KANSAS CRY, Mo, March 30-Not
only the st. Clair county judges, but
J. D. Campbell, the clerk, and Hugh
Decker. the sheriff of that county, arc
liable to criminal prosecution for their
conduct in obstructing and evading
the process Of the United States court.
which ordered that q warrant be is
sued and tax levied to pay st. Clair
county's railroad debt. Judge Philips
said from the bench in the federal
court:
II have not evoked all the federal
laws in this st. Clair county case.
There is a criminal side of the stat
utes that covers this sort of a con-
spiracy against the administration of
the law. This course can not be to-
Grated any longer. I'll exhaust every
weapon in the whole armory Of justice
to put stop to this thing. The
county clerk and sheriff in aiding and
abetting the judges in obstruc:ing the
process Of the court have committed q
crime, for it is q criminal offense to
obstruct or impede the process or order
of the court"
The punishment for such an offense
as laid down by the statutes is inn
prisonment for not more than twelve
months in Jail or a fine of not to ex.
coed $500.
