son why II should not have grown aud become the
metropolis Of the county"
Lincoln first saw New Salem In April. 1881,
when he and his iatboat crew had their famous
adventure on the milldam. He was on his way
from Beardstown to New Orleans, where he saw
the selling Of slaves and said, III ever l get q
chance TO hit that thing, I'll hit It hard"
July l, 1881, Lincoln walked into New Salem to
serve as clerk In the Offut store when II should
be ready. The town election at that time was held
during the first week In August, and Lincoln be-
ing about the polling place, was asked by Mentor
Graham the man who later became his friend
and teacher, II he could write Lincoln replied, Il
can make few rabbit tracks" whereupon he was
invited In to assist in keeping tally, the regular
clerk having failed to appear. 1t is said that dur
ing the lull In voting Lincoln improved the op-
portunity TO tell stories. So here was Lincoln's
Introduction to politics. But he was finished
story-teller even then.

The house Of representatives, said, "A states

Well. Lincoln was beaten by Peter Cartwright

SUPREME COURT
MEXICO FAVORS
OIL COMP PANIES
Important and Unani-
nous Decision On the
Side of the Texas Oil
Company VIII Have a
Far-Reaching Effect on
United States Interests

Mexico City, Aug. 31.-Oficials Of
the Mexican department of commerce
and industry have been enjoined by
The supreme court from denouncing
rights to oil lands held by the Texas
Company prior to May 1, 1917. This
decision, handed down last night by
4 unanimous vote Of the court, prob
ably sets q precedent for the courts
action in dealing with nearly $50
cases calling into question the effect
of article 81 of the Mexican constitu-
ton.
The Texas company appealed to the
court for an amparo, or preliminary
certificate, issued to the holder of
land claim, pending the issuance of
pre-emption papers. This action was
taken to prevent the government from
denouncing claims held by the com
pany. Ii the other oil companies
which have brought similar actions are
victorious, it is generally believed that
the decisions will constitute the
courts definition of article 81 and its
Interpretation of that article as be-
ing non-retroactive in its effects, and
claims to oil lands held before May l,
1917, cannot be questioned.
Justice Adolfo Arias prepared the
decision in which his colleagues en-
tered. When court opened yesterday
and discussions were begun. Justice
Arias was the first to speak. and he
emphatically championed the Texas
company's contentious. asserting that
the announcement in question was in
direct violation of article II of the
Mexican constitution. This article
states that no law shall be given ret
roactive effect to the prejudice of any
person whatsoever" He also was en-
phatic in stating that the nationaliza..
ton of petroleum deposits under ar
ticle 81 of the constitution must not
be made retroactive SO that it would
apply to lands legally acquired under
he mining law as it stood previous to
May /, 1917. That law declared that
oil was a part of the soil wherever
found.

WATCHING FOR
NEGRO MURDERER

Miami, Aug. 31.-Deputy sheriffs'
working under the personal super
vision of Sheriff Louis A. Allen, are
guarding every approach to this city
by way of the Miami canal for dis
tance of more than 2S miles above
Miami in- order to apprehend Sam
Wells, negro, who, it is alleged, shot
and killed Deputy Sheriff G. C. Doug
las, and fatally wounded his son, How
ard Douglas, of Palm Beach county
near the lock site at the head OF the
canal Saturday night.
Last night Sheriff Allen said he in
tended to keep two deputies on duty
on the canal and that she and de-
tective would make day and night
searches in the country in the vicin-
ity of the canal. Sheriff Allen. how
ever, expressed the opinion that pos
sibly the negro was hiding in the
Everglades but that he would be
forced to come out and either sur
render or make an attempt to escape
before many days as it was almost
impossible to secure enough food in
the wilds where he is believed to be
hiding.
