HAD JURY TRIAL
Two Days Session Of Justice Court At the
Court House On Prohlbilory Law Viola
tion

A whisky case tried before a jury
OF twelve men, lasted through yester-
day and the day before at the court
house. The case was the one against
B. F. Williams, and was brought be
fore Justice Trebilcock. In order to
secure larger room for the trial ii
was taken to the district court room.
This is one of the cases brought
about by the inquisition which was
held by County Attorney Van Riper
few weeks ago. Practically all Of
the seating capacity Of the court room
was occupied, by spectators, persons
interested in the enforcement of the
prohibitory law, and others who find
entertainment in this kind OF a tri l..
Four witnesses were introduced by
the state to prove that Williams had
sold beer or whisky. The state was
represented. by County Attorney Van
Riper and the defendant by L. A.
Madison and the contest was quite a
spirited one.
The jury found Williams guilty on
three Of the four counts, and the
minimum sentence under the verdict
will be fine Of $500 and ninety days
in Jail. 1t is Understood that the
case will be appealed to the district
court.

urer Of Fairview township, R. E.
Riney, treasurer Of Dodge township
and Mr.. Benbow one OF our loc al
lumberman made a trip to Inga lis
Tuesday to inspect the work of the
Eureka canal. The purpose Of the
trip was to gain information as to
the amount Of work already done on
the ditch and to inspect the present
test that is being demonstrated.
The entire crowd seems to be very
favorably impressed with the ditch.
The visitors found about three and q
half feet Of water running in the
ditch from the sump to the spillway,
a demonstration which is convincing
evidence that the plan employed Of
tapping the underAow will work, is
working, and has been working for
sometime. The work on the sump is
being pushed and it is gaining in
proportions every day now. As the
sump is continued westward the
volume Of water will be increased
more and more.
The commissioners and the town
ship officers along the route Of the
canal wish to keepposted on the oper-
ations Of the ditch company, as the
completion and use OF the canal will
mean great deal to the land through
which the ditch flows.
Those of the party the writer has
talked with express great deal Of
confidence in the success of the ditch.
