Other Items Of Interest From
The Court House Records

Addison l.. Rawlings, former local
piano dealer, arrested three weeks
ago on charges Of forgery and altering
notes by changing dates, appeared for
hearing Tuesday afternoon, before
Mayor Higbee, says the Newark Ad.
vocate. BY his attorney, w. D. Fulton,
he waived the reading of the affidav-
its, and waived the preliminary hear
ing. He was held to the common
pleas court under bond in the sum of
$1,000 in each of the six cases on
which he was arraigned. The total
bond of $4,000 was furnished, Messrs.
George w. and Williame Lane, Mrs
Cora B. Rawlings and William M.
Koons of Mt Vernon signing the bond
as surety.
The six affidavits on which Raw.
lings was arraigned were signed by
Cincinnati men, five being signed by
John S. Thornton and one by H. L..
Bartlett
Prosecuting Attorney Joseph w.
Horner and Attorney j. Howard Jones
appeared for the state.
w. d. Fulton, attorney for A. L..
Rawlings, made the following state
ment after the hearing:
"The people who filed the six aft.
davits against Mr.. Rawlings are rep
resenting the Cincinnati Discount Co.
Mr. Rawlings has been dealing with
this company for a number of years
and the figures since January, 1907,
show that Mr.. Rawlings has paid to
this company $130,SO2.97; that about
$4,000 of this is for interest and dis
counts. So that it can be seen that if
the golden rule was applied Mr.. Raw
lings does not owe these people one
cent and they are claiming that he
owes about $4,000.
"The figures that I am giving are
only about one-half the dealings with
this concern at that. l have gone ov-
er Mr.. Rawlings book accounts and
find that nearly all the companies
that he has dealt with have made
large amounts of moneys off of Mr..
Rawlings. This is not true, however,
of Messrs. Swisher, or d. M. Jones,
and others of Newark, they have not
been paid back, but when all facts
come out in this matter am sure it
will show that Mr.. Rawlings did not
profit anything"

Bismarck, N. d. Feb, 16.-The sem

mend for passage S. B. No. 1So, which
provides that the salary of county OFF,
GERS shall be placed upon a population
basis. This is one of the bills intro-

county salaries are based upon

Washington, Feb. 16.-The presi-
dents fight for his ship bill was

democratic leaders are sure of hold
ing their large majority firm. They
will have the new measure ready for
the senate before the end of .oday's
session.
In the meantime. the senate marked

The president made no intimation
regarding an extra session. He said
he favored a reasonable general clo-
ture rue in the senate to stop obstruc-
tive tactics, but not to cut off fair de-
bate.
After a preliminary round of debate
in which the republicans hurled
charges of ''gag-rule" and the demo-
Gratis defended the measure, a special
rule limiting debate to six hours was
adopted 186 to 139. The house then
settled down to speech making with
