Isaac Mayfeld Giues LalU in
Case; Near Accident Should
Be Sufficient to Parents to
Safeguard Their Children.

The narrow, escape Of a little boy
from serious accident, while prank
ing on, his bicycle Sunday afternoon
on east Main street, lodging in and
out in front of rapidly passing auto
mobiles, and that came under my OBJ
servation, has moved me tofagain is
sue warning and caution to parents
and to others having under their care,
children of tender age. and who cannot
and do not seem to appreciate the
danger that is almost continuously
about them, even in the face of recent
serious accidents, and deaths resulting
therefrom. ...,
They should be taught that much of
the law applicable to motor vehicles,
also applies to bicycles.
/ 1t is the duty of the operator of
every vehicle, Gncluding bicycles) on
the highways, and streets of, cities, to
observe the rules required of them by
law and common road ethics, and to
become acquainted with the necessary
signals required by law. And thus
be a loyal member of the gigantic
signal corps, into which every oper-
ator of a vehicle on the highways auto
matically becomes drafted.
1t has been my observation, that
drivers of many wagons continue to
appear on the highways at night
without the lights required by law and
this at their own and the hazard of
every other vehicle on the road, not
withstanding the repeated warnings
heretofore issued. It must be appar-
ent that such omission is wllful and
defiant. These are serious matters,
and the travelling public demands at
tention. Carelessness and the lack of
proper caution in the operation of We
hicles on the highways has become in
excusable. Very truly.

Justice of the Peace.

@. Did you ask him.?
A. don't think he did.
@. When you told Hyde about it he
tried to deny it?
A. Yes. "a,
Q. Did you make any investigation
to see. if Ridgway was telling the
truth or the girl was? so
A. | heard there was girl there.
g, As a matter, of fact. then, on
Ridgway's, testimony you disbelieved
Hyde. and without any investigation
you discharged Hyde?
A. That is correct.
@. Did you go to the Riverside to
see if there was a girl there, and if
there was, to arrest her?
A. No, this was 10 or II o'clock at
night and | went the next day and
the girl was gone. j,
@. Who did you see the next day?
A. ], seen the old lady.
@. What is her name?
A. ] think her name is Mrs. Willard.
@. Did you go and see her before
you discharged Hyde or afterwards -?
A.. Afterwards. / discharged Hyde
the next morning as soon as he came
down.
@. You discharged him because of
his inefficiency and crookedness and
you don't think he could be trusted?
A. did not. ..4 :
@. And he. isn't. worthy of being
trusted or being on police force.
in your judgment?
=, A.. Mr.. Hyde came in and begged
me for letter of recommendation,
that he was good policeman, and
he was good policeman, getting evil
dence and things like that, l done it
because felt sorry for the man. he
begged around and wanted to stay
here and so on and so forth, and |
told him there was nothing doing.
@. Did anyone hear the conversation
between you and Hyde at the time
you discharged him ? -.
A. No, l don't know that they did
@. Where We're you at the time you
discharged him?
A. In the city hall.
Q. Who was this party that told
you about the diamond ring?
A. His name is Fields / believe, he
runs a second hand store over there
on the old plunge. they call it.
9. How many police do you think
this town should have to really keep
the town in good condition? 49,.
A. Well it ought to have at least
seven or eight or nine police. The
residence part gets no protection on
earth because you cannot, get out
there. there is so many automobiles
and stuff like that that a man with
or OF inh
two in day time, is just like hunting a
needle in the hay stack. You cannot
do. it. The town is getting to be
pretty big town. -.
@. Couldn't it be handled by chain
gang and when these floaters come in
Immediately grab them?
A. have had lots of them in iail
that way and they say you cannot get
enough of them at one time to nav
to work them on the streets, and they
have nothing for them to do. That
was my idea here in the fall | hac
four or five at one time and worked
them on the streets, and they let most
OF them. get away until it got down
to where it would not pay. | have a
man in Jail now / have had there for
thirty days and there is nothing for

Q. understood you to say few
minutes ago that you had made a num-
ber OF arrests and had the evidence
but could not convict them? ....- -.
A. No. did not say had evidence,
it was just bluff at it. You can go
down and pick them up and they can
prove they have worked dav and night
amongst themselves. and l don't know
them, especiallv among the colored fel-
lows. They will float in and out.
