the purpose of nominating a candi-

vote being as follows: J. F. Roberts

Williams, "a; G. T. Aver, 21.
The second round will be October

the only candidates, we look for a
real lively contest, this being Dade

woman in politics. Both candidates

HUNDREDS Of NILES Of HIGHWAY
IMPROVED YESTERDAYS POPULAR WORKINGS STATE
Professional
by Side Welded Pick and Shovel

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 5.-Busi-
ness was suspended in Arkansas to-
day while the people worked the
roads. 1t was the first of two good
roads days proclaimed by Governor
George W. Hayes and it was a sue
cess. Every citizen welded the shov-
Ell and the pick and the banker put
in as long hours and worked just as
hard as the hired laborers. Hun
dreds of miles of highways were in
better shape last night than ever be-
fore. Today will be repetition.
Governor Major, of Missouri, who
came to Arkansas to give an ''exhi-
bition of fancy shoveling," put in a
good days work. So did Governor
Hayes. In fact the Missouri execu-
tive proved SO good a workman that
he has been induced to remain and
help today. The two governors in
the regulation cyeralls, were mem
hers of a gang assigned to a stretch
OF roadway near Little Rock.
The day was hot, the mercury 60
ing dangerously near to the season S
record, but the last reports are that
the workers are none the worse for
their exercise other the blistered
hands and tired bodies.
Except in several counties where
roads are so. bad because OF lack of
moisture, it is deemed advisable to
postpone working them on the day
that was observed throughout the
state. In hundreds of towns every
place of business was closed. In those
counties where it was impossible to
work the roads the citizens have
promised to put in time after the
first rains.
The women of Arkansas also did
their part to make the day a success.
Generally their task was to provide
the dinner pail, but at Forche Dam,
near Little Rock, twenty worked
beside the men. The leader of the
band, more than eighty years old,
promised to have her workers on
hand again today.

PASSED HALF HIS LIFE IN
PRISON
And Died With His Irons on Because
He Would Not Promise Not to
Try to Escape

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. "A special
from Milledgeville to the Journal
says:
Nobody in all the history of Am
erica has more notable career than
Old Bill Miner, who died at the
state penitentiary here Tuesday
night at 1925 o'clock.
He was born in Jackson county,
KY, in 1887; and there he led the
wild free life of that section at that
time Throughout the width and
breadth of the state George Ander-
son was known before he was fifteen
years old.
Shortly afterwards he started west
and four years later was rounded up
for robbery in San Joaquin county,
April ), 1866, when but nineteen
years old. He was sentenced to San
Joaquin prison, where he was known
as prisoner No. 3248. He was dis
charged June of the same year, but
July II he was sent up from Placer
No0hLJ III q 1C" l1lOAIl5p W tI1Stl IIS
served as Nc. 1913.
He was discharged, only TO be
sent up from Calaveras county, June
20, 1871, as No. 1902, but a new
trial was granted him and he was
taken back February 8, 1872, and
returned March 30, 1872, as No,
52O6.
He tried to escape May Z, 1874,
and had four years added to his time,
| but March ), 1877 his sentence was
eommuted to twelve years and he
Twas discharged July IA, 1880.
Real Activities
1t was at this juncture Bill Miner
began his real activities. Meeting
UP with Bill Leroy, most noted OF
western bandits at that time, he
formed partnership with him, go,
ing under the name of w. A. Nor.

Posses pursued them. Leroy was
captured and lynched, but Bill Miner
ESCAPED safely, after shooting up the
posse, bat only slightly wounding a
few of the members.
A little later he was caught in
Tuolumne county for robbery and
sent up for twenty-five years He
started work December 81, 1881, at
San Quentin as No. 10191, and
emerged from prison July II, 1901.
Daring Train Robberies
Although growing old and having
paid a severe penalty, he started out
in his career of Iawlessness with
more force in every way September
.23, 1908, he held up a train near
Puget Sound on the Canadian side,
having two confederates on the job.
They robbed all the passengers,
looted the express cars ami secured a
big haul, but all the robbers were
caught except Bill Miner Resting a
few months he again started his wild
career. With his two aides he held
up train at Mission Junction, Brit
.ish Columbia, September 10, 1904,
and secured $4,000 in gold. The
government and express authorities
became fTenzied at his daring rob-
berries and the dominion government
offered 5000 reward for him, while
the express company offered a SIM
liar sum and the province of Brit
ish Columbia augmented it by $4,000
more, making the total $12,500 to
be paid for "Old Biz Miner, alive
or dead.
But the redoubtable old fellow
laughed at their attempts to corner
him. He roamed the wilds of the
country until May 8, 1906, when he
associated himself with Louis Col
.Quhon and Tom Dunn and held up an
express train at Furrer, British Co
lumbia. They made the engineer
urcoupIe and pull the car a mile
away, but to the disgust of .Old
BIZ he found only registered mail,
the express money being left in an
other car. He abandoned the rob-
berry.
