Doozc Cases Appealed
to the District Coir I
Members of the "I Don't Knu,.
club and Frank Wagner, a Sioux C
ty commission man, convicted on
charges of violating the Nebraska
liquor law by juries in Judge S. W.
McKinley's court, are not satisfied
with the findings of said court and
have appealed to a higher court.
Members of the "I Don't Know"
club were tried Monday, before a
jury composed of the following men:
Wm. H. Clapp, Prof. J. F. Demel,
Prof. A. O. ' Eggenberger and L.
II. Armbright. Judge R. E. Evans,
special prosecutor, appointed by
Hov. Keith Neville, prosecuted the
case, and the jury returned a ver
dict of guilty after being out just
long enough to take a vote.
Frank Wagner was found guilty
Tuesday by a jury consisting of Jo
seph Hughes, H. D. Wood, Frank
Church. Robert Smith, and L. Val-
'entine. He had a barrel of whisky
in his possession when the sheriff
raided his place, which was held as
evidence. Judge Evans prosecuted
this case also. The decisions in both
cases meet the approval of every
law abiding citizen of the county.
The announcement of County At
torney George Learner that Sheriff
Cain, Chief of Police A. L. Mathwig,
of South Sioux City, and. R. E. Ev
ans, special prosecutor, would be re
quired to prosecute Charles Young
and Lucile Myers on charges of ille
gal keeping of liquor was a cause
for laughter on the part of Sheriff
Cain and other county officials.
Young has been dead for several
months and the Myers woman has
not been in Dakota county for sev
eral years. Sheriff Cain said they
were included in warrants issued on
property in order to make the docu
ments complete and descriptive be
yond legal questioning and' that
neither person was intended to be
subjected to arrest.
Mrs. Young, widow of Charles
Young, yesterday stated that her
cottage at Crystal lake had never
been searched by Dakota county
officers and that she does not live in
the cottage mentioned, as it has been
rented for the season. She stated
that Sheriff Cain held a warrant for
tljc arrest of her husband.
QjIy. Learner filed objections in
each case with the county judge to
Mr. Evans taking any part in the
prosecution of liquor violators.
