Dynamiters Admit Their Guilt

Probably the greatest surprise Of
the year, and a decided shock to
forces of organized labor and to the
country at large, occurred last Fri
day afternoon at Los Angeles, CAL,
when James B. Mcnamara entered
q plea of guilty to the murder Of
Charles j, Hegserty, who was killed
in the explosion which wrecked the
building of the Los Angeles Times,
and in which disaster 81 lives were
lost, October /, 1910,
John j, Mcnamara, the brother
who was jointly indicted with James
B. in the Times case, but who was
not on trial, also entered a plea Of
guilty to wrecking the Llewellyn Iron
Company's plant at Los Angeles on
December lS, 1910,
For several weeks past hundreds
of talism N have been examined in
an effort to secure jury trial, but
when the case was so suddenly ter
minated by the unlocked for con-
fession only eight members of the
jury had been selected,
II Is said the pleas of guilt were
made after the attorneys for both
sides negotiated at length and reach
ed an agreement to the effect that
the defendant on trial should re-
ceive life sentence In prison II the
confession were made, and It Is evil
dent that the defense thought this
the only means by which McNama-
ra could escape the gallows, The
brothers confession followed, and
for his crime he Is to serve ii years
in prison,
The Mcnamara brothers were
union labor leaders and the laborers
who worked in the buildings which
were destroyed were non-unionists,
and these facts, II Is said, prompted
the terrible tragedies,

Start Your . Plans Now

Really the next years farming
operations should be the carrying
out Of plans already laid out, 1t is
not much trouble to adjust ones
business for the next year. So the
better plan for any farmer to follow
is to begin now, Plan a four-year
or four-feld rotation of crops,
Possibly the first field to lay out
would be the pasture or grass land,
Do this with an eye to convenience
for handling the stock,-in getting
them back and forth from barn to
pasture. Arrange to keep the
mules and horses in one part of the
pasture and hogs and cattle in an
other part, with plenty of good wat
er in both.
Next, we would consider the field
that Is to 90 to small grain, If no
thought has already been given to
this field, it should be taken from
this years clean cultivated, or hoed
crops,
We would then consider our corn
field, and last our cotton, which
takes what Is left.
Every wise farmer will put his
poorest or thin or damp land to
pasture, and the fields should be 50
arranged that some low, swampy
places could be permanently IN pas
ture. This can be done by a nova
BILE fence with but little trouble,
A farmer friend told us the other
day that he intends to break his
corn and cotton land this fall and
winter, and that he wanted to get 1t
broken some two or three inches
deeper than last year, He Is right
Deep breaking should be done grad
ually going from one to three inch
es deeper each year. All land ex-
eept level land should be terraced
and worked as near on a level as
the terracing will allow,
All land not carrying a cover crop
should be broken this fall and win
ter and those with a cover crop as
early In the spring US good jude-
ment will allow
IF not already done, betiN now

Veteran OF BrooEs.Daxter War Dead

Michael McCanany, who won
fame in Arkansas during the re-
construction days, died recently at
his home in Wisconsin.
McCanany became widely known
for the part he played in the strue-
Ole between Elisha Baxter and joe,
Brooks for the governorship of the
state in 1872. Baxter, arepublican,
defeated Brooks, democrat, and
the latter brought suit to contest
the election, Baxter did not appear
In court and the judge declared
Brooks governor AT the point of
a revolver Baxter was made to va
cate the old statehouse, Brooks sue
ceeding him. By this time feeling
was warming up. Baxter, after his
retreat, summoned McCanany
from Jacksonport for advice and
in Il short while the latter got to-
gether a good number Of fighters to
defend Baxter, many Confederate
veterans rallying AT the same
time Brooks was collecting his fore
es, Many street encounters and per-
sonal clashes took place on the
streets of Little Rock. But the big
battle" of the war" happened when
McCanany's men attacked detacb-
ment Of the enemy, in which attack
IL were killed. At this point Presi-
dent Grant took d hand In the Dame,
declaring Baxter the lawful COVER
nor, and ordering federal troops to
drive Brooks from the statehouse II
he did not leave In ten days, This
of course, settled the struggle,
McCanany, starting as a tramp
printer, died one Of the wealthiest
publishers In Wisconsin, Years ago
he ran q paper In Batesville,

