Shuns Political Talk.

Scores of special correspondents sent by the great American newspa- pers swarmed around the former pres ident as soon as he was released from the grasp of his wife and daughter To them Col. Roosevelt declared he would not discuss the political situa- tion in the United States with which he has been cut of touch for so many months.

One bold corre- spondent received a Roosevelt smile only when he asked if the colonel will be candidate for the presidency in 1912.

Attorney General Says Fence Law in
 Johnson County Is Valid.

Attorney General Hal L. Norwood stated recently that he would not re spond to any more inquiries from citi- zens of Johnson county who ask for a construction of the several acts rela- tive to the fence law in certain town ships in that county. MT. Norwood ex- plains that he is not required to give opinions to private citizens. He says he does not mind occasionally answer ing such inquiries where any considera- ble part of the public is interested in the questions asked, but draws the line on answering daily inquiries concern ing one special act. He regards the Johnson county fence law as badly mix ed up and expresses the belief that the people affected will have to take an other vote on the question before it can be definitely settled.
