MEN, WOMEN AND GIRLS
WHO LISTEN TO RE-
CITAL.
Ola Overmyer Has Fearful Tale
Against Respectful Farmer of
Green Township Alledging Years
Of Mistreatment.

The Court room has been crowded
Monday and Tuesday, with crowds
OF morbidly curious men, women and
girls, who are listening to the horr-
ible tale of fifteen year old Ola
Overmyer, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
Edward Overmyer of Green town,
ship, who is the prosecuting witness
against Clinton ID. Jones, an aged,
and supposedly respectful farmer,
who is neighbor to the Overmyei
family. The story of the girl was
recited Monday and Tuesday. and
was finally completed at 1 :45 p. m.
Tuesday, when the cross examina-
tion was completed. The girl tells
of abuse by the neighbor whom she
had called grandpa, ever since
she was ten years of age. Her
mother took the stand Tuesday after
neon and narrated incidents. etc. The
curious crowd in the court room,
hangs on every word uttered. Wo-
men are present who seem to be
somewhat sacrificing their respect,
by listening unblanched to the nasty
recital. 1t would seem that these
people could find better employment,
at home.

The bOndsman of a saloonkeeper
that sold liquor to an intoxicated
man who afterward killed a MAJ,
was held responsible by the state ap-
pellate court Tuesday in suit for

MILES WRITES
CONCERNING
HIS POSITION
STATE FISH AND GAME COM
MISSIONER SAYS WRONG
IMPRESSION IN REGARD
TO LICENSE.
Outlines Plan for Establishment Of
Law Requiring License Fee for
Fishermen in the
State.

In the following letter to the Ply
mouth Tribune, George w. Miles,
State Fish and Game Commissioner,
who addressed meeting in this city
a few days ago, explain his plans in
regard to law requiring a license
for fisherman.
Editor Plymouth Tribune:
The wrongful impression that has
gene out, that l favor a law requir-
ing every person who fishes to pay
dollar year license fee, is doing
much HARM Will you help me,
through your journal, to correct itf
There is nothing / desire so much
as the good will Of the farmers and
others who live about our lakes and
streams, without some moral support
from whom 1T is almost impossible
for my department to effectually do
its work, and it is their interests the
proposed new law will be intended to
serve. They are not to be required
to pay license fees. But there are
many who 60 out from the cities to
the lakes and streams every year
and take the fish out Of them without
paying anything into the fund used
to replenish them, and these are the
ones the law will be intended to ap-
ply to.
Nobody will be required to pay
license who does not fish outside the
county In which he lives. Nor will
women nor children-persons under
twenty-one years old-be taxed. And
one who has a hunters license win
not need another to permit him to
fish.
With money paid by the an
naal city visitors we could establish
brooderies and employ sufficient men
to till the lakes and streams with
bass for them, so that their vacations
would be much more enjoyable and
the dollar each one of them would
pay to us would be the best money
spent for his outing. And the farm
ers and country people would have
the benefit all the year of the improv-
ed fishing at no expense to themselv-
es
i have believed that such a law
would meet the approval of the coun-
try people, one of whom / am. If it
will not, however, and will cause
them to antagonize me, / will drop it,
for, as / have said, it is the good
will and assistance of these people
that 1 want. first of everything.
would like to have them write me in
regard to the matter.
Yours very truly,
