:. "THE TRUTH WAGON

1t is not pleasant and profitable
always to tell the truth in the COL
umns of newspaper. Men who
have tried this heretofore have al
ways come OF grief. Only a few days
ago the editor of a paper in Indiana
grew tired Of being called a liar, and
announced that he would tell the
truth in the future, and the next
issue of the paper contained the fol-
lowing items:
John BONN, the LATEST merchant

John Coyle, our groceryman, is do
ing poor business. His store is dus-
ty and dirty. How can he do much?

groom is an up-to-date loafer He
has been living off the old folks at

"The governor of our great State,

day. He has very few friends here
now. He promised some of the vot-
ers of this precinct a piece of pie in
event of his election, but had for
gotten all about it when the time to
hand over the Office rolled around.
Which reminds us of an Ilninois edi-
tor who became tired of welding the
white wash in the matter of obitu-
aries, decided to reform and tell the
truth just once. He commenced as
follows upon the death Of a citizen: :

OFFICER GooDRREAD MAKES BIG
HAUL AT GLOUCESTER AND

The police dragnet was thrown out
yesterday and Friday for violators OF
the traffic. ordinances and up to last
night ten men had been cited to ap.

to face charges of running past street
cars without stopping, In the list
were some of the most prominent citi-
zens of Brunswick who were caught
as they passed by Officer ]. S. Good.
bread who stood at the corner of
Gloucester and Newcastle streets and
took them as they came" showing
no favorites.
Those who were cited to appear
follow: Carl Stanner, Henry Hopkins
Millard Reese, E. H. Dennis, Paul
Morton, j. L. Andrews, A. L. Church,
Ralph McCrary, Eli Thomas, colored,
and Howard Anderson, colored. They
will face Mayor Hopkins Monday
morning, all on the same charge that
of violating the traffic ordinances.
The particular offense charged is
that of violating an ordinance which
Chief of Police Owen recently an
nounced would be rigidly enforced.
That is the provision which requires
all automobiles to stop when ap-
preaching crossing at which street
car has stopped to discharge passen-
gers. The purpose of this ordinance
is to prevent accidents to persons
who alight from the cars and have
not time to reach the sidewalks be-
fore an automobile comes along.
The minimum fine for conviction
under this ordinance is one dollar
while the mayor may, at his discre-
tion. make the fine 5000. Police court
Monday morning will no doubt be very
interesting when all these cases come
UP for trial.

CUMBERLAND TO
GET POST OFFICE
ANNOUNCED FROM WASHINGTON
THAT OFFICE is TO BE
RE-ESTABLISHED.

The Brunswick board of trade has
won out in it's fight for the re-estab-
lishment of the post office at Cumber-
land island, though it was necessary
for the steamer line which bid on the
contract for the carrying of the mail
to make some concessions before the
department would authorize the re-
establishment of the office.
The Cumberland Office was discon-
tinued on March Is, and the board of
trade Immediately took up the matter
with the postoffice department, as
well as Congressman Walker and the
two Georgia senators. Shortly there
after an examination for postmaster
was ordered, and it was thought that
the office would be re-established be-
fore the opening of the summer sea-
son. 1t is understood that the amount
sidered too high by the postoffice de-
partment, and consequently the office
was not re-established.
The fight was continued, however,
and yesterday when the steamer line
agreed to reduce its bid kilograms
were fired into Washington by Secre-
tary Smith and during the day replies
were received, announcing that the
office at Cumberland would be re-
established as soon as the necessary
papers could be filed.
This promise was made by the first
assistant postmaster general to Con-
gressman Walker and also to Senator
Hardwick, both of whom have taken
an active interest in the fight. Mr..
Walker has made every effort to have
the office re-established and has made
several visits to the first assistant
postmater general in the interest of
the matter He has received the CO.
operation of both the Georgia sena-
tors
Considerable complaint has been
made at Cumberland recently over the
mail facilities, and summer visitors
to the resort have actually departed
because of the poor mail service. It
is expected, however, that the Office
on the island will be open again with
in a few days.

GETS CONTRACT
TO BUILD WHARF
LOCAL CONTRACTOR TO CON.
STRUCT PIER FOR SAVANNAH
SUGAR REFINERY.

While of course no announcement
has been made of it from Savannah,
and probably will not be, still a Bruins
wick contractor is to figure materially
in the construction of the new sugar
refinery now in course of construc-
ton in that city.
w. H. Greenfield, the we'll known
pile driver contractor. has been
awarded the contrac; for the con-
struction of the big wharf to be erect
ed by the new sugar refinery COM
pany, and he is now preparing to go
to Savannah with one of his big pile
drivers to begin the work. He was
awarded the contract some time ago.
Contractor Greenfield will be en-
gagged in the work in Savannah for
some time and will take along a force
to operate his machine. The con
tract in all calls for something over
five hundred piling and the compile
ton of the wharf Between $4,000
and $4,000 is involved in the con
tract.
In this connection it may be stat
ed that Mr.. Greenfield has more work
in and around Brunswick just at pres
ent than he is able to handle He is

dts appeared near San Benito several
detachments of troops were sent to
deal with them. Motor cars were
commandered and two companies of
the Twenty-siXth infantry were dis
patched from Harlingen to Olmito, 10
miles north of Brownsville, with or
ders to cut off the bandits retreat
across the Rio Grande into Mexico.
Meanwhile two other companies of
infantry sent from San Benito earlier
in the night to investigate reports
that the Joe Scott ranch had been
attacked, found their quarry ten miles
east of San Benito. A running fight
took place, in which according to
meager reports available here, three
Mexicans were killed, while the Amer
ican force suffered no casualties.
Hide and Seek Game.
In addition to these two forces a
troop cavalry from Fort Brown was
thrown into the game of hide and
seek played by Mexicans when reports
came that another ban( force had
appeared near the Fresnos tracl,
fourteen miles north of Brownsville,
and had robbed a Mexican FARMER of
his horses.
Reports from the various detach-
ments are awaited eagerly here and
at Fort Brown today
Much interest was displayed con-
cerning the question whether if the
bandits escaped into Mexico the
Americans would pursue "hot trail"
across the international boundary or
leave the corraling of the outlaws to
the Carranza soldiers under Gen. Ri
caut, who recently announced he had
placed sufficient force in this terri
tory to deal with all outbreaks and
that any crossing by the Americans
would meet with armed resistance.
