Sheriff Chas. Stepp and seven of his faithful deputies went into the regions known as the "bad lands" Thursday evening and re- mained throughout yesterday in quest of number of reported moon- shine stills that have been in operation in those sections during the past several weeks. The locali- ties visited are known as Brush ridge, Vine ridge and Bear island, in the St. Francis river region. Some of the very best citizens of Northeast Arkansas live in those sec tions but, unfortunately, the conduct of some individuals are responsible for an unsavory reputation that has been given the places and it is Sheriff Stepp's intention to bring the communities out of the moon shine kinks that are doing the sections incalculable harm from a law and order point of view. The extended raids resulted in the cap ture of good deal of booze-making equipmen. but only one individual was apprehended.
 R. E Phillips age 25, was ar rested in Blue Cane township on three charges, manufacturing liquor, possessing a still and possessing mash He was arraigned before Esq George Spillman at Bard yeterday and released upon a bond of $2,0OO for his appearance at the next ses- sion of the Greene county grand jury.
