Tho news has Just leaked out that
J. W. Lawton, chief of Medford's fire
department, was arrested In Ashland
and fined i'i early In July for not
having a state license on the depart
ment runabout car he uses In his
duties. And ever since, the Medford
city officials have been wondering If
a big fire broke out in Ashland and
the department of this city was called
on ror aid whether the Medford fire
apparatus would be permitted to en
ter Ashlund without having a state
license for each pieco of apparatus.
The unnelghborly act of the Ash
land police officials has aroused
much unfavorable comment In offic
ial circles ill Medford. It was on a
Sunday afternoon that the arrest was
made, Chief Lawton having driven
over to that city to enjoy an hour or
two Jn the park. It had never oc
curred to the chief or any other city
official that the fire department ap
paratus should have state auto
licenses. In fact the question prob
ably never came up anywhere in the
state until this Ashland episode.
When an Ashland policeman sought
out Chief Lawton and asked If he
was the driver of the car, the chief
explained who he was, where the car
belonged, etc., and stated that con
sidering the friendly relations be
tween Ihe two neighboring. cities it
hardly seemed proper to him that he
should be arrested for not having a
license for the piece of apparatus.
Tbo policeman then called up the
Ashland chief of police at the latter's
home and put the matter up to him.
The polico chief refused to come
down town hut told the policeman
the matter was purely up to the po
lice judge.
The matter finally ended by tho
Ashland police judge fining Chief
Lawton five dollars. The chief frank
ly admitted that ho was off duty for
a few hours, made a simple explana
tion and paid the fine. For some
time nfterwards it was supposed that
the fine might be remitted, but up to
date Ashland still has the $5.
Chief of Polico Timothy, who Is
(10 yenrs old, contemplated spending
a few hours In tho Ashland park In
the near future, but now fears he
may be pinched there for not having
a draft card. , ; 4

the (Icrinans continued to launch yes

imperative need of holding the Chaul-ncs-Koye-Noyott

them.
The (ieriuau resistance nlotig this

the enemy in his retirement from the

Kn-Fardenois. When these two

the- entire front fell in. The same ef

PARIS, Aug. 13. Whether the
allied forces, reinforced bv the troops
which have been and are pouring
toward the front, resume their drive
or not. the fact remains thut the Ger.
mans have been completely out
maneuvered and a victory has been
won.
As the result of the continuous
pressure exerted by General Humbert
on the line of the hills .' .'.illicit and
Roulogne-La-Grasse, the fall or Las
slgny is Imminent, and It may even
have occurred already. The enemy
defense is now being offered by mo
bile groups of machine gunners. At
the came time the Germans arc bom
barding the Trench rear with their
field guns.
, Prisoners taken yesterday, most of
them quite young, said that rein
forcements for von 1 In tier jvore not
expected and that tho troojfs on the
enemy line were only thero to cover a
withdrawal.
Speculation is rife as to Marshal
Koch's next move whether be will
continue to press his advantage on
the Somme and the Oise or strike
elsewhere along the front.
Speaking of tho war and nearly
every day we hear somebody mention
it, Gencraf Reed and Goneral Wright
are corps commanders in France,
while General Winn is a division
commander.
