From May 22, 1914 - For some time past, there have been rumors here that Policeman Thurman was in danger of assassination, that he was a marked man, an officer doomed to death by the lawless element, the boot leggers, the whiskey sellers and their following. Groups of citizens get together, discuss present conditions, and invariably close the discussion with the agreement that Thurman is in danger of assassination, for the sole and simple reason that he doing his duty without fear or favor. Such a condition is an indictment against the whole community. It is a reflection upon every decent citizen of Glasgow. It means that law and order is in a death-grapple with the lawless forces that will stop at nothing to achieve their ends - that even murder is in the air, and is being considered - that it is proposed to sell whiskey in Glasgow, no matter what law or public sentiment is.
