by Associated Press "A movement
looking to the removal of statue
erected at Troy, Ala, just after the
Civil Var TO John Wilkes Booth,
slayer of Abraham Lincoln, has been
launched by Mrs. Cal D. Brooks, pres
ident of the Woman's League of Re-
publican Voters of Alabama.
Mrs. Brooks declares that protests
against the statue have come to the
league from many sections of the
country and she believes the time
has come when such acts as placing
the shaft will be frowned upon by
all good citizens of the South regard
less of party affiliations"
An injury has been done the South
as whole, she says, and a wrong
impression created, North, East and
West. In order that there may be
harmonious union of interest, North,
East, West and South" Mrs. Brooks
has called upon all political faiths
of the South to join the league in
plans to remove the Booth shaft.
The statue was erected by funds
gathered by semi-public subscription

county, appearing before the judge
in the case, made the point that the
law is unconstitutional in that it VIC
iates the due process clause OF the
constitution.
The case was brought before Judge
Munro yesterday by County Agent
Holder and Sheriff Beeland of Tay-
Tor county against Mr.. Sessions of
Taylor county. The point was made
in the case that the sheriff upon or
der of the agent seized seven oxen
from the defendant for the purpose
Of dipping them, because Sessions
had not dipped them himself. The
plaintiffs, through their attorneys
Homer Beeland and Gilbert Robinson,
stated that a possessory warrant had
had secured the oxen from the prem
Uses of the sheriff while he was away.
The law provides, it is stated that
if the owner does not dip his cattle,
the officers are allowed to seize them
dip the cattle and sell them for the
expense incurred.
Mr.. Foy, representing the defend
ant, made the point Of unconstitu-
tionality. Peter F. Bahnsen, state
veterinarian, was an interested spec
tator, stating to Judge Munro that
it was the desire of the department
of agriculture of the state to have a
test case made in the matter of cat
tie dipping.
The case was postponed by Judge
Munro until September when he will
go to Butler to hear it.
The case is of particular interest
because of the wide discussion re-
garding the state dipping law.

Everyone is now familiar with the splendid results brought about by yeast in treating such skin troubles as pimples, boils, black k-heads. etc.
 But there were thousands of peo- pie who couldn't eat common baking yeast, due to it's disagreeable taste.
