Greek in Jail Here
on Murder Charge

Stretton was uncommunicative and
has kept the proceedings today enc
tirely secret. The hearing, according
to local attorneys, is equivalent 70
an examination at port OF entry,
and If Georgopoulos is deprted ie
will be on a charge of being unlaw-
fully resident Of this country. He
is represented by G. s. Crawford at
the hearing.
A brother OF the prisoner and his
partner in business are here from
Concordia. They say that George
poulos came to this country three or
four years ago. and profess ignor-
ance as to his antecedents. In ADi-
lene Georgopoulos has been gOinS
under the names Of Anest. HIS
brother and partner say 1t ID quite
common for a Greek to have two or
three names, and are non-committal
when asked what his name really is.
They seem certain, however. thar
he will not be deported, and say
\ they do not know whether he CONF
mitted the crime or not.
! Bithos says the prisoner served
Ilfive years in Greecian penitentiary
/ before his arrival in the United
states. Again the brother and the
partner profess ignorance. Bithos
, SAYS he is sure OF his man, as they
came from the same state, and ne
has seen him there.

story of Bithos, Gecrgopoulos Of

No Fair To Be Held
in Abilene This Year

lost money last year and IT was
deemed better this year not to open
the gates than to attempt to give a
fair with the probability that there
would not be an income sufficient
to pay the expenses. 1t costs some
thing like $4,000 to give a fair and
this is not a good year to count on
taking in that money at the gate.
So there will be no fair-not un-
til 1914.

The fair directors in their session
last evening decided to postpone the
fair one year. None will be held
this fall.
This action was taken because OF
the dry weather which has prevented

products coming to perfection suit

than give poor fair, 1t was thought
best to wait another year. The fair

ATTORNEY GENERAL
 RENDERS OPINION
Upon Rights of Contractors To
 Accept Fines Where Pris-
 Oners Have Been Ac- cepted.

Newport, Ark, july 2, 1913. Editor Independent,
 Newport, Arkansas, Dear Sir:
 Extracts from an opinion of the Attorney General of Arkan- sas appeared in your paper Of issue July 1st, 1913, relating to the contract between Jackson county's judge and J. H. Keel for the keeping and working of the county prisoners. l am ire quently asked by citizens who have q right to know, some ques- tions with reference to the con- tract, and the contractors rights and duties.
 I have always given my opln- ion upon the various proposi- tions submitted to me, but oc- sionally some have taken issue with me, and that prompted me, after consultation with the county judge and the sheriff, to obtain the opinion of the Attor- ney General of Arkansas upon these various questions which submitted to him, together with a copy of the contract:
 1st. A, convicted of misde. meanor, fined $10, costs $1O pays the fine before the contrac tor calls for him.
 Would the county be entitled to the fine?
 2nd. The facts are the same except that the prisoner ol some one for him, pays the tin' in money to the contractor af ter the contractor has custody of the prisoner.
 Would the county be entitled to the fine?
 3rd. Where C is convicted il Circuit Court for running blind tiger, fines aggregate, say $9OO, costs, say $2OO, and al additional punishment of 3( days in jail assessed by jury ane contractor pays his costs ane takes him under the contract.
 Now if it can be shown tha' c is working for wages, anc not working out his fine ol costs, or is not serving his time in jail, and if any, only part of the time.
 (a) Is the contractor liable to county for fine?
 (b) Can contract be an, nulled?
 Co Can prisoner be made tC serve his time in jail, and if so how and where?

There is no doubt in the minds Of many
that Greenvlle is to "come into its own"
again. The village has just passed
through a very discouraging period of bust
ness depression, but there is a rift in the
clouds and a rainbow can be seen by those
who have the welfare of the place at heart.
The great hope of the future lies in the
building Of an electric railway from Center.
dale and if that can be brought about,
there will be no need OF future worry.
The population will increase, real estate
values will become enhanced and Green
Vile, which is naturally one of the pret-
tiest and most healthful villages i'll the
state, will be sure to go forward on the
road TO prosperity by "eaps and bounds"
In order TO bring this about, its people
cannot be idle, fold their hands and wait.
They have got to make some effort or the
road will never be built. 1t is an i'm.
provement that will help not only Green
Vile, but the whole town Of Smith6eld
and the people of the town should work
together for its accomplishment.
