Tn the six cases the ueienoants were convicted of various crimes In courts of south Alabama.

Ihe cases were called at the last term ana continued when the defendants were not represented and the records were not presented.
 The cases were called again last week, and still no defendants anpeared ;. o. smith, attorney general, filed a motion to dismiss the appeals. which was promptly granted The defendants Will be required to begin serving the sentences without delay

WESTERN UNION IS
 LOSER IN DECISION
Company Must Remove Poles From L. & N. Right-of-
 Way in This State

Montgomery, November 17.-(Spe- cial)-The Western Union Telegraph company will be forced to move every pole and all wires from the right-of- way on the main line of the Louisville and Nashville railroad between the point where the railroad enters he state near Nashville to the point where 1t leaves the state beyond Mobile if the supreme court affirms the decision of Judge William L. Martin of the Montgomery circuit court which be- came public today.
 Judge Martin held that the teleg .aph company cannot condemn the railroad right-of- way, and has no legal right to remain on the property of the railroad after the expiration of the lease con tract. The decision is in the main cases brought by the telegraph company in an effort to continue the use of the railroads property. Many cases have been before the court in recent wears. but this is the first time final deci- sion has been given in the case involv- ing the poles and wires on the main entered by the telegraph company. and In each suit Judge Martin decided for the defendant
 The telegraph company sought the rlght-of-way on the contention, among others. that 1t previously owned inc right-of-way, having purchased it from another telegraph company. Judge Martin held that it voluntarily Aban- doned any claim it may have mad 10 the right-of-way many years ago, ard entered into a contract with the rail- road for the lease of space for it's poles and wires along the railroad tracks and, therefore. could not come into court at this late date and seek to es= tabiish claim to something which it had voluntarily surrendered and which Tad been recognized as the property of another for many years.
 Judge Martin rendered the decision without an opinion, many of the points involved having been discussed in other cases involving the use of the right-of- way The Western Union has given notice of appeal to the supreme court. and has filed a bond of s5,oo0 in each case.

Selective Draft Information.

When the selective draft was insti-
tuted during the war 1t was announced
that all information given by citizens
to draft boards would be held strictly
confidential. Much information was
given to these boards, particularly in
cases where exemption was sought.
Of the most private and personal ma
ture. 1t has been understood that
this information would never be dis.
closed in any circumstances, but now
an order OF court has been issued for
the production in divorce proceedings
Of the records of certain case. The
adjutant general Of the Army, on
whom the order is served, is reluctant
to obey on the ground that to do so
would be a breach Of confidence. It
may be that an appeal will be taken
to test thoroughly the right Of any
individual to secure access to the rec.
ords. Obviously. II It was stipulated
at the time the selective draft process
was instituted that all information
given would be held in confidence, the
government should be safeguarded
against the charge Of breach Of faith.
While most Of the information given
to the draft boards was Of a nature
that could be safely published without

"No-Accident Week /"

In an effort to improve traffic con-
ditions in this city, which lately have
been undeniably bad. with a heavy
toll Of casualties. the Commissioners
have proclaimed the week from De.
cembeE to IL, beginning next Mon.
day. as 'no-accident week" They
cah upon all citizens of the District
during that period Ito rigidly observe
all traffic regulations, cross streets
properly, to spread opaganda teach.
ing safety in the streets and to exer.
else the utmost precautions to prevent
accidents"
This is an injunction that should
apply to every week Of the year and
every day. But good results may
come from the concentration of pub
lie thought during the seven days
specified upon the rules and require
ments Of safety. Some advance NAV
be gained toward the formation OF
safety habits that If maintained will
greatly lessen. if not prevent, acct
dents in the future.
Much can be done by mutual In
struction in this effort to better the

injury, yet the fact remains that no.
body in authority can determine what
would constitute violation Of con-
fidence. or what items, If published,
might do injury to the interests of the
individual. Nor is it possible for the
court to safeguard this confidence. for
its agency might be sought to secure
information the disclosure of which
would be harmful. The point raised
by the adjutant general is Of impor-
lance and should be tested fully. While
this country does not expect ever
again to go to war or to be compelled
to recruit great armies by means Of
the selective draft, it cannot be as
sured against that necessity, and it
would be disastrous If the process Of
creating an army by this means were
checked by the public apprehension
that statements made supposedly in
confidence before draft boards would
ultimately become public, with the re-
suit Of embarrassment and injury.

Electric Economies Needed.

Interruptions of electric current are
still being suffered by residential con-
sumers who depend upon that form
of illumination. The producing com
bany states that this il due to the
overlooking of the wires mt the peak
hour" in the early evening when cur
rent IL being used everywhere tor
lights, for power and in some cases
for cooking. Already the company
has asked consumers to economics at
this time Of the day. The turning OF
of one lamp in each house or apart
ment in the city for two hours. from
$50 to 1880, would probably ease the
strain sufficiently to prevent blowouts
and consequent total loss Of current
for time.
It appears that the trouble. comes
chiefly from the fact that there is
not machinery enough to produce the
alternating current that is used in
house illumination. Other machinery
has been ordered, but has failed to
arrive. and until 1t comes and Is in
stalled there can be no sure relief
and no guarantee Of continuous cur
rent during the peak hour. It hai
been suggested that possibly the strain
on the production plant can be eased
by cutting of some Of the needless
commercial use Of current. But it is
explained that the kind Of current
used in sky signs and other business
displays is not the same as that ap
piled to the houses and does not come
from the same equipment.

