MURDER AT COTTON PLANT

{ Cotton Plant, Aug. "A. -Poss- es are searching the White river bottoms for Deputy Sheriff James Hill, who is charged with having shot and killed Jack c. Foster, 37, a well-known resident of Cotton Plant, formerly of Gree ley, Neb.
 Eyewitnesses say Foster was unarmed and was in his shirt sleeves aiding in strengthening the levee on the White river when Hill rode up and demanded 1885 which he alleged Foster owed him. The spectators say Foster denied owing the money and that hot words were exchanged, after which Hill pulled an automatic revolver and fired. The bullet pierced Fosters heart and he fell dead. Hill then rode away and disappeared in the river bottoms.
 Foster is survived by his wife and three small children. He was contractor for the construc- tion of the dump for the Cotton Plant and Southwestern railroad, which is being built from this place.
 His body will be buried at Brinkley tomorrow, funeral ar engagements having been delayed pending the arrival of relatives from Greeley and Lincoln, Neb. - Arkansas Gazette, Aug. 25.
 Cotton Plant, Aug. 25. Dep uty Sheriff Jim Hill, who shot and killed Jack c. Foster, six miles west of here Sunday, is at his home in the White river bot toms, and the officers seem per- fectly satisfied to allow him to remain there.
 Hill was seen at McClelland yesterday and he sent a message to the deputy sheriff here telling the officer he could come and get him if he wished, but on account of the floods he said he preferred to remain with his family until the wafer subsided. He said he would come in and surrender as soon as the water begins to fall.
 Relatives of MT. Foster arrived today from Greeley and Lincoln. Neb., and took the body to Brinkley for burial. Gazette.

Merely supply n Demand!
The persons engaged in the liquor
business contend that they are simply
a want and a need The demand is
here, otherwise there would be no sup
ply; that the people have an unalten-
able and Unborn and God-given right
to their product, that IL relieves more
misery than it causes, that it produces
more Joy than sorrow; that it adds
to the efficiency, instead Of taking
away from it; that it is a tonic for the
body, producing stronger and healthier
minds. which is a greater preventive
OF crime OF all kinds and causes a
lesser demand for Institutions such as
Jafls and hospitals for the insane, fee
bleminded, etc, than would be re-

over the preceding year, Mr.. Woolner

commissioners report that prohibition
does not lessen the demand for liquor
but merely changes the legitimate
manufacture and distribution for the
illegitimate.
