Halloween Party

Miss Verona Pratt enter
tanned several friends Saturday
evening at a Halloween party.
About sixteen enjoyed the hos
pitality of the evening. The
house was very prettily decor
ated with Jack O Lanterns in
every conceivable place, the
dim light giving the room a
very ghostly appearance. The
evening was spent in playing
Halloween games, telling for
tunes and ghost stories. About
10 o'clock a delicious two course
supper was served by Mrs.
Pratt and Mrs. P. E. Robinson.
After supper dainty little
souvenirs in the shape of Jack
O Lanterns were given to each
guest. The rest of the even
ing was spent in playing games
and several musical selections
were given, after which the
guests departed, voting it one
of the most pleasant Halloween
parties ever given.
Frank Miles returned from
st. Louis Saturday evening,
where he had been spending a
week at the worlds fair.
The R. r. G. crowd that went
to Modale Saturday evening to

March term.
At the September term 1904
the cases againstG w. Walters,
Benjamin Coffeen and Arthur
McDaniels were dismissed by
the county Attorney. The
county Attorney elected to
stand on the demurrer to the
Indictment against H. H. Nc
Kinney. Oscar Schevalier was
tried by M. 3. Bailey and L. w.
Fallon and sentenced to the
Penitentiary, the only convic-
ton ON trial of a felony. John
Smith pleaded guilty and was
fined $500 and four months
in county jail.
The further investigation
shows that thirty-three persons
have been arrested under in
dictments found during Mr..
Fallon's term of office, and that
there are twenty-five indict-
under which no arrests
have yet been made, making a
total of indictments found dur
ing MIR. Fallon's term of office
so far, fifty-five, with the ten
cases on the docket when he
took the office which raises the
number to sixty-five, out of
which he succeeded in having
one man who stood trial sent
enced to the Penitentiary, and
three men who plead guilty
sentenced to the Penitentiary,
say nothing of the cases on
Why did you not in
vestigate the records, Brother
McCabe, for your nephew and
give these facts to the people
as they exist? In your nephew's
letter to the Persia Globe and
Dunlap Reporter he says that
you refuted the Nucleus article
some two months ago.
Now, the records further
show that seven of these in
dictments were found against
people for keeping nuisances,
at the August term 1903 of the
District Court, and that demur-
rers were sustained to six of
these indictments and we VEN
ture to say that there is not a
Justice of the Peace in the
county who would not have
known that these indictments
were defective for the reason
that nowhere do they charge
that the defendants had for
sale, kept for sale, or did sell
Intoxicating liquors. Here is
one of the indictments:
"District Court of the County
of Harrison.
State of Iowa
against
George w. Gregg.
"The Grand Jury of the
County of Harrison, in the
name and by the authority of
the state of Iowa accuse George
w. Gregg of the crime of Keep
ing and maintaining a nuisance,
committed as follows:
"The said George w. Gregg
on or about the Goth day of
June, in the year of our Lord
one thousand nine hundred and
three in the County aforesaid,
and on divers other days and
times between the goth day of
June, 1908, and the finding of
this Indictment, the said
George w. Gregg did erect, es-
tablish and continue and use a
building, erection and place,
with intent and for the purpose

ing liquors, contrary to and in
violation of law.

