ASHER’S PROPOSED SEWER
SYSTEM HELD IN COURT
ANOTHER BLOW FID
AT LIQUOR CONSUMERS
1]exas Solon Wants Bill Enacted
that Will Hold Liquor
Buyers Guilty
WASHINGTON (Special)— Of-
fering j bill to make buyers of
liquor equally guilty with the
manufacturers and sellers, Sena-
tor Sheppard, democrat, Texas, in-
itiated today what he called the
“last step” for prohibition en-
forcement.
“This will make prohibition
complete,” observed the Texan,
who ten years ago sponsored and
obtained the eighteenth amend-
ment to the constitution prohibit-
ing the sale or manufacture of
liquor.
“It is the last step in the nat-
ional legislative movement which
began in December, 1913.” he said
Saying he was moved by “gen-
eral opinion” among prohibition-
ists and a court decision holding
that the buyer of liquor cannot
be punished, Sheppard brought
forward the proposal that was
dropped when the eighteenth
was on the way toward adoption.
The belief then was that the am-
endment could not be passed with
such a clause in it, the senator
said.
Sheppard told the senate the
court decision which was handed
down at Philiadelphia, halted ‘pro-
gress’ in the direction of forbid-
ding purchase of liquor, and this
fact, together with the “continued
advance of prohibition sentiment
and achievement” made his new
proposal advisable. This bill was
referred to the judiciary com-
mittee without a debate.
Among the dry leaders who have
come to his support, Sheppard
named Bishop Cannon of the
Methodist Episcopal church, south,
long one of the most aggressive
advocates of the prohibition law.
Cannon last week suggested sucli
as was proposed by the Texan.
Sheppard is confident that act-
ion on his bill, which would be
amended to the Volstead act, will
be taken at the coming session of
congress.

EARLSBORO IN
MONEY IS CLAIM
OWNBY DODGES ISSUE
Tlo the Editor of the Shawnee
Morning News:
Attention has been called to the
article appearing in your paper
.°S5SJL 'SfJWNKS sis***
Asher’s proposed sewer sys-
tem will have to run the gaunt-
let of the courts, it was indicated
this week, when several properly
owners applied for a restraining
order to prevent the sale of bonds
recently voted.
A temporary restraining order
was issued, returnable October
19th. In the petition citizens op-
posed to the issue set up the al-
legation that there were less than
50 qualified tax paying voters in
the town and that the alleged
total of 48 votes cast in favor
of the bonded indebtedness were
not qualified to vote at such el-
ection.
The allegation will be contested.
The burden will be upon the chief
petitioner, Mr. Weldon, to prove
that there were illegal votes cast
and to identify them in court.
This will lie most difficult. The
election judges were especially
careful in granting permission to
vote and several were challeng-
ed and refused when unable to
present evidence that they were
tax-payers within the year pre-
vious.
It is likely that the bond ad-
vocates will seek to throw out
the petition on a demurer.
In the event the action is not
made permanent, another effort
will be made, it is said, to tie
up the bond issue.
Opponents declare that the sta-
tus of Asher today is not what is
was when the council ordered the
election, and that the burden
would be upon a limited nnmber
of property owners.
The progressive advocates of
sewers in Asher are admittedly
worried over the situation.
City Manager Callaway says:
“Ask Tom Waldrop if he wants
his _ $14.38 tax scattered over a
period of 20 or 25 years ? He
knows he doesn’t. And neither do
any of those other fellows who
are fighting the levy.”
ATTEND ROAD MEET
Warrants are being issued to
cover the amount of prizes award-
ed at the county township fairs
and they will be mailed out as
soon as the final approval is giv-
en the county budget, according
to James Lawrence, county agent.
Approval of the county is ex-
pected to be made at a meeting
of the county excise board on
October 16th. The warrants can
be drawn on the fair fund, how-
ever without the usual wait of
forty days, officials said.
While the prize winners checks
are not so large this year there
are more in number because of
I the eight township fairs were
held in place of a county fajr as
was the custom before this year,
Lawrence says.
SAME OLD COMMISSION
The Southwest Telephone Com-
pany of Dallas, Texas, at 3901
Main Street, own the Tecumseh
Telephone Exchance. They charge
$3.00 per month for a telephone
in Tecumseh and $2.25 in Asher.
For awhile this concern (which
spends its money in Texas) sent
out a statement, itemized of long
distance calls. Now, they have
stopped even doing that and on
the bill state, “Exchange service
month of October, 1929, $3,00.
Toll Service Charges (staetment
herewith) $5.75" but no state-
ment is enclosed.
They might as well say toll
service charges $15.00. We would
at least like to see a bill item-
ized, and if someone has been
talking over our phone, long dis-
tance, at least stop it. This tele-
phone company is no exception to
the rule, they can get by with
murder under the present corpor-
ation commission. No wonder
they can erect $1,500,000 buildings
in the larger cities. With so
many “auditors” on the state pay
roll in the corporation depart-
ment of state looks like one of
then: could be spared long enough
to investigate Tulsa’s complaint
against the Southwest Bell Tele-
phone Company. As we have of-
ten said before, “Comporatoin
Commission is right. It repre-1
sents and protects the corpora-
tions— Will the people ever
catch on ?
Washington D. C., October 9,—
The United States Civil Service
Commission has announced it will
receive applications until Novem-
ber 2, 1929, for certain tempo-
rary positions in the Bureau of
the Census in Washington, D. C.,
in connection with the Fifteenth
Decennial Census.
The positoins for which exam-
inations are to be held are jun-
ior clerk, junior calculating mach-
ine operator, and junior tabulat-
ing machine operator, with an en-
trance salary of $1,440 a year,
and under card-punch operator
with an entrance salary of $1,260
a year.
These examinations are apen
to ail citizens of the United
States, both men and women, who
meet the requirements.
It is expected that a large num-
ber of appointments will be
made. The length of service will
probably range from one to two
years in most cases but in no
case will it extend beyond Dec-
ember 31, 1932.
Full information regarding
these examinations can be ob-
tained from the United States Ci-
vil Service Commission, Washing-
ton, D. C. or from the secretary
of the United States Civil Board
at the office or customhouse in
any city.

