SHERIFF WORRIED IVER RULING ON JOHN DOE WRITS .No Enforcement if They Are Illegal, Snider's Comment. Booze squads at the pqtice station may well be discharged and the sheriff sit in the jail with folded hands if a ruling by Criminal Judge James A.

"Our hands would be tied,” Snider said. “Bootleggers and liquor law violators could run wild, and we would be powerless."

Six parties have petitioned for places on the State ballots. The Re publican and Democratic parties have yet to certify their tickets to Governor Emmet! F. Branch. There are places for only seven tickets on the machines. The board of election commissioners is considering grouping the sis ; teen presidential electors of each ■ party on one card Instead of giving j each a space on the machine, thus I

Meeting Is Told, Increasing problems as civilization ; becomes more complex makes more laws m i essary. Prosecutor William ti. Rerny told the Marion County W. C. T. C. Thursday in the closing ' -•■vslon of a two days convention. “The man who drove an ox team fill not endanger life when he he- ■ ime drunk,” Remy said. There was no need of a law to punish him. j The drunken auto driver not only j endangers his own life, hut lives and [ property of others, i “The trouble is not too many laws. | hut too little observance. It is fool- | ish to say there must be no more ; j laws. If we could turn the wheels I of progress backward then we would | be able to erase some of the laws. "If young people leave the home, jto find amusement elsewhere, so- 1 ; eietv must regulate them. The same hold true of liquor laws. A j prominent citizen may violate them, ] hut ho then becomes merely a resiI dent.”
