Stacy Gives Reasons

Reasons for the action were out
lined in the dismissal as follows:
First. The defendant is a public
officer holding a position of the very
greatest Importance to the people of
this county,
Second. The charges against the
defendant are of grave character
involving not only the question of
an overt violation of the criminal
code but also the question of the
moral fitness of the defendant to con-
tinue in. The office which he now
holds
Third. Since this action was filed
the citizens of this county have ex-
arcised their constitutional right to
petition for the calling Of grand
jury and the district court in pur-
suance Of said petition has ordered
a grand jury to convene on the 10Th
day of next month
Therefore, in consideration of the
extreme seriousness of the matters
involved both to the accused and
the public, | deem it my duty in
furtherance of justice, to lay all the
facts before the grand jury in order
that the accused may be punished or
vindicated in accordance with The
deliberate and unprecedented Judg.
ment of competent and impartial
tribunal
The case against Judge Davenport
was first filed in Justice T. p,
Moore's court A change of venue
was asked by the defendant, which
was granted, and the case was book
ed for trial in Justice Bunnells
court on September 23rd.

President Continues

Aboard the Presidents Train.
Sept 20-President Wilson went to
Los Angeles today to make possibly
two speeches for the ratification of
the peace treaty as 1t stands and to
take a week end rest,
Only one speech is scheduled to-
day 1t being at the Shrners' audi.

that the president will speak at
dinner that is being rendered him by

president sail, however, will be un-
answered for tho fighting spirit Of
tile colonel is dormant forever.
The president read an excerpt from
an article by Colonel Roosevelt which
appeared in the New York Times in
October, 1914. The substance Of it
was as follows:
Tho one permanent move to OBJ
tain peace is by an agreement among
the great powers to join In a common
tribunal and to pledge themselves
to abide by the decisions of the trl,
bunal and to exert their forces for

He was referring to the league OF
nations. Previously he made use of
some utterances by Senator Lodge
at banquet in 1916 at which the
president was present. Senator
Lodge, in speaking of an association
of nations, declared according to
the president, that it would not con.
flict with Washingtons address
wherein he warned the American pco.
pie against entangling alliances with
foreign nations.

The Red Cross has announced that

will be one in which the citizenship
OF the entire state can participate.
It Is proposed that there be an en-
campment of the boys at Fort Lin

as possible and a grand review OF
the troops.
The most opportune time for such a
celebration 1t is believed would be the
first week in July Business interests
here are opposed to any carnival
featuresh. 1t is not proposed to de
tract from the welcome by street
shows and money making ventures.
Those interested feel that al

A VOTE OF THANKS TO THE MAN WHO
WHO INVENTED CLOTHES ~

Speaking by and large-or rather, buy and
large"-theres nothing that quite fills a man so
full of joy as buying new suit. (That's where
the "buy' comes in.) And there's nothing that
makes his self-respect quite so large as stroll
down the avenue garbed in said stylish habili-
ments, his head erect, his chest chesty, and his
step springy with the feeling of man who can
look everyone in the face and say: you're no
better dressed than ami" (That's where the
large comes in.) g..
The joys of a new suit 1.-THE exquisite delight
of picking out something that matches your par
tcular style of "beauty" the soul-stirring pleas
ure of trying on the coat and hearing the sales
man remark that you have "fine figure; the
delicious delightfulness of wearing the new outfit
down to the office and making the other fellow
sit up and take notice while they smooth out their
old coats and calculate: "By jove, it's time got
new suit, too"
You look in mirror and decide that you're a
pretty good looking guy after all. That whisp of
gray hair above your forehead really makes you
look sort of distinguished and the blue in the
cloth brings out the blue in your eyes-not that
you're van or anything like that-but a mans a
nut not to make the best appearance he possibly
can, you know.
And when you get back on the job, all satisfied
and glowing inside, how you do jazz 'em up! The
tasks that were formerly toilscme melt before
your ardent activity like butter in hot summer
sun. You're more fit all the way through and
all because of single new suit of clothes!
When you realize all that clothes do for you,
you feel like giving a vote of thanks, loving
cup and an engraved testimonial of regard to the
memory of the man who invented them, whoever
he was.

THEY KNOW HOW 1T FEELS TO WAIT
FOR LETTERS THAT DON'T COME

Time was when the youngsters who went to
the big cities to make their way in the world
rather laughed at the old folks when the latter
urged them to write home frequently. The boys
rather thought it was something of an imposition
to ask them to take time from their business and
pleasure every day or so to pen an epistle to the
folks. They viewed the letters from home rather
casually. Home too close-by, too easy to reach
to make them feel it's temporary loss very keenly.
But when these same chaps arrived "oVer
there and began yodeling for JOY when letter
from home reached them, they soon learned what
it is to wait with anxious longing for the mail man
and to feel that dreary sinking of the heart when
he fails to hand over the hoped-for epistle They
discovered that the lonesomest feeling in the world
is when the expected letter from home fails to
arrive and they learned how important letters are
They realized the inestimable cheer it brings to
have the loved ones at home write lengthiy and
often.
And now when they are back in America and
