A PROBABLE MURDER
John H Davis Found Dead in Bux-
ton Sunday.

John Henry Davis, known to Oska-
loosa people as Monkey" Davis, a
son of Dick" Davis, deceased, was
found dead in the roadway east Of
Buxton early Sunday morning. He
had received money at Buxton and
was in town until after midnight, buy
ing Christmas presents, so it is under
stood. Rumors have it that the man
was murdered and robbed. Others
state that he drove into a ditch and in
the runaway that followed had a leg
broken and died in the cold. The
telephone office at Buxton was closed
today and none of the details of the
affair could be learned. 1t is under
stood that the body will be brought
to Oskaloosa for funeral and inter
ment.
A statement received from Buxton
this morning says that Davis started
home in an intoxicated condition,
driving a blind horse, and that he
drove off the high bridge into the
ditch below, where the body was
found early Sunday morning.
A young man known as Dick" An
lerson, collector for the Hub Cloth
iers, was slugged at BT::::ttcl Saturday
night as he was going home after
making a number of collections for
his firm. He lay unconscious several
hours, but finally appeared at his
home in an irrational condition. He
could give no account of himself, does
not remember anything of an assault
but a great confusion and cut on the
head tells its own story. The young
man was robbed of about one hun.
dred and fifty dollars.

to Charlotte Observer: White
head Kluttz of North Carolina
leaped into National fame today
when in great speech in the ia
nous auditorium mere, he captur-
ed the big audience, and COM
pletely won them to his views.
He was often interrupted by
spontaneous applause, and when
he concluded there was great
demonstration. The chairman
called him to the stand and grip
ped his hand warmly, thanking
him for his speech. Some one
in the audience then called for
three cheers for THE South's
brilliant young orator." The sig
nal honor of the Chautauqua sa-
lutte was given him, he was almost
mobbed by the thousands who
crowded to the platform to grasp
his hand.

Gould anything be more inno-
cent? The McKinnon forces ask
ed for the votes claimed for their
man, which was denied; then it
was decided to allow Manning
the votes claimed for him and
the same men who had voted not
to allow these votes voted to al
low them. What did the Nc
Kinnon forces have to do with
the pit that Mr.. Fisher admits
somebody digged? They did not
ASK that the votes claimed for
McKinnon be denied; on the con-
trary, they expressly asked that
they be allowed. And when the
Manning votes were allowed,
then, and not till then, did M.
Fisher make his motion to allow
the votes claimed for McKinnon;
and when Mr.. Fishers motion
was under consideration the Nc
Kinnon forces did not beg for a
reconsideration of the vote.
W hen That report was written,
Mr.. Fisher, we tried to write
merely as ''looker-on in Wen
na," without reference to our
own preference. No opinion was
expressed as to whether McKin-
non was entitled to the votes
claimed for him. No man has
80 far questioned the accuracy of
the report save you, and we think
that we have shown that the
claim you make has not leg to
stand upon. We have no concern
in the matter beyond showing
that our report of the conven-
ton was correct in every essen
tial detail; and we defy any one
to show wherein it was not cor
rect. We, too, believe in justice
and right, and when you do The
Robesonian the injustice to say
that it's report was incorrect we
want you to point out wherein it
was incorrect. We submit that
you have not yet done so. We
are with you down to the ground
on believing in the rule Of the
people and not of a few politi-
cians;;' but that has nothing tc
do with whether The Robson
ian's report was correct or not

Special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEW CASTLE, April 14.-It is now up
to the people of New Castle whether the
historical boulders shall remain in the
streets or modern paving replace them
The first step has been taken by Lewis
+. Ellison, who has called an election for
four additional commissioners to take
charge of a proposed bond issu9 for the
purpose. The law authorizing New Cas-
tie to borrow $4,000 for street improve
ment was passed several years ago. II
never went into effect. Then another law
was passed providing for bond issues for
sewers and modern paven streets. The
people voted down the bond proposition
bacause no information could be obtain
ed from the commissioners. The next
election will be held on April 30. Persons
who voted at the last city election are
qualified to vote at this election. After
the commissioners are elected an cleo
ton will be called to authorize the issu-
ance of bonds for street paving. Some
residents are opposed to the paving Of
the streets until the sewers are in
stalled"

SUGGEST NEW PLAN
IN INTERSTATE DEAL

A suggestion was made by a banker
which is being considered by interests
in charge of the Interstate Railways
Company reorganization, is that an
issue OF S5O0.0O0 preferred stock be
made. This amount would take care
of all obligations now due including
deferred interest, expenses Of COM
mittees. improvements agreed TO under
the leases made and other costs. it
is pointed out that such an issue would
be that il would provide at once the
money necessary without borrowing
il through the Earle committee as con
templated. This would mean that in
stead Of paying back the money bor-
rowed out of the surplus of the next
for years. during which time the stock
holders would receive nothing. the
stockholders would at once receive
some return on their stock. after the
/ preferred dividends were paid.
