r GOVERNOR WANTS LAWS ENFORCED. Plan to be Effective Whereby State and County Authorities Will Cooperate. Columbia, June 24.?In order to ^ 'perfect a plan for mutual cooperation in the enforcement of the law in South Carolina, complaints of the violation of which are coming to him from various parts of the State. Governor Cooper tonight addressed a letter to the sheriffs of the State calling them together with the foui*teen solicitors and foremen of the various county grand circuits, to meet with him in the hall of the House of Representatives here July 15, at noon. The text of the governor's letter folio Vv-s : > ''Complaints nave come lu me from various sections of the State i* indicating that the prohibition lawis being more or less generally violated. It appears too, that the jail population of the State is increasing, .and that the homicinde record is distressingly large. - - - J - -L - J 1 "In view ot tfte lacis staieu, <tnu of the additional fact that after July 1, we shall have a new situation in regard to prohibition, I am asking all the sheriffs, the solicitors, and all the "foremen of grand juries in South Carolina to meet with rrte in the hall of the House of Representatives, Columbia, at noon on the 16th day of -Tulv. for the purpose of discussing ^ V 7 ? law enforcement. "As a citizen and as a chief executive, I am intensly interested in "the upholding of law. Hence, I am calling1 upon you, as the chief executive officer in your county, to meet with me so that we may effect some plan for mutual cooperation. I am ^ > convinced that it is necessary xur us to arouse public opinion in order that we may have the most effective possible enforcement of our laws, for as you well know, laws and their en^ forcement are but expressions of the r public's will. It seems to me that a meeting of the sheriffs, the foremen of the grand juries, the solicitors and certain others directly interested will result in much good. We can, by working together, create a public sentiment that will hold up the law breaker as an enemy to society. It as also necessary for the State and p county authorities, and for the authorities of the several counties, to ^ . cooperate. Isolated effort^ while laudable, is not so effective as a ?onorfli Affnrt. Should we all have , & common purpose, then each can inculcate in his community a whole-some sentiment that will result in absolute vindication of the laws. "I hope you will be able to attend this conference. Please notify the foreman of your grand jury of the meeting, and urge him, and any others you care to designate to be presI ^ ?nt. The State's welfare depends up| on the security and happiness of its individual citizens, and the security and happiness of its citizens depends upon the enforcement of law. Your *AnV ? not an easv one, but you can % * make it much easier, and make, the results of your efforts far more satisfactory, if you can effect a general demand among your constituents for the eradication of the men who strike at the very roots of our social system by defying the laws we have made. "I shall be glad to have any suggestions you care to make, either in writing before the conference or verbally in the meeting." " CLEMENCEAU POINTS DANGERS STILL IN PATH OF PEACE ^ "We Have Waited 49 Years for This Hour."?''Keep Your Powder Dry," is Admonition. Paris, Monday, June 23.?"We have waited 49 years for this moment," exclaimed Premier Clemenceau as he opened the fateful dis i.L-i n patch announcing mai ucu u?uj ^ would sign the treaty at the me?t* ing of the council of three this afternoon. f ? "For; 49 years," he continued, ' w,;,the mailed fist of th reitre (Gerf * man trooper) who has governed Germany has menaced the world. Whether the man's name was Bismarck or William 11, it was still the sam* reitre of the middel ages sol diery and drunk with pride. "Be careful; keep your powder dry. Be careful. Remind the world that it is living on a barrel of that powder. "This reitre's dogma was that ^ might is right, that a state's only ^ obligation is its own interest, that treaties do not exist when they clash with the interest of a state and get rich by any means. We know from witnesses who were at the side of William II, that when he learned of the Sarjevo tragedy, he who posed as a keeper of the peace, cried: " 'The hour has struck. Now we shall see what an army is.'"

Only the high banks of the cut through whicr the train was passing saved the | coaches from toppling over wher the rear coaches slid into the hole 'gouged in the roadbed by the blast as it swept the baggage car out from the train. The baggage car probably saved the others from going into Pelican river, which was onlj 200 feet ahead of the train when the storm came. Twisted across the rails, the baggage car effectually halted the rear coaches, which then toppled over against the bank, remaining almost upright. * * ?*? ? ? * SCHEDULE.
