TEMPE nEPAR7MENT F. ". caAFFEx
 
Read flooders Fined
 In Justice Carr's Court
Four Pleaded Guilty as Charged Yes terday-one May Fight His
 Case

w. A Moeur, at present in charge Of the roads in the Tempe district. has launched an active campaign against the evil practice of flooding the public highways. This campaign was not entered upon by Mr. Moeur without first giving fair warning to the public. He was even more than generous and at the start offered to allow each man the grace of one flooding without arrest. This offer was accepted in a literal sense and it seemed that every one took advan- tage of it at the same time. week or so ago Mir. Moeur was forced to withdraw this offer and he at that time caused to be published further notice to the effect that from then on, all road flooders would pe arrested and would have an opportunity to test the merits of the case in the justice court.
 True to his word. Mir. Moeur got busy and yesterday four ranchers ap- peared in court. pleaded guilty as charged and were fined q nominal sum as starter. These ranchers were Andrace Jepsen. Mahlon Brown. 
 effort will be made here to go into the details of the individual cases. There are no doubt some eXtenuating cir cumstances in one or all of them but nevertheless the roads were flooded and the point is--road flooding must cease. If it can't be prevented one way. another way will be tried. Mir Moeur wants it understood by the farmers of this vicinity that in arrest ing man for flooding the road. he is not doing it on account of any per sonal aniinosity toward that man. but merely in the discharge of his duties and acting under the instruction of the board of supervisors.
 One other farmer. Chris Jacobson. has also been arrested on a similar charge but up to yesterday afternoon had not appeared in court. It is un- derstood that Mir. Jacobson proposes to fight the case.