al, have taken charge of the restau-
rant to satisfy the indebtedness.
Attorneys for Joe Nelson, who is
in Jail at Batesville charged with
carnal abuse, applied before Judge
Jeffery for a reduction in bond one
day last week. The reduction was
refused. Nelson's bond is fixed at
$500, and so far he has been un-
able to raise the amount.
Tom Cole, a prisoner in the
Mountain Home Jail, caused consid-
erable excitement recently when he
tried to make the jailer believe he
[Colel had taken an overdose of
carbolic acid and that death was
near. This bit of bad acting only
won closer confinement for the
prisoner.
Charles Pickett, who was given a
20-year sentence in the penitentiary
for the murder Of George Keeney in
Randolph county about year ago,
made his escape recently and has
not yet been recaptured. The es-
cape occurred during the confusion
caused by the wreck of the train on
which he was being carried, three
other convicts escaping with him.
Some time ago it was reported
that George T. Black had with
drawn from the race for prosecuting
attorney. But the Pocahontas
Star Herald last week chronicled
visit of that gentleman to Randolph
county, stating that he was assur-
ing all his friends that he is still in
the running. Not long ago Mr..
Black removed from Pocahontas to
Salem.

S07se Words About Roads
Written by Slick"

ument to the industry and public
spirit of this generation.
A good road is to be built in
Tennessee from Bristol to Men,
phis, the whole length of the state,
in one day, a voluntary movement
on the part of the people along the
line. have heard that a thousand
people got together out of Batesville,
Newark and the intervening coun-
try, with teams and implements and
built a first class highway between
those towns in a day, and while we
might not be able to assemble so
many people here, this condition
would be amply compensated by the
fact that we can build good roads
in our country much easier and
cheaper than it can be done be-
tween Newark and Batesville.
Good roads are important to ev-
cry one. They are more important,
however, to the farmers and mer-
chants than to persons in the other
occupations, for ninety-nine per
cent of all the surplus products of
the farmer must seek a market
first over the common roads to
reach railroad and river transporta-
ton, and all the merchant sells and
all the miller Grinds in a country
like ours must be brought over the
same highways to reach the stores
Of the merchants and the bins of
the millers for distribution to the
people. 1t follows then, that every
one has a vital interest in good
roads, for all must depend on the
success of the farmer for prosperity
and on the success of the merchant
for convenience in trade.
The writer Of this will be one of a
hundred who will give twenty dol
lars or more during the coming year
toward working the roads out from
Evening Shade.
Sharp County record., 1911-12-08

and stock your farm with graded
cattle and hogs. Save the manure,
keep it dry, and apply as accumu-
lated broadcast and plow or harrow

the drill when you plant. 1t often
does more harm than good, by
burning up the crop,-Progressive

months that something should be
said in commendation of our road
overseer, Mr. Dow Davis, and was
pleased to notice in recent issue
of the Record his efforts in road
building characterized as conscien-
tious.
He is conscientious, and more, he
is practical; he is developing some
engineering skill and he is making
some Improvements in the roads
which will not have to be done over
after the first storm.
When a public servant, however
humble the position he may fill, re-
allies that he is servant OF the
people and that public office is a
public trust" he is going to perform
the duties of that place consclenti-
ously. He is going to exercise his
best judgment, he is going to think
about what he does and why ne
does it, and the result is inevitable
that he will make good. His sue
cess may be only in degree, but it
is success.

printed several Of our citizens have

ersears in this county who deserve
praise as we'll as a few who have
shown themselves to be eminently
deserving of censure and criticism.
Complaint has been made that
some of them exhaust their ingenu-
ity and skill in efforts, successful in
variably, be it said, to get into their
own pockets all the money belong
ing to their districts and then let
the roads take care of themselves,
even without utilizing the free labor,
Fortunately the people are awaken
ing to the duty of relesatins such
so-caled public servants to the
realm of the has beens" where
they become chief deputies to the
"also rams" for a life time term.
While we have a good overseer,
why not arouse enough public spirit
to build a good road to the Straw
berry bridge and to the northern
terminus of the Pickens mill roadY
The towns should help and will help,
because good roads to the towns are
the very best means Of developing
and promoting trade and business,
Who will start the enterpriseY

to date road machinery with tie
balance and make some graded
roads, well drained and covered

Evening Shade and Ash Flat and
Cave City to Evening ShadeY
There Is enough good, proper

expense, comparatively, and this
finished to hand material may be
found on the other named lines to
a greater or less extent,
suggest that some money and
help be raised by private subscrip-
ton to supplement the public fund
and free labor and that work be put
on the Cave City and Ash Flat
roads between now and spring.

Get together now and then on pretty
