Two Shot At Holiness Meeting Last Sunday Night. Not Seriously Injured. Arlie Brown, son of W.D. Brown, and Jessie Anderson, who just recently moved to this city, were shot by Lem Hignight of Danville last Sunday night just as they stopped from the door of the Holiness Church, on Broadway St. Neither were seriously injured. Officers had Hignight arrested in Danville Tuesday. Young Brown was on his way home and dropped by the meeting. Just as he walked up to the door of the church Anderson came out. He heard some one behind him say, "here comes that fellow now," and about that time a shot rang out. Anderson hid behind Brown, it is said, and as the firing continued both Brown and Anderson received wounds in the leg. Neither of them were armed. Mr. Brown did not know he was shot until he was nearly home. He was taken to the hospital where the wound was dressed. Hignight says he shot in self defense. He says he did not intend to shoot Brown, but was after Anderson. The grand jury now in session indicted Hignight. Tipped for Governor of Philippine Islands is Col. Chas. H. Morrow. The Danville Advocate prints the following story that will be read with interest here: Information has reached Danville, via the Philippine Islands, that the knowing ones in the Islands are expecting that Col. Charles Morrow, of Kentucky, a brother to Governor Edwin P. Morrow, will be appointed Governor General of the Islands. Col. Morrow has seen much service since he entered the war department. He fought in the Spanish-American war in Cuba, later on he fought throughout the Philippines Islands and during the last world war he was at the head of a regiment in Siberia. Col. Morrow is admirably qualified for the above position and his many admiring friends in Kentucky would hail with gladness his appointment to that new post. The position pays (?) per annum, besides many perquisites, among which is a wonderful home in Manila to reside. Big Honor For John Cooper. Is Elected Captain of Yale Basketball Team. John Cooper, son of Judge and Mrs. J.S. Cooper, has been elected Captain of the Yale basketball team for next year. This news was contained in dispatches in Sunday's papers. John was one of the star players on this year's team and made quite a reputation for himself. At the election of the Captain he was the unanimous choice of his team mates. This is one of the greatest honors that can come to a student during his college life. This is John's second year at Yale and he is one of the most popular students in the institution. He was a member of the football team and is also manager of the track team. John received his early athletic training under Coach Paul Dexheimer. He was one of the stars on the Somerset High School eleven and was also a good basketball player. Friends here are delighted to know that he has been given this high honor by his teammates at the Univ. Making Good. The following article from the Stanford Interior Journal about Miss Katherine Warren will be read with interest here where Miss Warren is well known. She worked for the present editor of The Journal for several years and we are glad to know that she is making good in the business world: Miss Katherine Warren, daughter of Judge and Mrs. Walter Warren, of this city, who has been advertising manager of the Weis Manufacturing Company at Monroe, Mich., for the past three years, has handed in her resignation to take effect May 1st, when she will go to San Diego, Calif., and take up the work of scenario writing. She will be associated with one of the big movie concerns of the Western city. In a letter to the editor of this paper Miss Warren says she will remain in San Diego during the coming summer and in the early fall sail for Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, and Japan. She says she leaves the Weis Mfg. Co., with sincere regret, for "they have been splendid to me," to quote her exactly. The Interior Journal is delighted at the advancement of this talented young woman, who begun her first work as typesetter in this office. We expect to hear further big things from Miss Warren, who is remembered here by a large circle of friends. Busy at Work. The grand jury is busy this week winding up their work and it is likely they will adjourn either this week or the first of next. About three hundred indictments have been returned so far. This grand jury has done a wonderful work and with a few more like it the law violators will soon find out that they can not get by. In Session. The County Board of Tax Supervisors are in session at the Courthouse this week. The board is composed of J.T. Weddle, Chas. H. Cundiff, C.P. Garner, Jas. T. Blankenship, John L. Price, J.C. Stallard and Miss Gertrude Barnett. The assessed valuation of property in Pulaski County is about three million dollars less than what it should be. There is no one but who will agree that Pulaski County should have an assessed valuation of at least $12,000,000. There is said to be hundreds of people in the county who never list any property and have gotten by with it for years. Fireman Killed. J.F. Brock, a fireman on the Southern Railway, was accidentally killed at Helenwood, Tenn., Tuesday night while attempting to board a freight train. Mr. Brock had been to Helenwood to attend court and desiring to get home he caught a freight train that was passing north. He lost his hat and got off to get it when he slipped and was thrown under the wheels. He lived at Danville. Suspended. Mayor Cruse suspended Policeman Silas West this week for disobeying orders. The Mayor says that Mr. West was instructed not to leave the city while he was on duty and that he had been away on several occasions. Mr. West has taken an active part in moonshine raids and he left the city to accompany federal officers on these raids. Four Homes Entered By Burglars Tuesday Night. Bloodhounds Are Sent For. Burglars entered four residences in Somerset Tuesday night but only secured loot in one of them. At the home of Elmer Hughes they gained entrance through a window and carried away his trousers which contained about $40.00. The trousers were located by the police Wednesday morning in a nearby field. The other residences entered were those of Mrs. Lula Singleton, W.M. Doyle, and S.M. Catching. Here the intruders were frightened away before they gained entrance to the homes. Bloodhounds were sent for and trailed the burglars to the railroad tracks near Ferguson. It is thought they caught a freight train at this point. Officers should be on the lookout each night for suspicious characters and run them in. Somerset has been very fortunate to escape the crime wave that has been sweeping over the country. Are Promoted. Mrs. George Smith received word from her son, Lieut. Chas. Smith, that he had been promoted to a First Lieutenant. He also stated that Lieut. Jake Bethurum had been made a Captain.

