CASE DISMISSED
Plugging Charge Against Stanley Chief
of Police Dismissed.

VI 1OtNC UlSmlCCc0s
Stanley, N. D.. Feb. 6.-The court
room in the court house was packed
to the limit du&.thg, the trial Of Chief
of Police James Brown who was
charged with violating the prohibition
law. =. -.
The case, which came before JUS
uce Flat, was one Of interest and
much speculation was rife before the
trial as to what would become of
Brown.
1t was alleged that Brown was as
ISOLATED with joe Scribner some time
during October in the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors to which Scribner. ites-
titled. Other witnesses were called
by the state, one of them swearing to
have seen Brown and Scribner de-
viding the proceeds Of the sales.
Attorney P. D. Jones acted In be-
half of Mr.. Brown and also called a
number of witnesses. In lengthy
plea to the court Attorney Jones
critized the integrity of some of the
states witnesses in an unmerciful
manner.
The state evidence was strong, and
Mr.. Jones had to depend almost en-
tirely upon his eloquent plea to the
court.
Justice Flat maintained that the
evidence in the case was not suffi-
Client to bind the defendant over to
the district court and Brown was dis
missed
Scribner was arraigned before JUS
tice Flat on the same charge. He
waived examlSation and was bound
over under bonds Of $500 which he
furnished.

Each one of these books represents
the best that the author has worked
out in his own experience as well as
the best that he could learn from
others that have worked in the same
field. We can then say that each
book contains in its pages the best
that is known on the subject up to
the time that the book was written.
Can any one afford to get along with
out this knowledge? How far would
one get in new country If one did
not look at the guide posts and ask
the way occasionally? These books
will guide you through the different
subjects that they take up, and call
your attention to a thousand and one
things that you would likely never
stumble onto in your own experience,
affording you both pleasure and pro-
fit.
