February 1913 THE AMERICAN ISSUE
Black List Of Blind Pig Senators at Wash
ington How They Voted
on Webb Bill


Toward the close of the contest in
the senate on February 10, over the
Kenyon Sheppard-W bill, Senator
O'Gorman, of New York, offered the
following amendment
But nothing in this act shall be con-
strued to forbid the interstate ship
ment Of liquors herein defined into any
state, territory or district where the
same are intended for sacramento
purposes or for the personal use of
the owner or consignee thereof or for
the members of his family.
The purpose of this amendment was
to destroy the effectiveness of the bill
and it would have destroyed it if
adopted.
On the final passage of the bill itself,
there is no record for the reason that
a roll call was not demanded. But the
vote on this O'Gorman amendment
shows the scamps who lined up to
blind pigs. Those who voted for the
scuttling amendment and those who
did not vote are here given. Those
senators whose names are not given
voted against the amendment pro-
posed by the liquor men:

"wHEN THE LIGHTS GROW DIM
The Horror Of the Significance to
Becker and Others.

New York, Feb. 12.-Black blinds
were drawn just before dawn in front
Of the cells OF Charles Becker, former
lieutenant Of police, the four Rosen-
thai gunner and other murderers
awaiting execution in the death
house In Sing Sing prison.
There came a shuf1ing OF feet, the
door Of the cell of Joseph Garfola
creaked and swung wide and Garfola
came out and went through the little
green door. A minute afterward the
lights in the death house were
dimmed. The men behind the black
blinds knew full we'll what that
meant. Garfola was being put to
death.
Then came more shufning of feet
and another cell door opened. This
time George Bishop, a negro, stepped
forth, and went through the green
door. For a second time the electric
lights became dim.
, A third time shutting feet and
whispered voices were heard outside
the black blinds, a third door opened
and Donate GARLIC walked to his
death. For the third time the lights
sank.
Then the lights flashed forth, the
black blinds were drawn from be-
fore the cells Of Becker and his COM
panions, and they gazed into the
gray dawn, all aware there were
three men fewer in the death house.
Garfola murdered his wife in Suf-
folk county; Bishop slew Mrs. Mar
garet Bell, an aged Brooklyn widow,
to rob her; GARLIC stabbed Stephen
Dixon, an Ossining carpenter. Bishop
last week made futile efforts to OBJ
tain executive clemency by asserting
that another man had aided in the
murder. Before going to his death,
however, he made a written confess
sion that he had lied.
GARLIC also attempted to stave off
justice with a lie. He admitted the
untruth yesterday.

"BUSTING" ANOTHER TRUST.
General Government Gets Verdict
Against Cash Register Men.

Cincinnati, Feb. IA verdict of
guilty on three counts in the indict-
ments was returned by the jury try
ing the case Of 20 officials or former
officials Of the National Cash Regis
ter Company.
They were charged BY the govern
ment with violating the criminal Sec
tion of the Sherman antitrust act.
The jury deliberated on the case
for almost ten hours, and there were
but a scattered few of the defendants
and spectators in the court room
when Foreman e. G. Mo row an
nounced the verdict.
The indictments we're returned
February %, 1912, after special
agents of the government had put in
many days in the search for evidence.
The trial began November 10, and
a occupied so actual trial days.
The total expense to the cash reg
lister company is estimated q little
less than hall a million dollars. The
government expenditures has been es-
timated at about half as much. The
indictment named 80 men, but Ed
gar Park was dismissed recently by
Judge Hollister upon the representa-
ton that he was In no way connected

Narrow Escape from Death.
(Anderson Mail, 18th

Anu ooh "iuIly lOID-D
Harry Powell, the five-year-old son
Of H. A. Powell, met a narrow es-
cape from death by the Blue Ridge
passenger train due here at 5 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon. The child
was on the railroad track at the Cox
Mill and the oncoming train fright
ened him SO that he did not know
what to do. He had gotten on the
track from some steps in a cut when
he saw the train and evidently tried
to get to the steps, and was going to-
wards the train. Engineer Hughes
applied the brakes hard and fast and
stopped the train within a few feet
of the child.

