Chief Eaton's Story.


Following is the statement of Chief
Of Police Eaton when asked this morn
ing to tell of the trouble he had with
Sloan and the part the State Journal
had in it:
There was no connection between
the trouble last night and anything
published in the State Journal. Mr.
Sloan Dragged of mean and vicious
and threatened to repeat it. 1 pushed
him out of the door. I did not hit
him and I did not kick him. L did not
swear at him nor did I use any pro-
fame language. 1 called him dirty
cur. That is as near as 1 came to
swearing.
"Sloan came into the office about Z
O'Clock last night and accused me of
suppressing news. / told him I had
not suppressed any news. One word
led to another and finally he said he
was going to have all the news. Then
he brought up his former vicious at
tack on me and minated that it would
be repeated. All a man has is his
reputation and that threat or intima-
ton made me mad. told him to get
out and he said he would not. took
him by the shoulders and pushed him
out of the door.
"All of the profane language used
was used by Sloan. I am not sup
pressing any news and I do not want
to be the victim of another vicious at
tack such as Sloan made on me some
/ was miSQuoted. / did not kick
Sloan nor hit him.
t'It was not necessary for Hopkins
to separate US to protect Sloan from a
beating. The article in the State Jour
nal had nothing to do with the trouble
and there would not have been even an
alteration had not Sloan brought up
this vicious attack and the same as
threatened me with another of the
same kind"
Trouble has been brewing some time
between Sloan and the chief of police
Recently, it is alleged by members of
the police force, Sloan decided he had
not been getting his share Of the po-
lice news. 1t is alleged that the at
tack through the columns of the morn
ing paper followed this decision on the
part of Sloan. After the affair died
down there was still, it is said, some
apparent bitterness in articles concern
ing the police appearing In the morn
ing paper Lately there has been lit
tie news in police circles which ap-
peared first hand in the morning
paper, but the police deny that any
news was withheld from any reporters.

-Twenty-six County Auditors met
at their Sixth Annual Convention

said in part, that taxation in this
State is increasing at frightful
rate; that Auditors should advise
County Commissioners to reduce and
curtail public expenses. Notwith-
standing we have q tax commission,
our taxes, State and local burdens
have greatly increased since this
body was constituted. Our esteemed
Governor might give little OF his
time to the matters OF retrenchment
and economy, instead Of worrying
over the liquor question and making
political deals. II probably costs
three times as much to meet the ex'
penses OF our State government than

A Precedent Nearly a Century Old

If you think this is a freak season,
read of the summer of 1916, nearly
a century ago, which was noted for
generations afterwards as the year
withou: Summer.
A musty record of the past gives
thefOllowing summary of the weather
of that notable period. There was
a frost in every month of the year.
January and FEBRUARY were wild
March was clustering and raw; at
the end of April snow fell abundant
ly, and the brooks were ice imprison-
ed as in winter In May the wonder
ing buds and young plants were
nipped ere they were aware; the corn
was annihilated by an ice sheet that
formed to the thickness of half an
inch. In June. snow fell three inches
deep in New York and Massachusetts,
and the destruction of growing things
begun in May was disastrously com
pleted. On the 9th of July, ice thick
as windOw-glass was q common phe-
nomenon in Pennsylvania, and in Au-
gust there was ice half an inch thick.
Pennsylvania farmers were compelled
to pay 81 or So a bushel for corn for
the next springs seeding. Winter
seemed to set in during the latter
fortnight of September; from that
time forward ice and snow were at
no time lacking.
Many persons are quite ready to
ascribe to Halley's comet what they
deem the singular climatic conditions
this year. They think May, 1910.
was a much colder mon tn than usual.
AS matter of fact, the temperature
chart from May / through Memorial
Day shows an excess of II degrees
above the normal.

CONVERTS.

Dear Sir:-As I am subscriber
to The JeffersOnian, also the Maya
zine, I thought a few lines from this
neck of the woods would not be
amiss. I have not been reading your
Jeffersonians very long and have
just read one copy of your Magazine,
which I subscribed for in March.
My brother, J. G.. Mcleod, of Flor
ence, Texas, had The Jeffersonian
sent to me, and while I have always
admired you very much and have al
ways been a Democrat in politics, I
am frank to say I am with you from
now on. The principles you advO-
cate are unanswerable. Your ar
ticles on Foreign Missions are good;
while I am a missionary Baptist |
agree with you when it comes to our
own people furnishing foreigners
free schools, free drug stores, and
everything else free, while thou
sands of our own people here at
home can not buy necessaries. I
think it is time to call halt and I
want you, Mr.. Watson, to just keep
Smelling the woods, it's doing good.
I thought you acted wise in not de-
batting the question with Ellis. You
could not afford to, but [ do hope the
Peerless One will debate the issue
with you.
Your articles on Socialism are
fine; Socialism ought to be stencil
in every Southerner's nostri1s Your
Jeffs are doing good on that line. I
handed copy to neighbor not long
ago who was a Socialist and it
knocked it all out of him; then he
came back after the Magazine.
I am waiting patiently for your
articles on Catholicism.
The political pot is beginning to
boil in Texas, four candidates for
the gubernatorial nomination, and
as Billy J. says, Prohibition is the
paramount issue
Wishing you unbounded success,
I am Yours truly,
J. H. MCLEOD.
