DENIES BEING TAX DODGER
Mr. Editor.—I notice in The
Journal last week that Judge
Craig has published quite a list of
names of persons that he claims
are illegal voters, some as Repub
licans, some as minors and some
who did not pay their poll tax. I
see my name on the list of the
“Tax Dodgers.” Now, I am no
politician, but if I were to make a
race for office and was defeated, I
think I would go to some dipping
yat and take a plunge for the
eradication of politics, rather than
publish a list of names of illegal
voters unless I was quite sure
their votes were illegal.
1 say my vote is legal, as I have
always voted the Democratic tick
et and have lived in the precinct
the required time and have a poll
| tax receipt to show that all the
; votes I have cast are legal.

PECULIAR CASE PASSED
ON BY SUPREME COURT
The case of L. H. Walker who
was fined $20 and cost, aggregating
$50, at the last session of the Law
j rence circuit court, on an indict
ment for disturbing public wor
ship and who appealed the case
to the Supreme Court, was this
week affirmed by a decision of the
supreme court. Mr. Walker was
not in favor of his daughter being
| baptized last August, when she
expressed her wish to be baptized
according to the rites of the Christ
ian Church, which church she
wished to join after having attend
ed a protracted meeting held near
her home by that denomination.
When the minister proceeded to
administer the baptismal rites, Mr.
Walker raised a disturbance,
which very nearly resulted in
serious trouble. He was indicted
before the grand jury last Jan
uary on a charge of disturbing
religious worship and fined, but
appealed the case, with the above
result. Last fall Mr. Walker was
refused a sitting on the grand
jury on account of his belief in
: agnosticism. Imboden Gazette.