I wish to express my thanks and appreciation to my many friends and neighbors for their help with me for a bridge to expand Pitman Creek at the Elihu Ford. Although I made my fight unselfishly and non-politically, selfishness and politics have made its appearance against me when myself and other citizens of my neighborhood with the County Judge and members of the Fiscal Court were looking over the situation of the ford at Elihu. We people are proud to state that we did not want politics but we wanted a bridge so located as to accommodate all us people south of Pitman Creek. I wish further to state that we people have been branded as a bunch of mast feds living on a pile of rocks and that we were not paying any taxes and that we were not entitled to any improved roads or any bridges, I wish to state in behalf of my fellow neighbors that we are more than willing to show our tax receipts with these people who live north of Pitman Creek who are branding us as acorn eaters, and although we may live in a rough and rugged district of our county and even if we are compelled to punch four mules to get over some of our roads to our County Seat with a common two horse load that we are entitled to some consideration from our County Officials. I am sadly compelled to state, fellow neighbors and friends, that we received no consideration whatsoever from the court, not even a hand raised for our needs by a single member of the court, although they made an order for two bridges, first one to be erected at Cabin Hollow out of the 1921 funds and the second one to be erected at the Elihu ford out of the 1922 funds, which I am sure, you will see why they passed this order as we all know that the present members of the Fiscal Court cannot say as to what the funds of our next Fiscal Court can be used, although I put our petition before the court in a mannerly, legitimate way, it received no consideration in the least. Fellow neighbors and friends, this is convincing to all of us that these fellows who come along with a mouth full of sugar and loving promises for our votes only ends up with a stab in the back as their appreciation; this is also convincing to us that we need men in office that has a sawlog for a backbone and who is not afraid to stand out openly for the majority of the people's benefit and do what is best for the greatest number of people in place of being controlled by a few buncombe politicians that only ends up in treating us with ignorance in order to handle things to their own advantage, but I am sure they have acted very unwise in this instance. I wish to state in behalf of myself that there is nothing of more enjoyment to me than rambling along the Cumberland with my reel and pole, coming in contact with the greatness of God's nature and God's people, acorn eaters as they call us, and revel with it all as I have always found these people true blue, loyal to their word, loyal to their friend, loyal to their party, and that they want loyal officials loyal to their purposes. As for myself being an acorn eater, I own up to the goods. I do eat a few acorns unless mast fails but I mix a little polk salt and hog jaw with them and somehow I believe that is the reason that I am in such good standing, however, dear friends, by investigation you will find that I have always been a law abiding, tax paying citizen, standing openly for the welfare and upbuilding of the community in which I have resided, and making an honest living by running an honest business. As to my ancestors, my Grandfather Andrew fought under General Grant, I have an uncle, Will H. Wynn, buried in the National Cemetery at Nancy, this county, grave No. 600; also an uncle, George Wynn, lying in the National Cemetery at New Albany, Ind., both dying in honor for their country during the Civil War. My father, J.L. Wynn, who resides in Ferguson, has spent several of his late years in the upbuilding and improving of this beautiful young township, and I am willing to go the limit for the upbuilding and improvement of ever, I am going to leave it in the hands of the people of my magisterial district to judge the tree by its fruit. Further and in conclusion, I wish to invite the ones that are calling us people down around Cedar Grove acorn eaters to come down and eat a few acorns, hog jaw and polk salt and get a few seed ticks on you and perhaps you will be more acquainted as the dire needs of the mast feds. Yours respectfully, G.A. Wynn. Wynn Announces. Mr. George A. Wynn of Elihu, a popular young Republican, has announced for Magistrate for the Seventh Magisterial District. Mr. Wynn is a hustling young business man and has been engaged in the coal mining, mercantile and milling business. He is a thorough business man and would make a splendid member of the county's official family. He is the son of Mr. J.L. Wynne of Luretha. Mr. Wynne is a believer in better roads and the wise and economical expenditure of money. The people of his district would be well looked after while he is in office. He asks the consideration of the voters of his district and promises to faithfully perform his duties. Spring Here. Monday, March 21st, was the first day of spring and it was a real summer day.
