A NARROW ESCAPE
L. Golden's Experience With an Auto
mobile Sunday Night.

At about go o'clock Sunday night
after alighting from the car which was
i'll his charge, Conductor l.. Golden OF
the Parkview line had an experience
with an automobile, in front of the
Phoenix Hotel on Texas street, which
he will not soon forget.
The auto was going at great speed
when Conductor Golden was knocked
down. His escape from serious, if not
fatal in Jury, was providential. He is re-
ported to be improving today.
Singular as it may seem, it IS not
known by whom the automobile was be-
ing speeded The police have no knowl-
edge of any of the occupants, nor have
the Traction Company any information
that would lead 10 the discovery of the
owner or the occupants of the auto,
whose number, if there was one on the
machine, was not visible.
Recently the Council enacted the Flor
sheim ordinance regulating the use OF
automobiles and similar machines within
the city limits. This ordinance is i'll
force, but it is disregarded with impunlty
by some of the automobilists who SEEM
ingly are as reckless as they are careless
of the rights of pedestrians and the pub
lie in general when speeding in their
autos
One of the provisions of this ordi-
nance is the speed limit and the require
ment of the display of the number OF
every auto, so that it shall be plainly Wis
ible, day Or night.
How many autos are numbered IN
keeping with the provisions of this ordi-
nance?
The ordinance should be enforced
fairly and impartially. If it be impos-
sible to enforce it, then it should be re-
|pealed

~ MAY BE CHIEF CHELETTE.
AS The Caucasian is about going to
press, it has learned that Chief Chelette
will be requested to resign for his fail
ure in the enforcement of the Sunday
law.
The request to resign is signed by
nine of the fifteen councilmen.
1t is not known what defense Chief
Nhelette may offer. Perhaps, he may be
surprised when he reads the afternoon
papers
Has Chief of Police been directed to
enforce the law rigidly? Has he been
advised to be mild and gentle with Sun
day law violators?
Has he received intimations that his
winkng at the Sunday law would be
more desirable than its enforcement?
1t will not be denied that the law has
been disregarded with impunity, and on
ly now and then few small fry have
been pulled while the big whales have
been free and unmolested,
The chief of police should speak in
his defense He should tell why he has
not enforced the law more rigidly
The people would like to know and
have the right to know. Speak out,

Chelette, who would be his probable suc

WHY DOES HE LIE?
What the Candidate frcm St Mary Says
i'll His Speeches.

The Conflict: Can anybody tell why
there is SO little regard for the truth Ill
what the gubernatorial candidate from
St. Mary says in his speeches? 1t would
not unbalance anybody mentally to an
swer this question. The truth is too
bad to tell, and does not suit his pur-
poses in this campaign. He must roar
and rage and cavort until he browns
and sinks the light of truth if he wins.
And he is certainly using these tactics to
the limit. Listen at him in his Wlnn-
field speech! He told the people that he
aided in the passage of the bill i'll the
Legislature last year to prohibit solicit
ing or receiving orders for liquor i'll
prohibition territory in Louisiana. What
stupendous, colossal and monumental
lie! How was it that this writer. who
was moving the State to pass the bill,
did not become aware that the president
of the Senate was working for it? How
was it that S. D. Pearce, the author OF
the bill, never discovered the would-be
Governors powerful influence? How
was it that Attorney Grisham, of Winn-
field, and Judge Edwards of Bienville,
never availed themselves of the help OF
this great mogul of the Senate, when
they were helping us to pass the bill ?
We, all, welcomed the helpful aid of At
torney General Guion and Senator Per
cy, but no intimation ever came that
there was anything but course and a
kick from the president and president
pro tenn of the Senate, who now ask to
be elevated a notch apiece.
Why did he sneak off up to Winnf1eld
to deceive the good people with such a
falsehood? The people Of Winfield want
the truth, and they shall have it.
