way after August 1st, as shall be
on my way back to S. Oak. We have
another dry year out here and it is
the worat ever heard of. We did
not get any rain this year and spring
wheat did not come up. It is so hot
for about three weeks that everything
is burnt down. The temperature for
the past week is from 1O5 to 118 and
one day it shot up TO 121. You can
imagine what the result may be. You
can buy horses By the hundreds at
$40 a head; cattle and sheep are
shipped cut by the trainloads every
day. There is no hay nor feed and
the little there is costs $75 ton.

Washington Special. THE Federal
suffrage amendment has been defeated
in both houses of the Georgia assem-
bly, following a protracted contest.
The final vote stood 80 against suff-
rage and 9 for the constitutional a.
mendment. Much of the opposition to
ratification is laid to attempted inter-
ference in the assembly on the part
of President Wilson who sent a tel
egram urging ratification of the a.
mendment for the sake of "expedi-
ency" and also sent Senator William
j. Harris of Georgia to Atlanta to
lobby for ratification. President Will
sons course angered the Legislators
and he was denounced on the floor as
meddler - So bitterly have leg
islators resented the President ;.
course that it is said in the Capitol
iobbies that he would have difficulty
in carrying Georgia if he should
again he a candidate.

The democrats have been blindly
following President Wilson and he
has lead them bodily into the socialis-
tic camp. In South Dakota the re-
publicans have followed their political
leaders. and they have landed in the
same camp. The candidats who ex-
poets to get the support of non-social-
istic voters will therefore have to re-
ly upon something more than party
affiliation. He must make it plain
just what kind of a republican or
democrat he is.

FIRE MARSHAL AIDS
IN PROSECUTION Of
ARSON DEFENDANT
STATE DEPARTMENT ACTIVE III
PRESSING CHARGES AGAINST
AssYRtAN HELD FOR DESTRUC-
TlON or LARGE DEER PARK
BARN.

State Fire Marshall John G. Gam
ber's office, at Springfield, IS actively
represented in Ottawa at the trial of
Charles Hasson, an Assyrian, for
burning the barn in Deer PARK town
snip. The trial of Hasson opened this
mcrlinE in the Circuit Court with H..
NJ. Kelly representing the ire mar
shai and assisting states Attorney
George ) Ntiey in the prosecution,
L. G.. Murtrie, OF Lacon, deputy fire
Marshal, is in Ottawa attending the
.rial after gathering much evidence
to be used against liasson.
The fire for which Hasson is oa
trial occurred November }, OF last
year, at the farm of James Mizysak,
one and ole-haf miles southeast Of
Oglesby. Shortly after the cOntiaga-
ton, which is said to have destroyed
large quantity OF grains, hay, farm
implements, as we'll as fye' horses
and forty or fifty hogs, HassoH dis
appeared, but in January. of this year
ed under arrest.
Aid OF the State Fire Marshal was
enlisted in the suit against the de-
fendaat, and Deputy McMurtrie was
sent to Id Sale county to gather evi.
dence. by State Fire Marshal John
G Gambler, of Ottawa. The case has
been in pendency all this time, but
when it was called for trial before
Judge Davis the selection of a jury
was begun.
After a short time the twelve men
who will pass upon Hasson's guilt or
innocence, were selected as follows:
Thomas Grimes, Streator; A. L.
Brainard, Ottawa Lawrence Gun
Ottawa; NJ. S. Driscoll, La
Sale; Henry Zurich. Ottawa; James
Reed Streator; A J. Kelly, Meridian;
j. O. Stewart, Eagle; William Shu!er
Ottawa; John Casserly, ". j. kellen-
bach and Karl Kastenbein, all of Lai
Sale
The state contends that HassOn set
fire to the barl because his atten-
tions to one of Mizysaks daughters
were spurned by the girl When the
young woman refused to accept his
advances, it is alleged he became IN
censed and took the firebrald method
of squaring his grunge against her
father
The defense denies any knowledge
of the crime, limiting that if there was
aly arson in connection with the de
struction of the barn insurance poll
cies may have had something to DO
with it
The case gives promise of being
bitterly fought from start to finish.
