SHORT MEETING
COUNTY BOARD
ROUTINE MATTERS COME BE-
FORE THE COMMISSIONERS AT
THEIR MONTHLY MEETING.

The monthly meeting of the board
of county commissioners was held
last night, with Chairman Barrineau
presiding and all members present.
With one or two exceptions only rou-
tine matters were considered.
Jos. A. Hicks, the new supervisor OF
registration appeared before the board
and requested that his office be sup
piled with new registration books in
triplicate for the general election.
These books must be separate from
the books recently opened for the
Bryan primary law and it will be nee
essary to transfer all names to the
new ones. His request was granted.
J. n. Hutchins attorney for Fred
OFT, appeared before the board and re-
quested that the board change the
road now running through Mr.. Otis
property, the latter being willing to
defray the expense of opening a road
running around his property. This was
ordered. The board also ordered a
new road opened from the South
Brick Co.'S plant to the Clopton place,
near Brent.
Gam J. Morgan was elected mark
and brand inspector for the ensuing
year. Several pension applications and
notary public bonds were approved
and the bill of the sheriff for thirty
five deputies for the primary election
was approved and ordered paid.

COUNTY AND CAPTURED.

c. P. Cooper, a deserter from the
army. and who left the service when
stationed at Fort Barrancas over two
years ago. was returned to the post
yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Byrd,
who will collect reward of $50 for his
trouble Cooper, however, will be
locked up at the post and will later
be punished for desertion.
About two years and five months
ago. Cooper. deserted from the local
post, and shortly afterward was ar
rested. He was caught in Holmes
county. and when being brought to
this city in custody Of an officer, he
leaped from the train when it was
going at great speed, and made his
escape. He eluded officers for some
months and a few days ago was ar
rested by Sheriff Gregory Of Gads-
den county, from whom he came very
near making a getaway Cooper asked
the sheriff to let him be free to pack
his grip, and when the shackles were
removed, he made a dash for liberty
but was caught after quite a chase.
The fact was wired here that he had
been arrested and Deputy Byrd went
after him, finally returning him to the
post yesterday morning.

AS I sat at q recent luncheon at the

couldn't this club handle the city at
fairs?" There were about seventy
capable business men present: men Of

It seems to me that about three
commissioners or superintendent are
needed to devote their entiSe time, at
a salary Of $3.50 a month, to carrying
out the wishes and commands Of the
citizens at large.
And 1t seems that those wishes and
commands could best be ascertained