SO STRIKERS ARE TAKEN.
West Virginia Troops Making Des,
perate Efforts to Stop Fighting.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 13.-De-
tachments of troops stationed at the
strike zone to-day raided the village
of Holly Grove and captured 68 men
and a large quantity OF arms and am
munition. Women and children were
not molested. Holly Grove has been
the hot-bed of the trouble-makers
since the strike began, and it was
from that village, which consists Of
tents and huts inhabited by men, wo-
men and children, despite the zero
weather, that armed strikers sailed
forth and attacked mine guards, the
authorities declared. 1t was hoped
to-day's raid would put a stop to
such tactics.
The prisoners were taken to the
Paint Creek Junction under heavy
guard, and there their cases will be
heard by the military commission. A
total Of 1928 men arrested as a result
of the recent riots are being
held, and although the authorities
expect they will be unable to connect
some Of them with recent riots, they
are positive a number of them will
be convicted.
The men arrested to-day are ac-
cused Of having been responsible for
Mondays battle at Mucklow, when
nearly a score of armed guards and
strikers lost their lives.
The State military authorities are
to-day Investigating a meeting of
strikers, said to have been held last
night, when resolutions alleged to
threaten the lives Of Governor Glass
cock, Sheriff Hill and the military
forces in the field were adopted.
1t was said many participants in
the meeting openly discussed the
resolutions in saloons in Montgom-
cry and copies of the resolutions were
posted in certain saloons there.

BEAUTIFUL WAYNE COUNTY.

The Ontario and Western branch
carries quite number of excursion
lists up to the Poyntelle region this
season. They call it the Poyntelle
region because Lake Poyntelle is sit
uated upon this highest point of any
in that vicinity. After leaving Lake
Poyntelle there is a marked drop in
the grade of the railroad which
keeps up until Hancock, the Mecca
of most Sunday excursionists, is
reached. That part of Wayne county
is the most delightful of any on the
map, and it seems strange that more
of an effort has not been made to
boom up the locality and provide for
the entertainment of Summer visi-
tors. There are few good hotels
up there. If the people of the Poyn-
telle region and the Ontario and
Western railroad would do for that
section what the Lackawanna and
the boarding house keepers are do
ing for Mt. Pocono and the Water
Gap region, believe that Poyntelle
citizens would not have to depend
upon the sale of milk and ice for an
existence the entire year. 1 would
like to see a few more good Sum-
mer hotels up on the line of the On
tario and Western and would like
to see a couple of swift trains a day
over the branch that connects Scran-
ton with the main line up at Cadosia.
They ought to be profitable as we'll as

DON'TS COMPILED
FOR NEW CAR OWNERS.

The following list of don is" has
been compiled for the benefit of own
ers of new cars and should also act
as reminder for the busy motorist.
The suggestions, if followed out, will
save the beginner much trouble and
annoyance:
Don't try to run without oil or
water; it will only make business
for the repair man" Next follow
the several cautions:
Don't try to start without the
switch turned on; it can't be done.
Don't drive fast or try to stop
quickly on wet or slippery pave
ment
Don't neglect in cold weather, to
use an anti-freezing solution which
is suitable for your particular local
ity; your radiator will freeze if you
forget.
Don't forget to release the emer-
gency brake before attempting to
start
Don't try to shift your gears with
your clutch in.
Don't try to break all the speed
laws of your particular locality.
Don't fail to keep your car prop
erly fabricated.
Don't let the car stand so that
the tires rub or chafe against the
curbing.
Don't start your car with a jerk.
Don't run the wheels out of true.
Don't fail to examine your tires
after each trip; it may prevent trou-
BILE on the next one.
Don't forget to keep your rims
free from dust and sharp edges.
Don't use the casing after it is
worn to the extent that it shows the
canvas; have it retreated to prolong
its service. Put your repaired tires
on the front wheels.
Keep tires well pumped up ac-
cording to information advanced by
the maker
IF tires begin to show wear on
one side from running in ruts or
other causes, it is a good plan to turn
them around; in that way the life of
the fire may be prolonged"
