When a man, or set of men try tC
discredit an official for performing
the plain duty for which he was Sc.
lected, and then, in the face of facts
sustained by court records showing
| that this man whom they would dis
credit was not in office and in no
wise connected with the proceedings
while in court. solely because the
would-be detractors think the Off
Gals acts might be unpopular with a
certain class of people, is resorting
to a very low grade of politics. A man
who would condemn fellow for do
ing his duty, even in a case like the
one where certain Democrats charge
Ed Morrow acted as Attorney for the
United States (but bear in mind he
was not in office at the time) would
go to bunch of the vilest and most
guilty "Klu-Klux". bank robbers or
ny other criminals, with low condem-
nation upon his lips and in his breath.
for the Attorney who performed his
plain duty and honestly represented
the state in a trial of their case. Or
the same fellow would. if it suited his
purpose better, go to the other side
and try to poison the mind of the
''antis" against the honest attorney
for performing his duty in a defense
of the accused. 1t looks like drown
ing men, straws etc.

TO ALL WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN

Realizing that there exists among
eX-soldiers an anti-ofticcr sentiment
we, the undersigned cx~mem bers o;
Company II, Third Kentucky Infan.
try, believe we owe IL to Roy Speck
who is the nominee of one of the par.
ties for Clerk of the Court of Appeals
to let the public know that he was not
one of the officers responsible for the
creation of such sentiment. Mr..
Speck served with us from the be-
ginning of the war until the outfit
was dissolved and scattered to the
four corners of the earth and to show
how he stood with us it is sufficient
to say that every mar. in the outfit
was anxious to go with him in his
new outfit.
Having for long tire served as an
enlisted man he knew how to be an
officer and did not over estimate the
Importance of a commission or have
any false or foolish ideas about the
relations between commissioned and
the enlisted personnel. He continued
to wear the same old hat that he had
worn as an enlisted man. He under
stood and recognized the enlisted
mans view and gave fair and just
consideration to any problem or con-
tention that presented itself and was
both the friend of the enlisted man
and the enlisted mans friend.
This is not a partisan appeal for
votes, but comes from a desire to do
the right thing BY Mr.. Speck, and
we don't think we would be doing
the right thing by him if we didn't
let those who do not already know it,
know that he is both a gentleman and
soldier and thoroughly worthy of
the trust and confidence of any man.
We vouch for him.
Many of our comrades have not
returned, some are not to return, and
many of them live out over the State
and in other States and could not be !
reached but the undersigned include |
all of the boys who live around Hart
ford and we are sure that we voice !
the sentiment of all.

HAS INTERESTING NEW
 POINTS ON O|L FIELD

Garnett Holmes, of the firm of Holmes and Wooten, has just returned from spending six weeks in the Texas oil fields. His experiences and conclu- sions are intensely interesting to the seeker after oil information, and that means a majority.
 Tt is a mistake too many people are making to buy into oil on the basis of geography instead of geology" said MT. Holmes. Tt is always a mistake to invest in things you know nothing about But there has been a lot of money made there by people who went down and found out and acted upon
 what they were able to learn"
 Another interesting point that is not generally understood here was brought out by MT. Holmes, and that is the ef feet upon adjacent holdings, under the law, of the bringing in of an oil well. He pointed out that the first well on any property is generally drilled in the corner on the theory that it will drain three -fourthS of the oil it produces from under the neghboring holdings. If the ! hole comes in as a producing well the
 law compels the holders of leases on l adjoining property to drill at once, or | lose their leases to the royalty holder. 1 No matter if they have well down part way in some other part of their | holdings and lack the money to drill another, they must drill the others, ] finding the money somewhere to do so, or lose their leases. This is for the protection of the land owner. but re- suits in the financial embarrassment of
 many companies.

