BUY BIC TIMBER TRACT

Geo. L. Green and J. w. William
son recently closed q deal for the
purchase of large tract of tim
Der land along Black river between
Strawberry and Clover Bend. The
deal involves what is said to be
one of the finest tracts of timber
ed land in Lawrence county, and
represents an expenditure of
about $4,000.
They expect to begin the work
of erecting one or two mills on
the land at once and will work off
the timber and later place the
land on the market for farming or
grazing land, it being located in a
very fertile section of country.
This makes about five mills Mr..

REVERSE COUNTY
DEPOSITORY CASE
Judgment of independence Coun-
ty Court Set Aside by SUI
preme Court

The Supreme court Monday re-
versed the independence County
Court in designating the Citizens
Bank & Trust Co, Of BBaatteessvviillIIee ,
as depository for the county
funds.
In December the county court
advertised for bids from banks
desiring to keep the county funds.
At the January term of court bids
were received from the Citizens
Bank & Trust Co. and the Union
Bank & Trust Co., both of Bates
vile, the latter offering to pay 4 !
per cent interest on county funds
and the former one fourth per
cent more than any other bank,
provided its bid was not to exceed
Al per cent.
The court designated the Citi-
zens Bank as depository, consider
ing its bid 4t per cent. The
Union appealed to the circuit
court, which sustained the county
court and the case was then ap-
pealed to the supreme court. The
supreme court holds that the Citi-
zens bid was not a legal bid and
was unfair, and orders that the
decision of the county court be
vacated and set aside.

INSTALL ELECTRIC
LIGHT PLANT HERE
Another rluch Needed Improve
ment Now Seems Assured
For N e wark

L. P. and w. J. Caldwell have
submitted a proposition to the
people of Newark to install an
electric light plant here, and it is
very probable that work on the
plant will begin within few
days.
The proposition is to install a
small but thoroughly modern
plant. They will use the fastest
type 100 h. p. Deitzel oil engine,
using crude petroleum for fuel.
The alternating current system
will be used, the same system
used by large plants in all the
best cities of the country.
The Messrs. Caldwell are prac-
teal electrical men and have been
connected with some of the larg-
est and best plants in the country.
L. P. Caldwell was for a number
of years city electrician at Bates
vile and his son, although young
man, has been connected with
various plants in many parts of
the country and has spent almost
his entire life in this work and in
the study of electricity.
They agree to put in one of the
best and most modern plants in
the state, and on last Tuesday
night an ordinance granting them
fifty year franchise was introduce
ed in the meeting of the city coun-
Gil. Every member of the council
expressed themselves enthu-
siastically in favor of the pro-
position, and Mr.. Caldwell, who
was present at the meeting, stated
that he would begin placing ma
terial on the ground at once for
the erection of the plant. He ex-
poets to have the plant in opera
ton and ready to turn on the
lights sometime in the early fall,
probably about the first of Septem-
Der.
