SUITS FILED IN
DISTRICT COURT
BY SUPERINTENDENT TUCKER
TO SETTLE QUESTIONS NOW
PENDING.

Yesterday in the district court,
County Superintendent Tucker filed
suit against the treasurer and his
bondsmen of school district No. so,
for misappropriation of school funds
to the amount of one thousand dollars.
This is the Tatum colored school dis
trict.
Superintendent Tucker also filed
suit against the school officers of dis
trict 20, which is just north of Ard
more being Mt. Washington, for the
return of $500, which these officers
have paid themselves, as salary, by
vote of the patrons of that district.
The superintendent contends, under
the law, a school officer is entitled to
no salary, and this is q friendly test
suit to test the legality of this prop
osition.
Suit was also filed against the old
officers of district 81, which is the
Reck district, for about $500.

WONT WORK AND
SAYS He WON'T PAY
MAN ARRESTED FOR VAGRANCY
SAYS, "WHAT ARE you GOING
TO DO ABOUT IT."

There is one individual in the city
Jail that says he will not work or
pay a fine, and it is up to the city Of
ficials to see whether he makes good
or not. He claims to be a cripple and
apparently is, but he has all the ear
marks of a "throwout man" and ap-
pears to be perfectly husky and
healthy.
The chief said this morning that
this fellow would work the street at
tached to a ball and chain, or else
pay the fine assessed against him.
He is perfectly able to do the latter
as he had money on his person when
arrested, more than enough to pay
the amount of his fine.
It's cinch that this guy" as he
calls himself, will get taste of Ard
more justice as administered in the
city court.

COUNTY'S
NEW COURT HOUSE
MAGNIFICENT NEW STRUCTURE
RAPIDLY NEARS COMPLETION
-INSPECTION INVITED.

Robert f. Scivally of Springer,
chairman of the board of county
commissioners, in speaking yester-
day of the letter of o. l.. DENIES,
published in the Forum Column OF
the Daily Ardmoreite, said the ques-
tions asked by Mr.. DENIES were
pertinent and that every man in
the county had right to know all
about the affairs of the county.
He said: The Carter county court
house will be "a magnificent struc-
ture, there will be few buildings
in the state that will equal it, this
building will be built as nearly
from the original appropriation as
any building was ever constructed,
and while / would not like to go
to the expense of getting up all
the contracts and checks, etc, and
having them published, yet | would
enjoy takinkg any tax payer or any
number OF them and going through
the entire matter from the begin
ming up to the present time. We
hold no star chambers meetings,
every act of the commission is
published in the Ardmoreite In our
the county pays for these
that every tax payer
may know what his commissioners
are doing The state requires us to
do it and we have never done any
thing in an official way touching
the building of the court house or
any other thing, whether it required
the expenditure of money or not,
hat has not been set out clearly in
these published minutes"
The county court house build
ing is now built to that point
where the people can determine
of how it will look when
it is finished. 1t is fireproof through
out and every piece of material is
being examined before it is used
Each department of the county gov
ernment will have quarters provided
for them and with vaults for the
protection of their records. In case
a fire occurs the county will save
all its real estate records, which
would save the people almost the
cost of court house in case they
were to be burned, which is i'm
possible under present conditions.
Visitors to the building are pleased
with the structure. When finished
the dome will reach high above the
buildings and it will
be an ornament to the city of Ard
more as well as serve every need
of the county for court house and
a home for the county officials and
a safe place for the preservation
of the records. Bids on the furni-
ture had to be rejected because
the bids represented sum of mon
ey more than was appropriated and
some change will have to be made
in the furniture or cheaper bids will
have to come before the board be-
fore purchases can be made. The
certified check of each bidder was
returned to him.
Mr.. Scivally's proposition to take
any taxpayer or any body of them
through the building, through the
contracts and the checks, should
be taken advantage Of and if there
is any doubt upon their minds that
good judgment is not being used in
the construction of the building.
