Court in Sioux County
The term of court that was to have
been held by Judge Harrington on the
28th of May , was opened by the sheriff
Alex Lowry , every day for four days ,
there being present only the sheriff and
clerk Wni. J. A. Kaurn. The Judge
tailed to come and also failed to notify
the clerk , that he could not be here , so
to fulfil the law as required by statute
the court had to pe opened each day as
ai ove stated t o s > ioux county has had
district court for four oays without a
ludge. Harrison Press-Journal.
Score Another Point for
Jnclge Westover.
After deliberating six days , six nights
and eight hours , the jury in the Jahnke
case brought m a \ erdict ot murder in
the first degree , assigning August F
Jahuke to a life term m the state Peni-
.eutiary. . Judge Westover has beon
ughly complimented for his action and
ruling in this case. The jury agreed
not to agree , so the judge sent them
back with the understanding that they
must , and the above verdict was the
result of this ruling , We have always
admired the judge for his firmness and
our admiration only increases in this
case. Jurors forget some times that
they owe their country as well as their
fellowman some consideration and this
disagreeing of jurors is an easy way of
getting out of deciding one way or the
other. We only wish we had more
such judges as Judge Westover , then
jurors would lealize they must ace and
not play boy. Oliver Olson the accom
plice in this murder gets 20 years in the
ueuitentiary and Alfred Jahuke the son
of the convicted murderer was turned

dence to make him a party to the
