K. LAW ENFORCEMENT SPIRIT.
. 1
^itii Sentiment Said to Be Changing in
South Carolina.
man Columbia, March 1.?That the senurn_
timent of the people oMhe State has
undergone a great! change in favor
fc/A iO~ ? gold
of the enforcement of law is clearly
an. shown by an examination of the regen
Porte of the solicitors, as contained
s: iif the report of the attorney general
that to the general assembly,
japt. During 1914, 2,591 cases were re;hio
ported. Of this number there was a
last- total of 1,634 convictions, or 63 per
y at I cent. During 1915 a total of 3,210
i of- cases were reported, with 2,121 Conines
victions, or 66 per cent. The inene
crease in the nuihber of cases
In- brought to trial in 1915 over 1914
,000 is 619 or 24 per cent. This increase
in the number of cases brought
low- to trial is accounted for by
part reason of the fact that the peace of
part ficers of the State have been enneu
couraged in their work for the enforcement
of law, because of the fact
that they were backed up in their
dge, work by public sentiment, which senans;
timent was expressed in the election
,035 of Gov. Manning, who during his
Far- campaign, expressed the determinatirtn
+r? onfr?rr>o all laws ,
1 ttY* W1V/U tv WU1VA VV MAI ?? f M* r
ons; The governor has made it clear to
3,- the officers that he will back them
ons; up in the performance of their duties
in enforcing the laws,
din- . That the governor has made good
in his promise to enforoe the law is ^
, 3,- clearly shown in the reports from the *
solicitors. The Increase in the numurg,
ber of cases brought to trial, and the ^
convictions had, does not indicate
oast more violations of law, but rather
, to that the violators are certain of pun- =
ship ishment under the present administration.

>hio, A young man trying to get a cersech
tain number on the telephone had
suf- been repeatedly told by central that
iner the line was busy, relates the Louissuf
ville Times. Persistency finally won,
and the young man heard the receiviow
er click as a party picked it up. .
ude; "Hello, hello," said the young man.
"There's your party," said central,
nan, "Hello, hello," said the young man,
his his voice rising, but he got no further
than this, for he was interrupted
how by a loud squeaky voice, apparently /
>mic that of an old woman. "I'm
deaf, and can't hear nothing," n
ling came the voice over the line, follow- 1
ed by the bang of the receiver.
