STRING TO A RESIGNATION
Washington. Ilobert W. Coflesh's
offer to resign as United States dis
trict attorney for southern Iowa is
under consideration by the justice
department, but Attorney Genera!
Cummings said Colflesh's letter had
been reierrcd to him by President
Roosevelt. "It was not an out and
out resignation," the attorney gen
eral added.
Asked to describe it, lie told news
men "it was ana it wasn't" a resig
nation. "But it was a very nice let
ter," he reflected.
Colfksh sent the letter of quali
fied rerigantion to Mr. Itooevelt
shortly after Lieutenant Governor
K:ascht-I was indicted by a grand
jury fcr alleged public works con
spiracy, and simultaneously with
Colflesli'.- announcement he would be
a republican candidate for governor
of Iowa.
State Supreme Court Says Ee and
Eurleigh Properly Punish
ed for Contempt.
The conviction in Saline county of
Harry M. Lux and D. Ilobert Bur
leigh of Lincoln, on charges of con
tempt of court by aiding others in an
attempt to prevent the sheriff from
holding a mortgage foreclosure sale,
was affirmed by the supreme court
Friday. Chief Justice Goss, in the
opinion, said that under the plan of
government the judicial department
may not lawfully be intimidated by
threats, coerced by force or influenced
by anything outside the facts and
the law. He says it was timely and
fjj fortunate for the cause of law and
oruer that the unlawtul scheme oi
the defendants was promptly frus
trated by a resolute prosecutor and
a courageous judge.
The defendants were charged with
fourteen others with executing a con
certed plan and wilful attempt last
March 14 to impede and obstruct the
administration of justice. The affair
at Wilber was one of a number where
farmers and others sought to prevent
sheriffs from seiling farms. Neither
Lux nor Burleigh is a farmer. The
crowd held the sheriff in his office
lor about an hour, and was finally
dispersed by the use of tear gas
bombs. Lux claimed to be an organ
iz erfor the farm holiday association.
The court says defendants' legal
rights were fully protected by the
lower court and that the fact that a
mortgage moratorium law had been
passed early in March cannot be in
voked by them, since there is noth
ing to suggest their right or power
to do so. They were neither owners
nor liable on th mortgage. All in
ferences from the record indicate
that they were uninvited strangers,
crashing the doors, who now seek to
avoid punishment for their bad legal ;
manners, lne court assumes mat
Lux receded the heavier fine because
he was more of a leader and organ
izer of the raid than Burleigh, that
the court did not abuse its discretion,
and that the defendants were for
tunate they were let off with fines.

games of the independent basketball
touruamcni at Glenwood, were elim
inated last night by the powerful and
aggressive Villisca team, one of the
favorites of the tourney by the score
of 21 to 14.
The locals had injuries to Forbes
in the Thursday night game as well
as Donat with his injured leg to con
tend with as well as the well coached
and efficient Iowa quintet.
The locals were unable to make
their shots good, altho they had many
i opportunities and also suffered from
j the penalties that were called on
jtheni by the referee and umpire,

; much dissatisfaction with the Glen-

first quarter and were never headed
in any part of the game as they drove
on to a victory.
