Since arrangements have been
made for the completion of the i'm
proved roads to the south, west and
north borders Of the county from
McConnelsville, it looks to us that
the next move should be to complete
some kind of an improved road to
the eastern border of the county.
The county already has an outlet
during the time of bad roads, by
way of the river and railroad, while
the depiZens of eastern Morgan must
either wade through the mud or
stay at home. We as a class usual
ly pay our taxes when the time ar
rives, and we are assisting in build
ing the roads in other directions.
Therefore we are expecting those in
authority to look after our inter-
ests without our having. to build our
own connecting link.

adventures probably reached
the present site Of Memphis on
the Mississippi. The French
under La Sale built a fort here
about 1882. The English also
laid claim to this territory, In
ciuding 1t in the grant to North
Carolina. It was not until ITO
that the first permanent settle
ment was made. by James Rob
ertson and this was coon fol-
lowed by many other settlers
from North Carolina. They
formed what they called the
Washington district, but this
was short lived as 1t was
promptly annexed to North
Carolina. In 1884 the inhabi-
tants, indignant over North Car
olina's attitude toward them,
declared their independence and
formed the State of Franklin
or Frankland. AS this .seces-
sion was not countenanced by
North Carolina, for number
of years a state Of confusion
existed with two sets of officers
trying to govern. Meanwhile
the settlement suffered severely
from hostile Indians and from
the Spanish, who still held Lou
isiana, and controlled the Mis-
sissipp: river. In 1890 North
Carolina finally ceded this ter
ritory to the United States. By
1896 the population had In
creased to over 10000, so Ten
nessee was admitted as the Six
teenth state of the Union.
At the outbreak of the Civil
war, Tennessee joined the Con-
federacy. In 1866, when the
state was readmitted to the Un-
ion, there was much disorder
during the reconstruction period.
This led to the formation of the
Ku Klux Klan, tie influence of
which quickly spread through
out the Southern states This
secret organization took into
its own hands tie suppress
sion of crime and the admin
istration of justice.

DOHENY LEASES
by United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, July 21.-OctO
Der 20 was today set as a tentative
' date for opening the trial in which
the Elk Hill naval reserve oil leases
granted to Edwin l.. Doheny and his
Pan American Petroleum corpora
ton by former Secretary of the In
terror Albert B. Fall.
Criminal cases which will keep
the local federal court busy through
September forced Judge Mccormick
to deny the motion of Atlee Pome
rene, special government counsel,
that the oil lease suit be opened
September =. t.E5 n
The delay is considered victory
for the defense, as Doheny's attOr-
neys urged a late date for the trial.
POmerene announced that he will
be in Cheyenne, Wyo., the early part
of October, trying the government s
suit to break the Teapot Dome leases
given Harry +. Sinclair. He said
October 20 is the earliest possible
date in that month he could come
to Los Angeles for the Doheny trial.
Attorney Charles Wellporne, one of
Doheny's counsel, stated that his
client will be in Washington in De-
tober, where he will face criminal
action resulting from the federal
grand jury's recent indictment.
AS result, although October 20
was designated for the local suits,
the whole matter was left more or
less in the air, with possibility
another date may be set later.
