POLITICAL POT
 BEGINNING TO SIMMER

The meeting of the yoomenry of this county here attending cir cult court has started the talk of the next political campaign, and there are many of our citizens who are ready to throw their hats in the ring for different offices. Hon. G. R. Haynie, our prosecuting Attorney is being urged by his friends to get in the race for Circuit Judge of this Judicial ssDistrict. Hons. J. o. A. Bush, Duncan McRae and Walter Murrah are mentioned as probable candidates for State Senator. J. A. Bailey, the pre- sent circuit Clerk will be opposed by c. c. Calhoun at pre- sen t bookeeper for the Prescott Hard ware Company. J. w. Franks will in all probability have no op- osition this time, the same can perhaps be said of County Judge J. M. Thomas, and also Fred Wal lls will have smooth sailing for Tax Assessor, as far as we are able to prophecy at present. Dink Cox, County Treasurer, is serv- ing his first term and no one has been spoken of as aspiring to his job vet.
 For Representative, there will be plenty of worthies, that want to save the country at Little Rock when that august body meets in 1915. Joe Meadow and Dave Martin are talked of some, and several others that may get in the race. For sheriff, there will be hot scramble, Ed Hood, of Emmet, Henry Holloway, the present deputy. Sam Mum, K. W. Burk, and John Daly Parker have been mentioned, and the first three named, are avowed candidates.
 Within the next few weeks the friends of all the aspirants will begin to line up and then the pot will begin to boil. In sever

POLICE DOUBT HIS STORY
Check Suspect Says He Killed Pearl
Bryan and Seven Others

Los Angeles, CAL, July S.-Arrest-
ed on the charge of having passed a
bad check at seaside resort, Simon
P. Helfinstine, who is in jail here,
startled officials of the sheriff's Office
with purported confession, in which
he detailed series of eight murders
in Ohio. These include the Staying
of Pearl Bryan, for whose death the
medical students, Jackson and Wall
ing, were executed.
Some Of the circumstances of the
crimes, as related by Helfnstine, do
not coincide with facts, and county
officials are inclined to believe the
prisoner is suffering from insanity.
Pearl Bryan was supposed to have
been killed in Cincinnati, but Helms
tine says he murdered the girl in To-
ledo and then shipped the body to
Jackson and Walling in Cincinnati.

Was "Vicarous Sacrifice"
Washington, July 8.-The strange
tale of Wall street operations, begun
before the senates lobby committee
last week by David Lamar, the wolf
of Wall Street." had another chapter
added when Edward Lauterbach, La
mars associate in many undertakings,
pleaded that he had been the innocent
victim and the ''vicarious sacrifice" in
negotiations that have involved the
Morgan firm, the steel interests, New
York attorneys, members of congress
and men of lesser prominence.
Lauterbach, long prominent in legal
circles in New York, sat all day under
a searching fire of questions from
senators on the lobby committee. He
admitted most of the facts alleged,
but he declared that throughout the
questionable negotiations he had been
the innocent victim of those who had
concealed facts or made misrepre-
sensations to him.
