pleading his own case He based his
defense on the fact that he did not
receive the proceeds of his illegality.
and that he was used merely as tool
for the real bootleggersl
The Judge. in sentencing the man,
stated that he was convinced that the
man was guilty, in as much as he
acted as an agent or steerer, and that
he was not entirely convinced that
he did not receive monetary compen-
sation. and that 1t was very clear
that he received from time to time
different quantities of whisky for his
interest in directing men where they
could go to buy drinks.
His own testimony was to the ef-
feet that he sent men who were dry
around to his friend, who sold them
the booze.
The city officials are now up
against the hardest phase of the boot
Logging question. as the work Is all
underhanded and slyly done; in other
words, they are more accurately de-
scribed as bootleggers than were the
men arrested for selling whisky
short time after the town went dry.
The arrest today in all probability
precedes other and more sweeping
