MURDER IN FIRST DECREE
jury Returns Verdict Against viii
Ed, ]. r. and Emmett Alexander.

The case Of the State versus win Ed
]. R. and Emmett Alexander, for the
killing Of Walter Simmons one mile
west Of Limbs August 6, 1910, was tried
here the second time and finished last
Wednesday when the jury brought in a
verdict Of defendants all guilty Of MUIR
der in the first degree with mitigating
circumstances. the first trial taking place
last January with hung jury Attor-
ney General Caldwell was assisted in the
prosecution by Moore & Hudgins, the
defense by Pierce & Fry and Jones and
suddarth.
The story Of the killing is familiar to
everybody. It was a cold-bIooded affair
In short the Alexanders and some 9TH
ers were engaged in a crap game. Wal
ter Simmons, a young man, was winner
and there was some discussion, the Alex
anders claim in joking way, about
whether or not Simmons should be al
lowed to take the money. Simmons
retorted rather roughly and went to get
his horse. The occasion was a picnic
and numbers of witnesses were present
who saw the trouble. The Alexanders
followed him. One Of the defendants,
]. r., took hold OF the horse, Will Ed
took hold of the boy and Emmett came
up and struck Simmons, stabbing him.
Simmons fell off the horse, and Will
Ed picked him up and moved his head
up and down against the ground, claim
ing in the testimony that he thought
Simmons was sulking.
The burden Of the testimony was that
it was cold-blooded, brutal murder.
Last week three hundred men were
summoned, and the jury finally select
ed Wednesday evening. Several days
were consumed in the examination OF
witnesses. The argument was heard
Monday and Tuesday and the case went
to the jury Tuesday evening. No report
was made until Wednesday at noon
when the verdict was returned as stated
above. The jury was as follows: |. N.
Hamilton, Lexie Sanford, J. G. Costello,
Ben Helm, R. L. Marshall, Ed Hill,
Fl. P. Reeves, f. M. Forester, Claud
Berry, J. H. Thompson, Cal Keen, H. |

There is. perhaps no other COM

fact, localities throughout the united

three tSings-charterin new com
panies for the promotion Of local
interests, attempting TO secure local
hranobes of well established plants.
.or TO secure the absolute removal o.
that plant from another point to

community progressive enough to
nossess desire to expand is on ting
alert to Increase its local industrial

done through extreme local activity
hacked up by enough publicity WORK
an the outside so as to command the
attention of investors and owners OF
factories elsewhere; and It Is nate-
raf to assume that the community
nossessing natural advantages which
makes that fact we'll known to the
