Special to Ths Observer. Shelby, April 21. Congressman E. T. Webb returned to Washington this afternoon. He spent the past week st home with his little daughter, who has been critically 111 and is still sick, but now considered out of danger. The judiciary committee of the House, of which Mr. Webb is a mem ber, is exppcted to take a vote on the Appalachian park bill to-morrow. Mr. Webb in greatly Interested In this bill and' exacts to reach Washing ton In time to meet with the commit tee. He la still-hopeful of a favor able report from the judiciary com mittee, which is only considering the constitutionality of the bill. He thinks that a majority of the com mittee will hold that the Federal gov ernment has the right to acquire and hold as a rcf rvullon such lands as are nceary to protect the water flow of navigable streams, when such lands are mors useful for that pur-post- than arty other. He does not think thut tle committee will hold that the Federal governnent haa the right to acquire lands within a sov ereign -State and bold same for park purposes or -to preserve' timber. - Vet the. udvueutes of the bill claim that it Is necessary for the government to acquire the land affected" by" the' bill and preserve the timber as a pro tection to the great -rivers of the country and thus prevent the filling up of the nnviahl! streams. If it ih held that the government has the riaht to aroulre and hold the lands of a Htutf as a protertlon to the naviga ble streams. It will practically have the same effect as If held to be con stitutional to acquire the same land for park purposes. If a report to this effect Is made, as Mr. etip con fidently expect, the bill will tnen g back to the proper committee to be considered upon Its merits. THKKE GEOGRAPHY PICTCRES.

Kitchln. in Speaking at Monroe, Delivers His Usual Political Speech of Abuse and Personalities, Special to The Observer. Monroe, April 21, Mr. W. W. Kitchln addressed a very large au dience In the court house last night on the issues of tho gubernatorial campaign. The crowd that heard him was the largest that has turned out to hear a political speech-at this place in several years, but it was composed of adherents ot Messrs. Craig and Home as well as of the speaker. The speech waj In nearly all respects the same as Mr. Kltchin has been deliver ing since he began his campaign, ex cept that he made but two direct ref erences to The Charlotte Observer, and one was to correct an error which he said was mad" in The Observer's report of his speech at Charlotte' last Friday night. He said the report made, him say that he. was In favor of regulating trusts, when he had-lrled to make it plain to his Charlotte au dience that he did not believe trusts could be regulated at all. (In a con versation, prior to the speech-bare, Mr. Kitehlh said that by "trusts" he meant private monopolies, and that he did not believe they could be reg ulated any more than burglary could be), - , He told his hearers -to place no re liance on tho newspaper reports of re sults in the western primaries as an Ind Ication of his western -opponent's strength. "They have been holding them early," he declared, "in order to mislead, the people. When we get away from them, and out of the In fluence of The Charlotte Observer, there'll he, a different tale to tell. The people of this State are greater than the papers, or the railroads, or the huvwa of the ring." In conclusion he begged his hearers to take , nothing they heard about -him' from his ene mies or from hostile newspapers. "If you want to know about me, write to me or my friends." The personal note was sounded all through the speech, which, the speak er said, was made necessary by the fact that his opponents' managers made this a campaign of personali ties, and he told of some one coming to . him after his speech at Rocking ham and, saying. "Your speech would have been better if it had not been so egotlsUoal." Mr. Frank Armfletd. f the local bar. Introduced the speaker of the evening, saying that he1 was for Mr. Kltchin because he believed that Mr. Kitchln was for the people.-- Malaria Causes Ioe of Appetite, The Old Standard GROVE'S TASTE LESS CHILL, TONIC drives out, ma laria and builds tip the system.

Solicitor Will Not Ask First Degree Verdict in Case of Jim Frady, Who Slew Parris Sumner Three Boys Who Stole Horses Kent to the Pen Joe Lance's Trial This Week. Special to The Observer. i , Axhville, April 21. Jim Frady, in the Buncombe county jail charged wltlh the murder of Parris Sumner In Limestone township several weeks ago, will not be tried for hla life. In Superior Court yesterday afternoon Frady was formally arraigned and the trial set for. Thursday, but the solicit or announced that the State, would not ask for a verdict of murder In the first degree. This announcement came a sa surprise, inasmuch as the evidence tends to show that Frady lay in wait for Sumner and killed him without warning. He pleads the "unwritten law" saying that he was justified; that the relations between Sumner and Mrs. Frady, hla wife, were Improper. The "unwritten"-law will not. however, be pleaded entire ly at the trial. It Is said that self defense and temporary, insanity will be the pleas of the defendant. Frady, after kMllng Sumner, walked to Ashe vllle. a distance of eight miles, and going to the county jail demanded ad mittance. Much Interest haa been aroused over the approaching trial by reason of the extensive kinship of the defendant and the deceased In the county. Judge Peebles yesterday sentenced throe - horse thieves to-the peniten tiary. The prisoners, all boys, their ages ranging from IS to 0 years, sought to have their sentences reduc ed by telling the Judge that in taking the three horses from stables of cit izens, in the Reems creek section of the county they were only "funalng;" that they intended to return the ani mals. Judge Peebles told them that it was a poor sort of a Joke. He gave two of the men 10 years each In the penitentiary and the third, a lad of It years old, 5 years. The court declared that It was dealing leniently with the defendants; that they properly deserved C9 years each. One of the most Important trials set for this term of court Is that of Joe Lance, charged with the killing of Alma Green near Arden. Young Lsnce l now out on bond 'COTTON.
