Robert G. Loucks, Democratic NOM
Tree for congress from the Seventh dis
trict will combine his campaign and

demand that the criminal be produced.
They first called on the village mayor,
who told them that the marshal knew
who had thrown the stone and was
only waiting for some one to swear
out warrant, when he would promptly
arrest the guilty person. .5
This was encouraging, but when the
three Hudson men began to search for.
the marshal, they discovered that he
was a hard man to find. They inquired
Of residents where he was and were told
that he had been on the streets only a
few minutes prior to the arrival Of the
Hudson men.
Cannot Find Marshal =
They went to the marshal's house
three different times and to all public
places in the village. in quest Of him,
but he had disappeared. They searched
for him in vain for three hours.
Quale therefore believes that The
marshal and others in South Saltwater
are trying to save the offending per-
son from the consequences Of his crime
and popular indignation here is intensi-
fed. Quale and the Hudson authorities
will not stop their efforts to find the
criminal, and will not stop until he is
apprehended. They will appeal to the

The injury to Miss Quale's eye is
even more serious than was at first

bruised by the stone and it is feared
she may lose the sight Of that organ.
Her father will take her to an.eye spe-
