The trial of Mr. J. W. Ham-
mill, who was charged with al-
owiug persons to enter his saloon
and for selling liquor on Sunday,
was held this morning before May
or Lord. .
Eight or ten witnesses were ex
amined, several of whom testified
hat they had entered the saloon
on Sunday but all of them denied
that they had ever bought any
whiskey on that day. Mr. L. H.
Clement was present as council for
Mr. Hammill. I
After hearing all the evidence
in the case Mayor Lord imposed a
fine of $20 on Mr, Hammill for
permitting persona to enter his sa
loon. On the charge of sellinc on
Sunday the defendant was not
guilty.
The trial grew out of a state
ment made by Rev,. H. L. Atkins
in his pulpit last Sunday that men
had been seen entering bar-rooms
here cn Sunday. . j
In a conversation with Mayor
Lord last niht hei stated to the
Truth-Index representative that
no blame was attached to the po
lice officers for their failure to dis
cover that liquor was sold at this
place on Sunday, owing to the
