ACQU|TTAL IN THE
FENCE CUTTING CASE
FOUR MEN FROM PoolEvlLlG,
WHO WE'RE CHARGED WITH
CUTTING FENCES, ACQUITTED.

The case against John Pierce, Jack
Blevins, Mike Darr and VIII Henry OF
Poolcviile who were charged with ma
liciOus mischief was tried in the coun-
ty court yesterday and resulted in an
acquittal
They were charged with cutting
fences on the property of Mr.. Poole
and Mr.. Eaves. who are large land
owners in that section.
The work Is said to have been car
ried on In a manner similar To night
riders work back in the eastern states.
The case has been in court for some
time and has attracted considerable at.
tention.
This practice of destroying the fenc-
ing OF large land owners has been car.
ried on since the country was first set
tied. and it has always been a very
hard matter to secure a conviction,
due probably to the fact that many of
the small land holders and tenants
were in sympathy with the parties who
are actually engaged in the work Of
cutting the fences.
This has been a hard fought case :
every inch of the ground on each side
has been contested by the attorneys
The defendants were represented by
Attorneys Champion and Champion of
this city and Gilbert and Bond OF Okla
homa City. The prosecution was con
Quoted by County Attorney Mathers
and Hon. w. Is. Johnson.
The other cases against the defen-
dants on the same charge were dis
missed
