be ascertained the damage lone to
Antwerp by the bO~mbardment was not
so serious as at first reported. The

northwestern part of the city along
the Scheldt, where the shells, did not
fall.
BIG GUNS GO TO FRANCE.
A Berlin report says the heavy
guns have been sent to France. If
this is true, probably the Verdum
forts along the French frontier, which
are to be attacked. In this case,
however, there is a big field army be-
hind the forts, SO that while their de-
struction would make progress easier
for the Germans, it would not abso-
lutely ensure their advance.
General o Beseler, who directed
h attack on Antwerp and Prince
August William, fourth son of the
German emperor, who was one of
the first to enter the city, have been
decorated by the emperor. What the

Holland that train loads of wounded
arc being conveyed to the hospitals
at the German base.

OF the battles in Galicia and Po-

Sheriff Ashley Says v 1en Election
Is Over People Can Attend to
Their Own Laws
tFrom Sundays Diaiy.)

Sheriff Joe NJ. II. Ashley. sheriff of
Anderson county. talked very interest
lnaly yesterday to a reporter for Tho
intelligencer concerning the aD-
proaching municipal election In city
OF Anderson. mir. Ashley said that he
did not intend taking any active part
in the election. nor does he intend
lending his assistance to any candi-
date. but wants TO warn tho people
OF Anderson right now that they can
look TO the next mayor for an en-
forcement of the city's laws. Mr..
ASilley said that during the time he
has been In office he has devoted a
good part Of his time to looking after
lawlessness In the city. but has reach
ed the conclusion that this is none OF
his business and after the next cleo
ton OF city officers he is going 10 leave
1t to those officers to enforce their own
laws.
The sheriff pointed out tnat the city
has as much right. II 1t will pass the
ordinances. to preserve law and order
within the city as be has In county
and he intends seeing to 1T that the
city runs Its own affairs.
MIR. Ashley said that II was squareiy
up to the people .tc select man to
run the Office OF mayor and administer
the lows, In manner to meet with
the approval Of majority. "If the
town wants wide open man" said
MIR. Ashley, "let the .yuters elect such a
man for mayor and will let him run
the city to suit his own notion. On
the other hand. II tho city wants every
thing closed up tight. then let the
voters select a man willing to carry
this cut. I will look after Anderson
sSSp.y ctY cf Aadera let the mayor lo9F after the
Sheriff Ashleys' logic Is simply
question Of local voters selecting q
man for tho position to meet with
their approval. II they want man
to Iun the city n q wide-open fashion
lot him be elected and tho sheriff will
take no hand and fons the other hand. IL
they want the blue laws and like
laws to remain In force. let some man
be selected that will attend to this.
