TO Vote ON
JAIL PROPOSITION

court house last Friday was not
as largely attended as was hoped
for, but every man present was
positive that the county needed
and must have a new Jail build
ing.
r. ID. Worrell called the meet
ing to order who suggested that
Judge John w. Beagles serve as
chairman, who was unanimously
elected.
Upon taking the chair Mr.. Bea-
giles stated positively that he ia
vored a new Jail, but he believed
the people were opposed to a bond
issue. That word does not sound
good. Mr.. Beagles believed that
a Jail structure should be erected
that would answer all purposes
for 40 or so years to come.
Ms. Myers made a speech favor
ing 20 cent levy. That would
raise about $4,000, and many
taxpayers thought that amount
sufficient. That sum might be
supplemented by any funds at
the commany of the County Court
if more money were absolutely
needed.
Sam Bovine made ringing
speech favoring a new jail-one
in size and equipment sufficient to
do for so years. He was also op-
posed to bonds, but favored a 10
cent levy for three years.
E. r. Locke thought that the
plans and specifications for the
proposed building should be pub
lished, so that the taxpayers
would understand just what they
were to get. He thought it would
take at least 5000 to get the
building and equipment that is
needed.
Charles Householder favored a
new Jail all right, and, since
thinking about it, he believed he
rather favored a direct tax for
raising the money.
Fred A. Morris thought ii
would take between $4,000 and
100000 to build the structure re-
quired. The steel work alone
would cost between $4,000 and
$4,000.
Judge Charles Bledsoe favored
a $4,000 structure. He thought
it could not be built for less.
G. L. Denham favored a direct
tax for raising the money.
County Attorney A. c. Whit
son plead that a suitable building
and equipment could not be Sc
cured for less than $4,000.
VIM. Pollock favored a direct
tax and not less than $25,O0O.
Judge George Robertson favor
ed the 20 cents levy.
Hon e. G. Waters stated tina
he voted against the issue at thu
last election, He was opposed t.
bonds, but would favor the q
cent levy.
Chester Starr favored most an.
old way to get the new Jail, bu
he wanted a plan that would ge
the matter off our hands, as 500
as possible.
j. j. F. johnson was for tn
Jail. Direct tax. Inform tn
voters, too, before the election, a
to plans, specifications and cost.
Judge John Gatson favored
20 cent levy.
A motion for a 20 cent levy ha
been made by Ms, Myers an
when the motion was put tn
chair called for rising vot,
The motion carried PRACTICAL
unanimously.
A motion was then adopte

ANYTHING FOR A PARDON.

Another scheme has been evolved
to secure q pardon for John Dietz.
1t is now claimed that he could not
have fired the shot which killed
Deputy Sheriff Oscar Harp.
His attorneys have affidavits from
the Winchester Arms company
showing that bullet from the Win
chester rifle carried by Dietz would
penetrate sixteen inches of Oak
without doubling. The bullet
which killed the deputy sheriff en-
tered his mouth and lodged in the
back of the skull and there doubled
up. 1t is alleged that Dietz tried
the case himself and was unacquainted
with the law and therefore his case
was not properly presented TO the
jury. The fact remains that Dietz
was trying to kill some one; was
defying the law of the lard and was
an unsafe man TO be at lcrge and per-
haps a bullet from a Winchester
rife, such as he carried might pene-
trate oak planks without doubling,
at close range. AT distance, the
result might be different
