Last Wednesday the Farmers Equi-
ty association began two days picnic
at Big Bend in this county. Sheriff
Simon and States Attorney J. E. Mel
son got tip that some bootleggers
were going to bring three loads OF
booze across the river on the ferry
and attempt to sell it at the picnic.
They drove up to the picnic grounds
in an auto through the rain. but the
booze vendors very likely concluded
that the rain would spoil the market
for they did not attempt to cross the
river with their cargo. The next
day, however, one of the officials of
the association found a man on the
ferry with six quarts of beer stuffed
into his pockets and made him throw
them into the river.
