JUDGE STARTS ON
BANK FAILURE CASE

Judge Langan called the district
court to order yesterday to fix a date
for the hearing of the State Bank
case and issue orders respecting the
testimony of the hearing that would
come before him in his effort to wind
up the affairs of the b.ak and the
receivership.
The case was opened by Deputy
Attorney General Richards for the
state. In his complaint it was stated
that full accounting of the receiver
is required from 1916 to date; that
the surety bond of the receiver be
rehabilitated and that all of the mat
ters of settle ent be included in the
hearing.
The attorney general also set up
the contention that there should be
no compensation further allowed the
receiver, owing to non-feasance in of
flee since 1918.
Attorney Green, for the receiver,
asked that Judge Langan fix the COM
pensation matter of the receiver be-
fore the further hearing, maintaining
that the reversal of the supreme
court to his order fixing compensa-
ton leaves that question as it was
when first submitted.
There was considerable argument
over the question and judge Langan
finally decided that all matters be
submitted at the same time. 1t was
further decided that the report of the
receiver be filed up to January l,
1921.
After hearing the suggestions of
attorneys in the matter the date for
hearing was set for April Is, when 1t
is expected that the entire details of
the bank matter will be gone over.
During the session Alfred Chartz
asked that he be named as an attor-
ney in fact, that he represented a
number of depositors in the final
hearing. He named Julia B. Hawley
and his own interests.
e. T. Patrick also was recorded as
an attorney of record, he represent
ing the Twaddle estate, H. b. Milard
and others.

BOYLE VETOES DECORATING
BILL OF RAILROADERS

House bill No. SO, known as the
Decoration" bill, over which a de-
termined fight was made in the late
legislature by both railroad employ
ers and employees, was vetoed by
Governor Boyle. In his veto message
the governor stated:
This measure is designed to abro-
gate certain operating rule of rail-
way companies which requires the
presence of brakemen on top of run
ming cars and trains at certain speci-
fled times and places and to substi-
tute therefore a prohibitive lay deny
ing the right either to the company
to promulgate certain rules or to
conductors or others in charge of
trains to exercise individual judg-
ment in the matter of requiring serv-

the council agreed to adjourn until
next Thursday night to hear the evil
dence of both sides. This meeting
will be called to order at s o'clock in
the hose house.
Further discussion of methods to
eradicate selling of booze over the
bar" was then taken up and Council
man Sites said he favored putting
these men under bond-that If they
broke their word again it would fur
nish the city with some money, at any
rate. Councilman Hoskins said he
believed the proof against the men is
positive and to put them under bond
would be to invite argument. Sites
said they hadn't intended to break
the law. Councilman Akin thought
the matter should be handled with
the legal Formally proper and at the
expiration of two days, he thought,
the licenses should be revoked.
Other matters of business were dis
cussed including the long standing
hydrant rental issue. A satisfactory
settlement has never been reached on
this subject. The city has forty-eight
hydrants and for these the council
claims the understanding was that
the city was to pay at the rate of "
each for forty-five The Water &
Light Company claims the city shall
pay 81 for each hydrant installed, re-
CARELESS of number. 1t was decided
to have a round the table" confer
ence between the council, members of
the Public Service Commission and
representatives of the water company
TO see if a friendly and satisfactory
settlement can be made.
Fire Warden Rougon brought up
the question of a cleanup day and
turned over the sum of $35 from the
sale of old hose. Miss Harp reported
she had received s210 dog license fees
turned in by Officer Leighton.
Councilman Akin reported that
trees had been set out and shelter
started on the auto camp ground.
This was the first meeting to be
held in the new council chamber in
the fire house. Last week new floor
was put in over the fire truck room
and as soon as a new table, benches
and a hat rack are completed the
room will be all that could be asked
for as a place to transact city bust
ness. Hereafter the hose house"

TARIFF BILL To BE
FIRST TAKEN Up

An Associated Press dispatch from
Washington says that the house ways
and means committee voted yesterday
to take up the Fordney tariff bill pre-
eisely as vetoed by Mr.. Wilson ana
nut 1t through the special session Oh
congress with a six months limita-
ton.
President Harding suggested to
Chairman Fordney that the house
ways and means committee sound out
the senate Republicans as to the
feasibility of early passage of an
emergency tariff that would care for
the farmers.
1t was the idea of the President
members said, to avoid an embargo
and to limit the bill to very few
items, including wheat and wool.

POLITICIAN GUILTY
Of MANSLAUGHTER

James H. Nevin, politician and min
ing man, stands convicted of the
crime of manslaughter in connection
with the death of Mrs Eta Hanna in
an apartment at 1876 West Second
street on the night of February g.
says the Gazette. The manslaughter
verdict was returned by the Neven
jury Saturday morning after a little
more than two hours had been been
consumed in actual deliberation. The
case was placed in the jury's hands
at 1885 o'clock Friday night at the
close of nerve-racking session in
which the district attorney devoted
five hours to plea for conviction
and the defense consumed a period
Of but little less time urging ver-
dict of acquittal.
The twelve men into whose hands
the fate of the defendant was placed
at the conclusion of the district at
torney's closing argument, endeav-
ored for two hours to agree before
thew sought repose in their rooms
at the Riverside hotel. They retired
at l o'clock Saturday morning. From
the breakfast table, they went at once
to the jury room at the court house
to resume their deliberations. They
had been locked up but a few min
utes when Bailiff Mckinley was no.
titled that they were ready to return
verdict.

WOMEN VOTERS DISGUSTED.

1t is stated that in certain coun-
ty in this state many women voters
have decided to have nothing to do
with politics-have found so much
corruption and "rottenncss" as to
disgust them, and hence the decision
to "wash our hands of the whole
dirty business"
This is exactly what was predict
cd by some men and women, too,
who opposed woman suffrage in the
beginning. Politics is not woman's
job, it was declared. and women were
warned to "stay out"
On the other hand, the corrup-
ton in politics, incilicicncy of public
officials, useless expenditures, etc,
were given rs the very reasons why
women should take II hand, 1t Yas
urged by women, and men rs we'll
that women should pitch right in
and bring something to. pass, exert
their influence in cleaning up things
around and in the court houses of
the state, and to fall down on the
job now will be to prove thcmsclvc.;
recreant to the call of duty, and :.
disappointment to their friends and
supporters. The physician is needed
most where there is most sickness.
The Rcformer is needed most where
SIN and corruption is most prevalent.
The women heard and needed tn,

the saloons and brewcrics, and what
happened then is history. And his

COUNTY AGENT WALL REPLIES

Dear Editor:
In your issue Of August Goth an
peared an editorial entitled "A prop
or inquiry us to the county demon
strator." did not answer this last
week because l did not wish to saw
anything during the Fair, but if yoI
VIII kindly allow me space will
reply now.
Mr.. Fisher is just starting in
the work here to take my place as
county agent. 1t is hardly just to
put the blame on him for the fail
urc of the Fair. If there is any
charge against the county agent put
1t on me. preferred to say nothing
about the Fair but the Secretary
forces me to. AS soc it. the pres
ent fair is one man proposition
conducted for personal gain. To ali
appearances the management is only
Interested i'll race horses, carnivnls
ilrty shows. free auto contests with
only pretcnsc of interest in the
i've stock and agricultural exhibits.
The supervisors appropriated the
tax payers money to pay practical
ly all the premiums given to live
stock and agricultural exhibits, so
that the fair itself did practically
nothing along this line. Such bus
mess held in the summer could not
hope to be called fair. For my
part | do not feel justified in pro-
noting the personal interests Of nm
individual Mt the expense of the
