1t appears that the report that the
injunction cases in Buchanan county
had been>abandoned by the plaintiffs,
was at least IN part unfounded. The
last issue of the Bulletin Journal says;
Judge Plat returned Tuesday to close
up the work of the spring term of court.
After finishing some probate work, the
injunction cases from Lamont were
taken up. These were State vs.. Fred
Wasmer, State vs.. VIM. Andrews, State
vs.. Frank Allstine. In each case q
temporary injunction was asked pro-
hibiting the further sale of liquors.
Little defense was made except by
Andrews, who attempted to show that
he was conducting billiard hall; that
no liquor had been sold or given away
by him, although he had it there for
his own use, and that he did what he
could to stop others from bringing 1t
there to drink. The judge granted
temporary Injunction in each case.
This closed the work for this term, the
Rowley creamery case having been
continued.
