The Washburn leader., 1913-06-20

on the question raised in the
state Of Iowa,i although seve-
raj times the supreme court has
rather squinted in the direction
Of . theory that would, if adopt
ed by that body now, hold the
Webb law to be unconstitu itutional.
A square and flatfooted decision
lis what both sides want, and the
forthcoming suit will be planned
with a view to having such q
decision rendered.
The Webb law provides that the
machinery Of the federal govern
ment is to be used for the enforce
ment Of state prohibition laws,
and it's enactment had been earn
estly demand by the temper
ance people of the country for
twenty years prior to the favor
able action Of the last congress.
The suit will be prepared and
brought under the direction of
Lawrence Maxwell of Cincinnati,
Ohio, one of the counsel for the
National Liquor Dealers associa-
ton, and an attorney of wide
reputation. 1t was he who fur
nished the legal arguments on
which President Taft relied for
his veto of the Webb bill.
IF the case should be decided
by the supreme court on its tech
nical merits, it is believed by
good lawyers in congress that
the liquor dealers may win, ,.but.if,
as seems the more likely, it is de-
cided on other and broader mer-
its, it is believed that the tenn
perance people will win.

! Ole Stefferud, who said he had
been q buttermaker for the three
years he had lived in Washburn,
testified that he knew both Funk
and Ande rson, and that he had
done business with them almost

!! Attorney Bangs objected to
questions seeming to bring out
the witness impression of Ander-
sons appearance and action, he
said Anderson s face was flushed,
that he had a staring look in his
eyes, and that his manner was
very nervous. The witness was
very emphatic in his declarations
as to Anderson's unusual appear
ance.

81 never did," responded the
witness before Attorney Bangs
could spring to his feet with an
objection which he made viger-
ous,y, but which was overrruled
by Judge Crawford.
Mr.. Bangs cross examination
Of the witness brought the fact
that Anderson was naturally nerv
GUS in his actions and speech, and
that he had naturally full and
rather staring eyes. He quest
ioned the witness particularly as
to the manner in which Ander-
son was dressed, seeking evident
ly to test his recollection. During
this testimony Annderson's s atten-
ton was closely riveted upon the
witness and he followed every
statement made by Stefferud with
intense interest, frequently whisp.
ering suggestions in the ear of
his counsel.
j. A. Hyland, for eleven years
an attorney in Washburn, gave
testimony similar to that Of Mr..
Stefferud. He knew both Funk
and Anderson and had seen.And-
erson at the back OF his residence
on the night Of the murder. He
said Anderson was walking rath-
er aimlessly about in the back
yard when he Saw him, and that
he appeared vely nervous, that
Anderson's s features seemed to be
drawn, his appearance unnatural,
and his color he described as an

put the same question to him as
to whether Or not he had ever

FOX BREEDING TO Be

TITLED SOCIETY PEOPLE ARE

EDMONTON( Alta, April 12.-
(SpeciaD Several titled society wo-
men of London and other parts Of
England, attracted by the high prices
paid for black fox pelts, are coming
to Edmonton this spring to engage in
fox breeding In central and northern
Alberta They are prepared To make
large investments. If the venture is
successful, it is likely that women, who
have hitherto devoted their attention
to prize dogs and horses, will engage
in the new industry.
Eight black fox skins, each valued
at 81, 800, were sold In Edmonton last
week by trappers from the north
country. F'ifty-four thousand dollars
worth of silver fox pelts were sold
last season. J. l.. Cote. representing

The entry of Tulsa into the okla
homa state capital fight is interest
ing as showing the waning prowess
of Oklahoma city Time was when
Oklahoma city was far beyond COM
parison with any other new state
town. She wrested the capital from
Guthrie easily but in doing so almost
wrought her own destruction From
the very day that the capital was
voted to her oklahoma City began
to decline and apparently the bot
tom has not yet been reached. She
could not begin to make good her
capital pledges and the state could
not collect even the forfeit. If Tulsa
wins the fight-and we sincerely
hope She may-it is not at all pro-
bable that any such decline will fol-
low. Tulsa is too good town al
