Polk Road I angle

EalIas, Or, Mar. 1S.-It was vot-
ed at the meeting of the Dallas
Commercial club last evening to if
possible bring about peace between
polk county and the state highway
commission.
Reasoning that Dallas had been
defeated in its stand that the high-
way should come through the town,
a big majority of the members took
the position that having been lick
ed 1t is the part of gool sports to
take our medicine, acknowledge
the fact and do all possible to set
tie the cases now in court" IN the
language Of one member of the
club.
The stand taken by Independence
may have something to do with the
ultimate outcome. This is shown By
the fact that the matter was re-
ferred back to the joint Dallas-ln-
dependence committee, with IN
structions to make final report. II
possible, at the next meeting or the
Dallas club.

point where surplus is obviated.
To reduce production to the point
where an artificial scarcity is created
is. illegitimate.
From still another viewpoint, it
might be advisable to omit a cotton
crop next year, and that would be
forcing the farmers to plant other
crops. Then they might cease the
practice of sending to Chicago to buy
hogs that they can raise just as we'll
on their own farms. The South can
produce anything it needs in the
way Of food crops, which have here
tofore been crowded out by cotton.
It would be- good thing to teach the
Southern farmers to be self-sustain-
ing. They work hard to raise enough
cotton to sell for enough money to
buy food when they could just as
well ;expepd less labor by raising the
food IN the first place.-New York

GOING TOO FAR.

p The Observer would not set up its
Judgment of the law against that Of a
eli Circuit judge, but if law is common
sense, one man ought to be able to
interpret it as well as another. And
so we venture to think that Judge
Frank Gary was wrong at Spartan
burg in granting Hatchette and Por-
ter a continuance on the ground that
the court was not a regular but a
special one, basing his opinion on the
recent decision of the supreme court
in the Gossett case. -,
To our mind that case was alto
gether different from the Gossett
case. In the Gossett case the special
court had been called to try Gossett
in the Hatchette and Porter case the
special court had been called before
Hatchette andd Porter had committed
the alleged crime, and therefore, of
course, had no reference whatever to
them. Their alleged offense was COM
mitted between the calling and the
sitting of the special court.
We we'll remember in Newberry
court years, ago when a negro was
caught picking the pocket of the late
Alfred Reeder of gold watch on the
street not forty feet from the court
house, and was carried Immediately
before the judge then sitting on the
bench, and was convicted-or else
pleaded guilty-and was sentenced
to the penitentiary for number of
years. Not thirty minutes intervened
between the pocket-picking and the
sentence.
That was not special" court; but
what difference can that make so
long as the court is not called to try
a special individual?
Our reading of the supreme courts
decision is that Gossett was given a
new trial because he was tried by a
court that had been called specially
to try Gossett.
Of course, though, we yield our
Judgment to the learned court
though we cannot see any, reason in
common sense for the courts decis-
ion.-Newberry Observer.

teeship upon the whole conference.
1t is regretable that the conference
for reasons quite beyond the control
of the participating powers, is to be
deprived of the advantage Of Russian
cooperation in it's deliberations, but
it is not to be conceived that the
conference will make decisions pre-
judicial to legitimate Russian inter-
ests or which would in any manner
violate Russian rights.
'It is the hope and expectation Of
the government of the United States
that the conference will establish
general principles of international
action which will deserve and have
the. support of the people Of Siberia
and of all Russia by reason of: their
Justice and efficacy in the settle
ment of outstanding difficulties"
The state department has recent
ly sent to Chita John Caldwell, a
consul, for temporary service with
instructions to observe and report to
the Departments developments in that
region. It was declared, however,
that Caldwell's presence in Chita did
not impy recognition.
Sufficient assurances, formal and
informal, ARE understood to have
been received by the state depart
ment from the differnt powers in
vited to participate in the armament
conference to make it appear that
Holland and Belgium will be- given
seats at the conference when it dis
cusses Far Eastern subjects. =.
The only formal replies are those
from France and JAPAN but it was
explained today that informal as
surances had been received from
other quarters and that the delay in
dispatehing more precise responses
was due largely to the absence from
the various capitals of the RESPONSE
ble members of the government.
The state departments proposals
regarding the conference which were
forwarded to the invited powers, are
understood to have been, responded
to in part and on the whole to have
met with little announced opposition.
Official comment, however, on the
character of such replies as have
been made was withheld, although

Business Men Protest
Against Mail Service
Largely Signed Petition Asks for
Resumption of Service on Early
Morning Train.

A petition signed by about 200
business men and citizens of the city
of Sank Centre, has been forwarded
to postal authorities at Washington,
asking that mail service east on train
No. s, Of the Great Northern road, be
resumed.
The petition was circulated at the
instigation of VIM. Parker, president
of the Commercial Club, and was for
warded by Postmaster JOS. Schoen-
hoff.
Mail service on this train was stop
ped by the railroad company about
two weeks ago. This change cuts off
all eastern mail service from this city
between the hours of 7:45 in the eve
ming and 1:45 in the afternoon, and
is a great handicap to business men.
This train does not carry mail
from this point at all. The petition
sent to Washington, sets forth the
case of the city and requests that
steps be taken Immediately to have
this morning mail service re-insteded
at once.
Postmaster Schoenhof said We'd
nesday that he had heard nothing
from Washington in the matter, but

Hope to Promote Bet
ter Community Spirit
Close Cooperation of All Clubs De-
sired-Frank Wilson of Uni
versity TO Speak.

g An informal gathering of citizens
representing Sank Centre and vicini-
ty, was held Wednesday evening to
discuss the betterment of conditions
and the promotion Of good feeling
and mutual interest in the entire
community of Sank Centre and the
territory surrounding it.
A number of schemes were advanc-
ed looking toward closer union of
the existing clubs in the locality. No
definite action was taken, as the idea
was put forward that all movements
should come from the inside as a
slow and sure growth, rather than
snap judgment.
1t was the unanimous opinion OF
all present that it would be well to
invite Frank Wilson of the Universe.
ty Of Minnesota to meet with and ad,
dress meeting made up of the com.
bined membership of the various or
CARNATIONS and all others not mem
bers Of any of the existing clubs, but
who are interested in promoting the
welfare of the community at large.
1t is hoped to hold this meeting il
the near future depending on Mr.
Wilson's CONVENIENCE. The date vii
be announced later.
This is a movement which is in it
infancy at the present time and MI
Wilson will ontline various plan
which have been highly satisfactor,
elsewhere.
