GETS F YEARS FOR
 MURDER OF WIFE

Fort Smith, July 13.-Sid Rec, Crawford county farmer, charged with the murder of his wife, who died June after her husband had given her terrible beating two days before, pleaded guilty to second de- gree murder in circuit court at Van Buren yesterday morning and was sentenced to serve 15 years in the penitentiary.
 Judges Cochran of Paris, before whom the case was to have been heard, pronounced sentence at once.
 Ree's case attracted statewide at tention, because of the brutality of the crime and because of the mans seeming indifference, at first, to the seriousness of his case.
 When brought into the courtroom morning Rec exhibited the same stoicism which has character ized his attitude ever since his wife's death. When the case was called Rec arose and calmly pleaded guilty 10 second degree murder. No mem- Der of Rcc's family of 10 children

MISSISSIPPI
 COUNTY HAS A
 KN0TTY ISSUE
Land Caving Into Missis- sippi River Gives Rise 10 Title Problem That's Puzzling.

Little Rock, July 13.--There is no more vexatious problem in the law books than that of rcpariau ownership. An interesting question was propounded to Attorney Gen eral Utley by the county surveyor of Mississippi county Years ago 2 certain tract of land cavcd into the Mississippi river. the owner failed to r9y taxes md the Ind has since been listed as state land. The river has formed bar where the land was and the question arose whether the state had right to the land or whether it belonged to the riparian owner. A case is cited in the Arkansa reports to the effect that islands as an accretion in the channel of navigable river belong to the state and not to the riparian owner" Another decision holds that "the right of the riparian owner on the navigable rivers ex- tends to high water mark only" In the instance noted, it is therefore held that the secretion belongs to the state.

PRESIDENT IS SUCCESSFULON
 BONUS FIGHT
Shelving of Measure Con- ceded Following Fl i 5 Speech in Senate-His Criticism Is Blunt.

Washington, July 13.-Refund- ing of $lO,0O0,000,000 allied debt must be settled before the soldier bonus measure can be enacted. This statement was voiced by Senator Penose who declared that President Harding's message advising delay in disposing of the bonus measure re- suited in calling the senate finance committee to consider the bill glv- ing Secretary Mellon broad powers in rcfunding the loans.
 Washington. July 3.-Pledges of wide majority of votes to lay aside the soldier bonus bill were claimed by Republican leaders and conceded by opponents after FreSl- dent Harding, in an address to the Senate yesterday, made formal re- quest for temporary pOstponcment of of the measure. Tn making his request the president called attention to the condition or the Treasury, saying that enactment of the legislation at this time would greatly imperil the financial sta bility of our country
 Immediately after tho president had finished speaking Chairman Penrose Of the Finance Committee moved that the bill be recommitted to his committee. but Democratic opposition flared up and prevented a vote yesterday The motion was under unlimited debate, but vote today is expected, although some Democratic opponents said if may be delayed until Thursday.
 President Harding delivered his address at 3 o'clock before dis tinguished audience. Reiterating his recognition of the obligations to care for disabled and dependent war veterans, the president Sald general compensation" should be entered upon at a time when 1t would be consistently possible
 Flnging aside the caution which has characterized his attitude to- ward the bonus in the past, the president stood before his former colleagues and bluptly criticized the
Paragould soliphone., 1921-07-15

measure as "a menacing effort to cxpend billions in gratuities.
 He painted the governments fi- nancial outlook in dark colors and frankly declared that enactment of the bonus not only would render tax reduction impossible but would greatly imperil the financial sta bility of our country"
 'I know the feelings of my own breast and that of yours and the grateful people of this republic, said the president. But no thought full person, possessed with all the facts, is ready for added compen- sation for the healthful, self-reliant masses of the army at cost of Q Treasury breakdown which will bring it's hardshps to sll the citi- zens of the republic"
 Mr. Harding specifically asked the Senate to recommit tho bonus bill to the Finance Committee. He ventured no prediction when condi- tions might warrant resurrection Of the measure beyond saying that ta; reductoin, rcfundoing of the war debt. and adjustment of our foreign loans must be settled "before add ing to our Treasury any such bur dens as is contemplated in the peud- ing bill."
 While he spoke in this emphatic manner against the passage of the bonus, Mir. Harding declared in un- language for the fullest measure of relief to the disabled Vetran8 of the World war. He ex- pressed fear that enactment of the bonus would SO cripple the Treasury that it would he impossible for the to discharge it's first obligations to those we must not fail to aid" He flatly contradicted charges that the nation has neglect ed it's defenders and recited an im- pressive array of figures to slow what the government has expended for veterans relief. He told the Senate that 26.237 disabled soldiers have been hospitalized and that in government controlled hospitals to- day there are 6,000 available beds without occupants, despite charges of American Legion representatives and other witnesses before the Sen ate Soldier Relief Committee that hospital facilities have been made quate.

LOCATES AN ARTIST

Little Rock, July 14.-Governor McRac is on the hot trail Of the champion old time fiddler of Ark apsas. He was found by Colonel Ed Landvoight of Forrest City. Colonel Landvoight recommends John Stott of Pine Tree for the New Orleans old fiddlers contest.
 "Perhaps he is not as good a fiddler as Nero" writes Colonel Landvoight, but the way he pulls down on the wire E, occasionally reaching for the G, would probably have extinguished the fire in Rome. Billy in the New Ground Arkan- saw Traveller old Zip Coon, 'Dcvil'h Dream Old Hundred, 'Rocksy Ann Sally in the Garden The Fatal Wedding Turkey in the Straw and a vast repertoire of improvised tones pour from his fiddle like the soughing of the gen tie breezes through cornfield on dewy morn. MT. Stott has flddled his way through o4 years ana Has worn out wire E strings enough to cable the country. We place him in nomination at the "call of the wild" for an old time Arkansas fiddler. Gorgot to mention that a number 12 foot pats an accompan- ment."
 It is almost certainty that Un- cle John is elected for the New Orleans contest.

session of Congress or for several years.
 The Arkansas senator said that the president did not present any information which the Senate had not already known, even as to the condition of the federal Treasury, and that there was no moro reason now for killing the bonus bill thah there had been when the Senate yot- cd 47 to four to begin its conSidera- tion.
 He called attention to the fact that the government is finding a way for making a payment of S500,- coo 900 to thcs railroads, and yet is unable or unwilling to contract for the payment of $200, 100000 a year from now on to the soldiers who risked their lives that this nation and civilization might live.
 Senator Robinson said that the bonus could be paid if the admins tration were willing to do so with out the expenditure of single dollar from the federal Treasury l by issuing adjusted compensation bonds for sale to the people of the country. He declared these bonds would find market more readily than the railroad bonds.
