|. HARROD FACES
MURDER CHARGE
KILLED ALBERT M'DANIfL
PLAINTIFFS IN STRICKLAND
CASE TAKE ON-SUIT-MC-
GINTY ACQUITTED.

The trial of Laney Harrod on a
charge of murder in the second de-
gree for killing Albert Mcdaniel.
which was taken up in the Faulkner
circuit court at the opening of the
session this morning, is in progress
as the Log Cabin Democrat goes to
press and will probably not go to the
jury before Thursday morning. Har-
rods alleged crime was committed al
most exactly one year ago, July Is.
1911.
According to the evidence develop
ed, Harrod and Mcdaniel, while off
in the woods about four miles north
of Beryl, in company with Grover
Harrod, a cousin to both parties,
quarrelled, and Mcdaniel, who is al
| legged to have been drinking, attempt
ed to force Harrod to dance by draw
ing pistol on him. Harrod then
raised shotgun and fired the con-
tents of both barrels into the body of
Mcdaniel, who died instantly. Har-
rod is being represented by J. H.
Harrod of Little Rock and the de-
PENDANTS brother, J. @. A. Harrod
of Oklahoma City. George w. Clark
is being assisted in the prosecution
by R. W. Robins.
The jury in the case of the state
against Frank McGinty, charged
with carnal abuse, after balloting
throughout the morning reported to
the court at noon that an agreement
was impossible. Judge Hutton, how
ever, advised them to retire and en-
deavor again to reach a verdict, and
about o'clock this afternoon the
jury reported verdict of not guilty.
Late yesterday afternoon Judge
Hutton granted a change of venue in
the case of G. R. Strickland ct al VS..
M. Strickland, Jr., and sent the case
to the northern district of Prairie
county for trial. The defendant in
troduced considerable testimony to
prove his contention that fair trial
could not be obtained in this county,
one witness testify;ng that articles in
the Log Cabin Democrat about the
case had prejudiced the people
against Strickland. This morning
the plaintiffs took a non-suit, the case
being dismissed without prejudice. 1t
IS understood another action will be
brought later by the same parties.

Attachments were issued yesterday
afternoon for Matte Britton and
Will Talent, charging them with
contempt of court for failing to ap-
pear as witnesses in the case of the
state against Frank McGinty.
The grand jury filed its first re-
port this morning, returning three
indictments, one for felony and two
for misdemeanor charges. None of
the parties indicted is in custody.

develops within the coming ten years,
Iowa's population will show another
decrease similar TO that in the past ten
years and its pride will be still further

1t is fact clearly established by John

ordinary Mishap.

Special to Times Republican.
Clear Lake. June o. An accident
worthy Of featuring on account of its
popularity. occurred to William Lat
terman yesterday. He was sweeping
his porch and saw a dynamite cap on
the floor which he picked up and held
in his hand While he finished sweeping.
When thru he set down the broom
and thought he would take a smoke.
He loaded his pipe and scratched the
match and raised the hand containing
the cap to protect the match from the
wind and Just as he did this the cap
exploded. It blew his thumb and index
finger off and tore into his face. but
fortunately did not hit him in the eyes.
Medical assistance was at once sum-
ynoned and it is thought that he will
improve without anything more seri-
Gus occurring.

might be developed. This is what he
found, after getting together a mass
of information from all sources and
studying it thoroughly: To build up its
industries, Iowa must establish sys-
tenn Of industrial education, which will
show Iowa it's manufacturing oppor-
tunities and provide ii with trained en-
gineers and skilled workmen to make
the most of them. 1t must enlarge its
experimental and research work at the
engineering experiment station AT Iowa
State College until it gives the manu-
facturers of the state the aid they need
and can not get elsewhere. Iowa must
extend the work Of technical school at
Ames to the factory workers in every
city and town thru short courses, spe-
cial lecturers, correspondence study and
otherwise; finally, Iowa must give state
aid to local secondary schools to give
agricultural instruction. 1t can not
cozpete in the industries without
trained workers and it can not grow
unless it can compete.
This question of education for the
industries is not merely a matter of
promoting larger industries and there
by a larger population. 1t is also a
question of saving boys for larger ef-
ficiencyq and usefulness in life and
greater happiness. It IS biggest as a
boyhood question.
| Everywhere boys are dropping out OF
! the public schools in such enormous
numbers that far-seeing men are
alarmed. Taking the country as a
whole. not one boy in ten ever gets into
| high school, while not one in hundreds
ever gets into college. The overwhelm-
| ing mass OF boys does not even get

Iowa the legislature was appropriating
