THE AUTOMOBILE LAW

The officers continue to round up
the automobiles who persist in
running their cars too fast within
the city limits aud we trust this
wat >hfuI policy will he maintained
at all times. But really 10 miles an
hour il the business district is
rather too strict. About every town
has placed the limit at IL miles.
Outside the business districts the
limit is Is miles an hour 1t is
pretty hard to keep a car throttled
down to 10 miles an hour. Any
safe driver can stop his car in its
length going at IL miles an hour.
Another thing the officer with his
stop watch or his measured distance
has everything on his side and he
should be dead sure that the auto
mobilist has transeressed the law
before jerking him up AS rule We
believe this is done and we have no
occasion to say it has not been done
in every case in High Point, but we
do know that there are exceptions
where automoblists have been
jerked up by extra" Officers en-
ployed for that purpose who get so
much per for conviction and who's e
word was taken absolutely by the
presiding judge, notwithstanding
there were witnesses in the car
whose word was just as good, to say
the least, as these 81 90 per case"
officers. We have three cases in
mind in this county and one abso-
lutely where an autnmObilist was
going less than IS miles on hour on
a stretch of road where the limit
was Is miles an hour, yet these hired
81 90 per case men swOre that said
auto was exceeding IS miles an hour
and the party was made to pay a
line and costs for same, nOtWlth-
standing evidence to the contrary,
the judge absolutely taking the OH
GERS word for it and telling the auto
mobilist that his speedometer was
wrong The automobilist in ques
ton saw the officers 100 yards
ahead, made the remark that they
wouldn' get him. kept an eye on
his speedOmeter and absolutely kept
the car within IS miles, but as be-
fore stated was held up for fine
and costs.
However we are glad to know that
only few such people are clothed

To keep history straight, although
independent is The Review in poll.
Tics: At the beginning of the war the
republicans emphatically denied
that the war was responsible for the
business depression and said it was
democratic bIeaboo but now the
same party claims that the war is
responsible for the great prosperity.
Rather inconsistent. isn't 1t? These
are facts because they were pub
Iished broadcast in republican news
papers and we heard scores of repub-
licaDs say so.

A RIGHTEOUS VERDICT

The verdict of the jury in the Ter.
~ murder case not only accords
with the law and the facts, but if it
meets with popular approval. 1t is
a righteous verdict and establishes
Guilford as county in which human
life is not held lightly. Any YER
dict other than one finding the de-
PENDANT guilty of first degree murder
would have been regarded as a sad
miscarriage of justice. No jury
finding can compensate for the loss
of the splendid citizen who was so
ru,hlessly slain, but the twelve good
and true men who patiently heard
AMI inteligently considered the evil
dence in this case have said to the
world that the majesty of the law
must be upheld in Guilford The
verdict will increase the respect of
good citizens for our courts and per-
haps serve rs a determent to the
vicious and lawless.
The unhappy defendant has had
a fair and impartial trial and was
given every right and privilege al
lowed him under the law. He was
ably and jealousy defended by
learned and astute counsel who
spared no effort to save him from
the sentence of death. A jurist of
wide knowledge of the law and deep
probity presided and held the scales
of justice evenly balanced. A jury
of twelve of Gui!ford's best men
found the facts according to the in
terpretation of the law as given to
them from the bench aud re urned
d verdict that meets the ends of
Justice. Patriot

Conan and Harris, whose success as producers has become almost proverb- ial. will provide the Thanksgiving Day attraction at the Jefferson matinee and night.
 "The House of Glass;" which ran throughout the entire season last year in New York, is the play and people in touch with affairs theatrical win at once recognize in this announcement the promise of a great treat Four acts of tensity and sustained mystery are said to constitute the chief ele- ments of popularity in this play, and Max Marcin. the author, is said to have given an entirely new twist to a drama. and to have injected variety of thrills new to the theatre and sure of a quick response from all classes of playgoers.
 In the Judgment of Conan and liar ris the disclosing of the story of a play in advance tends to discount the enjoyment of the audience, and, there fore, only meagre details of sThc House of Glass are forthcoming. That a wholesome young stenographer gets into peck sf trouble through her in- nocent association with crook, and is pursued and persecuted by the po- lice department through 10 years of a life entirely free from guilt is all that is 'vouchsafed.
