ON SHERIFF's APPOINTMENT

We understand that the Sheriffs office contemplates
placing Negro upon its staff This definite promise
in 1884 but did not materaze for diverse reasons How
ever we hope that our information is correct.
In placing Negro in such position his party
lions naturally of the first consideration but it is hoped
that when the Sheriff picks Negro for his office he will
base the qualifications solely upon political service rendered
This would not be fair to his office the In the ranks
of Negroes who vote the Democratic ticket there
who could such position with credit to the the
party and the office.
We know that impossible to satisfy the entire popu
laton but where the racial line and the party the

Acquitted nj Inquest


The officers were acquitted at an
inquest that left a very unpleasant
smell in the city. Coroner Otto
Mittlestadt conducted his hearing
on parity with what Is expected in
some southern communities. At
this time the three officers were
exonerated, and the victim declared
to have met his death by falling
down the stairs.
Not satisfied with the verdict of
the Coroner's jury the population
called EN- masse upon the prosecu-
tor who assigned Henry Clay Ag-
new to the case. With the assist
ance of j. S. Jackson, secretary of
the Urban League, evidence was
gathered that proved murder and
not an accident had happened.
AT the subsequent trial the ac-
cused refused to make statement,
obviously pinning their hope on
finding a prejudiced member of the
jury who would not convict white
police officer of Staying a Negro;
but true to a traditional spirit of
fair play that the northwest boasts
of, after only few hours deliber-
alton the jury found them guilty.
Witnesses had testified they were
given money to leave town so as
not to appear at the trial, and that
one was paid $250.00 to concoct
the story of passing at the time
and seeing Lawson fall. The In
dian woman testified that she left
Lawson on his feet with no blood
on him in the Jail basement, then
saw him twenty minutes later on
a stretcher covered with blood and
dying. The officers were found
guilty of manslaughter.
Noted for Cruelty
Officers Fred Paschall and Pat
Whalen were noted for their cruel
ty. Several committees of citizens
both white and colored from time
to time protested against the bru-
tality of the pair Most of their
victims were members of the sport
ing element, or floating workers.
They did, however, attack and Sc
verely beat Mr.. John Folling, a
highly respected citizen, feel
ing ran high on account of this
attack, and an attack upon the
person of seventy-two year old
John Wesley Jones who was badly
beaten. Protests against this or
gy of brutality were of no avail,
as Chief Sears evidently could not
or would not remedy the situation.
Many citizens who are well ac-
quainted with the chief for years
say he could do nothing about it,
because such action was in direct
opposition to the principles he had
displayed as a peace officer for
many years.

Upon arriving at the station, the

come q mdgnlIlCenL rum. MISS SOI
nell exhausts all her magic and in
some of the lesser parts she is ably
abetted by her associates, but their
labors are in vain in behalf of a
play that is stolid, confused and, for
the most part, dull.
History more than hints of grand
drama in the tortured love of Herod
and his beautiful queen, but Miss
Danes play is inferior to history in
that respect. It's beautifully cos
tuned people, moving in magnificent
surroundings, fall short of the emo
tional grandeur expected of them.
They are wraiths in whom great
fires seem to have been quenched,
wraiths left with a residue of many
words which drop cold and lifeless,
save when Miss Cornell is able to
give them her own warmth of spirit.
The disbelief inspired by the script
is furthered by the performance OF
Fritz Kortner in the role of Herod.
No trick which Mr. Kortner learned
in the Continental Theater, from
which he was graduated cum laude,
is missing in his portrait Of Herods
mad passion. But for all the trem-
bling hands, the shaking head and
all other gestures. Herod sternly re-
fuses to burst into the blazing life
which would make him worthy of
the great love of his passionate and
tormented queen.
Like Frederick Hebbel, whose play
she adapted, Miss Dane sticks close
to the accepted story of Herod and
Marianne. The former is pictured
as monstrously cruel, an ignoble
egomaniac swept to disaster by a
Jealous madness. His wife is the
reverse, a woman of completely
noble nature, inescapably caught in
her love for the despot. For all her
honor and her eloquence, she is
hopelessly inadequate to the task of
convincing Herod of her fidelity. She
remains inadequate through the dis
covery that on two occasions Herod
has ordered her slain should he not
return from the wars, personal and
otherwise, to which he always is
going.
After these two disappointments,
when Herod comes back to accuse
her of having seduced the viceroys
who should have been her execution
ers, she determines upon a drastic
procedure. In her death at his
hands, she thinks the king may
discover the injustice of his jealousy.
find peace in the memory of love
that he is unable to find in the init
macy of it.

HOLLYWOOD.
Yon can blame the movie gag
man for that expression that was
worn out month ago and for the
new one that will be parroted to-
morrow
Gagmen and scenario writer's are
always putting new clothes on old
expressions. They have to. because
pictures are filmed months ahead
OF their release and it would make
a picture look pretty silly. and dated,
to use the current slang. The movies
always must look ahead, leading the
way in conversational trends as we'll
as in fashions and fittings.
More popular expressions have
come from pictures than anywhere
else. From an early talkie, What
Price Glory" came "sez you" and
"sez fne," and, to the speech purists
(and many parentsD everlasting dis
may, "Oh, YEAH"
Mae West added a dozen express
sions, among them that much over
worked cum -up-and-see- ee-me" An
other OF Macs many cracks was that
one revealing world of insouciance:
"Beulah, peel me a grape"
An expression of greeting that is
certain to catch on is used by both
Cagney and O'Brien in ANGELS With
Dirty Faces" Said rapidly and with
out pause, 1t is:
What do you hear what do you
say" Much better than "Whadya
know" isn't it?
An inspired advertising writer
gave the language a lively one eight
years ago when he wrote for Little
Caesar" this descriptive line: He
could dish it out but he couldn t
take it," The line aptly fitted the
circumstances in the story and it has
been applied to many different cir
cumstances since.
Lines like these-traceable, no
doubt. to something Shakespeare
also revamped-are carefully thought
out and worked over by writer's. If
the dialogue is put into the right
players mouth, the writer may see
his expression click.
Players seldom contribute lasting
expressions to the dialogue of their
films. w. c. Fields, with his MY lit
tie chickadee!" and Hugh Herbert,
whose woo WOO" has captured the
adolescents' fancy, are the excep-
tions.
