MAKES Confession
Wayne Spinks Tells Story =
Seven Others Arrested
by Sheriff.

Wayne Spinks who, until few
days ago was in Jail under indictment
charged with the whipping of Ruhe
Howard and wife. has made com-
0le.e confession to the court officials
Howard and his wife were most bur-
tally beaten on the night of June l2.
near their home on the Rosine :oad
about seven miles from town. How
ard ran little store on the road and
it was also partly wrecked. No cause
has ever been assigned for this bru-
tai outrage. We have seen the rem
nants of the switches, which were no
ordinary ones. but hard seasoned tim
Der, at least eight or ten feet long ORR
gionally, but now worn and splinter
ed until only two or three feet Of
them remain to tell the brutality Of
the crime. They were trimed with
sharp. protruding spikes left where
the smaller branches had been cut
away.
Immediately after Spinks told his
story. warrants were issued for the
following men who were placed under
arrest by Sheriff 8. o. Keown and
his deputy. s. A. Bratcher. Ep Ri
singer. Robt. Daugherty. Henry Lik-
ems. Evert Peach. Henry Wright. Jess
Ashford and Les Ashford.
Spinks has given bond. There are
rumors of other confessions and
much uneasiness exists among the
former regulators who are now
themselves In fair way to be regu-
lated by the law.

lucky, was injured while motoring
near here yesterday afternoon. A fell
low motorists machine had become
mired in the mud when he turned to
the side of the road to permit a
wagon and team to pass. Morrow
came along and took hold of a wheel,
which turned and caught in his right
hand between the spokes and steer
ing rod. His right thumb was brok-
en-. One of Morrow's greatest assets
is his cordial handshake and his
friends fear he will not be able to use
his hand for weeks.

MORE BLUNDERS
BY DEMOCRATS
Left Out Date to Take
Effect.
War Tax Law Found to Provide
No Time to
Begin.

Washington, d. c., July 7.-Ope
of the most vital inexcusable errors
a legislative body can commit is to
pass law containing a discrepancy
in the date it shall take effect.
The Democratic Congress incorpor-
ated just such blunder in the war
tax" law.
Section 21 of the law declares that
''the stamp taxes prescribed ON the
articles provided for in Schedule B
shall attach to all such articles thir-
ty days after the approval of the act
Schedule B itself. however, pro-
vides that sail articles and prepara-
tions provided for which are in the
hands of manufacturers or dealers OIL
December L, 1914, shall be subject
to the payment of the stamp taxes
therein" etc.
The two provisions are absolutely
contradictory. When the Treasury
Department came to enforce the law
it was unable to harmonic the two
conflicting dates. Congress had ad
journed and it was impossible to cor
rect the blunder by proper legislative.
action. 81.
A forced Interpretation was the on
ly alternative. The Department ar
bitrarily fixed the date of enforce
ment, virtually assuming a function
that belonged only to the legislative
body.
The whole subject of financial leg
islation seems to have been fatal
stumbling block to the Democrats.
While they have blundered in scores
of other important measures, this ten
dency has been specially emphasized
in every statute dealing with the re-
ceipt or expenditure of money to
conduct the affairs of government.
The last Congress passed three
laws notably designed to raise mon
ey,-first, the tariff law; second, the
income tax law; and third, the "war
tax" 1t is significant that the re-
venues from each fell short of the
amount needed, thereby contributing
to the treasury deficit, and has led
to a mass of expensive litigation be-
cause the legislative intent could be
determined only by judicial interpre-
tatiOn.

have been singularly honored by the
people of Ohio. the county of my ma
tivity, having been twice elected to
the hOnored and responsible position
of County Attorney, an honor con-
ferred on no other in the last quarter
of a century. In view of which it
is indeed gratifying to be encouraged
to become a candidate for the more
honorable and responsible position of
Commonwealth Attorney of a large
and populous District by those who
have been closely associated with
and most careful observers of my re-
cord during the five and one-half
years of my official life, as well as
many from all parts of the county

counties of Ohio Daviess, Hancock

The Ohio County Teachers Insti-

Christian Church by Supt. Shuts.
The devotional exercises were con-
Quoted by Rev. B. w. Napier, of the
Methodist church. Supt. Shuts was
elected chairman and Miss Eunice
Shuts secretary.
The welcome address was delivered
by Attorney A. d. Kirk and was re-
sponded to by Prof. N. L. Ross. Both
speeches were in happy vein.
1t was soon discovered that the
church would prove too small for all
the meetings and by a large majority
the Institute voted to hold at the
College Hall. which had been tender
ed the Institute, through Supt. Shuts
by Hartford School Board ten days
before. when 1t was learned that ow-
ig to a very heavy County and Quar-
terly Court docket the court house
would not be available. With its
,plendid modern equipments the Col
lege building is proving a very salts
factory place for holding the sessions.

many years teacher in Arkansas, is

Barnett has been supt. of schools at

sides filing the position of High

He seems to have a good grasp on
the duties of the position and his
