ALLOW FOR FUTURE TRAFFIC
Count Of Automobiles on Number of
Roads In Tennessee Shows Sur
prisinQ Fact.

Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
In building road liberal allowance
should be made for future increase in
traffic, says the bureau of public roads
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. A traffic count conducted
by the bureau in cooperation with
Tennessee officials on number Of
roads in Dawson county, in which
Nashville is located, shows surprising
facts when compared with a similar
count in 1915. During this period an.
tomobile registrations have doubled,
while the number Of motor vehicles on
the roads is five times as great as In
1916. In 1916 horse-drawn and motor
vehicle traffic were almost equal in
volume. In 1921 horse-drawn traffic
had increased only slightly in volume
and constituted 10 per cent Of the
traffic motor vehicles constituting "a
per cent.
Observations in this and other coun-
tries lead to the conclusion that vol
ume of traffic may increase in much
greater proportion than the number of
motor vehicles and will also depend
to large degree on the condition of
Improvement of the road and on the
economic conditions in the adjacent
territory.

The rare judicial ability which
James E. Garrigues has displayed
during his eighteen years contin-
uous service on the bench in Colorado
eight years as district Judge and ten
as member of the State Supreme
Court-have caused his friends and
admirers throughout the state to in
sist that he be II candidate this year
for the Republican nomination for JUS
tice of the State Supreme Court for
the ten-year term. Judge Garrigues'
name will be presented TO the Repub-
lican State Assembly on Aug. and to
Republican voters in the primary,
Sept. u. His friends are confident
that his long experience in judicial af-
fairs and his proved ability Will result
in his nomination and election.
Before reaching the bench, Judge
Garrigues served two terms Of three
years each as district attorney of the
Eighth Judicial District, which at that
time comprised the counties of Weld,
Jackson, Larimer, Boulder, Morgan,
Washington, Yuma, Phillips, Sedgwick
and Logan. -, -l.--'-.i--' 77--'''''-
At the expiration of Judge CARR
gues gecond term as district attorney,
the Thirteenth Judicial District was
formed out of part of the Eighth, leav-
ing the counties of Boulder, Larimer,
Weld md Jackson. ". This was the pc
riod of the development OF the great
agricultural district of northern Colo
rado, railway, reservoir and ditch con-
struction greatly increasing litigation.
To relieve the press of business be-
fore the courts, Governor Peabody ap-
tional judge for the Eighth district. he
served until the next election, and
then was elected for the unexpired
term of four years. At it's expiration,
lie was nominated and elected for q
third term of six years.
In 1910, while serving as district
judge, Judge Garrigues was nominated
by the Republican party for justice of
the State Supreme Court In the face
Of Democratic landslide, he was one
Of two Republican candidates for state
offices to be elected.
While district Judge, Judge Garri-
gues had won wide reputation for
the rapidity with which he had cleared
the docket and had put the court in a
position to decide cases soon after fl
ing. When Judge Garrigues became
chief Justice of the State Supreme
Court, a similar condition confronted
him. The court was two years behind
on Its docket; the number Of undeter-
mined cases before it were popularly
referred to as "the mountain" As
chief Justice, Judge Garrigues quickly
remedied this situation. In less than
two years, as a result of the most un-
firing labor, the members Of the court
under the direction of Chief Justice
Garrigues had cleared the docket. For
the first time in years the court was
ready to transact business punctually.
Judge Garrigues' friends believe
that his record is such as to make him
the strongest possible nominee for jus
tice Of the State Supreme Court, and
that If he should receive the Repub-
ncan nomination in the September pri-
mary, his election in November Is as
sured.

POOR JUDGMENT.

81
HE release Of George Cox, held in the county
Jail on felony charge for one thousand
dollars ball., was an action that has aroused the
Indignation Of every citizen who has followed his
case, The West Vlrginian surely questions this
Judgment that permits the release Of man who
is either insane and should be in the state instu-
ton at Weston, or who is dangerous criminal
and should not be abroad to terrorize and perhaps
main and kill innocent persons, ia
This man, who was SO cruel to his own mother
less children that the local court took them awsy
from him and gave them to the care Of their grand
parents, was thought by some at that time to BIO
insane because Of the tnhuman yiciousness OF his
actions. When the court took hand however the
man cooled down and became normal, fcuriously
enough His Insanity returned however some
days ago when he attacked the aged grandfather
here In the city and SO brutally kicked and beat the
old man that he was carried to a hospital where
for time his life hung in the balance. For days
the poor victims aged wife, and the four grand
children, agonized over the sunerings Of the In
jured man. This old man was barely able to bs
removed from the hospital when the man who SO
l1urderously assaulted him was released on thou
sand dollars ball!
What must be the feeling Of this little group Of
people the grandfather, grandmother and the four
little ones to realize that the man who has ter
rorized them is abroad again? II George Cox is
insane he should be in Weston. II he is not in.
sane, he should be In jail and remain there until
he can be placed elsewhere, where he cannot
wreak his criminal temper on the innocent and