PLANTATION of the election result:
Notwithstanding the solemn refer,
endum asked for by the President,
am of the opinion the league mao III
tie to do with the result. II the Vote
is analyzed it will be FOUND that the
republican ticket received the sose<
of men and women OF every conceiv'
able shade of opinion on the league
democrats as we'll as republicans. the
people wanted a change ana were
willing to trust to the future ana 20
the republican party to solve the
problems growing out of our interna-
tional situation and the war.
The republican party, then. when II
takes full charge. should be supported
by the men and women responsible
for putting it in power in every faiz
effort il makes to carry out the man
date received from the people.
That mandate is to be real In the
terms of the Chicago platform. Mr.
Harding pledged himself to that, as
did all of the stumpers who appeared
in his behalf in the campaign. He
and they interpreted the deliverance
in detail. Nobody voted in the dark
and those who voted for him did sc
with faith in him, and with approval
Of what he was standing for.
The merest glance shows that the
republican party faces a very large
order-maybe the largest it has faced
since it was called upon to save the
Union. It executed that order with
the aid Of many democrats. Among
the men who assisted in holding up the
head of Mr.. Lincoln was Stephen A
Douglas, who had been one Of his
contestants for the presidency. The
war was still in progress when Judge
douglas died; but up to his last mo-
ment that great democrat gave all
that was in him. to a cause he con
sidered above party.

Advice to the "A. A. A."

Members Of the District of Column
bia division Of the American Automo-
bile Association-the .world-famed
"A. A. A."-have been addressed by
the secretary in a circular calling
upon them to cooperate with the DO.
lice department Of Washington to
make the streets Of the capital safer
for all traffic. They are urged to
adopt this slogan:
Drive every day so that you may
look any traffic officer in the eye with
out a quake OF the heart or a qualm
of the conscience"
1t the motorists of Washington,
members of this organization and all
others, will adopt this rule of conduct
there will undoubtedly be fewer acct
dents, whether the chief burden of re.
sponsibility is on the motorist or on
the pedestrian. It may be that in a
majority of the mishaps that occur in
this city the pedestrians are at fault
through their own carelessness, but
it remains true that if every car were
driven in accordance with the well
known fact that pedestrians are care
less there would be fewer fatalities.
In the letter addressed to the men,
bers Of the "A. A. A. these sentences
also occur and are worthy of particu-
lar emphasis:
conscientious and law-abiding mo-
florists win drive as carefully when
out of sight and reach of policemen
as they would under surveillance"
Criminal carelessness' Is an ugly
term, but it is being applied nowadays
to the driver who takes chances In
addition to the opprobium of an ugly
term. motorists who take chances and
thereby take human life bring upon
themselves lifetime of regret
These admonitions apply to every
body in Washington who runs a ma
chine, whether member of the A. A.
A. or not. Those letters, in fact, might
be held to mean Accident Avoidance
Association" in which case all who
handle steering wheels and gas levers
should automatically be enrolled as
members.

Mr.. Harding and the Canal.

Mr.. Harding is returning from Pan.
anna with much important information
on the subject of the canal, its eff.
cheney, its operation, and what ex.
perience advises in the way Of i'm
provements. As the great work is
American in origin, in ownership and
in direction, much pride is felt at home
hare in its success, and much strong
support assured for keeping it well
abreast of all the latest requirements.
This is taken from a special to The
Star from Balboa, published the other
day:
1.-THE garrison here will be raised
from 5000 to $4,000 troops. Four six
teen-inch guns will be installed on
Pacific from Balboa, and the whole
system of Notifications, now actually
obsolete, will be brought up to ultra
modern efficiency"
This recalls rather startling1y the
fact that at the time we took the work
in hand it was proposed that the canal
be left unfortified. the argument be-
ing that as it was to serve the world
IN the worlds peaceful pursuits it
would not be attacked even in time
Of war.
But that millennialistic counsel was
rejected and the canal fortified. The
great war has Justified that action.
We see now that when hades breaks
loose in this world. and warning ma
tons get into their stride, nothing I'M
protected is safe.
The same argument that prevailed
in the terrifying of the canal runs in
the proposition to keep the fortifca-
tons up to date. Let US have the lat
est and the best of whatever may be
necessary to insure the safety Of the
canal in any and all circumstances.
As Mr.. Harding's recommendations
to Congress on the subject Of the canal
will evidently embrace more than the
proposition to re-enact the law allow.
ing free passage through the canal of
American coastwise ships, curiosity is
keen as to the terms Of the message.

conditions in the streets Of Washing
ton. That IL to xay. motorists can
help other motorists to better un-
Outstanding. not merely Of the rules
but Of the requirements Of public vel
fare. Pedestrians can aid one another
in the incubation Of safer habits In
the streets. At every street corner in
this city classes can be conducted In
the proper navigation Of the thorough
fares. In every garage lessons can be
given to chauffeurs in the best way
to navigate the streets without en-
dangering life and property. Perhaps
the best field Of all Is in the public
schools, where thousands Of children
can be reached with direct advice and
warnings.
There is no sharp division Of the
people into classes Of pedestrians and
motorists. Everybody who rides is
at some time or other g. pedestrian
in the sense of using the streets afoot,
and most pedestrians at one time or
another ride in motor vehicles. So II
is to the interest of everybody, what
ever the immediate condition, to es-
tablish a working relationship OF safe
ty in the streets. The most carerul
motorist may be the most careless
"jay-walker," and the most rightly
right pedestrian may, wnlie
riding, be the least regardful OF the
rights Of other people. After an
there is one paramount rule, and that
is that human life must be respected
ard preserved.
