Texarkana. Sept. q. News
reached here yesterday afternoon
from Rodessa, La, 80 miles
south of here. that an oil we'll

place, on Adam Stuart land by
the Standard Oil people, who re-
Gently obtained a lease from Mr..
Stuart. Oil was struck at a
depth of 1,750 feet, but it is not
stated what the yield is, although
it is said to be highly satisfying.
Mr.. Stuart is merchant at
Rodessa, and a few years ago he
purchased 500 acres of cut-over
land from a sawmil company,
paying So per acre. A few
months ago he was offered $780,
90 for the land, but declined the
offer.
Rodessa is only 16 miles from
the Caddo oil field and the sur
face indications are said to be
very similar in the two localities.

GERMANS ARE GOING
TO BIG GERMAN DAY

Little Rock. Sept. 28.- Be-
tween 300 and 500 Germans Of
Little Rock will next Saturday
night leave for Fort Smith t.
participate in the five days Of
festivity which will end on
Thursday, Oct. 6, with a big
parade and other features.
Charles Ross, the former presi-
ent of the State organization Of
Germans, states Little Rock will
go prepared to bring the next
German Day celebration back to
Little Rock. The local Germans
have been very sorry they allow
ed the celebration to go to Fort
Smith this year, as the prepara-
lions there have been so elaborate
it will set a hotter pace for the
Little Rock people to maintain
next year if they secure the
celebration. Several special
trains will probably be run to
Fort Smith as the Germans from
the near by towns will come to
Little Rock to join with the
others in going TO Fort Smith.

Evangelist J. L. Haddock, Who is
Conducting a Series Of Revival
Services at Christian Church.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1910-08-12

The discovery of the guilt of George
G. Parkinson, which was first made
public through the columns Of The
Tribune, is now recognized by the chief
authorities of the dominant church.
The ecclesiastical court, after due de-
liberation, has sustained the many
charges Of embezzlement, falsihcatlon,
bulldozing and assault.
Not quite candid In all things, yet
the inqnsitors have set out sufficient
details to justify every important ac-
cusation, and 1T is the general opinion
that Parkinson has to 20 the ways OF
the wicked.
When the Oneida ditch scandal was
first published by The Tribune. two
years ago, there was a general denial
by the offender and determined de-
Tense by the Mormon press. AS time
wore away and evidence accumulated
the denials were followed by silence
But the assault on young Casio brought
on so acute q condition that even
Parkinson IS staunchest friends refused
TO further defend him.
The report which follows shows how
faithfully The Tribune recorded the
facts IN its endeavor to protect the
Oneida district and to safeguard the
interests of the hundreds of interested
church followers of Parkinson who had
been so wantonly betrayed.
Here is the report:

Without Using "Shorter and
Uglier Word" Says Kansan's
Charges Are False.
ADMITS HE is INTERESTED
IN BIG RUBBER TRUST
But Denies Any Pecuniary In
terest Influenced Fixing of
Tariff Oh Rubber.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Senator
Nelson w. Aldrich of Rhode Island,
enumcrating the counts under which he
was indicted by Senator Joseph w.
Bristow of Kansas, in recent campaign
speeches dealing with the tariff on rub
Der, in a letter made public tonight, de-
nies the charges in their entirety.
incidentally he pays his respects in
caustic language to Senator Bristow
and what he terms "little group of
men," who entertain opinions similar
to those of the Kansan.
The letter is addressed to William
B. Mckinley of Illinois, chairman OF
the Republican congressional commit
tee, and was sent to the headquarters
Of the committee In this city.
The explanation of rubber duties and
the denial of the charges made against
him by Senator Bristow are based upon
the fact that Senator Aldrich was called
upon by q Republican candidate for
congress to furnish the facts connected
with the changes In tho recent tariff
act.
Analyses Charges.
Referring TO the charges made by
Senator Brlstow as "absurd misstate.
ments," Senator Aldrich said the per-
sistent reiteration of them impelled
him to make full statement. At the
outset Of his long letter, tho senator
divided the speeches Of Mr.. Bristow
into five parts, each of which contained
specific charge. He then dealt with
them in order.
In the first place the senator de-
clared the increase from 80 to 80 per
cent on a small number of articles of
manufactured rubber was for the pur-
pose of making the tariff uniform on
kindred articles and facilitating the
labors Of the customs officials.
In that connection he made public a
letter to him from General Thad S,
| Sharretts, member of the New York
board of general appraisers. asserting
that the change was advisable and had
been agreed TO unanimously by the sen.
ate and house committees and confcrees
IN the tariff bill at the earnest solicita
| tion of the tariff experts Of the treas
ury department.
Denies Pecuniary Interest.
Laying particular stress upon the
charge made by Mr.. Bristow, the chair
man of the senate finance committee
said that "ueither he nor any member
of his family ever has had any pccuni
ary interest as to whether the rates or
manufactures of rubber were so, 35 OF
400 per cent, or whether crude rubber
was on the free or dutiable list
Dealing then with the charges that
the Inter Continental Rubber. Of which
he is director. is trust; that it ad
vanced the price of crude rubber and
controlled the world IS supply, and that
the company had paid enormous divi
dends. Mr.. Aldrich treated each at great
length.
Without raising any issue concern
