sTuNG ON LAND DEAL.
Iowa Farmer Stands to Lose $4,000 on
Farm Trade.


Des Moines.. Feb. 3.-Stay in Iowa is
going to be the motto Of j. 0. Taven-
ner henceforth.
He filed a petition in the district
court late yesterday afternoon, asking
the return of a good Iowa farm, which
he traded last spring for several
tracts of land in Wisconsin.
If the Iowa soil is not returned to
him he will be loser by about $10,-
600. he says.
Tavenner, in the story he tells thru
the petition, traded his Iowa farm for
the Wisconsin tracts thru the, Skid
more Land Company and Robert l.
Thompson. The Wisconsin land was
m!srepresented.j he Claims or he would
have never made the bargain. r
The land is stony and has a sprink-
ling of stumps, the petition alleges.
whereas Tavenner says he was told
there was only an occasional ledge OF
rock which would interfere in no, way
with farming.
.e asks TO have the deal set aside
on the grounds that the contract was
given under false pretenses.

Another Jacksonville
Bank Fails to Open


JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 1.-THE
First Germania State bank, one of the
smallest banks of Jacksonville, did not
open its doors today
CLOSED by order of the board of di-
rectors," was all that appeared on d
notice which was posted on the door
of the bank early this morning.
The last statement of the condition of
the bank, made to the state comptroller
on December so, 1916, showed that it
carried deposits amounting to s201,
70S.02. Its total resources were given
as s2SO,57S.o4.
In anticipation of run today the Live
Oak Citizens State bank did not open
this morning. The comptroller was ad-
vised last night of the decision of direc-
tors and he has taken charge. The
general opposition was that the Live
Oak Citizens bank was in a way con-
nected with the Heard National bank
of Jacksonville. Efforts are being made
by the stockholders to refinance and re-
open the bank tomorrow morning.

TOT today, proceeded to inspect the con-
tents. The odors given oil were Napor-
ISL and sickening, but as mas been the
case heretofore, the congressional COM
mittee got nowhere. They have simply

WAS more startling, giving the chairman

sentative Robert l.. Henry, of Texas.

himself in monOpoliZIng the headlines of

But as he continued before the COM
miItee this morning and as the town

last night and ii was generally conceded
that the. very holiness Of Lawson's
maneuver. aside from any consideration
OF Henry's denials. had helped Lawson
wonderfully around the sharp corner
of prospective congressional imprison-
ment.
That is at least one material accom-
pliShment to LaWson's credit. He has by
dragging out a big scandal supported
only by the cheapest sort of hearsay.
kept himself out of custody.
There is "A singular analogy between
the Lawson performances of this week
and the performance of Representative
Wood last week. Mr.. Wood had infor-
nation about leak; he wanted TO tell 1t
in private he was forced to tell ii in
public and Immediately there is sensa-
tion. But il turns out that Mr.. Wood
has no proof. not any more than is TO be
found among the scandalmongers.
Comes then Mr.. Lawson, with great,
great deal more of the theatrical about
him. He sees the stage and he plays
for time and he gets the eyes of the en-
tire country concentrated on him.
