the sentiment expressed by that old

Truly, a sentiment for disarma-

OF course there Is the fact to
which attention was drawn In an
earlier article that in the indus

from the effort to give every avail

there has been exception taken to
the giving of positions to men who
never saw service at the front In

been carried through. In the last

been more jobs available to women.

We are not defending this man,
neither do we feel called upon to at
tack him through the columns OF this
paper, as he lies on sick bed with
an assassin's bullet in his body.
The good people in our community
are at last being aroused, we are
eratified to know that the stand We
took when poor Grady Hames was
murdered and the stand that we now
take, meets with the approval of the
law abiding AMI self respecting clti
zenship of this community.
We had a most pleasant interview
with the able stare attorney, Hon
George A. DeCottes who took the
oath Of Office This week. Mr.. De
Cottes assured us that his services
were at the disposal of our community
and that he was opposed to any and
all organized bands who believed in
taking the law into their own hands
Mr.. DeCottes impresses us as an able
and fearless officer and now that
Sheriff Morris has active support, we
confidently believe the band of thieves
which has infested this community
will be put in jail.
We are ready al all times to stand
with aE organizations that have for
their object law enforcement in an
orderly and legal manner. We are Up
posed to any and all bands, or clans
that believe that they have the right
to be both judge, jury and execution
ers.
