BIG JOB IN A HURRY
BY SHERIFF SWANSON
Two Hundred and -Four Sub
poenas Serve d and Fifty.
Five Arrests Made.

The Journal believes that Cobb
county has the best Sheriff in Geor-
gia, and the best evidence of the
capability of this worthy official and
his deputy, George Hicks, is shown
in plain figures-and figures don't
lie when they are matter of court
record.
A week before the Novmber trm of
the Superior Court, which is now in
session, Mr. Swanson was given ZIG
subpoenas to bring before the Grand
Jury. BY Friday of that week 204
of these had been brought before
the Grand Jury, been sworn, and by
Saturday morning the Grand Jury
had found sixty-four bills Of indict-
ment. By Saturday night ffty-fivo
of those indicted had been arrested
and either made bond or were in the
county Jail
We don't believe this record has
been equlled by any Sheriff
one of the best things about
Cobb's Sheriff is his quiet, gentle
manly manner and his strict atten-
ton to duty. 1t is also a fact that he
has one of the best deputies to assist
him. Mr. Hicks is a young man, full
of life and energy and is capable
officer.
You fellows that think you can
violate the law and get away with
IT. had better paste this story 10
your hats

EGYPTIANS PLOT
KITCHENER'S DEATH

London, Aug. IL. "A plot to
assassinate Lord Kitchener has
been revealed at Oxford univer-
sity, according to the Daily Ex-
press. The paper states that the
foreign officer received the in
formation that an Egyptian who
until recently was an under
graduate at one of the principal
colleges at Oxford, but whose
name and history have been kept
secret, has avowed his inten-
tion of causing the death of
Lord Kitchener through the med
ium of an Egyptian Nationalist
society.
Sir Edward Grey informed
the home Office, which placed
the matter in the hands Of the
political branch of Scotland
Yard.

MAY AFFECT
COAL MINES OF UTAH

Denver, Aug. 16.-"I wish
to have it clearly understood
that the officers of the United
Mine Workers of America. the
officers of this district and the
men themselves above all else
hope for a friendly settlement.
But if the operators maintain
their present attitude in refus-
ing to grant us a conference, a
strike involving every coal mine
in Colorado, New Mexico and
Utah will be called. The organ
ization of the United Mine
Workers of America will center
the fight here and now"
The foregoing statement was
made today by Frank ]. Hayes
of Indianapolis, international
vice president. who is in Den
yer with full authority to act
for the United Mine Workers
of America in the situation
which threatens to result in the
largest strike in the history of
the coal mining industry Of the
west.
That the situation has reached
the stage of a crisis is admitted
by all concerned. Governor
Ammon, State Commissioner of
Labor Brake and the commercial
organizations of Denver, Pueblo,
Boulder and Trinidad. have
joined in a common effort to
bring about a single result, the
avoidance of a strike.

THEIR PAY RAISED

st. Louis, Aug -16. Officials
of seventeen western railroads
signed a telegram that was sent
to Postmaster General Burleson,
urging the government to in
crease the compensation of the

The increase is asked on the
ground that the volume Of mail

suit of the establishment of the
parcel post, and will increase
further after August 20.
The telegram was sent as the
result of Investigations COZ
Quoted by a committee appoint
ed by the railroads. The tele-
gram says in part:
"The undersigned are promp-
ted respectfully to ask you to
consider whether the United
States government is really deal
ing fairly with the railroads of
the country as to the matter OF

APPEAL HORSE CASE
TO SUPREME COURT

A meeting of the defendants
in this city in the noted stallion
case, tried in the District Court
at Ogden last spring, met Satur-
day night and decided to appeal
to the Supreme Court from the
verdict rendered against them
in the trial court.
This case is one in which
more than a dozen of the most
prominent citizens of Cedar
City are defendants and has at
tracted wide interest. Because
of the distance which parties to
the suit and witnesses were re-
quired to travel and the loss of
time in attending at a distance,
an effort was made to secure a
change of venue from Weber
county to Iron county, but for
the former trial, the request
was denied.
