Brief For Baker Filed In Warner
Libel Suit.

Interest in political libel suit, that of
former United States Attorney Daniel W.
Baker against Brainard IL. Warner, was
revived yesterday afternoon when attor-
neys for Mr.. Baker filed brief in the Su-
preme Court of the United States, where
the case is to be reviewed on writ of
error. The alleged libel occurred in March,
1908. In the District Supreme Court Mr.
Baker was awarded $4,000 damages
The Court of Appeals of the District, how
ever, reversed the judgment of the lower
court and further appeal was taken by the
plaintiff to the Supreme Court of the United
States. 1t is expected that the Supreme
Court will consider the case at an early
date.
The brief filed yesterday is vOluminOus
and gives complete history of the case.
1t was filed by Attorneys Henry f. Davis
and Frank j. Hogan. At the time the al
legged libel occurred Mr.. Baker was United
States Attorney for the District of Column
bia and b. II. Warner was candidate for
the Republican nomination for Congress
from the Sixth Maryland district against
former Representative Pearre. Mr.. War
ner. it was alleged, had published in a 10
cal morning newspaper advertisements
libeling Mr.. Baker.
When the case was reviewed in the
Court of Appeals the higher court held that
the declaration filed in the District Supreme
Court must be held to be fatally defective,
and that it wholly failed to state cause
of action. The Court of Appeals held that
the declaration and libel must be tested
by its sufliciency as one in Islander for the
same words if spoken, that the writing
declared on was not libelous or actionable
on its face, and that the alleged libel was
not actionable because the words spoken"
would not subject the party charged to
an indictment for crime involving moral
turpitude, or subject him to an Infamous
punishment.
The attorneys for Mr.. Baker now urge
the Supreme Court Of the United States
to reverse the decision Of the Court Of APP
peals on the ground that the appellate
court was in error in its fndings.-Wash-

TO ERADICATE TICK,
Pest Injuries Hide as Well as the Body
of Cattle.

Washington, Aug. 4.-The presence
of the tick among cattle in the South
ern States not only lessons the value
of cattle on the hoof, government ev-
perts said in report published today
but causes a lower grading Of hides
which means to the producer loss OF
many thousands of dollars. The ex-
perts claim the Southern cattle raiser
loses $1.26 on every hide infested with
the tick.
Campaigns to eradicate the pest have
been waged with considerable success
by bureau of animal industry veteri-
narians. Tennessee probably will be
the first State to be entirely free from
the quarantine against the tick, which
already has been eradicated in fifty
one counties.
Cattle raisers have spent less than
fifty cents per head in the campaign
in Tennessee while they have gained
about ST per head thereby. There are
100000 head of cattle in the counties
freed of ticks, and the immediate ben
eft of these owners agricultural ex,
perts say has been about s3,50O,O0o.

ed: There is a slight difference be-
tween road surveying and road build
ing
"'Well, Uncle Johnny said his
friend, a few weeks later, they are
digging dirt over on the hill now and
the old man replied: 'Dirt-digging and
road-completing are two powerful diff
ferent propositions.
FINALLY his friend said: Uncle
Johnny, they have got the road made;
they have finished the track, and the
train has arrived; the engine is out
there on the track now. Go and look
at it."
Uncle Johnny went out and looked
at it; cold and lifeless the engine
stood; and when they asked: What
do you think of it now. Uncle Johnny
ny?' he said: They'll never bulge
'er. Why he says, 4 don't see any
traces or single-trees, and besides
that it amt a fit track for mules, nc
how"
"sBut you see,' his friend said,
they are going to run it with steam.
They will unite the forces of wood and
water and fire, and send it down the
track pulsing like thing of life
But Uncle Johnny said with convic-
ton: They'll never bulge her
cat last, when they had got steam
I'D, the engine went down the track,
whistle blowing and sparks flying.

what do you say now?' And he re-
piled: BY golly! they'll never stop

"Well, I guess I'll take it-three

ANOTHER FLEES
UNION DEPUTY SHOOTS R. L. HEN.
DERSON.
w. P. Scott, Alleged AccOmplice With
Dead Man in TerrOrizing House
Not Caught.

Union, August 5.-At Lockhart, in
this county, about 4 o'clock yesterday
morning, R. L. Henderson was
shot and killed by Russell Gibson, a
deputy sheriff, at that place. 1t seems
that Henderson and W. P. Scott had
recently gone to Lockhart from Whit
mire and were boarding at the house
of man named Broom. About
o'clock Sunday evening these TWO
went into the boarding house after
supper time and Mrs. Broom told
them that they we're late and could
get only cold supper. They demanded
a hot meal and finally, it is charged,
threw fruit jar at one Of the women
in the house, cutting her arm. Mrs.
Broom's son then came up and was
beaten and upon the approach of the
husband he was covered with pistol
by Henderson. One of the men walk
ed out and knocked down young
man who was passing with a young
woman. Then, it is alleged, one of
them, presumably Henderson, fired
his pistol at T. l.. Barber, superin-
tendent of Lockhart mills, who came
upon hearing the noise. Sheriff
FAINT was notified of the trouble and
went to the scene at once and a
search was made for the trouble
makers. Finally Deputy Gibson and
two or three others came upon Scott
and Henderson in the woods near
Lockhart between and 5 o'clock
yesterday morning. Upon their show
ing fight Gibson shot Henderson.
Scott escaped and has not yet been
captured.
