Distributes Circulars Inviting Voters
to Hear Him Discuss the Ques-
ton Next Saturday.
The probability is that there will
be a clear cut fight with local OPP
ton and statewide prohibition the
issue in the election this summer of
a representative in the legislature
from Terrell county.
Senator John r. Irwin, one of the
announced candidates for the legis-
lature, has come out boldly as a
champion of local option, and has
distributed circulars throughout tue
county inviting the voters to hear
him discuss the question in a speech
to be delivered at the court house
on next Saturday, June 4th.
Mr.. Irwin, it seems, favors the dis
pensary as the best solution of the
liquor problem, as he states in the
circular that he will attack espe-
cially the present blind tiger sys-
tenn of dispensing liquor, and under
take to show that local option and
the dispensary system is the best So
luton of prevailing evils"
Hon. A. w. FIemming, the only
other announced candidate for the
legislature, has made no public
declaration of his position on the pro-
hibition question, but he will prob
ably do so before the campaign pro-
crosses very far.
There are many earnest and mill
tant state prohibitionists in Terrell
county, and now that the gauge of
battle has been thrown down by Sen
ator Irwin there is little reason to
doubt that they will have a candi-
date in the field and back him up
with a solid and determined support
The issue, if it is made, will be
clear cut, and the result decisive OF
the sentiment of Terrell county on
the prohibition question.

the drunk tank and then released from
custody while in an intoxicated condi-
tion.
According to police records, Glenn
,was arrested in Central avenue near
Fourth street. He was suffering from a
three-inch laceration of the scalp and

lice, so it is asserted, to allow him to
be released on $5 bail.

DIVORCED COUPLE TO
BE MARRIED AGAIN
Judge Declines to Set Aside De-
cree but Gives Advice

A difficult problem was presented to
Judge Hutton yesterday when attor-
neys for Minnie Casterline entered a
motion to set aside the interlocutory
decree of divorce granted to her near
ly year ago against her husband, e.
d. Casterline. on the grounds of de-
sertion and failure to provide. Since
the decree was granted he has ap-
peared on the scene again as a pros
porous citizen of oregon and the two
have come to an agreement and wish
to live together again as man and
wife.
Judge Hutton considered that If the
decree had been granted less than six
months ago the motion could have
been satisfied. AS it is, there is a sim
liar decision pending before the su-
preme court and under the circum-
stances he believes it would be best
for them to wait until the year since
the decree was granted is up and then
marry again. Arguments will be heard
on April 25.
