There seems 10 be lame place
IN the laws of our copnlry That viii
allow a man like c. E. Rolfc ot
Erie to get up and harangue CROW d
IF igorant and mostly foreign miners
and use his best endeavors 10 incite
them to rebellion and bloodshed by
abusing our governn ent, its courts
and institutions.
If Mr.. Rolfe is not satisfied with
this, The best and lreeest govern
ment on earth, he should .betake
himself to Russia where they deal
with just such indictments in a
summary manner.
Our laws should make such ut
terances as his, as reported by the
press, lreazonable and subject him
. long term of imprisonment.
sae very eniency of this govern
nent in slch matters is source Of
weakness
If Mr.. Role and his foreign as
Dciate coagitstors are net satish d
With this country why do they not
emove at once to those glorious
Id monarchies where things are 50

County. The city tax rate cannot be raised this year In time to meet the ex- traordinary crisis and next year the depreciation of values will offset the raise of the rate to the limit. Recoruse must be had to raise of all iicenses and to the collection of per capita tax. and 1t is doubtful if tzat can be done in time. Besides. no honest man desires kto be unjust to hts neighbor, to connscate his property. The en- forcement of prohibition on January 1 fs confscaffon pure and simple. not on Ky of the property of the l:quor man but of the landlord and the tenant, of the clerk and the mechanic.

IS STILL AT LARGE
OATES SUCCESSFULLY ELUDEs HIS
 PURSUERs.
Adopts Novel Means to Prevent Dogs Trailing Hfm--Fut Turpentsne on
 Shoes and Pepper ID Tracks.

S. S. Oates, the white man who. 1t is alleged, shot Samuel Johnson, magtB- trate. at Rollins. about two weeks ago, has completely outwitted hisl pursuers. according to reports that have reach ed the city. To avoid being trailed by hounds Oates put turpentine on his ehoes anf he has sprinkied pepper in his tracks. The dogs refuse to take the trail and it is reported that eleven of the hounds ur to this time, have been Killed by Oates. Two packs of dogs have been used in his pursuit. It to the x100 reward offered by Mr. Johnson for the arrest of Oates. the State will be called on for an ad- ditionaI reward.
 Oates. 1t is alleged, shot Justice John son when the latter stepped from Q train at Rollins. A number of small shot from an automatic shot gun took effect In the head and shoulders of the magistrate. but he recovered from tho wounds. The trouble, 1t is said. grew out of Oates's belief that Johnson had attempted to procure indictments agains him in PrattviIle for IiQuor. Vf- oiati6ns Oates was employed as an oyesseee on the place of D. 4 E. War ren, at Rollins.
 immediately after the shooting Oates lied to the Warren place. He later SC. cured alhorse and rode over into Cnil ton coulity to the home of his brother. tn-law, man by the pane of RollinS A posse. accompanied by a pack of dogs. was on his trail. It was thought that he was hemmed in at this house but he succeeded in escaping during me night and went fourteen miles to the home of his father. From there 1t vas reported that he went ten miles tc the residence of his sister. After reach. ing his brOther-in-laW's house. tae morse Oates was driving became un- titted for further use and oates foot cd 1t until he arrived at his sisters house, where he secured a mule and escaped further into the wods.
 The irst pack of dogs sent out on the trail gave out and a set Of hounds was sent from Speigner's. MT. Warren recely ed information yesterday from speIgner's that tue dogs would not fol- LOW the traII because Of the pepper and turpentine on the tracks.

a hobby with Alderman Baynard L. Ma

partment was but little better than none
at all. Recently the headquarters nave

equipment.

horses and a man to look after them A

of a proposed driveway that will make

pretty woods in the rear of the plant, ana
then follow up the river margin some
distance, joining a present road about
the east entrance to the campus. In adj
