METROPOLIS WEEKLY GAZETTE HENRY L. JOHNSON NOMINATED PRESIDENT HARDING NAMES GEORGIA MAN RECORDER OF DEEDS National Committeeman From The Peach Tree State Appointed To Former Position. Washington, D. C.—If the United States Senate confirms the nomination sent in by President Harding last week, Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Atlanta, Ga., will be Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia. It is also surmised that Hon. Chas. Cottrell of Toledo, Ohio, may be recommended for Registrar of the Treasury of the United States. These two stalwart Americans and assuite members of the Republican Party are national characters, both having held important positions during the Republican administration of former Presidents Wm Howard Taft and Col Theodore Roosevelt It has been expected daily here that President Harding would make some move in the near future to show just his position with regard to certain positions. It has always been understood that Col. Johnson and Hon. Mr. Cotrell would be taken care of in some manner by the administration force Col. Johnson is a member of the National Republican Committee, having been elected at Chicago in a closely contested fight. He is a recognized leader of the Republican Party from the state of Georgia, while Hon Mr. Cotis is a resident of Ohio, heading from the city of Toledo. He was the former Collector of Revenue, located at Honolulu in the Hawaiian Islands, and has been prominent in Ohio politics for the past twenty five or thirty years. He is a personal friend of Senator Willis and President Harding. Being a native Buckeyan, it is expected that he will either get this position or some other lucrative appointment from the dispenser of patronage. Both men are college graduates, finishing from the best school in the United States. Col. Johnson graduated from the University of Michigan, from whence he received his degree in 1902. Mr. Cottrell finihed from the University of Ohio and posted in the East. He has been connected with all the big campaigns, has held office at the state capitol and was a member of the city council from his own city for years. Col. Johnson stated that he did not feel that there would be very much fight upon him "My life is an open book." he said "The only real enemies I have made were through my stand years ago in connection with the pressing of peonage charges, and this feeling has been largely dissipated by recent disclosures of conditions on the Jasper county murder farm. "It was due to my personal efforts that indictments were returned against James M. Smith, of Oglethorpe, Ga., a millionaire farmer, who later was a candidate for governor in the state primary." Three of Crew Drown when Train Plunges Into Missouri River. St. Joseph, Mo. July 25—The locomotive and eight cars of a Burlington Railroad stock train from St. Joseph to Kansas City plunged into the Missouri River two and one half miles north of Kansas City early today, and 3 members of the train crew were drowhed.

The rails were about three feet from the bank at the point of the cave-in. Seven of the wrecked cars contained hogs, two cattle and one eggs. Animals were scattered about the track when the fall smashed the cars. A professional diver was sent from Kansas City, to make an at tempt at recovering the bodies of the three trainmen. All were from St. Joseph. Notice Notice The 1st Baptist church, Metropolis, has accepted the District S.

LEN SMALL ASSAILED BY POLITICAL ENEMIES There has been a great deal of newspaper talk and political bunk, as to the indictment, arrest and prosecution Gov. Len Small. Most of this "dope" if not all was sensationai in the extreme, for the purpose of selling the papers and embarrass the Governor and cripple his administration in carrying out his preelection pledges made to the people in relieving the poor tax payers against the money barons and the rich tax dodgers of Chicago. He promised in his platform both in the primary and the general election last fall to give them a square deal if elected. the people believed him then, and gave him one of the largest majorities ever received by any Governor of Illinois. The Tribune fought him then, fought him from every angle during the session of the legislature, and is still fighting him. He was prevented from having many of his measures enacted into law by his political foes through the advice of the Tribune and gigantic corporations of Chicago, yet with all the fight that was put against him, Gov. Small. stood like a "Stone Wall." and to the common people of Iliinios several millions of dollars in turning down the Cement Trust, and $7,000,000 by his veto power, and prevented the treasury of Illinois from being looted by the enemies of the people and the Governor. The people had faith in Gov. Small, when he was elected and they still have that faith in his honesty, truthfulness and his sense of duty and fairness to all the people. The court of public opinion is with him, We can readily see that Attorney General Brundage, is sore because the Governor cut down his appropriation of $1,505,700 to $616,100 and thus preventing him from building up a vast political machine. Let's have fair play in the political arena is all asked by the people. The Chicago Tribune has attempted to kill every man politically who they could not control. They have tried to kill "Big Bill" Thompson, and drive him out of politics, but like banco's ghost, he will not down, but is a thorn in their political side. The people are with him. Eikville. Please allow space in your paper to say we are here in a few days meeting, Cod has blessed us in the work so far here, as we have been able to find a few of the Baptist church here and after preaching as times, the church has come together again and said they are yet Baptists, contending for the faith, yes One Lord, One Fsith and One Baptism. So we are still a servant for Christ and preaching the gospel here. Yours for Christ and the work, T. Turner, Dist. Missionary We are pleased to that Missionary has been able to resurrect the church at Elkville, and if he needs any help, call on Revs. Moody and Pruitt, as they are close and will be glad to go to your rescue. No community is complete without a Baptist church. J. B. McCrary. Moderator. State of Illinois, Massac County 98.— In the Circuit Court of said County, Harmon Korte Vs. Valcous K.

