EARLY the morning of the shooting,
my friend. Gross, and 1 were standing
at Seventh and S streets, when
Holmes drove up in his car and in

Freeman came up, and Holmes gave
him a dollar with which to buy bot
tie of liquor. He tried to get some
nearby, but failed. and the four of us
drove to Brooks court, between o and

and Freeman got out, after putting
out the lights on the car. They soon
came back with some liquor, and we
started Oft again.
Near North Capitol and p streets a.
policeman yelled: Hey At the same
time the officer jumped to the running
board and hit me on the arm. Holmes
started speeding the car up and the
policeman dropped off. We sailed
down North Capitol street and Holmes
asked if the policeman was gone.
Freeman told him that he thought he
was on the back of the car With
that Holmes handed Freeman his re-
volver and told him to knock him
Off Just before this We had heard
several shots from the rear and that
was why Holmes ordered the police
with the gun in his hand, with his
back to the front of the car and
pumped three bullets through the
back cushions. Homes said: is he
off yet Yes responded Freeman,
Did you kill him" asked Holmes. T

CIVIC RESPONSIBILITY

An imperative duty deVoVes upon every AIneTI-
citizen. With universal suffrage there were claims
that political and government conditions would be
greatly improved. This is possible only as the
thoughtful citizen considers voting serious matter
and not alone registers and votes but sees to 1t that
negligent votes around him do their duty.
The indifference today Of citizens qualified to vote
has become an actual menace to our Institutions II
would seem that the loyal and intelligent people re-
viewing the results of failure TO vote ct both primary
and general elections would awaken from their
apathy. Returns from the polls throughout me cour-
try show clearly that the radicals and their following
do not neglect the privilege, and the vote further den
onstrates that have thus been elected to some OF
tn highest offices in government by small MINOR
