DRYS ARE AFTER
BRISTOL VETS
TURN TABLES BY THREATENING
TO HAVE POLL TAX PAYERS
INDICTED.

BRISTOL, Tenn, July 2S.-The tenn
perance people here have turned the
tables on the vets, who after the filing
of the contest by the drys, threatened
to have certain prominent prohibition
leaders arrested for illegal voting.
While there was nothing in the claim,
it being charged by the drys that 1t
was made to intimidate the petition
ers, it is just learned that dozen
wet leaders may be indicted before
the next court by the grand jury for
paying the poll taxes of voters.
The vets also attempted to intim-
idate the petitioners, according to the
drys, by having many of those men
toned in the petition as having mad
their poll taxes paid by others, threat
en- suit for damage, for libel, against
the petitioners. However, this has
been exploded and the persons VINO
claim to have been libeled find they
have no recourse. A pleading IN
court never furnishes grounds for a
suit for libel.

MILLS BROTHERS
NOT CONVICTED
WERE CHARGED WITH THE MUIR
DER OF THEIR STEP MOTHER
AT BRISTOL.

BRISTOL. Tenn, July 2S.-A sensa-
tional murder case, the trial OF Whlch
was begun over week ago, has just
ended in Hancock county, Tennessee,
Inv the Jury failing TO agree. 1t was
the case of Riley and Aaron Mills,
sons of a prominent citizen OF Han
cock county, who are being prose-
cuted for the murder of their step
mother, who was brutally slain a year
and a half ago.
The circumstances are that the aged
woman was preparing to retire when
someone emptied the contents of a
donble-barrel shotgun into her breast
from the window She was killed in
stantly. The boys lived about a half
mile away on the same plantation,
They were suspected and in the midst
of the excitement attending the re-
voting tragedy, they were arrested.
Their father believed them guilty and
declared that he wished to see them
prosecuted.
Feeling ran high, and when they
were brought TO trial it was shown
that they had threatened to take the
life of the old woman if she ever
again rode their dead mothers tav-
orite riding horse. Other such threats
were proven, but there was no direct
evidence. The jury failed to agree al
the first trial eleven of them, how
ever, holding out for conviction OF
murder in the first degree. Inc
twelfth held out for a verdict OF &C
ouittal. At the next trial, which oc'
curred last week, there was such
complete reversal of sentiment that
eleven of the jurors held out for ac'
ouittal and one for conviction. Inc
father at this trial took leading part
in the defense of his sons.
Judge H. T. Campbell OF BRISTOL
was counsel for the prisoners. Ihey
were admitted to bail in the sum Oh
$40 600 each, which they promptly
gave.