A bright-eyed, barefooted, shabby little fellow was working his way through a crowded car, offering his papers in every direction, in a way that showed him well used to the business and of a temperament not easily daunted. The train started while he was making change and the conductor, passing him, laughed. "Caught this time, Joe!" he said, "You'll have to run to Fourteenth St." "Don't care," laughed Joe in return. "I can sell all the way back again." A white-haired old gentleman seemed interested in the boy and questioned him concerning his way of living and his earnings. There was a younger brother to be supported, it appeared. "Jimmy" was lame and "could not earn much himself." "Ah, I see. That makes it hard; you could do better alone." The shabby little figure was erect in a moment and the denial was prompt and somewhat indignant. "No, I couldn't! Jim's somebody to go home to; he's lots of help. What would be the good of havin' luck if nobody was glad? Or of gettin' things if there was nobody to divide with?" "Fourteenth street!" called the conductor, and as the newsboy jumped out into the gathering dusk the old gentleman remarked to nobody in particular: "I've heard many a poorer sermon than that."—Forward Magazine. SOHO MAY BE SWEPT AWAY Picturesque Part of London Scheduled to Yield to the Demand of Commerce. Two picturesque slices of old London, known to tens of thousands of Americans, may soon be scooped away to satisfy the demands of commerce, Soho and the parish of St. Giles—or Seven Dials, as it is better known—are about to begin their passage into history and be converted into the most modern business district of the metropolis, possibly a second city of London. Soho, which probably derived its name from the duke of Monmouth's famous battle-cry "Soho" at Sedgmoor, has experienced many vexilludes of fortune. In the olden days regarded as one of the fashionable quarters of London, it gradually became the home of bohemianism and the haunt of Sam Pepys and Goldsmith. Today its dingy and uninviting streets are lined with French, Italian and Swiss restaurants, where Londoners and visitors may learn what the much-praised foreign cooking really is. The whole district is now almost entirely inhabited by foreigners and is the favorite meeting place of the anarchists of the "tame" variety. For long it was looked upon as the equivalent of the Montmartre, but never at any time has it attained the attractiveness or liveliness of the gay Parisian quarter. "Spirit Message" by Radio. A true story, well known in scientific circles, records the first use of radio-telephone during the war in France. Professor W—— of Yale university, then in the reserve corps, was asked to witness a voice-controlled flight near Romarankin, France, Standing in a hangar on the ground, he placed the receiving instrument to his ear. The voice of an unseen person from the clouds spoke a message. The professor turned pale as he dropped the receiver. "My God," he exclaimed, "that's Prof. Peters! He died nine years ago!" The professor was told that the man speaking was one of the pilots of the 60th squadron. Soon the pilot came to earth and walked into the hangar. He proved to be Prof. Peters' son—Horace Green in Leslie's. Got It Straight. Israel Zangwil occasionally likes to slip among the crowd so that he can find out what they are thinking about his work, and he has never forgotten an occasion on a certain evening. when he did so. It was on the first night of one of his earlier plays. Filled with all a young author's anxiety, he ventured into the gallery in the hope of hearing some compliments. But there was "nothing doing," so he asked one man straight out what he thought of the production. "Well, guy'nor," replied the man, "the leading actor aln't bad"— "Ah, yes." "And the leading lydy, she'll do." "Yes, yes." Valuable Snakes. A nest of snakes, 15 in number, has been given an asylum on a doctor's estate in Woodbury, N. J. The doctor has found that all kinds of crop-destroying insects are eaten by the reptiles. The snakes are about early in the morning, hide at midday and are astir again in the evening. They are of a harmless species, brown in color and are difficult to distinguish unless seen on the move. The snakes prefer to loiter around tomato and cucumber plants, where many grub worms are to be found. Plants over which the snakes have assumed a protectorate are standing unscathed by worms. The snakes have grown several inches since first seen.—Exchange Mme. Nollie Park nt for Mme. C.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE COLORED PEOPLE We wish to say to our people of Massac County, and the surrounding territory thereto. Having been solicited by a number of my people, also encouraged by some of my white friends who wish to see, and help secure employment for all returning soldiers, to enter the Undertaking business. I have finally decided to go into that business, with a view of serving my people, as well as having an employment, feeling that I can give them better service than members of the other race, 'though I am in friendly relation with all the other undertakers, and expect to retain that relationship throughout my business career I am perfectly qualified to give unexcelled service and will guarantee satisfaction. I was born and reared in Metropolis, on 9th and Pearl Sts. Educated in Metroplis Public Schools, graduating from Dunbar High School in 1912. I then entered the Barnes School of Anatomy, Sanatary Science and Embalming, Chicago, Illinois, from which I graduated August 14 1914, from which school I hold a Diploma. We will carry a small line of caskets only, at present, owing to the advance price on these goods, but we have arranged with a large undertaking establishment to furnish us with anything needed on short notice. We have a first class hearse at our command. Calls answered day or night; distance immaterial. We were in the U. S., Service for six months, trying to make this country safe for "Democracy," thereby insuring the colored man an equal opportunity with other races. Phone 229--Ring 3.
