 County Jail.
ATTORNEYS A DISAGREE
Judge Elliott Will Hold Sessions in the Circuit Court Room-Man,
 Friends Visit Ellis.

Judge !. NJ. Elliott in the Jefferson ehancerI court Thursday set the time for the habeas corpus hearing in which counsel for W. Y. Ellis. who shot and killed \. p. Willis. of In dianapolis. in a Little Rock court room, are making determined effort to secure his release on bond After being informed that Attorney James A. Gray, of Little Rock. counsel for Ellis, and Prosecuting Attorney Roy D. Campbell, also of that city. had hearing. Judge Elliott set the date for Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. In the meantime Ellis must remain in the Jefferson county jail in this city.
 Ellis was brought here Wednesday. after a writ Md been issued by Judge Elliott at the request of his counsel, commanding the Little Rock officers to show cause why he should not be released on bond. The law provides that a hearing shall be given in such cases within three days after the is suance of the writ, but where attor- neys agree or disagree the court may set the date of the hearing as he deems best 1t is believed that Prose cutting Attorney Campbell and Att0r- hey Frank Pace law partner of Sen Jef Aoy-ic. b, ployed by relatives of Willis to aiI ill the prosecution. age preparing to import witnesses from Indiana in hopes of having Ellis denied bond.

 Judge Elliott announced yesterday that the habeas corpus hearing would be held in the big circuit court room. as it is expected that the chancery court room will be inadequate to ac- commodate the spectators who are anxously awaiting the first session of the court.
 Ellis wife, other relatives and many friends called on him today and Mrs Ellis remained with him for some time. He is being provided with ev- cry comfort at the jail by his relatives and IS in good spirits.

COUNTY POLITICS
 SIZZLING HOT Edgar Brewster Says He Will Be a Candidate for
 Sheriff.
JUDGE JONES RAGE?
Said He Will Rpn-Again for Prose. cutting Attorney-Leey and Lytle
 / for Circuit Clerk.

JeHefson county politics picked Up yesterday when Circuit Clerk Ed gar Brewster made the positive an nouncement that he would be cam dldateI for sheriff at the next primary election which will in all probability pc held March 30, on the same day eue State o1lclals are to be voted on. This announcement is of more tban ordinary interest here because of the announcement made some days ago by Sheriff C. M. Philpot that he would be candidate to succeed him. self. being now in his second te erm in that office. Other rumors of pros pectlve candidates has added interest to the local political situation, not Wlthstanding the fact that the date of the primafy election is yet some months off
 If persistent humors are to be talk en as criterion, the coming primary election in this county promises to offer some of the most stubbornlv fought contests ever recorded in the history of this hotbed of county and state politics. Tn announcing as ehlpots opponent Circuit Clerk Ed gar Brewster says that he is not now d candidate, as he thinks it a little too early to talk politics, but gives Gut the assurance that at the proper time his announcement would appear. It is rumored that Circuit Clerk Brew ster is to make the race against the wishes Of the various court house officials, who are said to have urged him to ask for a third term as cir cult clerk.
 Philpot is now serving his second term as sheriff and he has been one or the most active and competent men ever iE that office. He had op- position for his second term in the person of former County Clerk Jesse R. Core. who was defeated by an overwhelming majority Sheriff Phil pot, his friends say, was forced 70 spend large sum of money in mak- ing his second race, when he should have had no opposition and because Of tl.s fact he believes that he is en- titled to another term in his office Mr. Brewster objects to third term can didate" on the ground that third termers are not in keeping with Democratic principles, and because of this fact he has refused to make the race for circuit clerk again. On this same ground he will oppose the re- election of Sheriff Philpot.
 Brewster has been one of the best officers ever in the court house. On the other hand the activity of Sheriff Philpot in running down criminals has made him a record that has never been equaled in this section. Both men are exceedingly popular and the race gives promise of being one of great interest.
 Friends of Brewster, who are also friends of Philpot, urged Brewster to stay out of the race and make the race for sheriff two years hence. Some months ago Sheriff Philpot took for mer Circuit Clerk w. L. Goodwin into his office and made him his chief

All Smyrnians who have the pro-
gress of the town at heart should
not lose sight of the fact that now is
the time to strike for a Federal
Building. Notice of an appropriation
for $40, 600 was given by Senator
Richardson last spring and the bill is
on the calendar for early considera-
tion with the chance that if some
concerted action is taken, the bill
will pass Congress at this session.
Our Town Council has already put
themselves on record as favOring it.
Now let US have a word from our
Board of Trade, the Century Club
and other organizations. Keep
agitating the question. Let us have
a public meeting and appoint COM
mittee of our representative citizens
to visit Washington and with our rep
resentatives appear before the Com
mittee on Public Buildings and
Grounds of both Houses. Show our
representatives and the committees
that we really want Federal Build
ing. The time is ripe for action and
the business men of Smyrna should
leave no stone unturned to bring the
desires and wishes of the people of
Smyrna and vicinity squarely before
Congress-. Smyrna needs and de-
mands better postofice quarters.
The Rural Delivery service demand
it. Nearly 5000 patrons use the
Smyrna postoffice and the prospect
looks bright for new building if we
show the right spirit and desire to
gain it.
