McNairy County independent. (Selmer, McNairy County, Tenn.) 1902-1969, 1922-02-24

Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lam
dis. of Chicago, has at last resign
ed, his resignation effective
March l. He will give his en-
tire time to the interests of major
leaRrae baseball, and the sport in
general. The Judge has been on
the bench since 1905, receiving
his appointment from the late
Theodore Roosevelt, and began
his judicial career when the late
John E. Mccall went on the Fed
eral bench by appointment from
the same president. Theodore
Roosevelt. He was a great Judge,
and in many respects the best
known Of any of them in the ma
ton. His career was more or
less spectacular, but he did what
his conscience approved in the
administration of justice, and
was ever on the side, it seems of
the lowly, and of the unfortunate.
One of the first things he ever
did was to fine the Standard Oil
Company 500, 900, 10000 for vi
olations of the law, and from that
time on was always in the eyes
of the public. He strictly en-
forced the law, and was a terror
to the evil doors of all classes. Z

From dispatches, itwould seem
that even Alabama is solidly for
the Henry Ford proposal as to
Muscle Shoals and against the
proposal of the Alabama Power
Company. The application of
more business and less politics in
this important matter would mean
the acceptance of the proposition
of the Detroit multi-millionalre.

The California murder mystery,
where a man named Taylor was
killed, is not cleared up. A fell
low named Sands has proposed to
tell the authorities about the real
murderer, provided they let him
alone on an embezzlement charge.
He wants to swap work with
them. If they can trade, some
light may be thrown on this kill
ing.

The President has signed the
Capper-V olstead law, which per-
mits and legalizes cooperative
associations of farmers and pro-
ducers for marketing purposes,
and thus exempts them from the
operations of the Sherman anti
trust law. 4"

In, all Official comment the view
that the existing stocks Of coal OF

Mr.. Hoover ID said to believe that di-
rect negotiation between consumers Of
coal and operators of large mining
enterprises still running will ,elimin-
ate the possibility OF any run away
markets."
Some outlines of the tentative poll
cy adopted by the administration
toward the general coal strike also
are becoming visible. Its probable
that within I six weeks OF; some such
period after. satisfactory indications
are giyenfaby the union leaders and
coal mine operators that such a step
would meet success, a. conference
