BUTLER COUNTY MAN FREE AFTER TRIAL ON LIQUOR CHARGE EATON. O., April 5. That the trial court was without jurisdiction to hear and determine the case, and that the affidavit in the case was not sufficient, and the arrest was in violation ot constitutional rights, is the opinion of Judge Stanley Struble, of Cincinnati, in ordering the discharge of William Beaver, of Butler county, convicted here some time ago in the court of Justice Li. T. Stephen on a charge of selling, transporting and delivering liquor in violation of the Crabbe act. Beaver took appeal to common pleas court on error and Judge Struble heard arguments on the error here one day last week. Judge Struble's opinion was received here Monday. That the person subscribing to the affidavit "has reason to believe" that the defendant did sell, transport and deliver intoxicating liquors Is cited by the judge as the insufficiency of the affidavit. Beaver was alleged to have sold, transported and delvered to a man In

Camden a case or more of "Nox-A-

Koff," represented to be a medicinal compound, and containing more than 42 per cent of alcohol. He had been under $1,000 bond pending action of common pleas court. The Camden man, William Fairfield, pleaded guilty to selling the alleged

medicinal compound and was fined

$100 and costs. Tractor in Suit. A note for $933 and a farm tractor are involved in a suit brought in common pleas court by H. F. and Jennie

Sohlmgman against M. H. Markey.

note, leaving a balance of $131 in their favor. Tha claim Markey refuses to pay the balance or surrender the note they gave him. In Uae justice's court, Samuel Wolf was awarded judgment for $30 against George Sigler, for 18 loads of manure. Slgler too exceptions to the court's award and appealed, the case to common pleas court, ttie appeal bond being fixed at $100. Red Cross Official Here. Dr. S.

Nicholson Submits Statement on Earlham College Teachings

S. E. Nicholson, chairman of the i committee which recently reported to the Earlham college board of trustees after an investigation to determine whether teachings at Earlham were in conflict with fundamental Friends doctrine. Tuesday submitted the following statement: "The general public should not be too ready to accept statements to the effect that the report of the Earlham college investigating committee will only add to the unrest among Friends. "I note that the complainants, through their sub-committee, promise that there 13 forthcoming 'publicity that will either place the Investigating committee and the college board in the position of having been misled by the cavils and sophistries of designing persons, or, on the other hand, of having purposely suppressed the truth. "Of course, the complainants can take certain portions of the testimony and ignore all else, and thus establish their case. Our investigating

committee considered all testimony and had to weigh all the evidence, with the inevitable result that was "feet forth In the committee report made to the Earlham board on March 26. If now the complainants, who insisted at the last session of Indiana Yearly Meeting upon having an investigating committee, persist in repudiating the careful and thorough analysis of the whole situation as set forth in the committee report and set out upon some sort of propaganda against the college by detailing their own evidence in support of their propaganda, the Yearly Meeting will not be slow to see where the causes of unrest really 3.F6 "I have sent the following letter to Charles T. Moore and S. Adelbert Wood: April 4, 1921, "Charles T. Moore and S. Adelbert Wood. "Dear Friends: I have asked for and read copies of your letters to the Earlham Board of Trustees. Of course it was your right to present a minority report in review of the evidence and embodying your conclusions thereon. These letters however appear to be in the nature of a protest against the committee report and there are some statements which we cannot aliord to let go unchallenged. 1 You object to thi report because it "was prepared and brought before us by the chairman." I have been chairman of too many committees not to know how important it is for somebody to prepare something to serve as a basis of consideration and discussion. Especially is this true where the report calls for an analysis of voluminous testimony, as in this case. If this is mant to be an implication that I forced my own draft of a report through, it is a reflection upon others

of tha f nrr.mil tee that iss rrtainlv not '

justified in the least degree, ff the report did not represent the judgment of the majority they were competent to

telling the truth and were attempting to mislead the committee by giving a false impression, or we had to say, as we did say, that Earlham's position had been misunaerstood, or that the differences between complainants and the college involved technical theological matters which did not endanger vital spiritual doctrine. It is a case, where the majority of the committee is convinced that the Earlham teachers are the more credible witnesses as to what they actually believe and teach, and the weight of the evidence, as we believe, was decidedly with those who have affirmed specifically and in large numbers that the teachings at the college have either incited interest in the Christian

life or strengthened their faith, in

Jesus Christ. It is your right to dissent from our conclusions as to the weight of the evidence, but to charge the committee

with ignoring testimony and being un

just to the complainants is quite an other matter.

3. You state that the chairman was

the only one of the committee present

"who said he favored the Evolutionary and Historical method of interpreting the Scriptures, etc." With the evidence before us, I could not have reached any other conclusion than I did, no matter what might be my personal theological beliefs. If we were to be guided by our own personal beliefs, we made a mistake in receiving any testimony at all, but we should have proceeded to write our report in harmony with our own beliefs. 4. I do not understand at all the reference to the desire that our report was to be sugar-coated, and about which you Quote the scriptural passage about covering sins. I think somebody proposed that what we said in discussion should not be reported as a means of insuring frankness and freedom in expression. As I remember it, there was more than one reference to the prdbable publication of the report by the college board. 5. Adelbert Wood argues that the committee of ten proved their case by the admissions of the college professors. The complainants might have charged many things about Earlham that were perfectly true. Certain alle

gations about the teachings were ad-

against our report, that it does not re-, fleet the opinions of certain croups and certain numbers of people. i 7. Finally S.:Adelbert Wood in fearful that the committee report will only "Intensify the unrest that is in the church." If that statement reflects accurately the situation, it can only mean that the complainants will not accept the conclusions of the committee. But who asked for a committee? As everyone knows it was the complainants. They did not protest the committee or its personnel, when appointed. Do they mean tdvtake the attitude now that the only kind of a report to which they would assent would be a report tbat would sustain their charges? Then what was the purpose in having a committee? Was it merely, as an aid to some sort of propaganda that was being launched against the college? In that case they should have issued their statments about the college direct to the public and not presumed to ask the yearly meeting to become a party to the attack. Upon what other basis will our report intensify unrest, except that any kind of a report will be repudiated that does not reflect a particular policy? Upon the basis of the evidence submitted, I shall not hesitate, now or hereafter to defend our report to the utmost, not in any spirit of acrimony for I am sure I feel none toward any

body, but in the spirit of genuine concern for the welfare of the whole body of Christ. Very cordially yours, S. Edgar Nicholson.

Criminal Case Record Set So Far Daring 1921 Criminal cases in Wayne circuit and city courts set a record during the past three months, according to rec

ords at the court house and city hall. Prosecutor Beckett handled 120 criminal cases in the two courts. In circuit court 46 cases were tried, seven of these were before a jury. One jury case was the shortest in the memory of local officials when a jury was impanelled, the case tried and a verdict rendered in one hour and 30 minutes. Seventy-four cases were tried in city court. Liquor cases led the field when 20 cases were brought before the judges. Convictions in all but two of these were returned. In one case the jury disagreed and the other was dismissed
