TROUBLE IN STORE
FOR CHICAGO NOW
Haywood Arrives There to
Make Plans for a Des-
perate Strike.
National News Association)


CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-Wm. D. Hay
wood, formerly an officer of the West
ern Federation of Miners, now a lead
er of the Industrial Workers of the
World, is in Chicago today considering
the advisability of organizing a gen
eral strike OF unskilled Iaborers The
efforts of the strike leader will be cen
tered, it was intimated, among employ
es at the stock yards and steel mills
There is feeling of unrest among
the employees at the stock yards and
the steel mills here" said Haywood
I'VE are going to try to crystalize that
sentiment into the biggest strike we
have yet attempted. | came here be-
cause | have learned that Chicago, the
greatest industrial center of the world
is in need of our organization and
methods.
''Workmen here need better working
conditions and better pay, principally
the former. We are going to get it for
them. And our way of getting it usu-
ally means a desperate strike. And
it also means victory for us in the end,
no matter what the cost
I'VE already have several locals at
the stock yards. 1t will be an easy mat
ter to organize more. There will be
no demand for closed shop or de-
mands of that kind. We simply want
better working conditions"

alone by the fire when he suddenly dis
covered that she was weeping. He
asked the cause of her tears and was
told that she never loved him and
never could, but had married him sole
ly to please her father.
"I love DR.. Douglas she added, but
I will try my best to be dutiful wife
to you

and rode to Nashville. where he re-
signed at once his office as governor

FARMERS PROTECTING
RABBITS AND QUAILS
palladium Specially

HAGERSTOWN, Ind, Dec. 12.-Far-
mers here, for the first time in many
years, are free from the annoyance of
trespassers during the hunting sea
son, due to the fact that the farmers
have banded together in a sort of pro-
tective association for the preserva-
ton of game birds, rabbits and squir-
rels.
No hunter is allowed access to any
farm hereabouts. In consequence game
has multiplied. Quails are scarce, how
ever, and farmers are bent on preserv-
ing them, as they see in them a valu-
able insect destroyer Because of the
protection quails are becoming tame,
and it is no uncommon sight to see
the meating with the barnyard fowls
Farmers are providing shelter for the
quails.

THE COUNTY'S FINANCES.

The annual report of County
Clerk J. H. Bailey, which has already
been published in this paper, shows
that the outstanding Indebtedness OF
Faulkner county on June 80, 1912
was $53,S33.27. To Offset this there
was in the hands of the county treas
urer warrants subject to cancellation
amounting to $1S,677S9, leaving the

1858. This is an increase of 3d.
303.oS over the net Indebtedness of
one year ago, the increase being oc-
casioned by unusually large expen-
ditures for circuit court costs and for
roads and bridges, out of which fund
alone about $12,800 was drawn.
Six years ago, shortly before the
present county judge assumed the Of
flee, the amount of outstanding coun-
ty scrip was $31 ,033.84, or about
$4,000 less than it was on June 80,
1912. 1t has been the ambition of

SEEK 100000
IN BACK TAXES

Little Rock, July 22.-The suits
that have just been brought at Fort
Smith against Sebastian county cor
porations for a total of $305, 303.46
in back taxes, is a part of the gen.
eral campaign that has been inaug-
urated throughout the state to force
corporations to pay arrears on
fraudulent or excessively low assess
ments during the last ten years.
There are seven companies involved
at Fort Smith, the suits having been
drawn by Assistant Attorney Gener-
al VIM. II. Rector, upon information
furnished by the State Tax Commits
sion. The largest individual sum
asked for is $229,636.42, alleging
that the company has not paid on the
prevalent basis of assessment since
1906. Little Rock, Helena, Fort
Smith and Hot Springs are the cities
that are principally concerned so far,
but other suits are planned that will
let few counties escape.

The proposed bill of Representa-

county to forbid the sale of wild
cat mining and industrial stock is
one of the few pieces of legislation
for which there is real need in the
state. Thousands of hard-earned dol
lars in every county have gone into
the tills of get-rich-quick promoters
who, though dishonest as burglar,
have been out of the reach of the
law We no longer permit lotteries,
betting on horse races or open gamb-

than the sale Of worthless stock GER

Little Rock, July 23.-Sid B. Red
ding, clerk of the United States court
in Little Rock and prominent in Ar
kansas Republican politics, has de-
serted the Roosevelt third party ad-
vocates and says he will remain in
the Republican fold. Mr.. Redding
was one of the leaders in the Roose-

spent some time in Chicago endeavor-
ing to secure recognition for the
Roosevelt delegates in the Republican
National Convention.
He was selected for the national

convention, which met a few days be-
fore the Chicago convention. He
says he declined to attend the Or
chestra Hall convention in Chicago,
which inaugurated the third party

ter President Taft's nomination to
support the nominees of the conven-
ton.

Pastor RUSSELL syndicate of Brook
Ign, N. Y. pastor RUSSELL" who

it is but natural that his disciples

other doctrines are contained in
Pastor RusselPs creed, the Log Cab

COTTON CONDITION
Is POOR IN EAST
GOOD PROGRESS IN WEST
IMPROVEMENT THIS SIDE OF
RIVER OUTWEIGHED BY
EAST DETERIORATION.

Memphis, July 22.-The CONNER
cial Appeals weekly SUMMARY of
cotton conditions says today:
The cotton crop duplicated its per-
Torrance of the previous week and
made progress west of the river and
lost ground east of the river during
last week.
Western progress was at least bal
anced by Eastern deterioration and
probably outweighed.
In some parts of the section east
of the river progress was made, due
to the scattered nature of the rains
which have visited that section dur
ing the last three weeks In large
portions of states nearest the Miss
issippi river the precipitato on has
net been excessive, and in these dis
tricts the crop made good advance.
But the deterioration in the portions
of these states where rainfall was
too heavy added to the almost solid
deterioration farther east overbal-
anced the gains made in the good
sections and caused a general deter
ioration on the whole The plant in
this section is generally gone too
much to weed; is sappy and tender
and poorly prepared to withstand
dry weather. Cultivation has been
arrested and fields are full of grass
and weeds, many acres having been

lures. With this slight increase in
the Indebtedness he has constructed
steel bridges and culverts and made
other permanent improvements,
which were paid for out of the gen
eral county revenue, to the value of
about $4,000. The integrity of our
county court is strikingly shown in
the fact that this vast sum has been
expended and not even political en-
envy has ever limited that the county
did not get value received for every
dollar. The many steel bridges will
stand for generations as monument
to the progressiveness of Judge Lea.
Now that practically all the neces-
sary bridges have been erected and
the immediate needs in the way of
permanent improvements have been
met, it is to be hoped that the in
coming county judge, John w. Holt,
will be inspired by an ambition to
free the county from debt and to
make its warrants worth face value.
Unless unforeseen expenditures are
called for, he can during the four
years he will probably hold the office,
by limiting allowances to the actual
necessary expenses of the county gov
eminent, almost wipe out the indebt-
edness of the county. By so doing
he, too, will have erected for himself
a monument that will endure for
MANY wears
