DANGERS OF DRAFT

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is Neu.
ralgia, Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles or
sometimes an attack of Rheumatism.
In such cases apply Sloan's Liniment
1t stimulates circulation to the sore
and painful part. The blood flows
freely and in short time the stiffness
and pain leaves. Those suffering from
Neuralgia or Neuralgia Headache will
find one or two applications of Sloan's
Liniment will give grateful relief The
agonizing pain gives way to tingling
sensation of comfort and warmth and
quiet rest and sleep is possible. Good
for Neuritis too. Price Csc. at your

doubt about the right of the county to
employ the Hight teams under lease
to Gillian he would never have agreed
to any such thing.
Hill Roane, testifying for the prose
cutor, said that he knew of no scarcity
If teams: that he did not ask for a
;ob because he did not think there
was any use.
The hearing was resumed at 1
o'clock.
The investigation of the record or
Clay Hight, one Of the county road
commissioners, who are being probed
by R. A. Wilkes, for alleged misap-
preparation of money out Of the coun-
ty funds, again resumed its course at
10 o'clock Saturday morning. Mr..
Hight was placed on the stand to con-
tinue his testimony from Friday after
noon. Mr.. Hight was asked by his
attorney, J. H. Dining, to again state
to the committee, the response he had
given Mr.. Jackson Friday afternoon,
in regard to Hicks Richardson,
then superintendent of the county
work house, having the right to employ
teams to work the road. Mr.. Hight
stated that Mr.. Richardson had the
right to employ teams if he was un-
able to secure enough from those who
had subscribed to the road. In an
swer to a question by Mr.. Dining, If
the work was not practically suspend
ed when this, (Mr. Hights) teams
were taken off Of the road, Mr.. Hight
stated that the work was paralyzed.
In cross-examining Mr. Hight, Attor-
ney PEBBLES for Mr.. Wilkes, asked If
any protests made in regard to taking
his teams off of the road, and If so,
were they entered upon the minutes
of any of the meetings. Mr.. Hight
stated that protests were made, but
he didn't think they were entered
upon the minutes. Mr.. Dining made
an exception to this question, giving
as his reason, that the law did not re-
quire protests offered by any outsid-
ers to be entered in the minutes of
the meetings of the commissioners.
Time was then allowed for Mr.. Hight
to go through the minutes of the meet
ings at or about the time that his
teams were taken off of the road On
doing so Mr.. Hight failed to find the
protests entered,
Hicks Richardson was the next wit
ness to testify in behalf Of the defen-
don't. When asked by Mr.. Dining,
if he had complained to the road COM
missioner in regard to the scarcity
of teams, he stated that he could not
obtain enough to successfully to run
the crusher. In answer to John Brown,
one of the committeeman, Mr. Rich
ardson stated that he felt it his duty
to work the teams of the men who had
subscribed to the road and wished to
pay their subscription in this manner
before employing other teams.

Commissioner.
Saturdays Daily.)

Road Commissioner Clay E. Hight,
answering the Wilkes charges, had his
inning before the joint Investigation
committee this morning. 1t was a
good inning, too. Hicks Richardson, for
mer superintendent of the county work
house and now merchant at Cul-
Ieoka. and member of the county DEM
ocratic committee from the Fifth Dis
trict. corroborated Mr.. Nights testi-
mony as to the difficulty of obtaining
teams. He explained how necessary
in order to run the rock crusher 1t
was to have teams.
Mr., Richardson stated that he asked
several men for teams and was re-
fused. He told how the time was kept.
He said Mr.. Hight told him that Gil
Ham, who has leased his teams, would
furnish them if necessary.
Henry H. Hill. of Cross Bridges, for
mer member of the county road board,
was witness and his statement clears

fined how the special highway fund
was expended and said that often the
district commissioners were employed
as contractors and when acting as
such they were the agents of the coun-
Nv road board, instructed to spend a
certain sum of money upon certain
highway and that in such instances
they acted as agents of the county
commissioners and not as district COM
missioners. This explanation shows
that there was no inconsistency or IT.
regularity in Mr.. Pinkston's course as
contractor in the Fourth district.
Mr.. Hill said that in finding men for
working out the special highway fund
the board tried to get those who were
interested in roads and that generally
they worked without compensation; if
they were paid any it was $3.50 per
day. Most of the district commission
ers working as contractors were suf-
ficiently interested in the roads to
work for nothing.
Mr. Hill corroborated the testimony
of Mr.. Hughes and Mr. Hight as to
the employment of the Gillian or
Hight teams. He said that under the
contract between Gillian and Hight
there was no law against the employ
ment of the Hight teams; that Mr..
Pinkston was appointed contractor
without any instructions from him as
10 whose teams he should employ and
whose teams he should not employ.
The prosecution seemed to think 1t
had gained point in the statement
Pinkston, who employed Hight or Gil
liam teams was working as agent for
the road board and not as the dis
-trict commissioner.
Mr. Hill said that the constant COM
