Night Riders Cause Reign of Terror.
ST. CLAIRESVILLE, Ohio, Sept.
26.—A reign of terror by a band of
citizens calling themselves "Night
Riders" has held sway in Barton, a
village of less than 1,000 population,
near here, for several months, Coun-
ty Prosecutor Paul V. Waddell has
been informed, followiing the indict-
ment and arrest Tuesday of John
Eberhardt, coal mine foreman, on a
charge of riotous conspiracy.
Eberhardt is allleged to have been
the leader of a "night rider" gang,
which is alleged to have attempted to
lynch Mrs. Goldie Wheeler, 21, and
Lester Berry, 18, several nights ago,
after accusing them of improper con-
duct. The two told the Belmont coun-
ty grand jury that they were hanged
to a tree by the necks with only their
toes touching the ground.
Young boys and girls particularly
were said to have been the victims of
the gang.
As a result of the additional infor-
mation given him Tuesday night by
the voluntary witnesses, Prosecutor
Waddell said he expects to obtain the
arrest of at least half a dozen other
Red Ball State Fair Rate.
The Red Ball Bus Line will make
a rate of $4.00 for round trip to Dal-

or 14 persons will be made up for
each trip. Register at Aldriedge

THE FOOTBALL SEASON IS WITH US ONCE AGAIN
Dairy Cattle Judging Content
for Boys to Be Held at State
Fair of Texas
tUVj The Southwest
"""" ern Dairy Associa-
tion announces
Igj that plans are be-
ing formulated for
ja Dairy Cattle
Judging Contest
for Boys to be held
during the South
"iA west Dairy Show
waasAw at the State Fail
of Texas, October 6 to 21.
This will be open to 4-H boys an
students from the states of Texa>
Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas ant
New Mexico, who are barred fron
further judging contests since havinj
represented their sections in state
wide contests in the Agricultural col
lege contests in their respective states
The purpose of the new contest i>
to hold the interest of these juvenile
experts until such time as they arc
ready to enter the Agricultural col-
leges of their states and to further
train boys who have been selected to
represent their states in the National
Dairy Cattle Judging Contest in the
National Dairy Show at Memphis
Tenn., in October.
All breeds will be judged in the
contest and the high man in the con
test as well as the high man in each
individual breed will be awarded a
suitable prize.
State Fair Horse Races and
Horse Show Attracting
Interest
One of the fea-
tures which pleased
a great number of
people at the State
Fair of Texas last
year, was the pro-
gram of horse races
and horse shows.
Interest in the
horse is reviving
throughout the
United States and
nowhere shows greater vitality than
in Texas.
This is true not only as to the sad-
dle horse but as to the work horse as
well. Dobbin is backing right into
tho shafts again. And with thjs re-
vival comes more and more interest
in horse breeding for speed and for
races as trials and proofs of speed.
Therefore, at the State Fair of Tex-
as, Oct. 6 to 21, there will be thirteen
days of horse racing, with even better
and faster ponies than were entered
last year. The track has been im-
proved 100 per cent, the grandstand
remodeled, the space in front of the
stand has been parked and the whole
outlook from the seats has been
changed for the better.
Patrons will be treated to the thrilb
which go with racing; the inspiring
music of the bands, the Hash of col-
ors as the horses parade to the pad-
dock, the murmur of approving voices
as the favorite comes into view, the
suspense at thu start, the roar, "The're
off!" as the ponies leap from the bar-
rier and then the rising tide of excite-
ment as the horses and their riders
fight for the leadership around the
course and up to the finish.
There will be no raccs on Sundaj
afternoons, as those dates have been
assigned to the Horse Shows.
Amusements at State Fair Wili
Be Greater Than Ever
There will be
plenty of fun at
the State Fair of
Texas, Dallas, Oct.
6 to 21, as well as
plenty that will be
instructive. For,
while tho directors
well know that the
main object of a
properly conducted
State Fair is the
improvement of the farm industries,
they realize also that the men, wom-
en and children who attend the Fair
expect to find some amusement as
well. '
They realize also that the entertain-
ment must bo of the very highest
type—clean, moral and elevating. To
find such entertainment and to change
it—better it, if possible—from year to
year, is no child's task. The amuse?
ment world is combed each winter an(f-
spring to find the shows and acts best
suited to State Fair presentation.
This year the directors in charge of
amusements and entertainments have
succeeded beyond the ordinary. Be-
sides the big musical show in the
Auditorium and the daily race pro-
gram, they have provided a really
first-class carnival attraction and
placed it in a permanent setting—a
space through which now runs a con
tinuous paved highway, 25 feet wide,
with the shows and rides on both
sides.
In front of the grand stand each
evening there will be offered a hippo-
drome or open-air circus and dance
review, combined. It will offer the
most thrilling of bareback, trapeze
and bar acts, animal aots of surpris-
ing excellence, tumbling and casting
by world famous acrobats and will
close with a stage show, "The Winter
Garden Revue," an entirely new idea
in open air entertainment. After this
show the entertainment will conclude
with a dazzling display of fireworks.
Besides the above briefly mentioned
attractions there will be dozens_ of
free shows, bands galore, musical
broadcasting and fun enough to en-
gender and sustain "the fair spirit,"
that intangible something which
makes such an event a success.

