This leads me to remark what has
been in my mind right here in New
=. berry for quite a while. The auto
mobile has claimed three victims in
this county within the past year or
two, and while we have laws and regu-
lations as to driving and handling cars
these laws and regulations are more
observed in the breach than in the OBJ
servance- If you don't believe what I
say you just take yourself to any cor
ner of any street and stand for just
little while, and you will see some one
shooting by either in Ford or some
automobile, and then watch the speed
and see whether or not l am correct.
True, you will see some old ugly tin
signs hanging at some of the corners
which read something about four miles
an hour, but how many drivers do
you suppose slow down to four miles
per hour. And the speed limit in the
town is II miles the hour, l believe,
and how many do you suppose pay
anv attention to that And then some
days-Saturday for instance-you
stand on the corner at Glider & Weeks
when the streets are crowded and
watch how many cars come shooting
around that corner telling the gawons
and others to get out of the way for
| am coming, and maybe they have no
business, but are simply pleasure rid
ing. Of course, they have a rlgnt to
the road, but how much better it would
be for them and the public if they would
take another street when the town is
crowded with country wagons. 1t
does seem that it has come to tne point
where it is going to be necessary to
have some very stringent laws passed
regulating the driving Of the cars, not
so much Tor the protection of the dr1V-
ers themselves, but for the people who
traTal otherwise, and then for the
careful driver. And then, most of all,
see that these laws are enforced Fact
is there are laws plenty now, If they
were just enforced.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-12-07

But there should be no necessity Tor
so many laws. The people themselves
should have enough regard for the
rights of the other fellow to place
themselves in his place and to so act
as they would have the other fellow
to at il positions We're changed. That
IS what you call altruism, | believe, too
much forgotten and overlooked in this
age. Eut il people will not do that
then that is the purpose of the law
make chem lave some regard for the
rights of the ctter fellow. And so
the making of laws will have to go
on and on forever.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-12-07

Talking about laws reminds me OF
an article some one handed me the
other dav containing list of new bills
to be introduced in the next session
of the legislature by member named
Wolfe from Anderson county. He Will
be some introducer if he introduces all
that were on that list. But justice
makes me say that some of the meas
ures ne is proposing have some merit,
as expressed in their title. For in
stance, an amendment to the gallon-a-
month law so as to permit the ship
ment of five gallons of beer a month.
Now, that counds like the fellow had
some sense. Really it does. Then an
other is to require railroad viaducts.
Now, l don't exactly know what that
means, but l imagine it means to do
away with grade crossings, and, If
am correct, then that is another good
measure. Well, to the making of laws
there is no end, just like it was away
back in the days Of King Solomon

MAY Minimize
IMPORTANCE Of
FALL OF FORTS
Russian Military Observers
Point With Satisfaction
Heroic Defense.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Petrograd, Aug. 22.-Russian mill
tary observers minimize the import
ance of the fall of the fortresses of
Kovno and Novo-Georgievsk and point
with satisfaction to the heroic de-
Tense by the Russian garrisons.
The military writers declare that
Brest-Litovsk is the goal of all Ger
man efforts in the central theatre of
war, where in the near future the
Russians will be forced to contend
against three approaching armies for
the possession of this important base.
Referring to the evacuation of
Kovno, it is said that almost the gar
rison gave up their lives before sur
rendering.
Today's Russian official statement
indicates that the Austro- Germans
are pressing towards Brest-Litovsk,
from the northeast and the south de.
termined to execute flank movement
to the southeastward, where they have
already crossed the important north
and south railway and pushed their
forces well toward Pisha II miles
east of Vlodava. The Russian defense
is aided by swamps far to the east
of the river Bug.
Russian military men see in the de-
termined German efforts to push
across the railway north of Brest-
Litovsk, plan to cut off the Rus
sian armies based on that fortress
from those operating at Ossowetz
and thus enable the Germans to ap-
preach Osowetz from the south. The
Bialystok- Brest railway is said to be
still in Russian hands, although vic
ious battles are in PROCESS in various
sections.
The German lines now run approx
mately as follows:
Beginning at the gulf of Riga i'm.
mediately to the east of Riga, they
extend along the river IA to Pone
viezh, thence to a point east of Vii
komir and southeast to Janov, through
0ssowetz, bending westward t.

miles north of Brest-Litovsk, swing
/ ing westward around that fortress
touching the river Bug near Vladav;
and extending toward Pisha.
The presence of a German fleet il

ton of Riga close at hand.

Captain Kilburne said that unless
there was an adequate coast artillery
armament on Sandy Hook, an enemy's
fleet could lie at the mouth Of AM

York harbor and concentrate their
fire on each vessel attempting to leave
the harbor to engage them.
The Notifications in the Philippines
and Hawaii, Captain Kilburne said,
could not be reinforced in war time
and it was very doubtful if the Pan
ANA Notifications could be reinforced

needed to man them properly, but
they now have not more than ten

there were no better mortars in the
world than those in American forts.

the captain, "is that they give US
enough men to man one-half of the
guns"

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. Ex-Governor
Nat E. Harris has had conference
with Herbert Clay, solicitor Of the
Blue Ridge circuit, in which Cobb
county is located, and Judge H. L.
Patterson, of the superior court of the
same circuit, relative toN the Frank
lynching.
The governor said Solicitor Clay
had assured him that everything that
could be legally done would be done
to bring the members of the Frank
lynching party into court.
Judge Patterson stated that a spec
ial term of court to try pending cases
would be convened Monday, August
80, and that the Cobb county grand
jury would meet Wednesday, Septem-
Der /. At that time Judge Patterson
said he would lay the Frank matter
before the grand jury ard urge that

Gals of Baldwin county, in which the
state prison farm is located.
City council today unanimously
passed an ordinance making it unlaw-
full to sell in Atlanta photograph
of the body of a person who has been
hanged illegally.
Licenses were issued to three per-
sons here to sell postcard photographs
of the body of Leo Frank taken while
still hanging. Acting Mayor Rags
dale, when he learned of this, ordered
that no more licenses be issued. City
council today instructed the city clerk
to revoke these licenses and return
the license fees.
It was said at the governors office
today that the executive department
could not make public at this time
all the steps it is taking to clear w
the lynching.
"When an official is hunting dowr
criminals, he doesn't usually notify
the criminals of every move he has
made and contemplates making" was
the statement made at the capitol.
