Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 41, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 January 1907 — THE REMINGTON COURT OF INQUIRY. [ARTICLE]

THE REMINGTON COURT OF INQUIRY.

Regarding the statements made about the court of inquiry held at Remington recently, that no results were obtained, The Democrat has it on very good authority that sortie warrants have been issued as a result of said inquiry, but at this writing the arrestshave not been made because the parties gan not be found. The inquiry,of course, was handicapped by the publicity given it and possibly the report that seems to have been industriously circulated that the special prosecutor’s appointment would expire Jan. 1, may have had some bearing on the parties wanted as witnesses staying hid until after that date, yet it will no doubt have a good effect. We will later have something to say about this matter. But for the present, suffice it to say, that if Prosecutor

Graves had gone to Remington and finished up the work that he had begun when he so suddenly left there, he could have easily squared himself with the people of that place. It has not been denied that be was suddenly “called away,” nor that he set numerous dates for returning and finishing up the work, but failed to do so. In this he may not have been “direlict in his duty,” but some of the good people there seemed to think that he was, or was not treating them just right anyway.
