cratic supporters Of Allen in Western
Wayne county charged that Reller's
two deputies in that part of the county
"A. r. Feemster, Cambridge City, and
r. r. Hatfield. Dublin-were holding
their offices irregularly.
Seek Campaign Material.
In this desperate effort to secure
Campaign material" against him these
men even prostituted the state board
Of accounts. 1t being claimed that
Feemster and Hatfield were not en-
titled to act as deputy prosecutors, a
Democratic caucus" was held at Cam
bridge City and at this meeting 1t was
decided to ask the accounts board to
assist them in their efforts to Eek
pose" Keller by sending deputies to ex-
anime the records Of Feemster and
Hatfield and determine the amount Of
fees they had collected.
Feemster knows that such action
was decided on at this meeting, be-
cause after its adjournment one Of
the men who attended it told him
what action had been taken. This
week two deputies arrived to conduct
their investigation.
This plan of attack on Keller fell
as flat as the one engineered against
him last night, because Feemster and
Hatfield are regularly serving as Rel
ler's deputies, therefore, are perfectly
entitled to collect fees in such cases
as they appear in. There was at no
time any charge made that Feemster
and Hatfield were dishonest. The at
tack on Keller hinged about the fimsy
allegation that these two men had
never been regularly appointed as dep
uties.
Fox Praises Keller.
A comparison Of the records Of AL,
len and Keller as prosecutor is inter.
esting. Reller's record is described
briefly by Judge Fox, candidate for
reelection on the Republican ticket:
"One Of the best prosecutors this coun-
ty has had since I have been on the
bench" It might also be added that
Keller has never had to employ any
one to assist him in the prosecution OF
cases.
Allen served as prosecutor from
August 26. 1912, until the first OF the
next year The prosecutor receives a
salary Of $500 a year paid by the state,
the remainder of his income being de-
rived from fees.
During tho four months Allen
hold this offIee II 10 known that it
cost the county Itself - so to en-
ploy attorneys to assist him az
deputies-or half Of tho salary the
prosecutor receives from the state
for q years work.
Nine days after Allen assumed his
duties as prosecutor this court order
was issued. ct is to be found on
Page 626, Book ]. clerks records):
Court Names Deputy.
THAT for the reason there is, in the
opinion of the court, a PUBLIC Me-
cEssiTY FOR THE APPOINTMENT
OF AN ASSISTANT PROSECUTING
ATTORNEY, the court hereby ap-
points Perry J. Freeman, a reputable
attorney Of the Wayne county bar, to
act as assistant prosecuting attorney
for the period Of two months from
this date at Z compensation Of SIS a
month"
So the public necessity" benefited
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-10-31

Perry J. Freeman to the extent of $3.50
of public funds.
After Freeman retired as assistant
prosecutor. Ray X. Shiveley was ap-
pointed to this place to assist in the
Lewis case at a salary of 500. This
made the total salaries of court ap-
pointed prosecutors $3.50.
No such court order has been 10
sued during Reiler's term Of Of
flee, there being no "pubIic ne
cessity" for such action.
Following the disastrous fires and a
reign of "bootlegging" at Greensboro,
Prosecutor Allen began an investiga-
ton in that town. Apparently the
residents of Greensboro were not con-
tent that this investigation should be
made by the prosecutor alone, so they
raised a fund and with 1t employed
Attorneys Wilfred Jessup and T. J.
Study to conduct an inquiry, and to
represent them before the grand jury
If necessary What these two attorneys
received for this work is not known.
Employ Assistants.
During Aliens brief term as prose
cutor there were three important cases
all criminal--brought to trial. He
had an assistant in each instance, and
in none Of the cases was a conviction
obtained.
One case was that Of the state
against Whalen, for murder. Another
was the state against May Fee Moore,
for murder. On the eve of his retire
ment from office the case of Jack
Lewis, charged with assault and bat
terry with attempt to commit an out
rage, was tried AS in the other two
cases an acquittal resulted.
In the Whalen case Attorney Will
fred Jessup assisted Allen in the
prosecution.

0rangeburg Farmer Shocked Ea

of Cameron were shocked to learn
this morning that Sidney S Halgier

Like most of the people of the town

tinuous flashing of the lightning ana

the corner bed post next to the WIN
dow. Another bed on which Mr
Haigler was sitting, only about TWO
feet from the one struck, was not
injured by the discharge, but the
electric shock was too severe for him
and he was dead in about 80 min
utes. His mother, who was IN his
room door, also received severe
shock. MIR Haigler was unmarried

Publicity VS.. Advertising.

If you should 60 out of doors and
stand on your head, wave your feet
wildly, all the while repeating the
Constitution of the United States
until a crowd collected and the
whole town was set talking-that
would be publicity" But it would
not be advertising.
If you put pair Of cub bears IN
your window, trained to dance the
turkey trot" and the bunny hug, y
and if they drew crowd which
looked like a Roosevelt reception
that would be publicity. But it
would not be advertising.
If you get out some souvenir
which children cry for, mothers beg
for, and fathers ask for; and if you
put it out in the usual manner, so it
failed to forcibly convey a message
of your goods-that would be pub
licity. But it would not be adver-
tising.
Publicity is just loud noise, heard
by many, without moral and with
out message.
Advertising is a message to many
people about your goods their high
quality; why people should buy of
you.
Moral-As your advertising medi-
um, select a good reliable newspaper,
DitA a guaranteed circulation, and
talk to your expectant patrons
straight from the shoulder.

Moved into New Quarters.

The Kingstree Hardware Co and
the Peoples Mercantile Co, for a
number of years past doing business
at the corner of Academy and Mill
streets, have moved into their splen-
did new store houses on Hampton
avenue. A force of carpenters are
still engaged in putting the finishing
touches on these elegant buildings,
but they in no way interfere with
the business of these popular firms,
who are getting their large stocks
of hardware and merchandise into
shipshape order as rapidly as they
can.
These new business houses are
handsome and valuable additions to
the town and as such will compare
favorably with any in this section of
the State.
Messrs Milhous & Jennings have
moved their furniture business into
one of the spacious store-rooms just
completed by the Peoples Mercan-
tile Co.

CONDITION OF COTTON 1876.
Journal of Commerce Figures
Based on 1000 Reports.

New York, June 29:-The marked
tendency to reduce acreage in Texas
and Oklahoma has caused general
reduction for the whole belt amount
ing to IL per cent. Of the i'm
portant States only Mississippi and
Louisiana showed an increase, being
a per cent and 6 per cent, respec-
lively.
Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas and
Tennessee remain the same as last
year. Owing to unfavorable con-
ditions in the early half of the
month and the general lateness of
the season the percentage of cotton
advanced but slightly, being 1876
per cent, against 1872 per cent a
month ago, or an advance of GA
per cent. This compares with oo.9
per cent in 1913, S1.3 per cent in
1912, $50 in 1911 and 80.6 for the
ten-year-average.
These reports are based on the
replies of over 1000 special cor
respondents of the Journal Of Com
merce, bearing an average date of
June %.
