JASSY, Rumania. Oct. (By mpail).
Rumania's agrarian reform act giving
5,000,000 acres of state, Institutional
and private lands to the pleasants, has
been In operation a year and has
brought about a degree of contentment
and satisfaction among the population
heretofore unknown. For the first
time in Rumania’s history the peasants
have been given outright ownership of
land. King Ferdinand wae the first
to give up a part of his large land
holdings to the people.
The expropriation of large private
estates by the government did not
please the proprietor classes, but it has
had a steadying influence upon the
temper and spirit of the people, who
now have little sympathy for bolshevist
doctrines. Nearly 85 per cent 01 the

GAINESVILLE, Texas, Oct. 30.
More than 10,000 rat tails, or
enough to form a line nearly a
third of a mile long, have been
accumulated by the Gainesville
Chamber of Commerce as the re-
sult of a rat killing campaign
which just has ended in this
county. Farmers and business
men say that it is impossible to
estimate the amount of property
saved by the wholesale desirue-
tion of these pests.
The campaign was to have
lasted a week longer, but when
recent rains prevented farmers
and their helpers from doing
field work and permitted them
to engage in rat killing, the
bounty mony offered by the Ro-
tary Club quickly was exhausted.

WASHINGTON, Oct. M.— Unsettled
weather election day east of the Mis*
sinnippi river and generally fair
weather west of the river, except in
the North Pacitie states, was forecast
todsy by the westher bureau in its
regular weekly report.
The forecaster said a storm now
over Arizonn probably would cross th*
Missisaippi river tomorrow snd be over
the enstern hslf of the country Mon-
day. It wss stated that this storm
might cause rains Tuesday over the
eastern half of the country as well as
In the upper Missimippi and lower

Th* prediction* for the week begin-
ning Monday were:
West Gulf States: Unsettled and
rain at beginniag of week, followed by
generally fair and cool weather with
frosts In the interior.
Upper Mimsimsippi and lower Mis-

tatlon early today waa that the jury
would have the case by midnight to-

the jury begins deliberations was or-
dered by Judge Ptppen.
Charlion, a prominent young attor-
ney. was th* last witness called by the
deense last night. He described his
professions! relations with Eubank, a
well known business man, and declared
he fired the shots that ended Eubank*
Ilf* hist June 2* In the belief that his
own life was endangered. Charlton
testified that Eubank, on the day pre-
vious to the shooting, entered hla
(Charlton's) office and threatened the
defendant’s life because the latter had
sued Eubank for 1250 attorney's fees.
Early on June 23 Charlton testified
he entered Eubank's orfice to obtain
some papers from a safe. All the oecu-
panta of the building used thia aafc.
he said. Eubank, the defendant testi-
fied. denied the right of Charlton to
enter his office. A quarrel followed,
he continued, snd Eubank suddenly
opened a drawer in his desk.
"As I saw the drawer start to open,"
Charlton said. "I jerked out my pistol
snd began firing."
Under cross-examination Charlton
admitted Eubank waa sitting down
when he fired tba first shot, but he
said he believed th* latter was reach-
ing in th* drawer for a gun.

passed by an atrirmative vote of those
present with th* exception of E. A.
Murchison, who did not vote, seems
to be th* final answer of the school
board to the Austin Teachers’ Asno-
cis tion:
"Resolved, by the board of trustees,
that we do not think it wise at this
time to approprtate additional funde
for teachers' sslaries. snd lb* reasons
for this sre set out In a atatement
prepared by the board for publication
Hundsy morning, and the president la
directed to notify the chairman of the
executive committee of the Teachers’
Assoclation of this action, snd th* mi-

copy of this statement."
A statement had been prepared by
the Austin school board. indicating in-
erease of salaries made to date, to-
gether with approximated receipts and
disbursements for the present year.
Murchison’e Resolutione
E A Murchison, member of the board
of trustees, offered two resolutions st
Friday’s meeting, both of which were
voted down. He first offered s reso-
lution to grant 114,440 additional pay
for teachers and janitor*, same to be
equitably apportioned. When this reso-

his mecond resolution, which provided
thst $8000 he granted teacher* and

to carry alec, after which the J. H. W.

was favorably voted on.
It ehouid be stated that Mr. Wil-
