feaviyWnesses Testify That Liquor Is Freely Sold

Whatever delusions the proprietors
Of the so-called " clubs" OF the city
may have entertained in relation to
their immunity from prosecution as
dispensers OF intoxicating drinks were
rudely dispelled last Friday afternoon
by the action OF City Attorney A. L.
Taylor in swearing out warrants for
Joseph Walton, John D. Lloyd, J. A,
Armor and M T McCunnin, charging
them with violating section one Of ordi-
nance seven and section eleven Of orSii-
nance thirteen, which provide that It
shall be unlawful to sell or give away
spurious or malt liquors Of any kind
within the corporate limits OF the city,
Walton and Lloyd were taken before
Squire Minor and ,arraigned for trial,
McOunniff's case being carried over un-
til 10 O'Clock the following morning.
The evidence against Walton and Lloyd
was direc. and convincing and they
were I'd; Judged guilty, their fines being
assessed At $500 each. A motion for an
appeal to the county court WAS filed by
defend ants' attorney and their bonds
fixed At t6OO each, which the statute
prescribes shall be at least twice the
amount OF the fine from which the ap-
peal is taken.
City Attorney Taylor stated at the
outset that he was " loaded for bear"
and the vigor with which he has been
going after alleged violators OF the law
and the evidence Of their guilt he has
produced, proves that he was not mis-
taken when he made the assertion.
Although information was filed in
about thirty cases, twenty-four Of
which have been tried In Squire Minors
court, with the result that the defend-
mt in each case was edjudged guilty
