this TO say of his predecessors, who
are well known locally:
"There is J. r. Lemon, that genial
apostle of sunshine, of laughter, and
of song. whose graphic pen painted
pictures for the admiring and ap-
plauding public and whose flashing
wit and humorous good-nature have
so long. and continus still, to charm
the newspaper world.
There is w. NJ oliver. that legal
giant. whose fertile Imagination, and
untiring energy, made him such a
factor in moulding public sentiment,
and shaping the destinies of political
aspirants for official position, and
whose recognized ability has played
such a conspicuous part in the an
nails of Marshall county.
And last, but not least, is our
immediate predecessor, Judge p.
Barry, who. from the humblest sta
ton in life. has. by his energy, in
dustry and close application TO du-
ties, been elevated. by his people to
the following prominent positions of
trust, all of which he filled with
credit to himself, and honor to the
people whom he served: County
school superintendent, county judge.
representative in the state elgisla-
ture. administrator and receiver OF
large estates, president Benton Hotel
company. president Benton Frater-
nifty company, president of County
School Improvement league, and
member Of executive committee state

it will be to fill their places. We
commend them most heartily to the
people with whom they have decided
TO cast their lot. wishing them
health. happiness, ong life and pros

SAVE THE WATER POWER.

Unless we are mistaken in our
source OF information, Stewart Ed
ward White in an excellent article in
this weeks Saturday Evening Post,
does former President Roosevelt an
injustice when re declares Mr.. Roose-
welt believes the executive has au-
thority to withdraw land peremp-
torily from entry. We think Mr..
Roosevelt held just as President Taft
and Pinchot hold. that the president
IS justified in overstepping the bounds
OF authority and Withdrawing land
until congress has had time to act.
That brings us to an important
point. illuminated by Mr.. Whites
article: that we are not so much con-
oerned with what con gress does about
this Ballinger-Pinchot controversy as
we are with what congress does about
legislation to make permanent what
