CHINA IS READY
 TO FIGHT JAPAN
Senior Picking Delegate Denounces "Twenty-one Demands" the Terms of Which He Declared Would
 Make Country vassal State.

Washington, Jan. 14.-China to- night served formal notice on the world of her intention to fight before the Washington conference for the ab- rogation of the famous twenty -one demands regardless of the an- nounced opposition of the Japanese and British delegations.
 China's action took the form of an official statement by Dr. Chung Hun Wang, former chief justice of the su- preme court of China and a senior member of the Chinese delegation here.
 Liking the demands to Germany's ultimatum on Russia and France in 1914, the Chinese spokesman declared: "It is inconceivable that while China, even under the menace of the ultimatum of 1915, had the courage to protest against the demands, she would remain silent now when she is ! participant in a conference the avowed object of which is to remove international misunderstanding re- lating to the far East"
 Violation of Treaty Rights"
 Read in their true light, the twen- ty-one demands practically reduce China to the position of vassal state, depriving her of the right of self development and self-preservation Dr. Wang declared. They constitute fragrant infringement of the open door policy rights of other powers with interests in China, and assure to the Japanese "such a privileged posi- tion that no equality of opportunity is possible" Dr. Wang asserted.
 Under their terms, China is re- quired to build her railways in her own territory only with Japans con- sent, Dr. Wang continued. She is compelled to give up her coal, iron and gold mines so that they may be operated only by Japanese and with Japanese capital; she is required not to build dockyards or other shipping equipment in Fukien, one of her prin- cipal provinces; she is required not to borrow foreign capital other than Japanese for the development Of the Hanyehping iron works, the greatest in the country, and she is compelled to extend the lease of Port Arthur and Dairen, and the terms of the South Manchurian & Antung- Mukden railway for ninety-nine years.
 Affects the Other Powers.
 Now it cannot be denied that the twenty-one demands affect not only the independence and integrity of China, but also her obligations toward other powers," the Chinese spokes- man said. They put into jeopardy the rights and interests enjoyed by the foreign powers having treaty re- lations with China.
 Tt is needless to says these condi- tions, unless removed or renounced will place China in a position where self-development and self -preserva- tion become a practical impossibility.

\. N, HILL, .BL|ND,
 KILLED BY WOMAN
Killing, Which Occurred in Scott County, Followed Insulting Pro- posal to Mrs. Richard Pettigrew,
 in Her Home--No Witness.

Plainview, Jan. 10.-Because, ac- |rofding to her statement, he made an Insulting proposal to her, and also Attempted to draw a revolver, Mrs. Richard Pettigrew Monday afternoon |ahot and instantly killed w. N. Hill, a blind man, aged about 50, while he zaz in room in her home, 20 miles west of here, near Gravelly. Mrs. Reftigrew, who is about 30 years of mn, used a shotgun loaded with huckshot, and the mans head was blown off by the charge.
 Hill was chicken peddler, operat- inR several wagons in his trade, and when not on the road, boarded and made his headquarters at the Petit grew home. At an inquest held be- |fore a justice of the peace later in l the day, Mrs. Pettigrew was exoner- lated.
 There were no witnesses to the killing. Mrs. Pettigrew, after she |shot Hill, stated that she and the blind man were in the house alone, her husband having left home. When she rebuffed Hills propo- als. she said, he reached into his in- 'nide pocket if to draw a weapon. She then stepped back, she said, took | Shotgun from the wall, and fired. At the inquest, it was stated that a .38 calibre revolver was found in HiIl's inside coat pocket.
 The killing occurred in Scott coun- |ty, just over the line from Yell coun- <y, and about two miles west of Grav-
 Ily. Considerable interest is att <1ched to the affair because of the so1newhat unusual character of Hill, who was widely known in this sec tiou For years he had operated five ux Six wagons, buying and selling poultry. He is said to have spent three years in the penitentiary, be- l ginning about 1900, and wrote a book Three Years in the Arkansas Pcnitentiary." He became blind about fifteen years ago as the result | of q fight at Danville with Dan Man
 gum when the latter fired on him with
 Shotgun, the load striking Hill in
 he face. Mangum was exonerated. Whatever stigma had become at ached to Hill because of his three ears in the penitentiary, he had lived down and had borne a good reputa- ion for many years. He and his |IFife separated several years ago. Hill |s survived by two sons, both school
 teachers. One is Chester Hill, who is
 somewhere in southern Arkansas. The

 Richard Pettigrew, husband of the
 Woman who killed Hill, was at Plain-
 riew when the shooting occurred, and
 vas on his way to Fort Smith to an- wer in Federal court to charge of
 1akif1g whiskey. Officers at Plain- few, when they learned of the trag- dy at Hills home, allowed him to re- |e7rn.
 The only W. N. Hill shown on the scords at the state penitentiary is a tan sentenced from Pope county in Ess900, and pardoned after having serv- |Ii two months and eight days, by the late Dan W.

