The SUPERIOR COURT.
September Term Likely To Be Long
and Important Session.

The September term of the Kenne-
bee county superior court convenes To-
day and is likely to be a long and mn
portant session. The grand jury VIII
go in session this morning and Is likely
to be occupied several days with the
consideration of criminal matters. The
number of bound-over prisoners is the
largest for years Their offences in
cude horse stealing, assault with in
tent to kill, larceny, highway robbery
forgery and liquor selling. There are
no manslaghter cases. The civil docket
is also long one and includes many
important cases.
The case of State VS.. Rev. Henry n.
Pringle of Watervilfe. field secretary OF
the Christian Civic League of Maine
who was indicted at the April term OF
court for criminal libel, is on the dock
ct for this term. 1t was alleged in the
indictment that Mr.. Pringle printed ia
article in the Christian Civic League
Record, accusing Hon. George w. Hes
elton of Gardiner, a former state SEN
ator and a former county attorney. and
Hon. Fred Emery Beane of Halloween
chairman of the Democratic State
committee and also former county
attorney, of spiriting away two spot
ters," who were employed by the CIVIC
League to get evidence'against alleged
liquor dealers in Gardiner and Hal
lowell.
Among the bound over cases are the
following: George Lashus of Water
vile, assault with intent to kill; George
st. Peter of Benton, highway robbery;
Frank Howard of Waterville, highway
robbery; George Snow of Vassaiboro
forgery James e. Hallett of Winthrop
horse stealing.
1t is still a matter of speculation
whether or not the two detectives, or
spoilers" from Oakland, who were
employed by the Civic League year
ago to get evidence against alleged
liquor dealers in Gardiner and Hal
lowell, will testify at the coming ses-
sion of the grand jury. They were alb
sent from the State when the grand
jury met at the January and April
sessions and returned shortly after the
April term of court was over. Deputy
:Sheriffs Frank J. Ham of Augusta,
Wesley d. Damren of Rome and
George r. Vickery of Hallowell have
been detailed to assist Sheriff Getchell
as court officers during the term.
