MORE TROUBLE
FOR M'KIBBON
ALLEGED sooT-LEaeER CHARGED
WITH SECURING MONEY UN-
DER FALSE PRETENsEs.
CASES BEFORE THE GRAND JURY
Efforts VIII Be Made Ts Get
True Bills For SELLING
LiquorA

Joe McKibbon, who was nned $50
in the City Court Monday on . charge
of selling liquor. and s25 on n charge
Of vagrancy. is in more trouble. haV-
ing been landed in jail Monday night
on two warrants. charging him with
obtaining money under false pre-
teses.
The two warrants were sworn out
before ESQ. Erwin by F. F. ClaWson,
and McKibbon was arrested and
placed in jail by Deputy Goad. Mr..
Clawson claims that he bought 175
barrels Of potatoes from McKibbon
for February delivery and advanced
McKibbon 800 at one time and SIS
at another time as advance payment
on the crop. That McKibbon gave his
note to cover the advanced payment.
When time for shipment arrived Nc
Ribbon did not have the payment.
McKibbon, It is said, claims that he
simply borrowed the money from
Clawson and gave his note for the
amount, but told Clawson he expected
to have something like It's barrels
Of potatoes and would sell them to
Clawson and pay the note out Of the
proceeds, but that he failed to make
a successful potato crop.
The charge of selling liquor will
be vigorously prosecuted against Nc
Ribbon by the county officers, inde-
pendent of the pending cases from the |
City Court. Witnesses have already !
been summoned to appear before the
Grand Jury on the 25th inst. and give
testimony in the cases in an effort to |
secure indictmnets. The way of the
transgressor, and the especially the
transgressor of the liquor laws, is
very rocky in this county.
