What has Imperial county got to
show for the quarter-mil dollars

years and to excuse the total depletion
of county funds?

agement of county affairs by the su-
pervisors, and this is the judgment
one hears expressed on every hand.
Whether this will imply recall
election is not known. One hears talk
of this possibility on the streets, and
it may result in action being taken.
The street argument in the case runs
thus:

of our affairs to this board of super

visors and the present condition is the
result. Dare we leave these affairs
in the same control tor two years
more, and, if We do, what will be the
condition of affairs at the end Of that
period?
Imperial county should he one of
the least taxed counties in the state.
The taxable property is in a compact
body. The road mileage per inhabitant
is small.
Yet the tax money in four years
doubles, and in spite of that in mid
year the county becomes bankrupt.
The Press is averse to making such
exposures as it has made. But there
are time when bad situations demand
exposure, that they can be corrected.
Ordinarily this journal believes the
best service a newspaper can render
a community is to cooperate with
those who have been chosen for pub
lie duties, but there are exceptions to
this rule, and it is of great import
ance that the public should know of
the bad state of county affairs, that
the people can apply such remedy as

To bring the best returning?
Tell you what we all should do
Should try John 0yler's plan;
Experiment the whole year through,
On new.ground, clay and sand,
Let's leave the cotton thing off right
And raise more corn and hay
You'll find the work easier a sight,
And, law! how it will pay,
Grow more peas, rye, oats and wheat
And corn above them all.

And eggs are help in time Of need

SHERIFF Has ANOTHER
TRIP FOR NAUGHT
Man Wanted Here On Charge
Of Murder Is Sentenced to
Missouri Prison.

Three men giving the names of
Thomas Mccall, William Barry and
Harry jackson robbed the State
Bank Of Duenwed, Mo, of S1,606 on
Wednesday of last week. Within
an hour after the commission Of
the crime the robbers were in the
custody of officers. They were re-
moved to Carthage, Mo, where cir-
cult court was in session.
Friday Sheriff Kirtley received
word from the authorities at Car
thaGe stating the belief that the
man giving his name as Mccall is
The man wanted in this county for
the murder of R. K. Arnold at Cen
T. ter some months ago. Sheriff Kirt-
ley Immediately left for that place,
and on his arrival there found that
Mccall is positively the man for
whom officers in different parts of
the country have been on the lock-
out since the tragedy at Center oc-
CURED.
! However, the Missouri authorities
refused to release Mccall into the
custody Of Sheriff Kirtley that he
might be brought back here to ans
wer to the charge of murder. In
stead, the bandit was sentenced to
serve a term of ten years in the
Missouri state penitentiary, follow
ing his plea of guilty to the charge
of bank robbery His two compan-
ions received a similar sentence.
The recent grand jury in session
at Evening Shade returned an in
dictment charging murder in the
first degree against L. A, Wilson
for the killing Of r. K. Arnold at
Center, the circumstances of which
tragedy need no recounting here,
1t is said at Antlers, Okla, where
the bandit lived, that his true name
is L, A. Wilson.
Wilson cannot be brought to
trial here until the termination of
his prison sentence in Missouri, but
it will afford officers and others
some relief that he is behind closed
walls and that, barring the chances
of death and escape lie will yet be
brought to trial for his crime in
this county.

To turn our hogs in on short,
And fatten them with ease.
Why not more our attention turn
Upon our sowS and pigs,
And by experience a lesson learn
That the farmers greatly need?
Cane is good for molasses, too;
1t beats this brousht.on syrup
That's only good for substitute,
And takes money from the purse.
Farmers must turn a new leaf,
The present rule won't do.
We must raise some calves for beef
And some big fat hogs, too,

Abont our debts this year.

And have nothing at all to fear.
