Shadford store, which burned

! Editor Courier:
l note by the Courier of Thursday
evening of Jan. Z. that the validity OF
my acts as notary was attacked in the
trial in progress before Police Judge
Kirby, wherein an attempt is made to
determine the sufficiency or insult
ficiency of the petition to close the
saloons. There is about as much
merit in that objection as there is in
hundreds of others made during the
progress Of that exceedingly har-
monious" trial of the Estate of Iowa
vs. Hallgren" in police court, where
there is in evidence neither adefen-
dant nor prosecuting witnesses.
The impression made upon my mind
in reading the objections to the petit
ton is that the attorneys are not
sincere i'll their contentious or they
would have long since, advised their
clients to open the doors of their
saloons for business.
l have been a resident of the United
States twenty-seven years and as a
resident of the state of Iowa am deep
ly interested in all matters of reform
and the proper enforcement of our
laws as every one should be-
l have complied with the provisions
of the statute in obtaining my notarial
commission which was issued and
signed by the governor of the state of
Iowa and secretary of state, have
filed my bond, taken the oath and
my commission is recorded in the
clerks office. Under our law my acts
are valid and binding until my COM
mission expires or is revoked by the
governor or removal from the county.
They cannot be colaterally attacked
and il the brewers and distillers want
to test my authority let them do it in
a direct proceeding and will pay my
own expense and not ask the state to
try dozens OF immaterial issues at the
expense of the tax payers.
| am writing this article not for the
purpose of antagonizing anyone but
simply to let the public know that the
contention of the liqour interests is
absolutely unfounded SO far as nv
acts as notary are concerned.
