LIGHT Sentence
CAUSED SURPRISE
MANY FEEL THAT AHRENS WHO
FIRED SHIP SHOULD HAVE
GOTTEN HEAVIER SENTENCE

Among people on the water front
there has been great deal of surprise
expressed over the recent rulings and
sentence given by Judge Robinson In
the case Of c. Ahrens who was con-
victed of attempting to set fire to the
ship Claverdon. The court ruled that
if the jury thought the man had tried
to set fire to the cargo and not the ship
or any part of the ship and not the en-
tire ship it should acquit him. The
jury returned a verdict OF guilty and
the man was given three years.
1t is thought that such a sentence
was not sufficient for the offence of
which the man was concvicted. Had
the cargo of the vessel gotten on fire
nothing could have saved the vessel
and In fact that section Of the water
front from destruction.

TRIP is ENJOYABLE

The people who go down to Haleiwa
invariably come back to town feeling
better for the trip. The management
of the hotel pays attention to the

stances they are anticipated. The bed.

ways well aired and well kept and the
cuisine is better than anything offered
In the other hotels throughout the Ter

Standard

ON board the $. S. Dorlc which ar

O'Clock today for the orient, was "a
party oil men from the West Virginia
oil district who are going to Japan to
develop the oil fields of that country

the old time oil operators of Pennsyl-

soon saw it to his interest to join for
ces with the octopus rather than OPP
pose it, and since that time he has
been power for the Standard in all
the Eastern oil districts. TWHWW
Mr. Carter is accompanied on his
present trip by his private secretary,
E. P. Salisbury, and the trip to the
Orient for him is in the nature of a
pleasure jaunt, as he does not expect
to remain long in the japanese oil dis
trict, but will spend some time in the
Far East.
The real head of the expedition is
John J. Crotty, of Parkersburg, West
Virginia, one of the best known and
most successful oil well contractors in
the Pennsylvania and West Virginia
fields. He is accompanied by four ex-
vert drillers-Thomas Christy Charles
Stewart, Walter Kroves and c. b.

JOB ON A CATTLE BOAT
MEANS VACATION ABROAD

Collaborating to England is rapidly
becoming the summer outing which,
according to the Travel Magazine,
nowadays finds favor with the col
legian.
From early spring OF the present
year shipping agents along the Allan
tic seaboard were deluged with appli-
cations from the colleges for positions
as cattlemen.
Every craft which in June put out
of Montreal, Boston, New York or
Philadelphia with a shifty cargo or
steers for the British market carried
delegation of highly educated youths
to attend to the wants of the long
horns Reservations in the forecastle
became almost as common as in the
first cabin area.
The romance in the idea of DOMINIC
corduroys and playing master to wild
Western bullocks may be cited as part
of the motive for the appearance OF
numbers of collegians in the cattle
pens tween decks.

The inspectors let him do it, and
he finally started to walk off the pier.
But the officers at once seized the
cigars that were left.

The man fused and swore, but 1t

added when he was arrested and later
fined for throwing some of the Gov

WOMEN WORKERS
NEEDED

This weeks issue of the Midland
Methodist is largely given to the Wo'
mans Home Mission Society of the
Holston Conference. They will send
extra copies broadcast through their
territory in the hope of stimulating
workers and creating an interest
among thousands of women who are
not even looking on. 1t is to be hoped
that this commendable purpose may
come to full fruition. There is no
good reason why every woman in tne
Methodist Church should not be an
active member of one or both OF the
missionary societies. The societies
need them, the general work needs
them, and they need the help of par
ticipating interest.
Yes, every one has a great deal of
other work to do Idlers are few in
this world, and not worth much when

goodbye to the Women's Societies.
But" says one. Il am peculiarly sit
uated." OF course Everybody is in
the same fix. The situations may not
be the same; but each woman feels
that her environment is peculiar, and
that she cannot spare extra time for
additional demands. Such plea will
depopulate the ranks Of Christian
workers, and leave the Church with a
body of silent, idle. women. What
right has one woman to put forth a
plea that other women cannot, with
equal justice, claim?
These women have the Church be-
hind them. They have done nobly in |
a great cause. They have developed |
their own interest and talents in look

the few have done so well, what
might not the many do? The crying
need OF the hour is recruits to the
ranks of Christian working women.

Touching the declaration made BY F.

friends and disciples of w. P. Brown
low. would next year -'bust" the
Eyans-Sanders ring and nominate
Foster V. Brown for Governor, close
friend of Mr. Brown, who said he
spoke with entire authority, dictated
the following interview:
TO my personal knowledge, Mr..
Brown is NOT candidate for Cover
nor, nor for any other Office, for that
matter. He keeps busy with his law
practice and talks politics little. That
little, however, is anything but an en-
couragement to anybody to consider
him as the adherent or champion of
any ring or faction. If he were speak
ing for himself he would say it was
the most veritage nonsense to talk
of him as an instrument with which
to chastise any faction-no matter
how much he might think such faction
needs chastisement
mr.. Brown will not be drawn into
the maelstrom of factional chickering's,
quarrels or contests. He would well
come harmony in his party and would,
no doubt, contribute all his influence
and ability to bring about such a
state of fairs. 1t Is his opinion now
that harmony cannot be produced by
fighting for it, and you may safely
print that he will never be the can
didate of any faction for Governor or
for any other ONCE"

ANTI-JUG
ORDINANCES
JUDGE ALLISON KNOCKS OUT
LAW PASSED BY ROCK.
WOOD COUNCIL.

] CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. July a.
Unless the decision Of Judge N. NJ
Allison, Of this circuit, is reversed by
the supreme court the anti-jug ordi
nances Of several towns in Tennessee
may avail nothing. In the suit OF the
Crescent Liquor Company Of this city
against the Southern Express Com
pany, in which damages were sought
because of the refusal of the. express
company to deliver whisky packages
to parties in lockwood, the Judge has
awarded damages and ruled that the
lockwood ordinances are null and
void.
Sometime ago Z. R Betterton & Co.
sought relief from the express COM
pany by mandamous writ, but Chan
cellor Mcconnell dismissed the writ
and suggested remedy at law.
In his opinion Judge Allison cites a
decision of the Supreme Court of Geor-
gia as follows:
This language used by the Georgia
legislature in the charters of the cities
of Gainesville and Lawrenceville, has
been construed by the supreme court
of Georgia in 109 Georgia, 373 and 1874,
Georgia 5SS, in cases very similar to
the one at bar. The case of Hender-
son VS.. Haywood. 109 Georgia, 1913,
involved the validity of an ordinance
of the city of Gainesville which under
took to make it penal for one who had
lawfully purchased whisky without the
limits of the municipality, to receive
the same therein from any common
carrier or person without paying a
tax for SO doing. In deciding the case
the supreme court says: A munich
pal corporation cannot without ex-
press legislative authority to do SO,
pass any ordinance making penal the |
buying of alcoholic liquors from one
lawfully authorized to sell and that it !!
therefore follows that the reception by
the purchaser of liquor SO bought is
not an act which can be legitimately
dealt with by the authorities of a
corporation as an act with

NEGRO DROWNED
In DUCK RIVER

While bathing in Duck river in com

Sam Cooper, son of Duncan Cooper

up and 1t is thought that young Coop
er ventured too far into the current
and was not able to keep up. The
other boys made a slight effort to
save him, but the current was too
swift for them, and they became
frightened. The river was searched,
and the body was found at noon Mon
day some ESQ yards below where the
negro disappeared.
