LET Us NAVE Law AND o0oeR

EDITOR JOURNAL: The trial of the
State Va. Hartman and Hartman il
quite lingering one, and from facts
CLEANED from different sources . con-
viction should be certain. Aud more
over, about five or six cases cnuld he,
and should be, made against The par.
tics for openly and defiantly violating
the law while being tried for the first
0iiense
To say that it Is not the wish of all
good and Law abiding citizens of Saline
county-who are i'm the majority Of
cOu'se-to punish these parties, il Ger
taiDly absurd. These persons never
engaged in the liquor traffic until the
prohibition law came In force, at which
time all respectable saloons were clos
ed, and this advantage to make money
unlawfully was taken by Hartman.
Aud not only that, his house was con-
tinually open night and day, thronged
with men; bOisterolls and prOfAne
language WAS freely used, aud the place
was cORlmOn and notorious nuisance.
This caused the City Council to pass
IN ordinance, In accordance with the
temperance law, which should be done
by all cities In the State.
II Is thought by some persons, who
are Of communist turn Of mind, that
the county officials will get worried
and their funds be exhausted by en-.
forcing the law, and that In case Of
conviction, the eOnvicts being poor,
the Board Of County Commissioner
will let them 10 Scott free and not feed
them ut the expense Of the county.
This would be q nice ~ precedent for
Saline county,! am certain people
who openly violate any law are prone
to violate another, and II always saves
expense to keep such people In custody.
Suppose the State should open the
penitentisry and allow the convicts
therein to roam the country ct large,
would this meet the appreciation Of the
Taxpayers? Manifestly not The Law
provides that the costs in the prOsecu-
ton Of these cases shall become lien
on the property wherein this nuisance
Is carried on, and this should be CON-
piled with to the letter, and the par
ties convicted should be confined until
they, or their pals. or their sympthiz-
ers. pay the fine for every Offense 30

highest esteem in his neighborhood. She
was the mother Of large family, and dur
