Colored Service Men
Apply for a Charter

Application for charter in the
American Legion was made last night
by the colored service men of the
county at a meeting in the court
house. No other details Of organiza-
ton than the signing names for the
application was completed.
There are several hundred colored
service men in the county and 1t was
decided last night to make an effort
to get eveyr one of them on the mem
bership roll Of the post.
Until the post is regularly estab.
lished 1t was arranged that all col
ored men who desire to become mem
bers, leave their names with county
secretary Straight, who will open an
office in the basement of the court
house tomorrow.

The suggestion was made by Railroad adminstra-
ton representative at the Frenghuysen inquiry that
the coal operators restore their dewater and lake pools
resume war time demurage and do lot of other things,
all of which are excellent when it to speeding up
the movement OF coal traffic when speed the first con-
sideraton, but which are hardship upon consumers
and would discourage any tendency to prepare coal for
the market carefully But why do railroad men always
think first of putting the whole burden upon coal traf-
fc? Why not consider giving it the right of way until
all danger of coal famine this winter is over? What
is more to the point why did the Railroad adminstra-
ton early this year not get the coal carrying equipment
in shape 20 do its full duty? No plea that the railroads
did not have warning of what coming can be en-
tered They had SO much warning that they still seem
to be sore about it.

How lynch law travesties justice in
all its phases was shown at Knox
vile where a mob bent upon hang
ing a negro suspected Of murder
stormed the Jail so successfully that
several whiteprisoners already con-
vcted of that crime made their es-
cape. incidentally many people were
killed or wounded, but the net re-
suits of violence are more power
fully illustrated by the empty cells
OF the Indicators who got away.
In this case, as recently at Wash
ington and Chicago, there was com.
plete failure of city government to
cope with serious disorder. Most Of
our municipalities, when not given
over to demagogues and spoilsmen,
appear to be organized only for So
Gal service. In the presence OF
mob their police officers are as help"
less as their schoolteachers or their
hospital internes. Where there should
be vigor and severity we find usually
nothing but timidity and indeclsion.

There is one feature of the railroad bill which Sen

The lesson to be learned from near
ly all such riots is that the authori-
ties must meet them boldly at the
outset. A few resolute men in uni
form, prompt in the performance OF
their duty, might have saved all of
these cities from lasting turmoil and
shame. Hasty calls for troops only
advertise the tmpotency Of ministers
of the law and often serve to widen
the disturbance.
By reason of its corruptions city
government in the United States has
long been a reproach to the people,
Except as its administrators may be
in league with the lawless, what ex.
cuse can they give for cowardice?

TO SCOOP ICE FROM POLE TO
KANSAS.
Farmer Gives ALI His Savings, $50,
OO0, TO Fantastic Promoter.

BY diligent toll and attention to
business, Homer Hogarth, a farmer,
of Minneapolis, Kan, had-note the
past tense-accumulated $4,000. Then
along came Gallileo Grubino, also
known as Gallileo Grub.
To hear Gallileo tell it, he had been
member of Peary's expedition to the
Police and had declared the northern
apex of the universe in reality is a
steel projection. He had invented a
mighty scoop which could be attached
to the North Pole and, by the rotary
motion Of the globe, would scoop up
ice in the frigid North and dump it
right on Hogarth's farm.
Hogarth bit. The Aurora Borealis
Ice Company" was formed, Hogarth
invested $4,000, and Eallileo con-
tributing his vast knowledge CALI
leo started with the $4,000 for the
North Pole to rig up his scoop.
No ice has been dumped on Ho-
garth's farm and he is worried. He
told the sheriff about it and now a
warrant is out for Gallileo, but his
only known address is the North Pole.
