care Of, and should the bank examiner
happen to visit the bank, he would be
in a bad way.
Meanwhile Dave Brown had been
getting busy and drew another check
in favor of Tom Baker the day after
the first check was drawn, and the
money was deposited to his account in
the Lexington bank. The following
day he went to see a large tobacco
grower some fifty miles from Clifton
and told him that he was not there
to talk tobacco just then, but that he
wanted him to arrange to open bank
account in his name in his home bank,
and that he would give him a check
for FIVE thousand dollars, which was
to be handled just as the matter was
handled with Tom Baker. This ar
rangement was satisfactorily concluded
and the following day he called at the
Clifton Bank and told George White
that he had drawn a check for FIVE
thousand dollars in favor of Fred
Thomson, as he was buying tobacco
from him, and would probably have to
send him about three thousand dollars
more on the following day. He could
readily see that the news disturbed the
old man, for he said to him, 81 am
glad you have told me of this, Dave,
for we country bankers, who are con-
stantly loaning money to farmers at
this time of the year, do not carry any
great amount of money on hand, and
| like to know in advance just about
when you are going to need your
money"
Dave Brown, who had, for the past
four or five days of the most painful
uncertainty, been endeavoring to locate
Jessup by wiring and writing him and
had been unable to reach him, told lie
and he felt the circumstances would
absolve his conscience-and said, "Jes-
sup has instructed me to look after
these two deals of Bakers and Fred
Thomson's, and he stated that within
the next few days he would probably
need fifteen thousand dollars for an
Eastern deal, and while he had not ex
,ected to use this money for some three
weeks or a month yet, he would have
the money from other sources by that
time"
"You will then need" said George
White. Fifteen thousand dollars within
q week"
81 fully expect So" said Dave, "and
IN addition to that have a deal on up
in Woodford County, involving some
four thousand dollars, that | expect to
close next week"
The old man Strengthened himself
back in his chair, but with splendid self
control answered, well, the moneys
yours TO do with as you wish, Dave"
Dave left the bank feeling much
better than he had felt for several
days, for he concluded, and correctly,
too that George White had been using
every means to raise this money, but
he determined TO take no chances and
to get hold of his money as soon as
possible. Several days later he sent
Fred Thomson a check for three thou-

WOULD IMPEACH JUDGE
AS WORkINGMAN'S foe
Representative Nicely Introduces Bill
Attacking A. G. Dayton. West
Virginia Jurist.
ASKS PRELIMINARY HEARING

The Impeachment Of Judge Aston G..
Dayton. Federal District Court. North
ern district of West Virginia, was pro-
posed in a resolution introduced yes
terday by Representative Matthew M
Neely. of West Virginia. Democrat.
Labor organizations of the coal region
are urging the impeachment. Mr.. Nee
ly said ne had received petitions from
5000 labor men in the district urging
the removal Of Judge Dayton.
The Neely resolution asks the Ju-
dietary Committee to consider the fol-
lowing charges against Judge Day
ton:
That he has issued injunctions
against labor unions, which place them
beyond the pale of the law. and which
make their deliberative actions con-
spiracy and their members miscreants
and felons;
That he has had men and women
arrested on the sole charge of asking
other men to Join the union;
That by the use of Injunction he has
prevented the exercise of the constitu-
tional right Of the people to assemble
peaceably to petition for redress Of
wrongs;
That under prosecution by contempt
proceedings he recently found Mayor
sentenced him to serve sixty days in jail
for the sole reason that said Schwartz
rented his property to a labor man;
THAT he has publicly declared his an
tagonism to persons not yet on trial,
whom he expected to be tried before
him:
That in the hearing Of contempt pro-
ceedings he ignores the West Virginia
laws and the Federal constitution, and
refuses to follow the decisions OF the
Supreme Court;
That his decisions have been such as
to result in their reversal by a higher
court, but that such appeals are so
costly as to be prohibitive to some. and
that this puts a price upon Justice which
keeps il out Of the reach Of poor peo-
pie"
Representative Neely will ask the Ju-
dietary Committee to give a preliminary
hearing on the charges to A. NJ. Belcher.
