CONFLICT over
FOSSIL REMAINS
Unusual Case Tried Over Bones
Of Mastodon in Tennessee
Court.
BOYS MAKE THE DISCOVERY
Courts Are Asked to Decide Whether
the Remains Belong to DIscov-
erer or the Owner
Of the Farm.


Halls, Tenn.-An unusual case has
just been tried over the bones Of q
mastodon by the Lauderdale county
circuit court at Ripley. Tenn. A few
weeks ago two little boys, David Oar
nell and Cherrell Boone, were setting
traps on the farm of N. d. Salisbury.
five miles northwest of here. One
Of the boys hurt his foot on what
they thought to be the end of large
horn Their curiosity was aroused
by the unusual size Of the object. and
the Boone boy went for his father
to assist them in digging it out.
Tusk Weighs 90 Pounds.
The father, Ellis Boone, came with
implements and dug out q tusk
weighing SO pounds and feet
8 inches long. Another tusk was
found. but was broken in prying it
out Of the ground. A jawbone with
four teeth was unearthed. The teeth.
when removed from the bone. weighed
five and a fourth pounds each and
were in perfect condition. Several
other bones were found.
There was also found the jawbone
of some other animal, with the teeth
In 1t. The back teeth of this animal
are an inch long and worn, denoting
that 1t was very aged when 1t died.
Salisbury contended that as the
bones were found on his farm they
were his. He had them replevined
from Boone. Boone contended that
by right Of discovery they should be
his.
Goes to Supreme Court.
The hearing was before Esquires
Kinley and Dunavant. One thousand
people were present. A decision was
rendered In favor of Salisbury. Boone
then appealed to the circuit court and
that court decided in Boone's favor.
Now Salisbury appeals to the supreme
court Of the state and that high body
will pass on the case
Local authDrities are of the opinion
that there ia no law, ancient or mod
ern, to Just fit the case, and that the
final decision will govern all such
cases in the future. Salisbury was
represented in the trial by T. c. Cor
don of Dyersburg and w. C. Patten
Of Halls. Boone was represented BY
w. N. Beasley of Halls.
The mastodon itself is said to have
been the only party within a con-
siderable distance who didn't mani
fest some interest in the case.

His bit ter opposition to the monopoly ot of transportation by the New Hayer was quite enough to make him per soma non grata with every railroad interest in America. to say nothing O the other corporations, to whom suct action as opposing the vested interests is the rankest kind of heresy anc hardly to be condoned under any cir eumstances.
 The corporations have little use for q man who will not accept the view that all things should be subordinatet to the interests of those who. throug' wealth and powerful influence, contro the mainsprings of industry and they have less use for the one who will oppose his knowledge and strength tc the grasping greed of those who are daily grinding the life blood out of the toilin6 masses of humanity. Bran deis has done all of those things, dur Ing his long and useful life and has even gone so far as to voluntarily propose methods whereby the trusts could be controlled. In addition to ths unholy les majestic, he has dls- played signs of 8 tendency to social. istic thought which alone was bound to earn him the condemnation of the classes who control the strings of com mence and industry. Brandies has not been what may be termed an active come so close to 1t in his efforts to be Just to both sides. where capital and labor were in opposition. that he has long ago been marked as a natural opponent of those who seek the ex' ploltation of others for their own sell fish ends.
 Such a one could not be acceptable 10 the money overlords or the captains of industry even though he possessed the wisdom of a Solomon. unless he was willing to lend It to their interests and as the whole tendency of such of Brandeis' acts as have come to public notice have been toward granting an equal justice to all, It Is not to be wondered at that he Is viewed With doubting and distrust. The who'll trouble with him, in the view of the interests. Is that he Is too much given to looking at both sides of the case and to making his decisions In accord enos with the facts and not with the