TRAVELLING MANI |S
 DETAINED BY POLICE

Sam Gabbitt, travelling man and has been temporarily restrained from pursuing his profession and his fan tasies by the strong arm of the law. Gabbitt ran into an unexpected snag in his travels yesterday in the person of Al Williams, Phoenix police officer. Gabbitt is a colored man.
 Gabbitt is a travelling man only in solar as it applies to one who travels here. there; everywhere. He is a for tune hunter in that he is seeking great wealth. He is a rainbow chaser by reason of his endeavor to find the religion that's different"
 To be more explicit, Gabbitt is a knight of the road. He admitted as much following his arrest yesterday, but the phrase knight of the road is very distasteful to the negro. He much prefers to be called "traveling man. The latter expression is far more softening to the ear and much less a shock to the nervous system. Prof. Gabbitt is travelling for two purposes The first of these is in | aim, and notwithstanding his Al years, | the professor is confident of the ultI- mate success of his venture. He knows not where his wealth is to come from and admitted that even if he did, hv wouldn't tell.
 "Fse just paddlin' along. keepin these here ole black eyes of mine open, I is" Prof. Gabbitt stated to Police Captain Lee Sutherland. More than that, he sayeth not.
 The negro is very religious and is well educated in that line, and is laboring under the belief that some where is to be found the perfect re- ligion." He speaks remarkably gooC English at times, but at others drops into the southern darky dialect. Professor Gabbitt came to Phoeni1 from Prescott and admitted at police headquarters that he had overlooked the formality of handing the Santa F, railroad "a piece of change" for tn, courtesy of transporting him down th' long grade. In fact, Prof. Gabbir doesn't believe in any railroad stock' or bonds, he said, and therefore ha! continuously and effectively omitte, that customary investment
 Gabbitt will be investigated as to hi sanity.

FALSE ADVERTISING
 LAW IN EFFECT ID
 PROTECT INVESTORS


 The advertising of promoters of various companies is likely to undergo a revision in the direction of mildness and explicit truthfulness right soon, for the new false advertising law is in effect and the corporation commis- sion will "get them if they don't watch out"
 Part of the new law reads as fol- lows:
 No company, broker. or agent, or any other person, shall issue, circu late or publish any advertisement, pamphlet, prospectus, or circular con- corning any security sold or offered for sale by it, unless the name of the company. broker, agent, or person is suing, circulating or publishing the same shall be subscribed thereto, and a true copy thereof shall have been first filed in the office of the Corpora tion Commission, or deposited in a United States postoffice, properly en- closed in a sealed envelope, addressed l to the Commission at Phoenix, Ari- 1 zona, with the postage duly prepaid 1 thereon; nor shall any company broker, or agent or any other person, issue, circulate, or publish any such duNtI IlStHltHl ,pdulplllelp prospectus or circular after notice in writing given to it by the corporation con- mission, that in it's opinion, the same contains any statement that is false ol misleading or otherwise likely to de- ceive a reader thereof"
 That is not all The commission now has a fund which it is using !, investigate the way investment com. panies spend their stockholders mon. ey, and take measures to protest these same innocent investors. Of course this applies only to companies tha have permits to sell stock in the state The new fund is derived from the cor lections under the following new lav provisions:
 The commission shall charge an' collect the following fees:
 '1. For filing any application for permit to issue securities, ten dollars plus
 "One-twentieth of one per cent o the value of the securities sought to b issued up to and including s50,000;
 "One twenty fifth of one per cent o such amount in excess of $50,000 an not exceeding $100.00O;
 One-fiftieth of one per cent of sue amount in excess of s100,000 and nc | exceeding s500,000 and } One -hundrdeth of one per cer of such amount in excess of $50O,00

 The offer has been communicated to the members of the peace congress in Paris, who have discussed it's provis- ions, including reservations made by the Germans against fixing their sig natures to the document, while it con tains clauses acknowledging respon- sibility of the German people for the war and demanding the trial of former emperor William
 All the requests of the Germans for further allocations have been definitely rejected by the allies and Germany now must give her acquiescence to the treaty as it stands, before the expira . tion of the time limit Monday after noon, on pain of having the allies fur ther invade her territory.

 FLANDERS

The spring that comes to Flanders
 Goes by on silent feet, Lest they should wake, remembering How once the spring was sweet. And streams that flow in Flanders
 Past poppy-field and hill Are silver streams and shining,
 But thoughtful streams and still. The wind that blows in Flanders
 Across the listening air, Is gentle with the grasses
 That bend above them there And rain that falls in Flanders
 Is tender as a prayer. David Morton. in Good Housekeeping.