UNITED STATES COMMISSIONER THE VICTIM OF AUTO ACCIDENT
James Coates of Little Rock Killed by Automobile Driven by w. T.
 Mccoy.
From the Arkansas Gazette.

From the Arkansas Gazette.
 Little Rock, Jan. 14.-Judge James Coates, United States commissioner, and former Pulaski county judge, was fatally injured at 6:30 o'clock last night when he was struck by an automobile driven by W. T. Mccoy, at the corner of Third and Gaines streets. Judge Coates died 30 min utes after the accident at St. Vim cents Inirmary, from internal hem orrhage. Mccoy, who is a traveling salesman, living at 1518 Gaines street, was arrested at the infrmary, where he had rushed with Judge Coates, following the accident. He was arrested by Motorcycle Sergeant Wright on charge of manslaughter and was released on s1 900 bond.
 It was believed that Judge Coates was blinded by the bright lights on an automobile going west on Third street and stepped in front of the Ford car driven by Mccoy, who was going south on Gaines street.
 Mr. Mccoy was deeply affected and t was with difficulty that he told of the accident. He was very nervous and expressed deep sympathy for his victim.

Toppinist, Wash, Jan. 5, 1922.

Toppinist, Wash, Jan. 5, 1922. Editor Mena Star, Mena, Ark.
 Dear Sir:-Thru relative of mine living in your county, l received a copy of your paper issued December 29, which contained matter that in- terested me greatly. 1 was particu- larly interested in the write-up of of early history in your county. I am sure, however, that your informant is mistaken as to the time of one of the occurrences.
 1 refer to the hanging of the man, Fisher, which he places before the war. was a very small boy at that time. 1 remember hearing of the hanging, but don't remember any, thing about the time of it, but the first school I ever attended was taught by this same Fisher. The school was in an old log cabin just on top of the hill west of the Keever place. It was owned at that time by a MT. Clark. This must have been in 1862 It could not have been earlier than '61.
 It seems to me that Fisher was a decided blond, red-headed and red VAAohSAos 0ulAilS tAAC cluOul UT SOOl after, he married a girl in the neigh borhood named Fuss Borders, and soon after this met his Waterloo.
 1 was well acquainted with Judge Howell--went to school to him two terms. He was decided believer in the use of the rod. He owned two negro men. l saw him whip one of them once, and l never needed any other argument against human slav- cry.
 did not know John Shultz "set- tled' the Hiram Gam place, tho he may have done so. When 1 can first remember, the place was owned by old Aunty Katy Winton. I think she was John Shultz's aunt. She was quite old and she died along about the close of the war. My father bought the place and we moved onto it in the fall of 1867. We lived there two years, leaving the country in '69.
 Mention was made in your paper of Young Mckinney. All his brothers, older than himself, were my school mates in '67 and 68. Young was at school sometimes, tho 1 think he was too small to attend as student.
 These old happenings are extreme " interesting to me and 1 offer this fact as my only excuse for this screed.
 Wishing my friends, and others. in Polk county a prosperous and happy new year, am yours truly.

USE MISSISSIPPI
 RIVER, SAYS FORD
Would Build Twenty Power Plants on the Big River, Below St. Louis Will Develop Muscle as
 Example.

St. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 13.-The Post Dispatch today published the follow ing special article from it's Washing ton bureau:
 Washington, Jan. 13.--Henry Ford, here to talk to Secretary of War Weeks today about his Muscle Shoals proposition, told the Post Dis patch correspondent in an interview that he regarded the neglect of the power producing possibilities of the Mississippi river as the most waste ful thing in the world.
 "As soon as we get the Muscle Shoals plant going said Ford, "we will turn our attention to convince the government that it ought to make use of the river. We expect to make Muscle Shoals an object lesson"
 Ford said that at least 20 dams for the development of power could be built in the Mississippi, including four or five below St. Louis. He esti- mated there is 400 foot fall between St. Louis and the gulf
 Dams could be built in the Mis- sissippi," he said, that would fur nish power for the lighting, heating and cooking in millions of homes. Not only that but lands would be saved from flooding, and then look at the benefit to transportation. Locks could be operated by machinery in such a way as to greatly facilitate traffic.
 Then think of the valuable fertil- izer that is going to waste, carried down the river from highlands and dumped uselessly into the gulf. The river is carrying this soil away day by day turnout the year--another example of the tremendous waste due to non-development of the river.
 "The Keokuk dam which I under stand, has 40-foot fall, is too high. It floods too much land. Twenty foot dams, series of them would be much better.
 Why" said Ford, eventually the revenue from the power projects on the Mississippi--that one river alone would pay the whole cost of the na- tional government; in other words, 1t would run the United States. 1 don't mean to say it would always do this, for we can't tell how many people will some day be in the United States but it would run the United States as it it today.
 "sThe savings of coal would be al great benefit Every horsepower de- veloped on the river would replace a considerable amount of coal. The en- gineers can tell you just how much. Think of not having to fuss with coall