of Earlsboro, are getting
boiled” now since the oil plav
on the townsite has grown hotter
each week. What few blocks that
are not already leased, are held
for good sized bonuses, also near-
ly all carry a drilling clause, to
begin operations at once.
From the line of new derricks
that are going up, there is a
strip through the north side of
town which experts claim, is m
the “oil money.” The strip includ-
es the Rock Island depot and all
of the business district.
Noise from the big rotary-
pumps keeps many of the new-
comers awake at night, however,
the residents of the town are get-
ting used to this and say they
have no trouble sleeping. Close
up to one drilling rig in operation
is a sign, “Sleeping Room,” at a
residence.
For a distance of nine miles to
the east of Earlsboro, there is a
string of producing wells, all of
which came as giant producers.
Also on the west ami southwest,
there arc producing veils
Harry A’fray and others who
own 80 acres adjoining the west
side of the Earlsboro townsite,
announce that they are letting
a drilling contract for four wells
which are to start at once. This
lease is an offset to the Twin
States production in the north
half of NW 1-4 of section 7-7-4,

City councilmen at Earlsboro,
will not place any hazards in
the way of those who want to
drill for oil on the townsite pro-
viding the property owners do
not object. While no official ac-
tion was taken at the council
meeting held Tuesday night, it
was the sentiment expressed that
all blocks inside the business dis-
trict can he drilled on.
Blocks 22, 23, and 24 face Main
street on the north side. In block
22 is situated the Renfred Hotel.
Half of this block has been un-
der lease for some time to the
Hughes Drilling Co. The well
is to be located 140 feet back of
the building.
In block 23 is situated a num-
ber of retail stores and one of
the theatres, also the building
used for the city hall..
In block 24 is the bank and
other buildings. This block fac-
es the Rock Island railway. In
the rear of this block it is plan-
ned to erect a derrick at once,
since the “onward march” of the
derrick builders is right in line
with the oil play. This block is
nearest to the Freewill Baptist
church yard, where the J. H.
Gwin Drilling Co., is spudding in.

