Red Shield Home
 Service Campaign
Of the Salvation Army Is Meeting With Splendid
 Success

Ensign Carruthers is busily en- gagged in his Red Shield Home Service Campaign at nearby can neries and is getting splendid re- suits.
 The red shield of the Salvation Army means more to the Ameri- can people now than ever before. It means service of the highest character. Army workers have labored long and faithfully for our boys during the war and are still caring for their needs while homeward bound. Funds for the Army's work here at home have been very much depleted during the past year, on account of the ever-increasing fields of labor which have been entrusted to the care of the Army. An appea has been made to the Amerlcal people to come to the Army's as sistance in this, their hour of great need. The call has net been left unanswered as man. states have already gone over the top with the Red Shield Homn Service Campaign During thi month Oregon, Washington ana Alaska will have their drives l the interests of this fund. Tn objective for Southeastern flask is $5000.
 Petersburg has had her drive contributing $360. Ensign Kel is working in Juneau, Skagwa.. and nearby towns and camp. The Wrangell drive will be col ducted the latter part of tn. month.
 It is safe to predict that Wrar gell will respond, with her usu generosity to all worthy cause

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CASE

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CASE To the Editor,
 Wrangell Sentinel.
 Sir:
 In the last issue of the Wrangell Sentinel appeared a criticism of Wrangell jurors who were called to try the case of Mrs. o. R. Stumpf, accused of selling intoX- icating liquors.
 We do not know who furnished you with information relative to this case, but we do know that the article published did not state the facts, or were So handled as to give the impression that there was but one thing to do. and that was to render verdict of guilty" on the first ballot.
 The jurors who voted for ac- quittal did not do so for the pur- pose of aiding or assisting the underworld to violate the law and it appears to us that your article assumes that all of the men on this jury should be classified as favoring illegal acts and that there should have been no diver sity of opinion nor jury disagree ment.
 Had you stated the case as it was. we would be perfectly will ing to let the matter rest, but you did not and we therefore ask that you publish "what did occur at this trial" "
 Let it be understood in the first place, that the evidence given by the principal witness Erickson" was such that the 12 jurors unan- imousy agreed that this mans evidence should be eliminated en- tirely, and this action was taken immediately after the case went to the jury, which probably ac- counts for one of the reasons why some of the jurors voted for ac- quittal.
 A brief summary of the evi- dence submitted at this trial fol. lows:
 CD The complaint charged Mrs. o. R. Stumpf with having sold intoxicating liquors to Erickson" and Anderson" and she was tried on this charge alone.
 t2) Jurors were instructed by the court to render a verdict on evidence submitted in support of the original complaint.
 i3) Evidence submitted was not sufficient to convict the de-

1 fendant, was the opinion of four of the jurors after the first ballot. (4) Neither original complaint nor charge to the jury by the court, could be construed as meaning anything except SELL ING" INTOXICATING LIQ- UOR"
 (5) Witness Anderson swore that he accompanied Erickson to the house of the defendant and that Erickson called for drinks and that they both had a drink in the house. When asked who paid for it, witness said Erickson paid Soc for it. When asked by one of the jurors if what he drank was intoxicating liquor, Ander- son replied, Il don't know,' only took small drink.
 (6) No liquor was submitted at the trial that defendant had been accused of selling. or offer ing for sale. The keg and jug of so-called wine exhibited in court room was not offered in evidence at the trial. The court address. ing the jury stated that the grape juice or wine found in the house of the defendant should not be considered as evidence in the case on trial.
 CD Defendant, in answer to the courts question, Did you sell these men any drinks?' did not answer, "I guess so, but said, This is for you to find out. !" (8) The jury on the first count stood, eight for conviction, and four for acquittal; second ballot, nine for conviction, three for ac. quittal; third ballot, 10 for con. viction and two for acquittal, and this last result was continued with succeeding balloting until it be- came evident that no agreement could be reached in this case.

 E. E. Fowler,
 H. H. Schmolck,
 John Tanning,
 Jess Kincheloe,

Commissioner c. E. Weber to show us the copy of the com- plaint. He produced the instru- ment, and we copied the phrase ology of the charge in which Erickson swore that he became intoxicated on liquors he bought from Mrs. Stumpf at 50 cents a drink. We then requested the commissioner to tell us what took place. He replied that Mrs. Stumpf plead mot guilty" and was then tried by a jury. He said that Erickson and Anderson, the only witnesses, testified to having obtained liquor from Mrs. Stumpf. Erickson also testified that the price paid was 50 cents a drink. The Commissioner told us that after the two witnesses had testified he put the question to the defendant direct: Mrs. Stumpf, did these men have any thing to drink while in your house?' and that in. reply she glanced downward and said: "Yes, guess so." The Commis- sioner further stated that in spite of the evidence of the two wit nesses and the admission of guilt on the part of the defendant the jury failed to agree on verdict. Just then United States Deputy Marshal H. J. Wallace came into the court room, and the Commis- sioner addressed him as follows: Harry, lets dump this booze of Mrs. Stumpf's.' The two off, cers proceeded to empty the 10 gallon keg of booze that had been taken from Mrs. Stumpf's prem ises, and from its odor we judged it to be of sufficient "voltage' to knock out the best of booze fighters.
 We walked away from the court house in company with the U. s. Deputy Marshal, and his conver- sation regarding the case corrobo- rated what the Commissioner had told us, although the Marshal was not present when we talked with the Commissioner.
 Later we listened to Town Mar shal Earl West tell of the affair. MT. West said that when the U. s. Commissioner asked Mrs. Stumpf if she sold the men liquor while in her place she hung her head and said in a low tone, "Yes, guess SO. He said that the Commissioner then asked her if what she sold was intoxicating, and that she challenged the court with the words: That's for you to find out" MT. West further said that when Anderson was on the stand he was asked if what he drank was intoxicating and replied: Il took only a small drink; it was very strong liquor, and not being much of a drinking man, 1 did not want any more of it, West said that the Commits sioner further questioned the wit ness as to the nature of the liquor and that he answered: ''It re- sembled whiskey, and I judge it was homemade" Anderson also testified to seeing Erickson pay for the drinks for the two of them.
 After the article was written and set up in type we talked with Councilman E. A. Lindman, one of the jurors, and he told us Mrs. Stumpf admitted her guilt at the trial.
 We also talked with MT. T. J. Case. another of the jurors, and he told us that Mrs. Stumpf plead "Not guilty" before the U. S. Commissioner, but that when on trial before the jury she did not deny anything. MT. Case also told us that she talked auda ciously saying among other things: YOU KNOW THE BUSINESS I AM IN, AND YOU KNOW THAT
