Report to Senate on Weeks Reso1u-
tion-owen Proposition to Super
wise Expenditures Substituted.

Carrying out the understanding en-
tered into when the Senate amendment
providing for congressional committee
on expenditures for the war was strick-
en- from the food control bill in con-
ference, the Senate rules committee yes
terday acted upon the original Weeks
resolution providing for committee on
the conduct Of the war.
The committee, after first substitut-
ing the Owen resolution providing for
a committee on expenditures, instead of
on the conduct of the war;" reported
the Weeks resolution adversely to the
Senate. This has the effect Of placing
the resolution on the calendar. 1t is
doubtful, however. that 1t will ever be
considered in the Senate, and If it
should be taken up. 1t is likely to be
defeated.
The vote in the committee was not

VOLUNTARY BANKRUPTCY
-a
John M. Dill Gives up Light and
Water Plant

John NJ. Dill, superintendent of
the local water and light plant,
and who also operated the Hunt
ingdon ice plant, filed a voluntary
petition in bankruptcy with the
clerk of the federal court in Mem
phis last Tuesday. The petitioner
was represented by Attorney John
T. Peeler, who went to Memphis
early Tuesday morning. The LA
bilities were listed at 81, 830.96
and his assets were given at 3d.
925. In the assets are life insur-
ance policies, we understand. for
about $4,000, made payable to his
wife. The larger portion Of his
liabilities is going to James H.
Mccall for use of the ice plant.
Mr.. Dill resigned as superinten-
dent of the water and light plant
Monday night and also turned the
ice plant back to Mr.. Mccall at
the same time. The mayor and
aldermen appointed E. M. Nor
mon, a member Of the board, to
look after the city's interest at the
water and light plant, until per-
manent arrangements can be made.
The ice plant, at this writing, is
shut down and the town is without
ice. We are not informed as to
how long this condition will last,
we hope not long.
Mr.. Dill, during the long years
he has had charge Of the plants,
has given the town fine service.
The increased high cost of mater
ial and labor and other conditions
have operated against him and he
became so heavily involved that he
did not think it best to fight
against the odds longer. His
friends sympathize with him in
his misfortune and hope to see him
on his feet again.

Il. ii. DOWDY,
County President
New Election Officer

Hon. John T. PeeIer has been
appointed election commissioner
for Carroll county to fill the va
cancy in the local board, caused
by the resignation of w. E. Haley.
The appointment was made Thurs
day of last week by the state cleo
ton board. We understand the
appointment of Mr.. Peeler was
made at the suggestion of Cover
nor Tom Rye. The state board
held a meeting last week and filled
what vacancies had occurred in the
various boards of the state.

REPUBLICAN PRIMARY
Last Monday a Lively Day With
the Candidates

The republican candidates had a
lively day Of it last Monday. They
were all here and so were their
friends. The influential citizen"
was also here and ready and will
ling to tell them all about how
the election could be won.
Early in the morning the wise
ones knew exactly the lay of the
land, but things got all balled up
during the day and the more they
studied the situation the less they
knew where they were at.
1t was undertaken to eliminate
a few of the candidates. This
brought on some lively talk. No
candidate felt he was exactly the
one to be eliminated. There we're
some of their friends thoughtless
enough to want to know just who
had the right to do the eliminat-
ing, any way. They felt that their
candidate had as much right to
test his strength before the people
in the primary as the other fell
lows candidate, and they really
thought the primary was called
for that purpose.
When the days work was fin
ished, however, there were three
candidates less in the field than
there were that morning. M. L.
Robinson and Jasper Tate, candi-
dates for sheriff, and Will Cox,
candidate for county court clerk,
had withdrawn. 1t was thought
for a while that others would quit,
but they did not.
There is some dissatisfaction
among the faithful about the eff
forts to combine and prejudice the
interest OF one candidate to help
