SHERIFF TAKES PRISONERS
TO JEFFERSON CITY

Sheriff Ed Roberts and his deputies
left Monday-night for Jefferson City
with eight prisoners from this county.
Included in the number were Claude
Epps, Chas. Newton, Dave Fisher and
Alfred Ferry, the railroad men who
were convicted of robbing Frisco
freight cars; ]. 7. Wright, who rob
bed the Mulhall & Gimbel grocery and
Fred McCombs, who stole wheat from
d farmer.
All Of the above men had wives and
small children and their parting at
the Frisco station at Monett was most
pathetic. Much sympathy is express
ed in particular for the railroad men.
Outside of taking merchandise from
the railroad cars, the men were good
citizens and it is doubtful if they
would have taken a nickle from a pri-
vate citizen. By a mistaken moral
code among some people, it is not
considered a crime to steal from a
corporation. The practice was too
common and it was necessary to make
an example of someone, but no one
can help feeling sympathy for the
convicted men who are probably no
more guilty than many others who
were not found out.
j. T. Wright, another prisoner,
claimed that he robbed the grocery
store in order to feed his family. He
had been out of work for some time
and he said his children were hun
gry.

am mailing you under separate cover
you are Officially dead" Why? Be-
cause the paper said SO! But you see
am funny sort Of chap. I don't
believe it, so I am taking a chance and
writing to dead man. Itguess
though there are lot of bootleggers
around that neck of the woods that
would like to see you dead. If you
write me and let me know just how
much alive you are, will write more
and also correct that report that got
circulated about YOU"
Mr.. Ahearn was correct in his sur
mise that Mr.. johnson was still alive.

YAP CONTROVERSY
is SETTLED
Treaty is Drawn Up Embodying Cable
and Radio Privileges Contended
for by Americans.

Washington, Dec. 12.-The Ameri-
can and Japanese governments have
composed their differences over the
Pacific island of Yap and prepared to
sign treaty by which Japan retains
administrative control over the Island
and the United States secures the
cable and wireless privileges, there fol
which she had contended Since the
Paris peace conference.
In the same treaty Japan's league
of nations mandate over Yap and
other Pacific islands formerly under
German sovereignty is given recog-
nition by the United States on certain
stipulated conditions. These provis-
ions are for free admission of mis-
sionaries and protection of American
interests, and require that Japan shall
report to the United States as well as
the league Of nations in regard to de-
tails of her administration.
The wire and radie privileges are
considered highly important. In the
exercise of these"rights American ma
tions are to be free from taxes, cen
sorship, licensing and every form OF
discrimination in supervision, and in
addition are to be aided by the Jap
anese government in securing needed
properties and facilities.
The immediate value of the ar
rangement to the United States lies
in the concessions. with regard to
cable communications because they
insure complete American control OF
the cable between Yap and Guam
Considerable Importance also is at
tached by the American officials tc
the radio privileges, although it is to
be agreed in the treaty that no Ameri-
can radio station will be installed as
long as the present Japanese plant is
operated without discriminatory ex-
actions.
