gers and Deputies-Adjourned to
Wednesday to Receive Report,

The city council is to undertake

ago between three members of the
city police and several county and
state officers as result of which
one policeman died, and two have
been release on bond in the sum OF
$1,000 each on charges Of assault
to murer. This action is the result
of motion by Alderman 7. CriXell,
who is chairman Of the police com.
mitee to investigate the matter.
Mayor Cole, in accordance with the
motion which carried without dis
senting vote, instructed the police
committee of the council composed
of G. T. Crixell, G. II. Thorn and w.
S. Blackshear, in cooperation with
Chief of Police r. j. Tucker and the
citizens committee, of which G. II.
More and J. G. Fernandez are the

investigation be made at once, sug-
gested an adjourned meeting to hear
the report of the committee, and the

day afternoon at o'clock.
In instructing the committee, May
or Cole stated that he wanted no
half way reports, but that the mat
ter must be gone into thoroughly,
If it is to be placed on record in the
minutes of the council
In presenting his motion, Alder
man Crixell stated that the reports
which have gone out leave the city
and its officials in a bad light with
the outside world. He said if the DO
lice were in the wrong they should
be punished, as it Is not the desire
of the city to have men on its force
who are guilty of such conduct as
tnat with which the arrested police
men have been charged.

Whittier Are We Drifting?"
Coming down strictly to local COM
ditions, Judge Hopkins sal din part:
Gentlemen, you have a serious
condition confronting you in Gamer.
on county, and more especially here
in your city. 1t is one that demands
at your hands searching investi-
gation. When the welfare, safety
and life Of your fellow citizen Is
held so cheap that neither is scarce
~ considered when a private or per-
sonal grudge is at stake, then, indeed.
is it high time TO call a halt, and
stop to inquire whittier are we drift
ing?'
This is no time for quibbling ov-
er personal differen .es, nor is it any
time for the weakened citizen 10
hold away. The conditions require
the cooperation Of the resolute, fear
ess citizens to the end that they may,
by united effort. put stop to law
lessness and crime, and show to those
who do not seem 70 have respect tcr
any law. that rley must either
change their conduct or else Re made
to suffer the consequences. II the
present condition of affairs IS permit
ted to continue it vii eventually
lead to an established teu1, such as
we read of in other places. and will
cost the lives Of many Of our citizens
before it can be eradicated.
"It is a sad commentary on the
efficiency Of officers Of law. and ira
vesty upon justiceto hear Of certain
their lives and property. and TO hear
the remark SO often heard that they
will get so and so yet, and such like
expressions, and wondering who Will
Be the next one Gentlemen, such
conditions are appalling. Yet no
sensible. intelligent man can deny
that they exist right here in your
midst, but, on the other hand, must
admit the gravity Of the situation.
He charged the jury to fully inyes-
tigate these conditions. in connec~
tion with their investigations of the
shooting and killings that have re-
Gently taken place in their midst.
Closing his charge on local condi-
tions, Judge Hopkins said:
"Y our community is gaining an
unenviable reputation abroad by rea-
son Of these various assaults and
murders, and you owe It to yourself
YES. to this immediate community,
and 10 the citizenship Of the en-
tire county TO now drive the enter
ing wedge against this class of crime.

For Pure Elections.


In directing the jurys attention to
alleged violations of Terrell election
law. or any other election law that
might be brought before that body
Judge Hopkins said:
In directing your attention to
these matters, can do no better han
quote from a recent charge to the
grand jury:
1T becomes my duty to specially
charge you to investigate how same
(referring to the recent election)
was conducted and for you to spec
tally see that all our election laws,
particularly all sections Of the Ter
rell election law, were observed and
obeyed, and that no misdemeanors or
felonies as defined by that act were
ommitted I therefore specially
charge you to search diligently. and
il there were any violations Of said
election law in any Of its provisions,
20 fearlessly indict the offenders, for
It i only BY pure elections that We
can preserve a free government.

WAR WAGED on WOOD

Appropriation Bill

Washington, June 1S.-PreSident
Taft has vetoed the army appropria-

greSs with a message indicating his
disapproval of the legislative provision
which would oust Major General Leon
ard Wood from the office of chief of
staff on March t next.
In his message the president said:
