PROF. M'CLURKIN breaches

= |. McClurkin, teacher of history
and mathematics in Hendrix College,
Conway, occupied the pulpit of the
Ozark Methodist church last Sunday
morning and evening. His theme in
the morning was, "The need of the
hour-men and women with stalwart,
animpeachabIe characters builded up
on the teachings of the Bible" The
development of his theme was full of
practical lessons. He placed Chris
tian character above money, public
preferment and fame. At night he
portrayed in strong language the
ruinous effects of sin and the exalting
effects of righteousness. He said he

Sen. HARRIS TO Be
HAYS SECRETARY
INAUGURAL AUGUST 4TH.
NEW GOVERNOR EXPECTED TO
BE DELUGED WITH PAR
DON PETITIONS.

Little Rock, July Ex-Governor G
W. Hays is expected Tuesday to make
the announcement as to who will be
his private secretary. Senator Harry
Harris of Clarendon is expected to be
the person designated. Senator Har-
ris has stated he would not accept the
position if it interfered with his SEN
atorial duties. AS. A. V. Smith, a
member of the house, has served as
private secretary to Governor J. M.
EutreTI, there will be no legal barrier
10 Che service of Senator Harris in
that capacity, though legislative
session would interfere in case Judge
Hays continues to serve more than
the one term. A special session of
she LEGISLATURE, which is a remote
consideration, would also make COM
pEcation. bat Senator Harris need on
fy resign during the session, taking
un bis work in the governors Office
again at its conclusion.
Many who are awaiting for the in
auguration of Judge Hays, which will
probably take place one week from
soday, with pardon petitions to pre-
sent, will in all probability find the
same condition in the Office then as
now Judge Hays has presided over
circuit court for many years, and is
of the opinion that so few innocent
peopIe are convicted that few need be
hardened For that reason, it is eX-
pected he will grant even as few par
dons as have been issued by Acting
Governor Futrell. Judge Hays says
he VIII strictly enforce the laws, ard
grant pardons very sparsely.

but his hearers were deeply impress
ed with his ability as a forceful
speaker. He presented truths with

influence will survive many years. Mr..

prevailed to wait until the proprietors
had chance today to consider their
grievances and try to bring about an
adjustment.
The strike so far has not affected
the service in any of the principal no.

w. organizers called mass-meetings
today at which plans were discussed
to spread the strike Pictures were
organized and posted and the propri-
etors Immediately appealed to the po-

where they made another demonstra-
ton against the Hotel Astor. From
there the marchers moved to the Ho-
tel Belmont, where several more win
doYs were broken.

WHO LET THE CAT OUT
OF THE BAG?

= =
Claude r. Yates, formerly
a member of Common Council
from the First Ward, called at
the Gazette Office this after
noon and asked that the Ga
zette make a correction of the
statement that has been pub
lished to the effect that he had
informed certain members of
the City Council that he had re-
signed or was about to re-
sign and had withheld this in
formation from others. Mr..
Yates made the following state
ment:
81 left Alexandria early in
January on a trip and did
not return until last night.
On January 9Th, while at
Minneville, Va, wrote my res
ignation which, l addressed to
D. R. Stansbury, clerk of the
Council of Alexandria, and
mailed same on January 7th.
1t was presented to Council on
January 14th. l never discuss
ed the matter with member
of Council or with anyone else
and not even a member of my
family knew that Intended re-
signing"
In view of NH. Yates state
ment the explanation made by
Mr.. Williams Of the Second
Ward when questioned by Mr..
Birrell at the Council meeting
on January 14th, that Mr..
Yates had told him that he
would resign is interesting.
If Mr.. Yates is correct, how
"did the information leak out?
Did the clerk of Common Coun-
Gil give out the information to a
select few of Council and not
to others?
Our knowledge of Mr.. Stans-
bury's handling of Councils af-
fairs for many years makes it
improbable that he was guilty
of such an act.
Did the president of Council.
Mr.. Brumback, secure the in
formation from Mr.. Stansbury
and give it out to few of his
own partisans?
We prefer to believe that
any man who. fills the high po-
sition occupied by MIR. Brun-
back would not stoop to such
petty politics.
Here is a splendid opportu-
nifty for Sherlock Holmes.

bag?

SUPREME COURT.
S To DECIDE CASE
Authority of Police Justice
in County to be Decid-
ed.
FINNEY OUT SALARY
Disposition of Writ of Habeas Cor:
pus Will Determine Constitutional
ity of Act of Legislature.

The constitutionality of the act of
the legislature under which R. Cor
don Finney, police justice of Alex
andria county was appointed by
Judge j. B. T. Thornton of the Cir
cult Court, will come before the Su-
preme Court of Appeals in Richmond
tomorrow when they will be called
upon to decide a writ of habeas cor
pus filed by W. B. Settle, of Alexan-
dria county.
Mr.. Finney served as police justice
for seven months up to the first of
last December and received no COM
pensation for his services although
under an act Of the legislature he
was entitled to salary of $500 per
annum. His salary was not paid by
order of R. Lee Moore, state audi
tor Of Virginia, who held that the act
Of Legislature was unconstitutional.
The act provided for the appointment
Of trial judges in police cases in coun-
ties having over 300 popula tion to the
square mile and the State Auditor
and attorney general contanded the
act was a discrimination against the
counties which had less than that num-
ber of people to the square mile.
Believing there was no way in
which he could secure pay for his
services and not wishing to continue
in office without compensation Mr..
Finney resigned his position several
weeks ago but upon the promise that
the matter would be carried to the
Supreme Court he agreed to withdraw
his resignation.
The proceedings which will be
heard tomorrow were therefore in
stituted Mr. Settle was fined by
Justice Finney for contempt of court
and refusing to pay the fine was order
ed to be committed to Jail.
The petition was drawn by MIR. Set
tie himself and the allegations of fact
are certified to by notary public.
He is not represented by counsel, but,
it is presumed, will be brought to
Richmond to plead his own cause Sat-
urday morning at 10 o'clock, which
time the court has set for hearing.
According to the petition, Settle
appeared before R. Gordon Finney,
justice of the peace of Alexandria to
represent a client charged with some
trivial offense. Settle told the august
court to its face that said court was
not duly constituted authority and
had no right to try the case. The
court resented the imputation upon its
dignity as well as the allegations of
its legality and promptly fined Mr..
Settle $500. The lawyer refused to
pay the fine, and Magistrate Finney
slapped the lawyer in jail-or rather
turned him over to the custody of an
officer, which is all the same in Dutch.
In his petition Settle alleges that
Magistrate Finney was appointed by
Circuit Court judge under section
1OS and that his appointment is un-
constitutional, illegal, ETC., ETC., and
that he had no right to fine him for
contempt of court because he was
not legal constituted court, and
therefore couldn't put him in Jail for
the same reason.
He prays the highest court to re-
store his liberty.
