CARL BLACKWELL
STILL In JAIL
Refuses To Talk, And 1t Seems
That He Is Not Anxious For
A Trial-Letters Found In
Young Ladies Trunk.

The Oxford Eagle says, Mr.. Carl
Blackwell, charged with arson, who
was placed in the county Jail on Sat
urday, January 7th., is still in Jail
and what can be learned is not par.
ticu ar anxious fof trial.
OF course, it is left with Blackwell
when he shall stand trial. He is en-
tiled to trial and the officers state
that they are ready to bring him in
to court and try the case just when
exer he gets ready for it.
1t is said that several letters were
found in the trunk of Miss. Mary Wit
son, the contents of which are not
made public, but it is said that they
would not do to publish in a news
paper. 1t is not known, however,
whether the letters were written by
Blackwell or not, as they were sign
ed K. X. X. This is a case in which
considerable sensation is looked for
when it goes to trial, it is said.

TO THE TAX PAYERS
OF MISSISSIPPI

Whereas, the people of Mississippi
are groaning under the burden of un-
precedented taxation in our state and
there is no apparent relief from this
burden, and whereas there have been
many county organizations and coun-
ty meetings for the purpose of de-
vising means of aleviating the situa-
ton and many of our best men have
expressed the opinion that there
should be state organization to coun-
teract the influences at work through
out our state to increase rather than
to reduce taxes, now therefore acting
under suggestions coming from diff
ferent parts of the state. and in obe-
dience to the request of the people of
the counties represented by US, q
meeting of the tax payers is hereby
called to be held in the City of Jack
son on February 7th, 1922, at ten
o'clock a. m. for the purpose of organ
izing State tax payers league; and
to take such other actions in regard
to the financial situation of the state
and the various counties therein as
the people in this meeting assembled
NAV determine.
The tax payers of every county in
the state are requested to send de-
legates to this meeting.
All persons who intend to take part
IN this meeting viii please notify r.

are asked to publish this call.

SAYS GROVES HAS
ADMITTED LANDRES
$4,000 ROBBERY
Inspector Griffin Alleges Con.
fession Secured at jackson

The Memphis Commercial Appeal
in Tuesdays Issue says that, Benie
Groves, who is held at Jackson, Miss,
charged with the theft of an automo-
bile and in connection with the dar-
ing robbery of a jewelry shop win
dow, has confessed that he was i'm
plicated in the robbery Nov. 8, Of the
Landres Fur Company, South Main
Street, in which 100000 worth of
furs were obtained. Inspector w. T.
Griffin announced last night.
The confession Griffin says, was
made to him in the presence of Jack
son officers at Jackson. 1t is cor
roborated by the fact that the inspec-
tor recognized Groves several days
after the fur robbery, following the
secovery of the principal part Of the
loot, as one of the men who fed from
an automobile which, according to in
formation which reached the inspec-
tor contained the thieves. The auto
mobile had been driven into a blind
road by detectives in the riot car and
the occupants got out and ran.
Groves gave his name at jackson as
Bennie Young. He is q chauffeur.
According to Griffin he drove "Red"
Harris from Riverside Park down.
town after the Ford payroll holdup
and murders. Groves was convicted
of highway robbery in Memphis in
1919, but was released on parole.
He was arrested at jackson last
Tuesday. A man had smashed the
window of jewlery store, seized a
tray of diamonds valued at SIS, 900 and
had attempted to dash into a waiting
automobile. He was stopped by for
mer service man and fled, pursed by
officers and citizens. Groves, who was
arrested 10 minutes later north of
Jackson, was identified as the man
who. fled, according to the inspector.
The man arrested as the driver of
the automobile gave his name as Ed.
Thomas, 27, of Tallahatchie County,
Miss. He told Inspector Griffin that
he is Rainey Carroll, %, of Memphis.
Carroll has no police record.
Groves and Carroll are held under
$1,000 bail in the Kinds County Jail
for trial in circuit court having
waived preliminary hearing,

new MEN WILL
PUSH OXFORD WELL
The New Concern, Formed in
st. Louis Will Continue The
Project of Putting Down
Well.

The Oxford Paper says, it was an
nounced Friday morning that the new
oil concern, formed in st. Louis, with
Messrs. Kimsey & Cocks at the head
will be ready to. go ahead with the
drilling Of the oil we'll there, and that
very likely the forces will be organ
lied in time to resume work Monday
of this week or at any rate early next
week.
The gentlemen who started the der
rick, it seems has sold out to the new
concern, which is by no means un-
common in wild cat fields. The der
rick is up a considerable hight, but
was stopped during the holidays, dur
ing which time the new deal was
hatched.
Mr.. Pace, it seems had much
trouble in assembling a rig, or secur-
ing one, owing to the fact that nearly
every available rig is engaged in
proven territory, and when he thought
he had secured one it developed later
that there was a hitch in securing il
which could not be overcome.
However, it seems now that the
new men viii 60 right to work and
push developments as rapidly IS pos
sible.
