Aberdeen Ruralist, /: The cases
against ex-AuJitor Nipple and Ander-
son, a clerk in the state auditors office,
have been dismissed. The republican
newspapers are claiming this was done
by Gov. Lee. These r~ascally editors
know better. The truth Is the republi-
can states attorney OF Hughes county
claiming under the rulings OF Judge
Gsffy "a republican, in the Mayhem case,
it would be useless to prosecute Nipple
and Anderson, refused to carry them in
to court. Accordingly they were dis
missed. Gov. Lee still holds it is a
crime to embezzle state funds, but he is
hardly in condition to 60 into court with
both judge and states attorney against
him.
