Lee put on slow speed and obeyed.
When they reached Weeks office the
squire called up Carver and explain

Send him back to Elwood," shouted
Carver. Lee demurred and asked
that the trial be had in Pleasantville.
The prisoner accordingly was put
on the phone. He was accused, plead

~ Attempt to Kill Self

In defense of the transaction whereby

walton for land near Prescott, Ariz., and
sell the latter to the Arizona Land and

watson, former Congressman from
Indiana. is president, Fred bennett.
Commissioner of the General Land
Office, has issued a strong statement.
A Chicago newspaper published a
story on the subject yesterday convey
ing the insinuation that Mr.. Watson
was profiting from his support of Presi-
dent Taft's candidacy for denomination.
Mr.. bennett denounces the story as
an effort to pervert an ordinary Gov
ernmental transaction into a political
proposition. He says the railroad COM
pany owned land which was taken into
an extension Of the Mo9ui Indian reser-
walton.
Thereupon, under an act passed dur
ing the administration of President
Roosevelt, the railroad had the right
to offer this land to the Government In
exchange for land Of equivalent value.

The availability of the railroads s land
for this exchange, says Mr.. bennett

Garfield was Secretary of the Interior.
Mr.. bennett said the case proceeded

no special consideration, either favor.
