SALOON men ALI.
PLEAD NOT Gull Ty
OSkALOOsANS SAY THEY ARE IN.
NocENT OF SELLING LIQUORS
TO INDIANS.

In pursuance to indictments return
ed against them yesterday by the fed
eral grand jury, thirteen Oskaloosa sa-
loonkeepers appeared before Judge
Smith Mcpherson this morning and
each of them pleaded not guilty to the
crime of selling liquors to Indians.
Bonds in the sum Of $500 were impos-
ed upon each by the court and the
thirteen dispensers were admonished
by the court to appear upon the first
day of the next term of court for trial.
The men against whom indictments
were returned are James Deboard, Da-
vid Blackburn, Edward D. Nugent,
James K. Black, Homer McMains, W.
j. Doyle, Robert Miner, H. D. MI
gent, A. E. Greenway, J. d. Dow, A.
L. Stolar, A. Roesch and A. Menden-
hall.
According to the evidence presented
to the grand jury, the Indians who
purchased the liquors We're from the
Tama reservation and it was through
the cleverness Of E. e. Van Vert, a
special agent from the department of
the interior, who was called to the
state by o. L. Green, the Indian agent
at Tama, that the Oskaloosa saloon
men were suspected The red men had
been giving the Tama agent consider
able trouble, great many of them be-
ing under the influence of fire water
all the time, and therefore very abus-
i've Van Vert took several of the In
dians to Oskaloosa clothed in blan-
kets and in every way decked out SO
that the men who sold them liquors
could have no excuse for not recogniz-
ing them as real Indians. They had
no trouble in getting the liquors; in
many Of the cases the sales being
made in full view of Agent Van Vert.
The revised statutes show the sale of
Intoxicating liquors to Indians to be a
criminal offense, for which the maxi
lmum penalty is three years in jail.

City Uses Printers Ink

st. Louis is the latest city to dis
cover the value of advertising and to
show her faith by spending money
literally on printers ink.
1t is intended to have a million popu-
lation for the chief city of Missouri. To
get it, st Louis believes all that is neces-
sary is to call attentian to her surpas-
sing advantages as residence place
and a center for manufactures and
business in general. Her merchants
have had a steady course of education
in reaching out for trade since j. B.
Leeds, when freight traffic manager of
the Missouri Pacific, discovered Texas
for them, and they have learned that
advertising pays. What will profit
their own business, they naturally ar
que will be of equal profit on larger
scale for their city.
st. Louis has appropriated $1OO.O to
bring her merits before the American
public half of which is to be used to
print pages Of matter every week in
the local papers and the other half to
publishing whole pages of facts about
st. Louis in the principal magazines of
this country.

Ne One WIN be Wropuea

The charge that the commissioners of
Elko county are trying to take Mrs
Sproules and Mrs. Anderson's property
for courthouse purposes without giving
them full value, is as shameless as it is
baseless. The commissioners are not
now and never have been actuated by
any such purpose. They are honorable
men and the thought of wronging these
ladies in any way has never entered
their brains. The law protects them
and everybody else in the peaceable
possession of their property and will not
permit it to be taken from them with
out just compensation. The same law
also marks out a course for the commits
sioners to follow in the courthouse
matter and they are following that
course. =
We do not believe there is citizen of
Elko county who wants Mrs. Sproule
and Mrs Anderson to lose single cent
by reason of their property being taken
for the new courthouse. So far as we
have heard any expression on the
subject, it is that they should be paid
all their property is worth. :
That is the sentiment of the commits
sioners now and has been all the time.

Graft as Defined

|. Graft and "gross misdemeanor'
are two words that have crept into the
legal language of the State of Washing
ton, both being incorporated in a sec
ton of the new criminal CODE which
will become effective ON June 10. The
section defines what constitutes graft.
1t applies to all administrative, execu-
tive, judicial or legislative officers, as
well as to any person giving or pro-
missing any compensation, reward or
gratutity to influence any public official
directly or indirectly to refuse, neglect
or defer the performance of any public
duty. ..
"Gross misdemeanor" is q new clas-
sification of crime in the State of Wash
ington 1t is defined as every crime not
covered in the definition of felony or
a misdemeanor, and the penalty is a
fine of not more than 81 900 or imprison-
ment in the county jail for not more
than year, or both.

Crooked Attorney Arrested

w. F. Ford, the proprietor of a
monthly magazine at Berkeley, Cal,
was arrested at the request of the
sheriff of Nye county, Nevada, Monday.
Ford. was arrested as result of the
secret Indictment returned last Friday
by the Nye county grand jury. He
represented an Indian known as Peavine
Johnny and another person who were
co partners in the Clifford property,
which was recently sold to J. G. Nc
Cormack. Peavine Johnny was the
original discoverer of the mine and
when his associate owners sold the
mine, three years ago, they failed to
count them in. A suit was brought
which was compromised and Johnny
and his partner were given two notes.
These they placed in the hands of Ford
their attorney, who after making the
collection, failed to turn the proceeds
over to his clients. He is brother of
TREY L. Ford, the prominent San
Francisco attorney.
