AIDING PEACE ONNlCERS.

When other citizens take upon them
selves the unpleasant duty Of assist
ing in the enforcement of the speed
laws, as Mr.. N. B. Dial has undertake
en- to do. the streets of our city will
become safe. Until others join with
him in this commcndable step, we may
expect to see the speed laws violated
with impunity. 1t Is not a pleasant
task that one takes upon himself to
put the forces of the law to work
against fellow citizen, but often the
necessities Of the case force them
selves upon him so that it is the only
alternative except submitting to the
injustice. Reckless driving Of auto
mobiles does not always indicate will
full disregard of the laws or the rights
OF others, but Is often the result Of
and failure to realize
its dangers. This Is not excusable, Of
course, but does give milder aspect
to the criminality OF the case How
ever, the needless and the thoughtless
alike need to be reminded forcibly Of
the laws demands and the private
citizen can render much aid If he will
but do so. 1t Is a very unpleasant
luty, but one that needs to be per-
'ormed.
