OF fines for the Illegal sale Of intoxi-
eating liquors are yet in the hands OF
the sheriff of Bollinger county, and
it IS reported, that under the advice
OF the prosecuting attorney Of the
county, he fails and refuses to collect
the fines and makes no arrest Of the
| defendant.
If this be not so, the columns OF
this paper are free for any explana-
nation in regard to the same.
The public is very much interest
ed in knowing Why the money, so
justly due the public school fund of
this county. is not collected and
paid INTO the treasury Of the county.
And, It further explanation is
certainly due the public, from the
sheriff and prosecuting attorney,
and that is, why Il man who was
convicted more than year and 4
halfago for the illegal sale Of intoxi-
eating liquor, is permitted to walk
out Of the court ro oOm and remain out
from that time until now, and is now
said to be engaged in the same busi-
ness for which he was convicted and
fined, and hat, too, right at the court
house, where the county officials
have an opportunity to observe the
illegal and neiarIOus business as 1t
Is conducted openly and with Impu-
nifty and i'll defiance of the law.
While men and boys vino violate
the law in matters other than for
the sale of Intoxicating liquor are
not permitted to leave the court
room, after conviction, until their
fines have been paid or they are
taken to jail by the sheriff, there to
remain until discharged Ivy due pro-
cess Of law.
This matter Of clear partiality in
the treatment Of convicted men or
boys by officials whose duty it is to
enforce the law, deserves the attcn-
ton Of every law abiding citizen.