article headed, "Tom Denni-
sons attempt to defeat Fallon,
by claiming that County At
torney has cost $1500.00 more
than salary" and yet there is
no charge except by intimation
that Dennison ever spent a
cent or ever will spend a cent
to defeat a man so unfit to fill
the position of County Attorney
as the nephew of the editor of
the Logan Observer.
AS we are informed, Mr..
Dennison's attorneys in this
county, Messrs Cochran and.
Egan are bending every effort
to elect Mr.. Fallon to this
office this fall. Why is this,
Brother McCabe, if Dennison is
trying to defeat Fallon? We
wish to give a little of the his
tory of this man Fallon's record
during his term of office as
county Attorney for the past
twenty-five months, from a
personal examination of the
records Of Harrison County.
First, we find that when he
took the office there were ten
cases on the criminal docket at
the January term, 1908, five
under indictments, three APP
peals from Justices of the
Peace, and two held to the
Grand Jury. At this term Of
Court there were two trials
had.
In the trial of the case of
the State of Iowa VS. j. Wilder
Mr.. Fallon was assisted by Mr..
Egan. Mr. Wilder was charged
with assault with intent to do
great bodily harm, and was
convicted of a simple assault
and was fined $4,000 and the
Governor paroled the defend
ant. The case of the State of
Iowa againt Henry Wilinga
was tried and the defendant
acquitted. Thomas Frank
pleaded guilty to Larceny and
was sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for eighteen months. We
will call attention to this man
Frank later on. That was all
that was done at the January
1903 term of the District Court
aside from the indictments
found.
At the August term 1903
Alfred Pardun was sent to the
Insane Asylum.
At the November term 1903
the case of the State VS. w. w.
Holmes and Lewis Felts were
dismissed by the County Attor-
ney.., The sureties on G. w.
Walters bond were released.
Banty Brown, Billy Houts and
S. |. King filed demurrers to
the indictments which were
sustained. Ed Young pleaded
guilty to a defective Indictment
and went to Jail. This ended
the November term.
At the January term 1904,
the cases against Arthur Gray
bill and Alfred Pardun were
dismissed by the county Attor-
ney. George w. Gregg filed a
demurrer to the Indictment
which was sustained. John A.
Parsons plead guilty and was
sent to the Penitentiary. W..
P. Morgan plead guilty to vag-
rancy and was sent to the coun-
ty Jail for ninety days. VIM.
Mulloney plead guilty and was
sent to the Penitentiary for
two years. This ended the
January term.
At the March term 1904, H.
H. Mckinney filed a demurrer
to the Indictment, which was
sustained. Thomas Seayers
plead guilty and was fined
$4,000. j. H. Sherwood stood
trial, and this is the only case
that Mr.. Fallon undertook

Burglary, and here it is word
for word as it appears of re-
cord.
"District Court of the County
of Harrison.
State of Iowa
against
Thomas Frank
"The Grand Jury of the
County of Harrison, i'm the
name and by the authority of
the State of Iowa, accuse
Thomas Frank of the crime of
Burglary, committed as follows:
"The said Thomas Frank on
or about the 30th day of No
vember i'm the year of our Lord
one thousand nine hundred and
two in the County aforesaid.
The store building of John Ben
son, there situate, in the nihgt
time of the said day, then and
there unlawfully, feloniously
and burglarously did break and
enter, with intent then and
these the personal goods, chat
tells and property of said John
Benson, then and there in the
said store building being found,
then and there feloniously and
burglarously to steal, take and
carry away, contrary to the
Statute and dignity of the State
Iof Iowa.
~. w. Fallon,
County Attorney"
In this indictment there is
no charge that there was in
the building any goods, either
stored or kept for sale, or that
the building was on this earth,
or that the defendant did any
thing except in the words of the
Indictment "The store building
of John Benson there situate in
the night time of the said day."
Think of it! How could the
night time be of the same day?
Which was the day and which
was the night. Then he goes
on to say: "Then and there
unlawfully, feloniously and
burglarously did break and
enter" What does he mean?
That be so broke into the day
or into the night? Well, uncle
John, you had better explain
this and tell the people again
that Dennison wants to defeat
a man without ability for the
Iposltion to which he is asking
the votes of the electors, ex-
cept when writing letters to
the Persia Globe and other
papers he can tell them that
the Observer looked up his re-
cord, about which he above all
men should know, and contents
himself with the Observers
version of his official career.
Dennison paying out money to
defeat a man like this! Where
in all Iowa could he find a man
more incompetent to prosecute
him?
The contract which he refers
to in the Persia Globe and
which the Observer mentions
and sets out a copy of as being
entered into in April, 1902, re-
fers only to warrants then be-
ing contested in the case of
Bartel Nelson VS. Harrison
County, and the attorneys
services for such work as the
records will show in the Audit
or's office, were settled and
paid in December, 1902, before
Mr.. Fallon went into office, and
since he went into office he has
tried nothing for the county
alone except the one case
against Sherwood which he
undertook to try and which was
taken away from the jury by
the Court and the county has
paid other attorneys S15OO.OO
