A aoop KxAMPLr.

The French style of dealing with reckless autoists Is somewhat different from ours, and is likely to be much
 more effective. Paris reports tell us that Elliott Fitch Shepard, son of the late Elliott F. Shepard and the grand
 son of the late William H. Vanderbilt. was sentenced to ninety days in jail and to a series of fines amounting to s4l2o. in Paris. on Thursday. for reck- iessly running an automobile in the streets, at a speed which cost a young girl her life. over whom his vehicle was rushed. He desired the death or no one. but he was regardless of the rights and safety of any who got in his path. He had a fair trial was justly convicted and he has received an ex- emplary sentence.
 In cLnm enting on the case The
 Brooklyn Eagle thinks there VIII pc general satisfaction with this sentence as well as a desire that it shall be fol-
 lowed by like sentences for ike reck-
 lessness in England and the uniteo States. The special attention gwen to
 the fact that this young man IS a reia-
 tive of wealthy and, because wealtny' of conspicuous persons should not DO misunderstood. Unquestionapiy' ms relatives have no fault to find with his treatment under French law, and quite likely they approve of the lesson whicn has been administered to him. They have had more trouble with him than the law itself has had. and he for feited his right to their consideration. long before he came into contact with the law in France. If anything can be of benefit to him, the punishment to which he has been subjected should be. and the prominence which has been given to his case. on the presumption that his relatives have put forth a single effort to save him from merited punishment, is grotesquely incorrect
 Perhaps that feeling of general sat- isfaction" will not xtend to that class of riders Tn the large cities of the North who apparently go on the prin- ciple that streets and highways belong to the automobiles and that others must get out of the way or be run over; but it will be a lesson to others. It Is no hardship on the owners and drivers of these machines. and no discrimina- tion against them that they should be punished, as Shepard was, for reckless speeding. If a man should drive team of horses at twenty-five miles an hour on crowded streets or roads he would be as cuipab1e, in principle, as Is the motorist who goes forty or fifty miles an hour, and we presume no one would doubt that he should be re- strained or punished. Nothing but a criminal sentence. without the alterna- tive of settling it by a fine. will be ef- fective, and the Paris court was really very lenient. The fine, 1t should be un- derstood. was only s120. the other $4,o00 going as damages to the child's parents. Such 6 fine imposed on wealthy mo- torist in this country would have no effect, but that three months in dail will be lesson which even a grandson of Vanderbilt win be apt to remember.

A Dead Ringer Against Newspapers

According to Thh Montgomery Ad- vertisers correspondent at Talladega, where Conner opened up his campaign for Governor, MT. Conner said one thing which Is a dead ringer against the not calculated to make his many friends among the newspaper fra ternfty.
 MT. Conner told of his campaign and some of the charges which were brought against him. and which were published in the newspapers. The correspondent says:
 After recounting their history he said that he had sued a number of the big papers of the State for pub fishing them. but the case had been thrown out because under the libel law of the State they. had not been given five days in which to retract. He declared that if he was elected Governor he would repeal that law"
 The present libel law is recognized generally as one of the best in any State. Newspapers are often liable to err and not know it. Suits are often brought against newspapers when the newspapers conscientiously believed
The Montgomery advertiser., 1905-10-31

that they were publishing facts on- ly. The present law in Alabama gives the newspaper five days to investi- gate matters and publish a retraction was a fairer law to all people con- cerned. If the newspaper does not see fit to retract, then the filing ot the five days notice has no beartng further in the matter Mr. Conner has evidently made a break in this in- stance. Because he failed to file the five days notice with the papers he sued for libel should not make him desire to repeal a good law. That was fault of his own. and not fault of the law.
 Some of Mir. Corners most ardent supporters are editors who fully inc dorse every feature of the libel law

Wants the Whole Bunch.

Not only does Mr. Conner want ta be elected On a rate reform platform, but he wants the Legislature and all State officers elected on the same platform. In other words. he wants the whole bunch" of his way of thinking, and 1t is said that he will oppose the election of any man holding views contrary to his own. Railway rate reform thus seems to be the only thing MT. Conner thinks worth considering by the Leg islature at its next session. We fear that MT. Conner is a one-idea man and therefore not liberal enough in his views to occupy the Governors chair.

Some Explaining May Have to Come.

Candidate Conner may have some "ex- planationing to do of his Talladega announcement. He attacked the pres- ent libel law for one thing, law said to be exceedingly fair and much com mented upon for its merit. and The Tal- ladega Reporter has started the ball rolling by taking MT. Conner to task for 1t. Then there Is that Man Behind the Gun" matter and 'fnyironment" of the opposing candidate that Is going to af- ford his enemies a chance to prick him through his armor of lf-conlplacency. The contest does not start out as if 1t is going to be all one-sided.

 Governor Jeff Davis would not attend a banquet when Powell Clayton was present That was foolish. On such occasions it is not proper to look too closely at the record of the political guests There are people who would not like to be with Governor Davis, but a public banquet is not the place to air that objection. Governor Davis need not have looked at Clayton.

The Park Has Closed

Speaking of Lonesome experiences,
 said a Montgomerian yesterday, "the worst I've had in a long time was the other day when rode out to Electric Park. was reading q paper on the way out and paying attention to what was going on. When I left the heart of the city, know there was a good crowd on the car. Well, | read on without looking out, when suddenly the car stopped. the conductor hopped off and we were in darkness. I asked where we were, not knowing but that we were starting on a 'possurn hunt. The con- ductor very kindly told me 1t was the end of the line. I thought then 1t was a mistake had made, choosing perhaps a wrong car which carried me to a strange part of towl. I was cleared of the illusion. however,. when the trolley was snapped back on the wire and we had some more light. Through the haze of light couh see the park pa vIlion at the end of the line and by this I knew we were where had intended to go. But what vast difference be- tween then and a week before when thousands of electric lights were strung all through the park had never been told that the park had been closed and as I was the only passenger it was naturally Q lones 1nle experience.

A wellknown travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for child or
for an adult, and if fo1 child they
almost invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is no
danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds
and Group it is unsurpassed. For sale
