DEFENDANTS DISMISSED
Sixteen Charged With Violating Game
Laws Acquitted by Magistrate.

On charge of shooting game out
of season, sixteen defendants faced
Justice Phillips last Saturday and
were all acquitted.
For several days it had been rumor-
ed that number of citizens would
be arrested, on warrants sworn to by
Game Warden Johnston on charge
of shooting doves in July, and on ac-
count of the number and prominence
of the parties involved good deal of
interest had been aroused over the
event. Last week capiases were is
sued for the following citizens: r. M.
Banks, ST.. @. w. Jones, T. F. David
son, Sidney Jones, LaBauve Farley,
Eugene Farley, N. E. Wilroy, r. O.
Clifton, VIII Wheeler, z. w. Wheeler,
j. Harvey Banks, Tom Cooper,
Fletcher Veasey, Clarence Veasey,
the latter three of Coldwater. The
offense was alleged to have been COM
mitted on Maj. Dockery's place near
Love on July "a.
The case was set for hearing last
Saturday and Mr.. Farley appeared
for the defendants. The court an
nounced that the cases against R. G.
Clifton, Harvey Banks, Eugene Far
ley and Sidney Jones were dismissed.
A jury was sworn in and it was at
tempted to be shown by Sidney Jones
that T. F. Davidson had killed doves
during July but no case could be
made out. Harvey Banks was then
pleaced upon the stand but refused to
testify, claiming it would incriminate
him. The court then dismissed the
whole crowd.

CITIZEN RENEws DEMAND
German Baker Again Asks for Auditor
for County Books.

To the Citizens OF Desoto County:
In nay article of few weeks ago !
tried to lay before you the Importance
of thorough going over Of the books
and papers of the county by an audi
tor and as result many of the lead
ing citizens of the county have writ
ten me endorsing the article and
asking me to keep up the demand for
an investigation. AS citizen of this
county am interested in having the
taxes collected from the hardworking
citizen honestly and faithfully admin
istered according to law, and If any
of the revenue of the county has been
misappropriated I want to know it,
and have the wrong doer punished.
was in fernando the day this
matter was up before the supervisors
and heard the objections urged why
the audit should not be ordered. The
objections urged for not doing the
work seemed to me to be the strongest
that could be urged for having it done.
If any one has misused or misappro-
priated the county funds, that party
or his bondsmen should be held by
the county to replace such funds. II
an investigation is ordered, and as a
citizen I demand it, and if is found
that moneys have been squandered
from any particular funds I am in
favor of having the recovered money
placed to the credit of the fund from
which it was taken.
ask every citizen of this county
this question: If there has been no
misappropriation of the county reve-
nue., why was it that an attorney ap-
peared before the supervisors to defeat
the order for an audit? Was it that
it would be an unnecessary cost to the
county? No; that was not it. Was
it urgred that there was no discrep-
.ancies or Interpretations? No.
Well, what was it? 1t was in part
this, If your commissioners order

A New Jag Producer.

The latest drink in Kansas is the
Jackson cocktail. 1t is adrink intend
ed to avoid trouble with the Kansas
prohibitory law and Fred Jackson,
Attorney-G Generally, for whom it Is
named. Itcan be purchased anywhere
in Kansas at any time, and the chap
that sells it is never in danger of pros
ecution, and the fellow that buys it
will never be brought into court as a
witness.
The drink is made of three parts of
ordinary apple cider and one part ia
maica ginger really palatable con-
coction. Cider is always good, and
ginger, being chiefly alcohol, gives
the mixture zest and flavor that old
topers say are about the finest ever.
Besides, the drink gets real action
right away. Two good drinks will
make man real funny and cute.
Three will cause him to rob his own
trunk, and five are calculated to make
him prefer bed of shucks in cor
ner of vacant lot to downy couch
at his home.
The Attorney General and the State
Board of Health are hearing numer-
GUS ports of the Jackson cocktails
effectiveness, both as a substitute for
red liquor and as jag-producer. The
Attorney General and board officials
are anxiously looking for some way
to stop the consumption of the cock
tail, but thus far the use of the drink
cannot be stopped by any law of Kan
