FOR MAKING HER FAT.

Kansas City, Dec. .. - A Federal
court jury will be asked to determine

ALIENATION SUIT
ENDS IN SMALL DAM
age And INJUNCTION
Sensational Alienation Suit for $4,000
Ends In $500 Damages and
Tight Restraining
Order.

West Union, Ohio. - Government by
Injunction, which heretofore has been
applied principally to labor disputes
in large industrial centers of the coun-
try, suddenly deviated from its regular
pathway and laid the strong, restrain
ing arm of the law upon the social
activities of the village of Seamon last
Friday, when Judge Will P. Stephen
son, in the common pleas court, and
acting upon an agreed to entry by the
opposing attorneys in the King-Sned-
aker alienation and damage suit, is
sued a permanent injunction that is
the most sweeping in it's scope and the
most drastic in its terms and provi-
sions of any previous court order In
the history of Adams county, or of the
state Of Ohio, for that matter.
The injunction part of the court
journal entry, drawn by Judge A. 2.
Blair, of Portsmouth, attorney for Mrs.
King, the plaintiff, is a veritable gem
in the restraining line. In the closely
woven meshes of its labyrinth of pro-
hibitions, Jessie L. Snedaker, the de-
fendant, is almost denied the privilege
of drawing in a breath of the same viii
lage air as that inhaled by the plain
tiff's husband, Homer King
Many witnesses and spectators were
on hand Friday morning when the SEN
sational case, which has been shaking
the social foundations of Seaman for
many months, was called for trial, and
the action came to sudden end in the
common pleas court when the attor-
neys informed Judge Stephenson that
they had agreed upon an entry, the
terms of which rendered the $4,000
damage claim to the sum Of IS, but
sustained the charges made by Mrs
King in her petition and allowed her
the permanent injunction as prayer
for by her.
The attorneys for the defendant
while agreeing to the entry, had their
exceptions noted to the right of the
court to grant any kind of an order of
injunction in a case of this character
and gave notice of appeal
A motion by the defendant for a new
trial was heard and overruled by
Judge Stephenson, and the case, as to
the injunction order, will now go to
: the district court of appeals.

of Register of Deeds at the primary
election, am again before you as a

elected as Register of Deeds, one 2

ing the whole of that period the pub
lie has had access to the records Of
the office at any and all reasonable
times. l have heard no complaint.
On the contrary, I have been inform

with the subject that, for the first
time in the history of the country,
the land indexes may now be relied
upon. If accuracy and attention to
business are factors to be considered
in the choosing of county officers,
