SALEM
.srre,Al eesars,,sDrser,

SALEM, Nov. 1.-THE Harrison
Doddridge Bi-County Farmers Insti-
tute has been in session here begin
ming Tuesday morning. 1t has been
only fairly well attended, although
the talks and discussions have been
very interesting and helpful to farm
ers. c. c. Hardman. of Spencer, an
eminent authority on farm problems
has been present and made the prin-
cipal talks before the institute on
Tuesday. The only criticism that could
be made of this farmers meeting Is
the lack Of attendance by the real
farmers themselves and their sons,
and the farmers wives and daughters.
The question Of interest to the farm
ers wives have been discussed very
satisfactorily by Miss Nellie NJ. Bar
nett. A very creditable exhibit Of
farm products has been on display at
the institute and ample prizes are
offered to those exhibiting.
Charles Morrow, who recently was
transferred from this oil field to Tul-
sa, Okla, has returned to Salem. He
was displeased with the work and
country in the west and chose to re-
turn to the Mountain state.
The Rev. E. ]. Woofter has returned
from Spencer where he spent Sunday.
Prof. A. P. Morrison, county SUI
perintendent of schools, attended the
Farmers Institute Tuesday.
George w. and John w. Williams,
of Marshville, were prominent visitors
here Tuesday.
Frequent conversation INDUCED in
by our citizens is the subject of high
taxes and the inquiry is often made
where the special district road tax is
expended, and If Tenmile district Sc
cures its due share of this fund.
All the glass factories here, two
window and one lamp chimney, are
now being operated to their full ca
pacity, and the daily march of the
workers to and from the factories
with dinner pals is gratifying
sight. Team work in the oil fields
also is more active than for some
time.

HUNT BURGLARS
Who Break into Store at Ad-
amston That Constable
Had Closed.

Burglars who forced an entrance
into the grocery store of Edward
Anvil at /Adamston Monday night are
being sought by county officers and it
is thought that the guilty parties will
soon be apprehended. The front door
OF the store was broken open.
The Anvil store wasclosed by coun-
ty officers several weeks ago because
Of financial difficulties and the
entire stock of goods was advertised
for sale. Some person or party has
made three raids on the store, each
time carrying of large amount of
the stock. The last raid was made
Monday night.
Constable Robert McClung, who
closed the store, removed the stock
to local storage house Tuesday af-
ternoon in order to keep the thieves
from getting any more Of it. The
officers feel sure that they know who
the guilty parties are and II caught
no mercy will be shown them.

NEW YORK, May 15.-(speciaD-i

NEW YORK, May 15.-(Special)-
Confident that he will be acquitted of
the murder of Herman Rosenthal,
East Side gambler, Charles Becker,
former police lieutenant, last week be-
gan his second fight for life in the
New York supreme court. He has as
his attorneys w. Bourke Cochran, the
famous lawyer and orator, and Mar
tin Manton, one of the leading GRIM
inal attorneys of New York.
Herman Rosenthal was murdered
on July 16, 1912. In October of the
same year he was tried and the jury
found him guilty, but, after Becker
had spent sixteen months in the death
house, the court of appeals reversed
the conviction and, on Feb. "a last,
ordered that new trial be given him.
Since Becker's last conviction he
has seen three reformers against him
Rose, Weber and Vallon-go free.
They confessed they procured the
murdeders of Rosenthal, but swore
that they had done so at Becker's
bidding, that they were agents acting
under his orders. They turned states
evidence and in so doing saved them
selves. And since his conviction the
four gunmen-actual doers of the
deed-have been sent to the electric
chair.
Becker today presents the same
picture of strength and masterfulness
that marked him at his first trial. He
has suffered deeply since his arrest.
A baby was born to him while he was
in the death house, but it lived only
one day. Then his mother died, and
on the day before he was taken from
Sing Sing his wifes mother passed
away.
Becker's friends profess to be con-
fident of the outcome. One of the
reasons for their assurance is the fact
that rarely, if ever, has a man been
convicted of murder after getting a
second trial. They cite the Molineaux
and the DIR. Kennedy cases, and the
thought of these gives them courage.
Each was convicted at the first trial
and each beat the charge after being
granted second trial.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1914-05-15

1t is understood that new and strik-
ing testimony tending to corroborate
the story of Rose, Weber and Vallon
will be brought out at the present
trial. District Attorney Whitman,
who is in full charge of the prosecu-
ton, has developed points that were
obscure in the first trial, and in so
doing he has added such strength to
the case that he plans not to use sew
eral of his former witnesses. Among
those rejected, according to the pres
ent scheme, are Morris Luban, Max
Margolis, James Hallen and Sam
Schepps.
One big point that must be settled
by Judge Seabury, the presiding JUS
tice, has to do with the introduction
of evidence of Becker's grating. At
the first trial the district attorney
was prepared to show that Becker on
a salary of less than $500 a year
had bank accounts totalling something
like $4,000. He offered to prove this,
but evidence was barred by Justice
Golf.
The judicial phase of this question
has never been ruled upon by other
than the trial court 1t is believed by
many students of Jurisprudence that
the district attorney has the right to
nut this evidence on the record, since
lit is part of the motive. The theory
of the prosecution is that Becker
caused Rosenthal's death because he
feared RosenthaPs exposures and be-
cause he feared that such exposures
would cut him off from the graft he is
accused of having got.

To set these rumors at rest, Premier

ment. He said: Japan is paying no
attention to the American Mexican
situation. If a declaration of war is
issued Japan will of course observe
strict neutrality"

TO REMOVE DOORS FROM ICE
BOXES.

An easy way to prevent odors in an
ice box is to place a can of coke in
the box. This will take up all gases
and prevent milk from tasting of
onions or vegetables which may be
kept in the box.
In factories where bad odors are apt
to spoil the mems lunches put up in
pals or baskets, box can be con-
structed to hold these receptacles and
a large pail of coke placed in it. Any
thing placed in this box will remain
free from odors, and fresh.

Railroads RepOrtIiLosses

Railroad earnings continue to de-

juggling with the bookkeeping. 1t has
been charged that the railroads are
trying to show unreal losses in order
to induce the Interstate Commerce
Commission to permit them to raise
their freight rates by $50.
In eight months, according to the
reports of 35 systems, the income has
fallen off $59,000,00O in a total busi-
ness of about $900,00U,000.

leans, we should hae against us an
