case Of the state VS.. G.. NJ Roberts
for permitting building owned by
him to be usod for the unlawful stor-
age and barter Of liquor, went to the
jury tonight after a. three days trial.
Because OF the fact that the penalty
law. under which this case was tried,
will he used more extensively IN the
future by county attorneys and state
enforcement attorneys, the state did
complete and when 1t rested II was
admitted by every one who had heard
the evidence that the state had left
nothing undone.
Roberts made no defense except to
attempt to prove that search warrants
had not been issued from the justice
courts here durnlg the time set out
in the suit as was testified to by one
of the law enforcement officers
/ The suit is for s191,000 and was
based on the law which exacts n pen
atty Of from 500 to 81 900 for each
offense. The petition sets forth TINT
Roberts used his building from No
vember /, 1909, to May 10, 1910, for
( the sale of liquors. The maximum
penalty was asked for each of these
: 1871 days during this period.
/ The state subpoenaed j. W. GIL,

weighing 1900 pounds were frequent
as were shipments OF ten cases OF
| whisky weighing 600 pounds. A 10.
cal newspaper figured up the weight
OF the shipments and found that they
: totaled fifty thousand pounds.
A sensation was furnished last
night when o. W. Sawyer was sent
to Jail by Judge Barnum for being
unable to remember q conversation he
had had with the defendant short
time before. He was put on the stand
by the state, but declared he had not
been in the place during the time
/ specified In the petition. When ask
ed If he did not have a talk with th'
defendant, he said that he had talk
ed about five minutes with him, bu
that 1t was not about his testimony
Asked as to what he did talk about
Sawyers DECLARED he could not re-
member. After being warned he wa
sent to Jail. He was put on the stan,
again today but he still said h,

that such an appointment would give
