HORSE THIEVES
HAVEN RAlDED

What was apparently intended
as a haven for horse thieves,
where stolen animals could be kept
until disposed of, was raided yes
terday by party of deputy sher-
ifs, headed by Sheriff e. d. Glib
son, of Adams county, who had
warrants for Chris Willis and Les
ter Vancleve. Another suspect
named Node Hardesty was wanted,
but he was missing and is sup
posed to have gone to Canada.
The men were captured on
ranch three miles from the Nine
Mile dam. The place is so situated
in a bend of the river that it is
impossible to approach without be-
ing detected, and the officers rush
ed the house. No resistance was
offered.
The men were wanted for the
theft of a number of horses from
farms near Kahlotus. Five were
taken from A. j. Williams and two
from E. Weir. Four of the animals
were found in the barn, Willis
claiming that they had been left
there to be cared for. Vancleve
and Willis were locked in the
county jail.

Anything
ON SUNDAY
DRUGGISTS STOCKED UP WITH
GOODS GENERAL MERCHANT
is NOT ALLOWED TO HAM
DIE ON PENALTY OF AR
REST.

If it is unlawful for a Main av.
clothing dealer to sell suit cases,
suspenders, collar buttons and
things of that sort on Sunday, why
is it not also illegal for drugstore
proprietors to handle the same
goods on Sunday?
That is question the merchants
recently prosecuted for remaining
open on Sunday would like to have
legal gentlemen answer. They
have been shut up and the drug.
stores, which are permitted to re-
main open, are stocked up with the
goods the clothing man depends
upon largely in his business.
The Sunday law cOntemplates
that drugstOres shall be open only
for sale of medicine, but this rule
is stated to be openly violated in
Spokane. 1t is now almost possible
to get anything in drugstore from
a pill to gang pillow, Sunday or
any other day But the ordinary
merchant who makes a living by
selling similar lines of goods is
closed by law and fined if he sells
