Samuel Allen, farmer of Hazelton
township, Monday began suit for $780,
900 against Joseph Mccartney, whose
farm he works on shares. He claims
injuries in an assault by Mccartney.

Mccartney caused trouble at the farm
and that just as Allen went to go
into the corn crib, Mccartney struck
him over the shoulder with a short
plank, dislocating the shoulder. When
Allen turned and threw up one hand
he claims, Mccartney struck him
again, breaking two fingers.
Allen is middle aged man and not
married. He is represented by At

Trouble Now On Throughout
the Different Mining Fields

what appeared to them as a most ex-
ceptional and perfectly safe enterprise.
The Times management is exceeding
ly sorrp that such is the case. Such
condition has caused US to investigatc
into the true condition in that field
than we otherwise would have done,
Such investigation has convinced us
that the high royalty in that field
is entirely reponsible for at least TO-
900 miners being out Of employment
there, making it impossible for the
mines to run.
Then the thought very naturally oc-
ours: Are not such conditions suf.
ficiently grave to cause remedial leg
islation to be set in action at once by
State-even by the Government, il
need be. The existing conditions ir
that wonderfully rich mineral gelt
are a positive menace to the public
good There is absolutely TO chance
for progress. It's continuance will be
the means of breeding red flags
throughout the country. Something
should be done to at least reduce very
materially, that useless royalty--tht
drone which absorbs all the profits
that should go to those who risk their
money in developing the wealth of the
country. The present conditions il
that field are not right, and It's con.
tinuance is likely to result in irrep,
arabic damage, not only to that coun.
try, but the entire nation. p

principal industry there is cotton
growing, and practically all the nativ-

there is plenty of diversionfrom irk-
some labor. Batesville is on White

pretty town.

w. L. Hensley
Succeeds Oliver

The name of Congressman Walter
l.. Hensley was sent to the United
Sites Senate Saturday for confirnia-
tion as United States district attorn-
ey, Eastern District of Missouri, with
headquarters in st. Louis, to succeed
Arthur L. Oliver of Charlottesville.
Congressman Hensley was not
candidate to succeed himself last fall
and at that time stated he would re-
turn to his law practice when his
term was ended. He represented
his district in Congress for eight sue
cessive years.
Early last week Congressman Hen
sley was called Washington, presum-
ably to confer with A. Mitchell Pal
mer, recently appointed Attorney
General in President Wilson's Cab
met, relative to this appointment.
Palmer formerly served in Congress
| from Pennsylvania, during which time
he and Congressman Hensley became
J close friends, and it is altogether lik-
| ely that it was largely owing to such
friendship that Congressman Hensley
was induced to accept such appoint
plent, even though he had already
DeBun making arrangements W OpcH
ur a law Office in this city at once.
! The appointment of Walter l.. Hen
sley to this position will be heartily
Eapproved by his many friends through
out this Congressional District, who
are convinced that such appointment
could not have been improved upon.
The duties of the office of U. S. Dis
trict Attorney will perhaps necsssitatc
the removal of Mr.. Hensley and fam
/ lily to ST. Louis, or a suburb of that
city, which will be deeply regretted by
many Pennington friends. Mr.. Hen
sley will enter upon his new work at
once.
;. Mr.. Hensley was Prosecuting At
torney for st. Francois County for
two terms, retiring to take up the gem
eral practice of law in 1902. In 1910
he was elected to Congress from the
Thirteenth District and was re-elect-
ed three successive terms. During the
entire eight years he has been IN Con-
gress he was member of the Naval
Affairs Committee Of the House.