well is an offset to the townsite,

whereby you quote Mr. A. _ J.
Ownby, commissioner of the first
district, as making certain state-
ments relative to the calling of
the election of the five mill levy
for the purpose of building a new
court house; also to your editor-
ial under date of October 5th
touching on the same proposi-
tion.
In these two articles statements
were made which would indicate
that action for calling said elec-
tion was taken in the absence of
Mr. Ownby and that he had no
knowledge whatsoever that said
election was being called.
We assume that your paper ac-
cepted the statement of Mr. Own-
by as being true, and that the
statement in your editorial was
made without further verification
We suggest for your information
that the facts in the case are
as follows:—
On May 21st, 1929, petition was
filed in the office of the County
Clerk by Judge Hal Johnson and
others, urgently requesting thnt
the Board of County Commission-
ers provide funds for building a
new court house. That in accord -
ance with said request the matter
was discussed at that time by the
full board and the petitoin ac-
cepted. The Board decided to pro-
ceed under section 5819, Session
Laws, 1921, and immediately pre-
pared petitions for the citizens
to sign calling for a Bond issue.
four representatives from the city
of Shawnee. Mr. Ownby was
present. The matter was discus:l»
ed, pro and con and was unan:»
mously voted by those present
with the exception of the four
from Shawnee, that a five mill
levy was the best anti most eco-
nomical way or building a Court
House suitable for the needs of
Pottawatomie county.
The resolution was prepared,
and was discussed by Mr. Ownby
and Mr. A. W. Goar, chairman of
the Board, on September 5th,
1929. Mr. Ownby read the reso-
lution carefully and when he had
completed reading it said, “It
looks alright.” “You boys go
ahead.” He then stated he would
not be present the next day, the
day on which the matter was P>
come up for final trial, the 6tb
day of the month being regulai
meetnig day for consideration oi
matters of this nature. Mr. Own-
by left that evening or early the
morning of the 6th, for a trip
to Colorado. His not being pres-
ent at the meeting when the res-
olution was adopted was entirely
of his own choice. He had full
knowledge of the proceedings and
participated in all the proceedings
up to the 6th; and any inferance
that action was taken in such
manner as to prevent his being
present is not in accordance with
the facts in the case.
We desire to state, also, that
prior to that time and about tiv:
time of the first discussion with
reference to the five mill levy,
Mr. Ownby, in company with the
two other commissoiners, went out
upon the Public- Square stepped

the report by Ray Montgomery
who had just returned from Kan-
sas City where a meeting of The
Internation Board of Directors of
the Co-Operative Club was held.
During his visit he met with the
Kansas City, Topeka, and Okla-
homa City clubs and brought back
some real inspiration for the Te-
cumseh club members. Ray ro-
Ownby and several other citizens
were given petition to distribute
in the City of Shawnee, all of
which were returned unsigned, as
were most all of the other peti-
tions distributed throughout the
county, indicating that the citi-
zens of Pottawatomie county did
not favor a bond issue. Since
that time the matter his been dis-
cussed before the full Board of
County Commissioners. Having
failed to get the proper number
of signers on the bond election
petitions, the Board of County
Commissioners, the latter part of
August, proceeded under section
ten, article ten of the Constitu-
tion calling for a special election,
there being present, Goar, Ayers
and Ownby. It was also decided
that it would be a good plan to
invite representative citizens from
various parts of the county to
disccuss the proposition. This
was done and about 100 citizens
representing all parts of the coun-
ty, attended a meeting held in
the District Court room in Te-
cumseh, on the 3rd day of Sep-
tember, 1929. There was a lrage

sibility in the protection of the
records of the county. We are
working for the best interests of
the entire citizenship of the coun-
ty, and are glad that we called
the election for the five mill levy
as that seems to be the wish ol
the majority of the citizens oi
the county. We further state that
the five mill levy will be for om
year only. (It couldn’t be other-
wise, unless the people voted for
another five mill levy) and not
one dime of the proposed five-
mill levy will be spent for pur-
chasing leases and every cent
derived from the levy will be used
for the construction of a Court
House building.
We submit the above that you
may have full knowledge of the
facts.
