his representing that organization af.
ter he leaves the Governors office

tent the ability of the Governor in
advancing the interest of the state.

Of THE
BOONE CIRCUIT COURT

Judge ]. NJ. Shinn in his instructions
to the jury at the opening of Circuit
Court Monday delivered a particularly
stirring and eloquent appeal to the
jurors on law enforcement and their
duties. He reminded them of the
solmnity of the oath juror takes
on entering on his duties and gave
special instructions regarding the yiO-
lation of road laws and the illegal
sale of liquor and gaming, and es-
pecially impressed on the jury the
importance of enforcing compulsory
educational laws, explaining to them
that the law requires all parents and
guardians to put children in school
within two weeks after the term be-
gins and to send them at least two
thirds of the term. This law applies
to children between the ages of 7
and Is.
Special stress was given to the
transportation of liquors, the court
holding that the distance transported
was of no importance, that if it was
carried from one state to another,
or from one part of the state to anoth-
er, the crime was complete regardless
of the distance carried or transported.
Special importance was given to
laws protecting minors, it being a yiO-
lation of the law to play any game Of
chance or hazard with a minor and
parties doing so violate two laws
Instructions were given on carrying
weapons and the sale of cartridges
to be used in pistols. The court EN-
phasized the fact that merchants car
rying in stock pistol cartridges, and
who kept them on exhibition in show
cases where they would attract at
tention, and be attractive to boys, thus
encouraging them to carry pistols in
open violation of the law, not for de
fensive purposes but for offensive, as
boys who had pistols usually ordered
them from mail order houses but that
cartridges being barred from the mails
the ammunition had to be bought at
local stores, of retail merchants, and
that if the law was strictly en-
forced and merchants prevented from
selling these cartridges, there would
be fewer violations of the law by
wearing concealed weapons and fewer
murders committed.
The Judge referred to the fact that
Boone county had a number of killings
during the last twelve months and
said the only way to prevent such
would be the strict enforcement Of
the law.
The following cases were disposed
of Wednesday:
p. C. Maggard and w. L. Snapp,
embezzlement, acquitted.
Alva Jones, forgery, dismissed on
payment of costs
Raymond Sands, forgery. dismissed
