TEDDY is IN TIE RUNNING

These be troublesome times, politi-
cally. The confusion of the situation
is added to by the announcement of
Former President Theodore Roosevelt,
who says his that is in the ring" as
the cowboy would express it. Teddy
says he is willing if the people are
agreeable, and like the coy politician
hat he is, he likes to be coaxed. His
heart yearns for the cause of the dear
people, and only in their behalf is it
possible for him to make the sacrifice.
Taft, La Toilette, Roosevelt and Com
Minis on the republican carpet will make
things lively. Wilson, Clark, Harmon
and Underwood for the democracy will
cause matters to boil
La Toilette candidates slated for del
egates-at, large from Wisconsin are
Governor McGovern, Lenroot, Walter
l.. Houser and Alvin Kletch.
Taft and administration candidates
for the same honor are Former Gov
ernors Hoard and Davidson, Senator
George II. Hudnall and E. L. Phillips.
Doubtless Roosevelt slate will be
placed in the field in Wisconsin.
And the merry war will proceed with
lusty excited lire of rooters.

and brought suit for 81, 500 damages,
The jury gave him a verdict for that
amount. and the owner of the dog APP
pealed to the supreme court. The SUI
preme court confirmed the verdict, and
says il strong words that the owners
of barking and vicious dogs are respon-
sible for all damages caused by such
dogs and that the owners keep them at
their own peril.

printed letter from Mr.. T ] Bergen,
asscssor Of incomes under the new

it recommt nds close study Of this in

this new statute appears on its face.
The CENSOR does not agree with As

the PEOPLE OF THE STATE" 1t was
enacted in spite Of the people of the

endum i such superior weapon to
protect the people against themselves,
as we are told by this bunch Of legisla-
tive bosses and sanity guardians, yet
they dare not trust the people to say
whether or not they wanted it. The
officials and commissions at Madison
know full well that enormous amounts
must be raised to meet the rapidly
swelling tide of taxation, and this is
the latest lever to screw more exation
from the now over burdened taxpayers.

About Courteous Treatment

When a passenger goes
to a railroad train and is
met by an attentive por-
ter who takes his bag,
and a courteous conduc-
tor who assigns him to
his seat or berth in a
welcoming tone, his trip
has begun pleasantly.
Later on, when the con-
ductor comes along and
takes up his ticket as if
1t were a pleasure in
stead of a duty, he begins
to feel that he is in the
hands of friends who
have his welfare and com
fort at heart. And when
he meets a pleasant greet
ing and has a good meal
promptly and deftly
served in the dining car,
and afterward finds some
companionable people in
the club car, he realizes
that there is genuine en-
joyment in the modern
means of travel.
It is the constant aim
of the Pennsylvania Rail
road management to set
and maintain this stan
dard on it's trains. Its
employees are instructed
and trained in the school
OF civility, courtesy and
good manners. AS far as
they are concerned, every
passenger is on a pleasure
trip, and it is a part of
their duty to lend all the
aid they can to make it so.
A passenger chooses
his train very much as he
does his hotel, and his
patronage is an asset
which increases with the
manner in which it is cul-
tivated. The manage
ment knows this and its
golden rule is "Strive to
please. ...a.

heart in a corporation

WHEN TO SEINE AND NET FISH
SOME PROVISIONS OF GAME LAW
THAT ARE OF INTEREST NOW.

Is Permissible With Owners Consent
From July 1 to Feb. 4. Cannot
Shoot Doves Until Dec. 1.
The News has had number of in
quiries recently as to the provisions
of the game law in regard to SEEMING
for fish.
With the permission of the land
owners both SEEMING and netting are
permissible from July 1st to Febru-
airy LIST, and at no other time of the
year Parties who fish in any way,
whether with hook and line, seine or
net, without the consent of the own
ers on whose property the stream or
pond is located, are subject to prose
cution.
Another feature of the game law
which seems not to be generally I'M
derstood is that relating to the kill
ing of doves. Heretofore these birds
could be shot after July list, but I'M
der the present act it is unlawful to
shoot them before December LIST, the
same date on which the open season
for quail begins.

INSURANCE MAN IN TROUBLE
A DRAFT HE DREW FOR BOARD
WAS NOT HONORED.

Solicitor of Southern States Life in-
surance Co. Arrested ON Warrant
Sworn Out by r. S. Carpenter.
J. E. Lane, a solicitor for the
Southern Life Insurance Co., OF At
lanta, was arrested in Shellman on
Monday afternoon on a warrant
sworn out by R. S. Carpenter, the
proprietor of the Dawson Inn, and
brought to Dawson that night and
lidged in Jail.
Lane is young man about 30
years of age and of good appearance.
His trouble is due to the failure
of Willis Hogg, general agent of the
company, to honor draft for SD
that was drawn on him to pay Lanes
board bill at the hotel.
A committal trial of Lane before
Justice Peddy Tuesday morning at
noon was suspended by the accept
ance of Hogg, who was present as a
witness against the prisoner. of a
proposition from Carpenter to with
draw the prosecution upon payment
of the $15 draft and court costs.
When this was footed UP and found
to be about $42 Hogg withdrew his
agreement to advance the money for
settlement of the case, and court
was adjourned until o'clock Tues
day afternoon.
Evidence introduced in the morn
ing was to the effect that Lane had
commissions amounting to more than
$500 in notes he had taken and
turned over to Hogg. The latter tes-
titled that the prisoners commissions
were not to be paid until the notes
were collected, and that he had noti-
fed Lane not to draw drafts on him.