PROGRESS BEING MADE
IN THE BIG TAX SUIT
But 1t Appears That Knots Are Being
Tied That Will Retard Unraveling
of Originally Simple Question

The latest developments in the big
tax suit of st. Francois county against
the holdings Of the several large min
ing companies in this county, in which
something over 100000 is involved,
appears at this time to be of more
entangling, than clarifying, nature.
The case was up for hearing in the U.
is. District Court in st. Louis and
last Monday had been set as The time
for fixing date for hearing Of the
cause.
The retiring Collector, ]. ]. Croke,
appeared in Judge Dyer's court there
Monday, in company with one of his
attorneys, J. P. Cayce, and admitted
Judgment for the full amount of the
taxes, on agreement with the mine
owners pay $3O00,0O0 of the s400,'
900 and more that he had assessed
| against them. In this connection
Judge Dyer also allowed to Mr.
Croke's attorneys, J. P. Cayce and B
H. Marbury, the snug fee of $4,000
each for their very brief work ant
time spent in this cause.

other side to this matter that will have

Woodmcn, Colo, where he had spent
tile past five months in the Wocdman
Sanitariunl. Judging from his APP
pearance the treatment and climate
there was just what he most '.reded,
ais he Is looking Eale and hearty, hay-
ing gained about twenty-five pounds,

hc has ever been a sufferer from the
tuberculosis germ. However, he has

ers, who were perhaps assisted in
such effort by the attorneys for the
former County Collector, who were
supposed to be looking after the best
interests of the county.
The St. Francois County Court is
composed of gentlemen who are will
ing, ready and capable of looking af-
ter the welfare of the county. which
they are going to do on any and ey-
cry occasion. They are also reason
able men, who are always as willing
and ready to correct an error, when
an error can be shown to exist, pro-
viding the aggrieved party, or parties,
appear before them with clean hands
and ask that such error be corrected.
But they cannot be bluffed or cajoled
into any laxity in the full performance
Of their duty.
Therefore, the County Court Jud-
ges are standing on their right and
duty to make settlement Of these tax
accounts, and claim that the former
Collector clearly exceeded his author
ity in admitting judgment on the pay
rnent by the mine owners of $500, ,00C
for their whole 1918 taxes. On this
ground they propose to stand firm
and the law plainly upholds them il
such position. If any compromise is
made in the taxes that are assessed
against the mine owners, then th'
course, as above indicated will hay'
to be pursued by the mining compan
les, or their attorneys.

Bring Forth
the Candidates

4 h. a y r. u
Tho date for the annual city and
school elections is drawing near, but
there are few candidates out for hte
different offices to be filled in April
LIST who are known to be actual candi
dates. 1t appears to The Times that
the time has arrived for the serious
discussion of this mater by the citi-
zens, as the selection of the right kind
CT officers for the various POSITIONS
to be filled is Of great Importance
| for the future good and the best inter-
csts of this community. IA
For instance, the result of the city
election is of grave Importance to
| Harrington. Business of utmost inn
portance is to be looked after, and il
| II is not attended to in the proper man
ner, then the consequent loss must be
sustained by the netire citizenship OF
this city. What Pennington should
look after and provide for at the ap-
preaching election is to select men
for the different Offices to be filed who
are wholly competent to look after
the duties that will devolve upon them
in a thoroughly businesslike manner.
A Mayor, Marshal and three Alder
men are to be selected, and they should
be men who are in every way qualified
to look after their respective duties.
The Times has heard few mentioned
for these various places, but informant
ton is yet lacking as to whether any
of them are seriously considering en-
tering the race for which they have
been mentioned.
II There are numper Oh gooo men
m TINS city 10 MI sech places IN man
ner uhat VIII CONFER circuit ooth oi
themselves and the city, and now is
the time to induce such men TO make
the race for these various oihces. IL
is not wise thing, however, to con-
csript men for such places. Even
though they may not seem to care TO
run, if good men can be persuaded TO
give the time necessary for the prop
or performance Of such public duties,
then such men should be put. up and
elected by their friends. 1t is ne,
cessary public service that no good
| citizen should refuse, even though they
may feel that they cannot spare :, the
time from their private affairs. That
is the kind Of men who are needed fol
such work, If the best results are tc
ensue. :,
| The Times is informed that b. p
Marbury has been favorably mention
II ed for Mayor, and that several goot
citizens have been trying to brlag pres

There is no one who Will question Mr
