TANGLE in LAW PROVIDING
PAYMENT OF WITNESSES

In looking over the advance sheets
of the Laws passed by the last legisla-
ture, it has been discovered that the
law relating to payment of witness
fees and mileage in criminal eases in
certain counties, including Humboldt,
is considerably mixed While Hum
boldt county is included in the title of
the act, it is omitted in the text of
the law. Local attorneys are of
opinion that at the present time Hum
boldt county is without a law govern
ing the payment of witnesses in Grim
inal cases, for the reason that in sec
tion of the new law the old act
which regulated the payne of fees
in this county is specifically repealed.
Following is the new law in full:

Give Us the Local News.

We presume there never was a
newspaper in any locality that
gave all the local happenings. 1t
is often someone comes or goes
that the reporter does not see. Per-
haps one particular family may be
missed several times. They get the
impression that the editor does not
care to mention them. This is a
mistake. In most country towns the
local work is the hardest work con-
nected with newspaper. A man
may be good editorial writer, but
flat failure in the local work, and
vice versa. Editorial material is
obtained by study, by reading news
papers, sometimes by using scissors.
Personals and local happenings can't
be read and clipped from other pa
pers, not by a jugful. 1t takes
physical as well as mental exer-
ton to get out four or six columns
of local news in towr of this size.
Most people take a local paper to
get the local happenings. Don't De
afraid to tell the editor on reporter
that you have friends visiting you
There are lots of people who are in
terested in your friends. You owe
it as a duty to them to let your
friends know of their doings. Per
haps you think the paper shows par
tiality, but just see if the paper
doesn't treat you right if YOU give
it a chance.-Avoyel1es Enterprise.

Fuel Iron company, where forty
three miners are imprisoned, rescu-
ers feared that the twenty-one still
unaccounted for would be dead Nine
of the sixteen bodies found crushed
beneath the coal have been identified
but the others are so badly mangled
that identification will be impossible.
First Account
Sixteen miners are known to have
been killed and at least a score 9TH
ers We're still missing late yesterday
in the Alabama Fuel e. Iron COM
pany's mine No. 2, near here.
Five men had been taken out of
the mine alive by rescue crews up to
1870 O'Clock last night. At that
hour mine officials expressed the be-
lief that the death toll would not ex-
coed fourteen, although estimates of
the number missing varied at from
twelve to thirty. 1t is stated that
forty-three men, the majority of them
white, went into the workings early
durin gthe day.
Experienced miners expressed the
belief that many of those still under
ground had been killed by force of
the explosion.
The explosion is believed to have
been caused by ignition of dust, set
off by a miners shot.
Rescue work was undertaken in
systematic manner. The new federal
ambulance made a quick
run of thirty-four miles from Birming-
ham, arriving here simultaneously
with the Tennessee Coal & Iron COM
panys rescue car dispatched by spe-
cial train. The mine fan, which was
not damaged by the blast, was set in
motion at once.
The mine was comparatively new,
and was said by officials to have been
provided with modern equipment
