUGITIVE.

Saluda, Feb. 8.-Deputy Sheriff
Padget, who obtained requisition pa
pers from Gov Ansei on Friday and
went to Atlanta for "MuSs" Deloach,
who had been arrested in that city
and was being held at the request Of
Sheriff Sample, returned here Sun
day, but without his prisoner De
loach is now in Jail in the city of
Augusta, the governor Of Georgia,
in view of the statement made by
Deloach, as reported in the Augusta
Chronicle, and the Atlanta papers,
refusing to honor the requisition to
the extent Of allowing him to be
brought back to South Carolina to
be tried for assault and Jattery with
intent to kill some 10 years ago.
The Joke that Deloach has per-
petrated on Gov Hoke Smith and
the hero which he has made of him
self in the eyes of some OF the news
paper men OF Georgia as gathered
from some Of the papers Of that
State is intensely amusing to the
people of Saluda county, who know
Deloach so well and who are famil-
lar with the details of the shooting
! by him of William Gillion and T. A.
Jones, for which offense he left this
State and succeeded in keeping his
whereabouts so we'll concealed until
few days ago.
There would be no more danger
attending the return of Deloach to
Saluda county. so far as personal
injury is concerned, than would at
tend visit Of the Georgia governor,
whom Deloach has made the butt
end" of huge joke.

THE STOCK LAW.
Delta Ark, -26-' '09.

Dclld AIh., U --O- OO'
 Ed. News As the people are to have an election soon, on the hog law proposition in Nevada County, I thought it would not be amiss to give my experience touching the question. I lived 13 years in Texas, part of the time in hog law district and the other part of the time in a general stock law district. From experience and observa- ton as well, I prefer the hog law. Either is better than no stock law at all but 1 prefer the hog law. It may be said by those who oppose the stock law, that the rich lands of Texas will produce grain to feed hogs and that the stock law would ruin the renter. That is the way l thought about it when the ques- tion was first agitated, but when it became fact plain to be seen I saw the good of the change. The sandy timbered land of Texas, where I lived, is no bet ter than the lands of Nevada County and not as well watered. | was renter in Texas where | was converted to the hog law idea. If the law is good for the Texas renter it is just as good for the Arkansas renter. Rent CTS very seldom raise their meat under present conditions and a change would not make matters any worse, and might make times better by getting people into the habit of attending bet ter to their hogs and keeping better ones. I could say more along this line but will close by asking people to look into the question for themselves, and 1 am sure that they will vote for the hog law first, last and all the time.

 In response to score or more of letters, in which the writers indicat ed they attended church services to see the eXpounder of the gospel and not to hear a voice in the distance, Dr. Me. Fadden requested the matrons, young women and girls to re- move their peach basket, merry widow and other types of hats. He explained that from his point of vantage in the pulpit the verit- able sea of fanciful creations of the milliner's art did not inter- fere in the least with himself or the discourse, but that he simply made the. request to oblige the men. The women saw the point and there was a prolonged rus tie of silks and chatter of dagger pins. The pastor thanked the women on behalf of the men many of who clapped their hands in show of gratitude, and the service proceeded.

VANISHING WHISKY

Spokane, Wash. June 2S - Gumshoe politicians enlisting the support of the Indians at the election in central Idaho will strike snags all along the trail if they pursue their old tactics of campaigning with suit cases fill ed with flasks of whiskey. Since firewater has been banished from the reservation, southeast of Spokane, more than score of educated Nez Perce Indians, headed by James Stuart, Paul Corbett and Corbett Lawyer, graduates of Carlisle, have been doing silent but effective mission ary work among their fellows in the cause of local option. If they succeed in convincing the older Indians that it is their duty to exercise the franchise the liquor traffic in Nez Perce county will be wiped out. The church reds have decided to vote with the dry forces, and it has been reported that if the long-haired renegades vote they will do likewise. There are between 700 and 500 Indians in the county and with their votes they hold the balance of po- litical power.

NEW CAPITOL GROUNDS

Little Rock. May 26.-The possibilities of the development of the new capitol grounds into a beauty spot of Arkansas were discussed with interest by Cass Gilbert, the New York architect, after an inspection trip over the building and site with the Capi- tol Commission yesterday. He declared the location to be sus- ceptible of developement into a place of wonderful beauty. MT. Gilbert declined to dis cuss the condition of the build ing or to give an opinion of the plan or the construction work, otber than to remark that the building presented stately ap- pearance. At a later date, he said, he would be at liberty to talk of the structural work and architectural work. II have no statement to make regarding the capitol until I make my first report to the commission, he explained.
 Referring to the possibilities of the development of the site MT. Gilbert said "The location appeals to me as being an excell- ent one and susceptible of beau tiful developments. I think grounds surrounding the build ing should undoubtedly be de- veloped in accordance with a well studied landscape plan. The location with reference to the city and the surrounding country is very similar to that of the Minnesota state capitol at St. Paul. 1 am going to St. Paul soon to submit plans for a central approach to the capitol. It is to be 200 feet wide and run three-quarters of a mile through the city"
 Mir. Gilbert was the architect for the Minnesota capitol and has laid out the general plan for the approaches to the grounds. One of these approaches will lead diagonally across the city from the business section, an other diagonally from the resi- dence section and a third to run straight through the town. When the landscaping and ap- preach plans are completed, the Minnesota capitol will be a gen uine beauty spot.
 While the architect made no statement directly signifying his intention of accepting the of fer of the State Capitol Commits sion of the position of architect of the capitol building, his atti- tude towards the matter leads to the belief that he will submit his acceptance and name his terms at the meeting this morn ing.
