tion of turpetnine and yosin this year as

These figures do not include wood turpen-

10 per cent of production. The totals COM
bine the actual statistics of production to

duction for the remainder Of the season.
The producers, the report states, seem to

BALLOTS CAST BY
INDIANS THROWN
OUT BY BOARD

ASHEVILLE, N. c., Nov. 90
Every Indian vote cast in Jackson
county at the general elections No
vember 2 was thrown out by rising
vote Of the Jackson county board of
canvassers here Monday, nine vot-
ing in favor of such action and
two opposed. There are approximate
ly sixty-1ve or seventy Cherokee In
dian votes DISTINGUISHED under the
board ruling.
By this move, all Republican cam
didates, with perhaps the exception
of John B. Ensley, representative
elect, and one commissioner, were
defeated by their Democratic op-
ponents.
| Hardly had the motion been carried
before prompt and energetic protest
| of this action was voiced by H. r.
Queen, representing the Republicans
| of Jackson county. The question will
| be fought out in the courts.
The first sign Of bitterness shown
! openly since the board moved from
| Sylvia to Asheville to complete their
| canvass from Chairman j. J. Mason,
| following the reading of the Repub-
| lican protest.
L .
and your protest shows it here" de-
! clared the chairman; that when you
came in before the board as citizens
| you meant to take the question and
run the board as you saw fit-that's
| the way 1 look at your protest"
The tenseness of the scene in the
| room, crowded to it's capacity by men
Of both factions, with lips tightly
! drawn, eyes holding an unusual
| brightness, was broken by the steady
voice of Mr.. Queen, asserting that
| the action Of Republicans came as
! a purely legal step-the right OF
| citizens to appeal to higher court.
| Our action is not aimed at any
board member as an individual" he
| declared.
By unanimous action the board at
an earlier stage of the meeting voted
to declare the county poll boxes in
| Sylvia and Bankers Creek township
as showing more votes cast than
there were voters at the polls. Brisk
DO you mean to declare them
stuffed?" came the quick interroga-
ton from the Republican faction.
Speaking for the board, Chairman
Mason asserted that this charge
could hardly be made, as the evI-
dence was not, sufficient to justify
any charge of ballot box stufting
and asked that every step be, taken
to determine the vote justly. The
board apparently did not see fit to
dig further into the question.
1--WE can hardly afford to throw
out some 500 legal votes just Sc
cause of a. few, ilie e a. votes votes thai t3
son. "But when a box is stuffed. it
is the usual thing to throw it out"

He is accused of using marked
cards in game of stud poker De-
cember IA, 1919, thereby winning a
pot of $4,000 from Sam Lewis. Mr..
Steuer, who is Krohnenberg's attor-
nev. asserted that it was impossible
to read the cards by their backs, as
his client is alleged to have done.
He dealt a hand, face down on the
counsel table before the jury box
and guessed wrong on every card as
he turned iPover.
On the strength of his statement
that cards could not be read as al
