Anderson, Ind, Sept. 2S.-Anothel
rap at the Indiana local option Law
was taken in the circuit court. when
Attorney Phil O'Neil filed a motion tc
quash the affidavit charging Fred ]
Wischmeyer with illegal voting.
Mr.. Wischmeyer lives at Pendleton
and was arrested on complaint OF the
'drys on election day charged with
casting an illegal vote. The claim was
made he had not lived long enough in
Pendleton to gain a legal residence.
The case is set for trial October "a
and will be heard at that time unless
the court sustains the motion to quash
the affidavit.
The Question Raised.
Interesting questions are raised in
the motion to quash the affidavit. the
most interesting OF which is probably
the one which sets up the claim that
the whole option election was an lille
gal affair. 1t is alleged that If the
charges made against Wischmeyer in
the affidavit are true. they do not con-
stitute public offense In the sight Of
the law. Accepting the theory that
Wischmeyer did vote or attempted to
vote at the option election in Pendle-
ton. the defense asserts he did not in
any way transgres5 the Indiana cleo
ton Law. The law prescribes that who

tions of 4 voter at any election auth
