Conway made a motion toward his hip-pocket and then pulled
my revolver and fired at him Statement of Thomas Freer after
killing Thomas Conway in Chicago.
What lay behind this killing we are not interested to inquire.
The calm and matter-offact way in which one citizen spoke of pull
ing his revolver when another man seemed to make a motion to-
ward his hip-pocket, where he might have been carrying a handker-
chief, is suggestive. 1t is so nearly the substance of tens of thous-
ands of similar statements that have been made in Chicago and else
where in our country during the last half century. Conway pulled
his revolver just as naturally as he had pulled his watch, perhaps,
half an hour before. He spoke of it with no more emotion than if
he had been pulling on his gloves. He carried a revolver in his hip
pocket and assumed that Others did the same and that the only OBJ
iect a man had in moving the hand toward this pocket was to get
the drop with a hrearm. And that is an assumption that Carries
weight in Jury rooms throughout the greater part of the country. 1t
is proof that in some things we have not yet emerged from barbar-
ism. Atlanta has an ugly record of hftyfve homicides in a year.
That is more than the homicides counted in Great Britain in the
same length of time. How many of these man killings were due to
the pistol habit2 Probably e-tenths.-Chattanoog News.
How many lives have been sacrificed to the old "hip-pocket'
story, and yet the good people continue to tolerate pistol toting
Are we a nation of Liliputans or impotents regarding the suppress
sion of vice or the eradication of evil? We should be glad to see a
law enacted that would make a man guilty of manslaughter Or MUIR
der, circumstances fixing which, whenever he kills another with a
concealed weapon. Something must be done along this line and we
feel sure that something will be done in the near future.

Negro Soldiers May Be Eliminated

A Washing dispatch says that the
proposal to eliminate the negro asian
American soldier is a topic slated for
consideration when the conference of
the ranking officers of the army is held
at thu capital January 8. Some officers
favoring the plan are prepared to urge
it on the ground that in the Phillip
pines the natives are said to resent the
appearance among them of the black
troopers, and that there are signs of
dissatisfaction in Hawaii, owing to the
fact that the Twenty-ffth infantry, a
negro organization, has been ordered to
the islands to form a permanent gar
rison.
Friends of the negro soldiers are pre-
pairing to make a strenuous fight in
their behalf, citing war records in Cuba
and the Philippines.
Spokane, Wash: 81 have served II
years with negro troops and IL years
with white troops. l have found the
negroes the better behaved, the more
amenable to discipline and more in
clined to be interested in their work as
soldiers" This was the statement re-
Gently made by Major e. B. Gose, CON-
nlanding two battallions of the Twenty
fifth infantry, a negro regiment at
Fort George Wright, when told that
the elimination of the negro troops
from the army would be considered by
a board of army officers.

.'GerrymandcrInq."

The word ''gerrymander" is fire.
quently used in the public press with
reference to the change of congression-
al districts. The word is used when n
political party seeks to so arrange leg
islative districts as to give it an unusu-
al advantage over it's adversary. The
term originated in Massachusetts while
Eldridge Gerry was Governor. From
the Kansas City Journal the Sentinel
clips the following as to the origin of
the word:
''In 1912, while Gerry was governor of
that state, the republican Legislature
redistributed the districts in such a was
that the shapes of the towns forming a
single district in Essex county gave to
the district a somewhat ~dragon-lke
contour. This was indicated upon a
map of Massachusetts which Benjamin
Russell, an ardent federalist and editor
of the Sentinel, hung up over the desk
of his office.
The celebrated painter, Gilbert Stu

serving the uncouth figure, added with
his pencil a head, wings and claws, and

landish name, thus duly coined, soon
came into general currency.
Eldridge Gerry was n of the most
illustrious of the early American states
men. He was born in M~arblehead,
Mass, July II, 1744, and graduated
from Harvard College in 1852. His IA
Their, who was born in England, was a
successful merchant, and young Gerry
entered his counting house when he
graduated from school. He rapidly be-
came one of the most successful, influ-
entail and wealthy merchants of the
day.
The famous gerrymander was carried
out during his second term, and this
resulted in his defeat at the following
election in 1912. However, his devo-
ton to his party was rewarded and he
was made vice president of the United
States, succeeding George Clinton, who
died in office during the administration
of James Madison. Gerry also died in

by George Fitch in the Kansas City
JOurnal.)

(By George Fitch in the Kansas City
Journal.)
Sir Isaac Newton was one of the
greatest Christmas gifts that has been
made to man in recent centuries. He
was born in England, December rs,
1912, and while no one but his parents
bothered to give thanks for the event
at that time, the world has liked Christ
mas a little better ever since for 1ke's
sake.
Newton was a bright boy with good
financial backing and went through
Cambridge, which was quite a job at
that time. He didn't make a Greek let
ter society, or the football team, nor
did he invent a new college yell or be-
come usher of his class on commence
ment day. But in a painstaking way
he gobbled up all the knowledge on
mathematics which had ever been pub
lished and when he had finished he still
had a vast unsatisfied appetite.
When Newton was % he left the
university with a head bullying with
figures and securing ar old second hand
telescope began to survey and plat the
heavens and investigate the character
and habits of the planets. One night
while wandering somewhere between
Mars and the dog star he discovered the
laws of gr~avitation which had hitherto
been overlooked by the scientists of the
world.
Previous to this, men had been able
to weigh turnips, hogs and elephants
with fair success, but did not know
what weight was. However, Newton,
| by covering several acres with figures,
proved that gravitation was the attrac-
ton of one planet for another and for
everything in it's immediate vicinity
Immediately meaning within a few bill
ion miles. By the aid of the laws of
gravitation Newton now dislodged vast
masses of information regarding the
solar system and in a few years was
able to publish the height and girth of
every planet.
These discoveries made Newton very
famous and he was knighted by Queen
Anne. But he didn't mind this much,
and continued for the rest of his life
studying the planets and weighing
them ever and anon with the sedulouf
care of a mother weighing her young
infant. So absorbed was he that h.
took little interest in the world anc
grieved deeply whenever his figures
showed that the sun was falling off q
little during the heated season, or tina,
Venus wasn't as plump as she had beer
the year preceding.

contributed a great amount of wisdom
to the human race. His life should BIZ

HO W ABOUT II COMMISSION FORM or
re

How about a commission form OF government for Grenada? We
are heartily in favor of it. Is we believe it would be for the best in
terest of the town to adopt it. Other towns and cities are adopting
it. We are running our municipal affairs under an old mosscovered
charter.
A commission form of government is intended to give a more
businesslike administration of municipal affairs, and, if that be true,
then every town and city in the land needs it. To say that this is
true is no reflection on city officials. Now the responsibility is too
much divided and nobody gives his time wholly to city affairs, and
it is still true that what is everybodys business is nobody's busi
ness" which, correctly construed, means that where the responsible
ity is equally divided in any business the business gets at best only
half attention.
The question of reducing the cost of municipal government to a
minimum dawns upon those who bear the burdens of city govern
ment with increasing force year by year. While Grenadas
debt is far below many other towns of its size, still it is large enough
to give the thoughtful man some concern, and undoubtedly at the
rate we are going there is not only not any prospect Of decreasing
the debt, but every likelihood that force of circumstances shall COM
pei us to increase it.
We believe three men can give Grenada a more systematic ad-
ministration of city affairs, where their time is required, than seven
or eight men. We repeat that this is no reflection O n our council.
They are no doubt doing as we'll as any other like number of men
under similar circumstances.
We should be glad to have some expressions from our tax
payers.
