Should the Fennia company employ

Alderman Hosking of the park COM

presented last night. The understand
Ing reached was that the Fennia com

looms. claiming II interfered with the
rights OF the Ulseth addition company.

thought that care should be taken rel
alive to providing sanitary safeguards
so that the wells on the city property

Ravenden Springs, Ark,

Editor Star Herald,
Dear Sir:
wish to call your attention to
a very great mistake you made in
publishing my letter last week.
Though there was only slight
change in the text it made a very
great difference in the meaning |
intended to convey, and places me,
very decidedly, in the wrong light.
In the passage referred to | said:
81 surely need the money there is in
the Office or | would not be in the
race, neither would any other man.
But the county should not become
charitable institution, and | do
not ask any man to vote for me
because you think need the money,
but because you think / am honest,
upright and worthy of your support,
because you believe ] am capable
and will try to do my duty"
But you made it read quite diff.
ferently from that. However, | am
sure that the mistake was uninten.
tionsl on your part. have had
little experience in the newspaper
business and know that mistakes
will get in sometimes, and especial
ly when one is pushed for time as
you evidently were last week.
Please correct the error this week
and oblige, Your friend,
G. A. Dixon.

MAY NOT DITCH
MURRY'S CREEK
Report of Engineer Said to be not
Favorable to the Proposition

1t is matter as yet unsettled in
the minds of the people of Cherokee
Bay, according to reports, whether
or not the ditching of Murry's
Creek will ever materialize. 1t was
proposed several months ago that
arrangements be made to cut ditch
about miles in lenght, beginning
near Reyno, on the Clay county
line, and run in an easterly direct
ion along the drain of the creek and
empty into Black river at or near
the mouth of what is known as the
Gar slough. a survey was made some
time ago and submitted to an engi-
per, who after examination and lnves-
tigation reported that he would not
advise the cutting of the ditch, CIV
as his reason the fact that the ditch
would be quite an expensive luxury
as it would cost a great deal of
money to keep it up, owing to the
lay of the lands through it would
pass; that the ditch would be con-
tinually filling up and would require
a great deal of work each year to
keep it open, and to serve the pur-
pose for which it was intended.
We understand that it is the in
tention of the people that should
this proposition fail that they will,
of their own accord, open up the
channel of the creek and clear off
the banks and IN that way get rid
of great deal of surplus standing
water, thereby changing the con-
dition of things generally.

Office in New State House

The Arkansas Democrat says
before the end of the week Cover
nor Donaghey will have his private
office at the New State Capitol and
spend the most of his time there.
The extreme north room of the first
floor, which will be portion Of the
governors suite when the building
is completed, was last week boxed
up and windows put in to make
ready for the coming of the chief
executive.
On Saturday table, desk and
a few chairs were moved into the
office, in which fire had been kept
burning all week to dry out the
walls. This office will not be that
of the State Capitol Commission,
nor will it be the executive office
of the State, simply the private of
fee of Governor Donaghey, where
he will keep tab on the building
and remain the most of the day in
close touch with the workmen over
half the day.
The offices in the old statehouse
will be maintained as in the past
and the morning hours devoted to
the transaction of business there by
Governor Donaghey. Secretary
Bullion will remain in charge of
the Office, but Governor Donaghey
will have stenographer in his
rough State Capitol Office, so that
he can transact business of state
there when his attention is not de-
manded to work going on on the
new building.

Another Sensational Charge.
ABUSED EMPLOYE TO GET
BACK AT THE "BOSS."
And Now a Hackdriver Faces Fifty
Days in Jail Without Hacks to
Make Life Comfortable.

That is does not pay to take out
spite on the boss" by insulting his
employees, was proved Saturday after
noon in the court of Justice Alarid
who fined Cevero Encinias $40 and
costs or 20 days in Jail for assaulting
Anastacio Sena and S25 and costs for
assault on the house of Williams and
Rising, the liverymen on San Fran
cisco street. Encinias did not pay the
fine and now faces two sentences in
jail, one of twenty and the other of
thirty days, making fifty in both cas-
es.
A large crowd gathered around the
court room to hear the testimony. Mr..
Sena testified that Encinias worked
as a hackman for Williams and Ris-
ing for a week and that he himself
was also a hackdriver there. He said
that Encinias had been discharged
Friday noon and had returned to the
livery stable. and had abused him and
his employers. He said that he had
thrown him out of the place when he
returned at night Two night police
/ men were called as witnesses and al
so gave damaging testimony against
Encinias, whom they arrested.
