REDEEM UPHELD.
Judge Hazen Refuses a Writ
of Prohibition.

Judge Hazen in the district court this
morning denied the writ of prohibition
in the Waldo-C Calvin case.
Calvin was subpoenaed by Assistant
Attorney A. L. Redden under the in
QUESTION law to give testimony against
liquor sellers. G. G. Clemens got out a
writ Of prohibition to prevent Redden
from compelling Calvin to testify on
the grounds that Redden in issuing a
subpoena exercised judicial authority
when he has no such right Judge Ha-
zen held that in Issuing subpoenas
Redden was not assuming judicial su-
thority but that the act was purely
ministerial and that writ of prohibi-
ton viii not issue against any but
judiciary officer. Judge Hazen anncunc-
ed that the question of whether Redden
had the right to subpoena witnesses
was not before the court and that ne
would make no decision on that point

The first that was seen by the throng
was little Allan hanging head down
with his left foot fast in the stirrup.
His head did not quite touch the
ground. He made no cry but tried to
extricate himself. Several men made
rush to catch the horse, but old Ches-

stood still until the boy was rescued.
