LAND CASE BEFORE
STATE EOUALIZERS

The state board of equalizers heard
the case against Klock d Clark at Nash
VILE last week. The case is for two
years back assessment upon q, $40 acres
of Carter county land. The land in
question for 1907 and 1908 taxes was
assessed at SIS, 800, The trustee increas-
ed this to S25,O and Klock 4 Clark
appealed this. A brief has been filed
with Secretary George Blake by J. f,
White, attorney for A. S. Birdsong,
revenue agent for East Tennessee. In
this the revenue agent contends that
even the sos, 900 is an entirely made
quate assessment, and urges that it be
increased to $4,000 or per cent of the
purchase value of the land. Lee f.
Miller, of Elizabethton, is attorney for
the defense.

The Hon. VIM. Pinkney Wbyte
once said, in speaking of the require
ments for the judgeship: "Give me
man of sound sense, (Which is the
he'd rock of legal justice,) freedom
from prejudice, absence of that par
tisanship so common to a skill in
forensic com bats, kindness of bear
ing, honesty in Judgment and merci,
fulness in temper, and | will show
you the best specimen OF Judge
The Democrats of this judicial
circuit can boast that they have as
candidates two gentlemen in whose
characters the above named qualities
are most happily blended, Mr.. Fill
more Beall is ve1sally esteemed
in this county where be is bcst
known, and Judge Camalier is so be.
loved in S.. Mary's that it is said
that he will receive almost the IN.
aninons vote Of bis county. Persons
who are popular in their own com
munities where they ming lie in soo!al
intercourse and in BUSINESS trans.
actious with their fellow citizAns
must possess traits of character and
beauties Of disposition that win re.
spect and love. The same qualities
that make men popular at home will
make them popular abroad. We pre-.
dict that Mr.. Beall, who is so uni.
versally esteemed here, will win
friends in every county of the cir
cult, just as Judge Camailier 10y his
uniform courtesy has practically al.
ready made his election sure. The
Republicans for nearly thirty years
held both associate Judgeships. Ii
is time for q change, and the loya)
Democrats of the cureuit will bend
every effort TO elect Democratic
judges as we'll as other officials. The
occasion demands this. The trials, the
discouragements, and. bitter memories
Of hard fought political contests in
the past will be our inspiration.

Upton, Ind, July 26-The First
National bank of this city is closed and
it's assistant cashier, Noah r. Marker,
has disappeared, taking with him be-
tween $4,000 and 100000, which was all
the cash in the banks vaults.
Saturday afternoon Marker, after
taking the money, set the time lock on

until 8 o'clock this morning and fed

his brother, William Marker, cashier
of the bank, saying he had gone forever
and that he had taken money enough
to pay his expenses"
Whether Marker had previously tax
EN- money from the banks funds and
covered up the defalcations by making
false entries in the books cannot be
known until the arrival of a national
bank examiner.
The directors decided to suspend ope-

SAN JOSE, July 26.-The body of 5.
=. Flynn, a San Francisco attorney
was discovered this afternoon hanging
by pair of clothes hooks upon the
wall in an apartment house in San An
tonic street in this city.
1t is evident he committed suicide,
either by poisoning or strangulatlon'
and letter left to William j. Burns
suggests that disappointment at not
being permitted by Burns and Francis
Heney to assist in the graft prosecu-
tion in San Francisco caused him to
take his life.
In letter TO his wife and daughters,
addressed to them in San Francisco
he assumes that they will ascribe ms
act to insanity or the use of alcohol,
and denies both these charges in a
lengthy analysis of his motives
Wished to Fight Graft
In his letter to Burns, Flynn says:
1T has been the ambition of my lire
TO aid in a movement having for its
purpose the eradication of political cor
ruption or at least to arrest its further
development
Again the letter contains the follow
ing: During the interval between our
last interview and my departure from
San Francisco, two weeks ago,
sought employment in that city but tc
little purpose, and after two weeks here
| am forced to the conclusion there is
no prospect of my securing anything
to do that l could apply myself to-
This [ cannot account for except upon
the theory that my mind is so filled
with matters relating to civic reform
and kindred subjects as to render me
unable to apply myself to anything