Picture Show Operator Burned.
SHERMAN, Sept. 26.—Fire, which
broke out at 7 o'clock Wednesday
night in the Lamar Theater, may
cost the life of Dudley Little, projec-
tor operator. It sent Miss Etta Mc-
Duffie, ticket seller, to the hospital
suffering with severe burns about the
face and hands.
The flames started when a film
which was being shown exploded in
the operator's room.
Loss to the building and contents
was estimated at $35,000. There was
little confusion caused by the fire
which followed the explosion, and
none of the spectators were injured.

President to Make Two Addresses.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—Presi-
dent Coolidge expects to deliver ad-
dresses at Fredericksburg, Va., on
October 8, and at Armistice Day cer-
emony November 11.
The scene of the Armistice Day
ceremony has not been decided.
The president has not definitely
accepted invitations to make these
addresses, but he is expected to give
his formal consent shortly.
Raskob Sees 26 Smith States.
NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—Chairman
John J. Raskob of the Democratic
National Committee predicted Wed-
nesday that Governor Smith will
carry 26 states in which four years
ago the combined vote for Davis and
La Follette exceeded that polled by
President Coolidge. He added that
these do not include Massachusetts,
Connecticut, Rhode Island and New
Jersey, from which, he said /'favor-
able reports already have been re-
ceived."
Raskob said that the total electo-
ral votes in the 26 states referred to
is 235. Adding New York's electoral
vote alone, the total is 280, the num-
ber required for election being 266.
Asked about reports that promi-
nent Democrats have appealed to her
superiors to have Mrs. Mabel Walker
Willebrandt, Assistant Attorney Gen-
eral, withdrawn as a Republican
speaker, Raskob said smilingly, "Why
should any Democrat do that?"
Texas has the largest state fair in
the world. In 1927 the attendance
was 1,028,317.
The largest day's attendance at the
State Fair of Texas in 1927 was 209,-
866. This was on the second Sunday
and broke all known records.
Horse racing will be one of the
leading attractions at the State Fair
of Texas, Oct. 6 to 21, 1928, as it was
In 1927.

Moody Sees "Big Democratic Major-
ity in Texas.
AUSTIN, Sept. 26.—Under th?
heading "Dan for Herb—New York
Paper," the Austin American Wed-
nesday morning published a boxed
story from Washington to the effect
that political circules were intereste d
greatly there in an article carried by
the New York Herald-Tribune that
"Texas Expects Moody to Back Hoo-
ver Ticket."
Moody declared the article was un-
fair and shortly before noon wire 1
Ogden Reid, editor of the New York
Herald-Tribune, asking him for a
correction.
"I have sought for your Austin cor-
respondent in vain," he told Reid,
and added: "The report that a
change has come over me is com-
pletely in error, and I am supporting
the Democratic ticket from top to
bottom."
Moody also directed that this mes-
sage be sent to national headquar-
ters of the Democratic party in New
York.
When a correspondent suggested
that a copy be sent to R. B. Creager,
Republican National Committeeman
from Texas, the Governor laughed.
A few days ago Creager in Washing-
ton was quoted as saying that Moo-
dy's attitude was not surprising, and
that he did not se how the Governor
could support Smith.
Another newspaper this morning
carried a Washington story to the
effect that Democratic leaders of
Texas are worried, fearing that it
may go Republican and that these
leaders are suggesting to the Na-
tional Democratic Committee that
they call in prominent Texas citizens
who are campaigning in other states
so that they may campaign here.
"I doubt very much,'' Moody said,
"if there is any basis for such fepr
or that the Democratic leaders are
worried. I feel confident that the
Democratic ticket will carry Texas
by a majority of at least 100,000."
