WASHINGTON, oct. 31 (P)- Con siderable surprise was occasioned this morning when General Pershing told uo house military committee that he believed that force of 30000O mvn is sufficient strength to take ,.r. of all police and other duties that might be required of it. He disagreed with the recommendation made by the war department for a regular establishment of 5O0,000 men, saying that he believed such an army was not required.
 The general, however, endorsed ul-uIy the idea of the department for a trained citizen reserve. It was important for the best interests of the country, he said, to have such a reserve, that would make the na- ton ready to meet any emergency that might arise in the future.

AUTO ACCIDENT CAUSES
ENFORCEMENT OF LAW
Public Demand That Speed Be
Checked Leads to Sweeping
Order by Authorities.

Speeding and running with open
mufflers is TO be thing of the past
in Liberal.
For some time past the police de-
partment has been trying to abate
the speed nuisance with lenience and
an appeal to the public, but it seems
that this measure has not brought
the desired result, and from now on
it means fine to speed within the
city limits.
The auto accident last week de-
termined the authorities to enforce
the speed laws to the letter and al
ready a large number have been
taken into court and fined. Phe fine
for the first offense is light, but
where the same party is arrested the
secornd and third time it is going to
be increased.
The running of cars with cut-outs
open is also going to become a thing
of the past
There will be no more lenience on
the part of the officers as they have
been ordered to get violators of the
speed laws, and no further notice will
be given.

THE LID is OFF THE
COAL SITUATION HERE
Business May Resume Normal Hours
and Public Gatherings May
Be Held.

Mayor Griffith announced, this
morning that the lid was off and all
regulations in regard to coal were
declared off.
Business will resume normal hours
and public gatherings which have
been prohibited will be allowed.
Asked as to whether or not the
situation warranted the action Mr.
Griffith replied that there was coal
on hand for all immediate needs and
the supply promised would be ade-
quate if received according to sched.
ule. He made it plain that there
should be no waste as conditions
might prevail which would make il
necessary to again put the restric-
tion into effect.
The public should use caution in
the use of coal as there are many
strike rumors and a renewal Of the
strike order would again demoralize
conditions.

MANN -KNISELY

At high noon, Sunday, December
21, one of the prettiest weddings of
the season was performed, when Miss
Gladys Mann became the wife of
Mr.. William Knisely. The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. Taylor
of the Christian Church. Only rela-
tives of the bride and groom were
present. The wedding took place at
the home of the bride and groom,
twenty-three miles northwest of Lib
eral.
Mrs. Knisely is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Mann of this city,
and is very charming and likeable
young lady, and is very popular
among Liberals younger set. She
has many friends in all the surround
ing community.
The bride looked very pretty in
her dress of white satin, trimmed in
blue. The groom wore suit of
navy blue serge, which was very be-
coming to him.
Mr.. Knisely is q prosperous young
farmer. He is not so well known to
Liberal young folks, but we know
he is Of the best type of character
by Gladys being the chooser.
After the ceremony a most ele-
CANT turkey dinner was served Mr..
and Mrs. Knisely were the recipients
of many useful and beautiful pres
ents, such as silverware, linens, cut
glass, etc.
The Democrat joins the many
friends in wishing them long, hap
py and prosperous married life.

ton obtained by Mr.. Crawford wa:
denied and that removed the legal
obstacle in connection with the con.
struction of the road.
W. P. Byers, who is handling the
proposition here, says that the sur
veyors will start work at once on a
preliminary survey, and that actual
work of construction will start the
first Of the year or as soon thereafter
as men can get on the job.
Realizing that the elections would
be favorable a lot of the preliminary
work of assembling material, etc.,
was undertaken so the work of con-
struction will be hastened.
1t will be something of relief to
Liberal folks to know that every
thing has been favorably settled and
that the long looked for railroad is
soon to be started.
1t will not only mean development
for Liberal but the entire section
served by the new line.
