JUDGE MILLS WILL
SERVE IN COUNTY
COURT SAYS REPORT
COUNTY CLERK WILL APPOINT
SUCCESSOR TO LATE JUDGE
POSSIBLE UNTIL 1920.

The death of Judge Henry Mayo
yesterday places responsibility for
naming his successor to the County
Court bench upon County Clerk
Thomas A. Ferguson, according to legal
authorities in statements made today
to the Free Trader-Journal. The law
establishes that in cases where there
is little or no opportunity for holding
special election to name a successor
for a deceased jurist it shall be the
duty of the clerk to call in some judge
to serve until such time as an cleo
tion can be held and the people given
chance to name their choice.
AS result Of this law r. ID. Mills

ably will be named by 'the clerk to
perform the duties the of county
Judge until the general election of
office until the general election of
1920, when a candidate vii be chosen
to fill the uneXpired term of the late
Judge Mayo.
There is no possibility of the gov.
ernor'S naming a man to serve the re-
mainder of the three years of Judge
MayO's term, as the law provides for
the governor selecting judge only in
cases where the vacancy occurs in
less than one year from the day of the
regular election.
Republicans and Democrats who
saw hope of getting candidates into
the Sept 10 constitutional convention
primary and the election subsequent
therto were forced to disappointment
when it was learned the time in which
to file petitions and get names upon
the ballots elapsed a week ago thus
precluding the possibilities of takir q

money

will be asked TO assume the duties of
both courts for the rest of this year
and up to the time Of the general
election in 1920 To secure a man
other than Judge Mills would compel

OUT LA SAllE COUNTY AND
MADE TO FEEL STING OF LAW.

Interesting developments in the La
Sale County food situation are ex-
pected following the arrival home,
possibly tonight, Of States Attorney
George S Wiley. who has been in Chi
cagO attending conference with Dis
trict Attorney Charles Clyne, at which
pros and cons of prosecuting hoarderS
and protiteers were discussed
States Attorney Wiley together
with other county prosecutors attend
ing the Chicago conference, were in
structed to lend the government every
assistance they could TO bring an end
to protiteerng in any and all Of its
several forms by forcing u trial those
men accused of charging excessive
prices for their wares.
To Fill Vacancy.
The state, it was explained. had
been handicapped during the past
week in not having state food ad
ministrator, the successor to Harry A
Wheeler. former state officer, who re
signed. not having been selected. The
vacancy will be filled soon and from
that time on matters are expected to
whirl in the general scheme against
protiteering.
Representatives from nineteen cities
and ten counties in this federal dis
trict We're present at the conference.
One specific instruction was given to
the several county officers. that of re-
porting Immediately all sales Of
sugar by middlemen where the price
exceeded s10.j0 a hundred pounds
and sales made by retailers exceed
ing II cents a pound.
Retailers Protected.
II was explained that where the re-
taller had been forced to buy from the
excess of S10.50 and was therefore un-
able to retail the commodity at a price Z
which would allow them a reasonable /.
profit. there was no intention on the |
part ol the government W prosecute
the retailer.
The purpose of reporting the re-
tailers, it was asserted, was in order /
to trace the purchase Of the sugar to |
the middleman.
The publication OF fair price lists |
in which the different commodities .
and the prices for which they should .
be purchased is another angle which .
the officers expect to use in the profit
eering battle and local committees
will probably be appointed with power
prices.
