Lincoln county's regular monthly
trade day was held here Saturday
with different program from that
of any its predecessors. the custom
being to have something new each
80 days.
The days features were the
forming of a parade, the procession
marching, some riding and some
walking, to Pink Mason's farm,
two miles from the city. where
speeches followed. An inspection
of newly built potato house for
kiln-drying sweet potatoes, accord
ing to government methods was the
motive which impeIled the long
trip.
Talks were made by w. H.

HOW 1T OCCURRED.

/ The matter of the retention oi
Policeman Jack Lane, who killed
Mack Ward ten days ago was
brought up before the council al
last nights session by Alderman E.
M. Bee.
1t has been current rumor for
several days and developed at last
nights meeting that Lane had been
slated for removal before the kill
ing, all Of the council members
concurring, but on account of the
homicide at the meeting set for
this action it was decided best to
take no action in the premises on
account of the trouble in which he
had become involved until after a
hearing at the preliminary trial.
Since the investigation by JUS
tice K. S. Butler a petition has
been circulated addressed to the
Mayor and Board Of Aldermen
asking that Lane be retained on the
force. praying the board not to ac-
cept his resignation and stating
that he has ON several occasions
shown his nerve and grit. and fur
ther also that his salary be raised.
This petition, however, was not
presented at the meeting last night.
When the matter was brought up
by Alderman Bee last night and il
was insisted on by that alderman
that some disposition be made of
the matter, seconded by Alderman
Wentworth, Mayor Heuck, who is
a warm friend of Lanes, and who
subjected himself to criticism by
unusual interest shown at the trial,
Notwithstanding the fact that the
only outsiders not members of the
council proper present we're Mar
shal R. L. Davis. City Attorney A.
A. GonH, Supr. K. 5. Purser. OF the
power house and Paul M. Hobbs,
of The Leader. Immediately arose
and stated that he thought that the
Board ought to 60 into executive
session over the question. With
the exception of Attorney Cohn,
who remained, the three onlookers
named above retired before fur
ther emphasis could be land upon
the desirabilIty of their absence.
1t is well to state here that while
Attorney Cohn is Lane S lawyer ano
defended him before Justice Butler,
he was not and is not employed by
the city to SO do.
The minutes this morning do not
show any report whatever of the
action. of the council in executive
session.

ACCIDENTAL CUTTING SCRApE
At I. ". HlLTOM'S PLACE

On Saturday night a son of Mr..
T. w. Hilton and a young compan-
ion, Luke Smith, engaged in a
scuffie on Mr.. Hilton's place west
of the city, at the time an enter
tainment was being given at Mr..
Hilton's. in which young Smith
was cut rather seriously in the
back.
IL is stated that both boys, whose
ages are about IA or Is years. haq
been drinking and the cutting was
looked upon as accidental, the
attacking boy saying be didn't know
his knife was open. DR.. Mcleod
dressed the wounds.
With their brains muddled by
whisky the prospect is these boys
will wake up some day to sadder
realization than the present. Whis-
Ky has caused worse results.

SORGHUM INDUSTRY ASSURED,
INSURING RUNNING OF FACTORY

Lincoln county farmers, whether
in peace or strife. at their tiresides
or out on the battlefield of life,
consider seriously before they take
an advance step. No matter how
long they take. when they settle a
question they generally settle il
right. AT present they are solving
the sorghum question in the most
sensible way in the world by SUBJ
scribing acres of Lincoln county
real estate to the cultivation of the
product, in response TO the mer-
chants Of Brookhayen who are back.
ing the industry. These merchants
are urging the cooperation Of the
farmers to the extent of /. 600 acres.
which will mean at least 100. 900
gallons of syrup to be handled by
the proposed factory.
The latest report is SAB acres and

AND NOW COMES ONE CHARLEY
MUSES. ASKING A PARDON

Through his attorney, Hon. j. A.
Maui, petition mas been presented
Gov. Brewer asking for the pardon
of Charley Moses, who has been in
the county jail for about eighteen
months serving a sentence for re-
failing.
The Governor has written Dis
trict Attorney wall asking his
opinion as to the advisability of
pardUning Moses. Mr.. Wall has
replied in a letter very strongly
opposing Moses pardon saying
Moses is the King Bee of the
whole Moses family and if he is let
out ne will sell more whisky in
twenty-tour hours tnan the court
can dispose of IN az official way in
a month time If all the cases were
brought to light and dOcketed for
trial.
AS the letter also stated, next to
the Carrie Powell case in winch q
pardon was granted some time back
Moses takes the stano, as the most
notorious ana altogether objection
able breaker OF the law as it re-
Iates TO Illicit whisky selling, IN
this vicinity. A
Those who at that time were 50
opposed to the granting of the Car
RE Powell pardon nave now another
opportunity to protest and before
1t is everiastingly too late.
The Leader earnestly hopes that
every lover of law and advocate OF
morality and decency IN this city,
at least. will write the Governor
and torestail this second attempt,
IN very recent months to cram a
nauseating dose down the throats
Of remonstrant people.
And as far as Inc Leader is con-
cerned, there will be little paIlla-
Lion in seeing the pill passed on for
some other community to swallow,
as in the Powell case.
Governor Brewer cannot and will
not disregard the will OF the moral
element OF the community, If it is
made known to hlm. Brookhaven
should so entrench itself behind
existing law, as to be invulnerable
Co such attacks as have been made
on its goou name of late by the
taking OF human life (wnether just

and the resultant expose Of the sin

A preventive may be easily dis
cerned in a refusal Of the Moses
pardon BY the Governor. Write to

is not granted.
