Bootlegger Caught.

One of the most surprising arrests that has occurred here since the sa- looms were voted out over four years ago, was made Saturday by Constable ]. T. Johnson and Deputy Sheritf Charles Walker. who took Jim Franks, former deputy sheriff and keeper of the county's bloodhounds. into custody upon a charge of boot logging whiskey. It is said that the officers had Franks under suspicion and, in order to get the right kind of evidence, Constable Johnson marked one-dollar bill and gave it to ne gro with instructions that he 20 to Franks and offer to buy a pint of whiskey and pay for it with the marked dollar bill The officers shad- owed the negro and watched him as he made the transaction with Franks. Later they saw the negro give Franks the money and receive the whiskey from him. Ks Constable Johnson expressed 1t later, We caught him dead to rights"
 Franks was arrested Saturday, when he was arraigned before Squire E. TurlW. The case was set for hearing Monday, but was again continued OIL account of the fact that the defend ants attorney was out of the city Later Monday afternoon Franks ap peared before Justice Hurley and sub l mitted his case and was mulcted in the usual sum of $50 and the trim | mings.
 Franks was defyiDg the law, and il is rather peculiar coincidence that the whiskey Franks is said to have been peddling was labeled "Old De. tance." Formerly bootlegging and blind-tiger operations in Forrest City have been confined almost exclusively to negroes, but the case of Franks marks the secondiinstance within the past few weeks that white men have been held for violating the liquor laws of the state.
 There is a rumor going the rounds that the officers know of still another white man whom they believe is sell. ing liquor on the sly, and every effort will be made to nab him also within the very near future.
 This is as it should be. St Francis county is dry, and dry it should be kept. Let the officers do their duty
