City Court Polk County, July Term, 1907, To the Defendant, Roekmart Mer cantile Company: The plaintiff In the above stated case having filed an of Polk county, and must he driven affidavit pursuant to section 1902 of County rommlHslonorH Name Popular Citizen for Temporary Comity Treasurer. The County Commissioners held an Important and busy session Monday, deposing of several public matters. The deuth of County Treasurer W. Reeves created a vacancy In that Important office, and the Board wisely decided to appoint a man to that position temporarily who was at once familiar with the county’s affairs. Their choice accordingly fell unani mously on Col. J. C. Walker, the ef ficient and popular clerk of the Board, and he was selected to fill the office of County Treasurer until his success or was elected by the people and qual ified. The Commissioners desired to a- vold anything like preferment among any prospective candidates by select ing anyone whose name had In any way been connected with that vacan cy. July 10th was first thought to be a time suitable for a special elec tion, but after considering the situa tion In all Its phases, the Commission era prudently deferred the date un til the Democratic White Primary Committee acted on the matter. As the remains of Mr. Reeves were laid to rest Tuesday and ns Chairman W. J. IlarrlH, of the County Commit tee, Is out of the city, nothing has so far been done. Until the committee acts In the matter, there will be no election called. But the names of several clever citizens have been men tioned In connection therewith, and It now looks as If there might be six or sevon candidates. The Commissioners decided to erect a steel bridge across Hill’s creek in the east end of the county, and bids are advertised for this week. ‘ A toilet room has long been a necessity at the Court House, and has been recommended repeatedly by various grand Juries. The Board has at last gone to work in earnest on this public convenience, and a room with proper sanitary equipment will be erected at once. Bids are called for by the Commissioners. That retaining wall around the Court House square—so loug needed- and so much discussed—is among the early possibilities of the future. It Is said that just as soon as the Com missioners place this protection a- round the lot, the Daughters of Con federacy will go to work to beautify the grounds around the monument. Webster's Compliment. While It Is well known that Daniel Webster In speaking of General Tay lor’s cuudldaey for the office of presi dent pronounced It M a nomination not fit to be made.” he never failed # to do Justice to the general’s military abil ities and eminent service In the field. On one occasion he paid the old sol dier a delicate and well deserved com pliment. Genernl Taylor was com- plulnlug of the crowd# of people who dully besieged him soon after bis as- cesslou to the presidency. ’’They Interfere.” be said, "with my official engagements and violate my domestic retirement, but still I do not wish to turn my bark upon my friends." "Y'ou never did upon your enemies, general,” Mr. Webster lustantly re plied.
