State Fair Price Commissioner T. J.
Locke, j., of Columbus, in replying
to the request for an expert, stated
the committee had all the power nee
essary to determine on prices that
would be fair and that it should reach
its decision from lists of prices charg-
ed, these to be turned in by the deal
ers. It is now thought that the COM
mittee will go ahead, said Chairman
Cameron, and use it's best efforts to
fix prices. There has been a dis
position on the part of no Meridian
dealers, wholesale or retail, to COM
bat any duty assigned to the fair
price committee. In fact. the dealers
all appear to be anxious that an ami
cable adjustment Of prices NAV be
reached at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and they have, to a man, CO.
operated with the committee at every
opportunity.

Hale, who is a hermit. living on his farm
about two miles from the village OF Fair
field Center was absen. from the place
since 10 O'Clock yesterday morning until
about two In the afternoon.
On his return he discovered that pin
box "a which he kept milk checks and
the deed Of his farm had been tempered
with. The checks. he said. amounted to
over $50 and some Of them were endorsed.
He could find neither the checks nor the
deed.
The officers who by this time had en-
listed the services of Constable Ryan had
a clue which led them to look for Arthur
Brassard, who was found working in
sugaring for Thomas sorrell, having
begun work to-day. although he was ex-
pected there about week ago.
Brassard told peculiar story about
his arrival in Fairfield yesterday and
when accused by the officers of the

tanned that he had taken nothing but
food. He admitted that he had opened

bread The officers failed to shake this
story and finally went to the Hale house
taking Brassard with them.
When they arrived Mr.. Hale had al
ready found his deed and the officers
soon located the checks. Apparently it
was a case of jumping at conclusions.
When Mr.. Hale found that the box had
been opeend he thought the checks had
been stolen and In hasty search he did
not find them.
Brassard's non-arrival at Sorrells was
explained by his admission that he went
