is one of the best. known in the state
Caldwell has been demanding that Col

ment of the hotel for joint purposes,
and Colson has insisted that there was
no joint being operated there There
has been a belief in the minds of a
good many people that Caldwell was
simply bluffing and that he did not

building. Caldwell showed last night
that he was not blufing.
He kicked open the front door of the
Joint about $50 ia. the evening when
the place was filled with drinkers He
was within a very few minutes the
master of the place. Everybody took
to their heels. He at once commenced
smashing things right and left, and
when he was through there was MOTH
ing in the way of liquor left in the
place

of excitement here. because all the
parties are so well known. The officers
are in sympathy with the jointists in
this county.
