•‘HOOTCH” HAKKB CAUGHT
i
I
It has long been suspected that
“hootch” was being manufactured
some where in the vicinity of Ram
part. Marshal Dribelbis felt posi
tive of the fact for some time. He
fiinally captured Hezekiah Kenser
last Monday with all the imple
ments of his craft and a keg of mash
•
ready for the still. Kenser’s cabin
is back of the town almost at the
foothills and an ideal spot for such
illicit work. Marshal Dribelbis has
made the most creditable catch of
his local career and the faet of Ken
ser’s arrest will deter any others
from succeeding him in the”hootch’ ’
traffic. Kenser was brought be
fore Judge Green last Tuesday
evening and was held to await the
action of the Grand Jury under
$ioco bonds. Not being able to
furnish the required bond Hezekiah
went to jail.

E- R. Brady writes from Chenoa,
that he would go on to Eagle. As
it has been reported that he was a
candidate for the appointmen of as
sistant district attorney at Rampart, j
it is probable that he wants to get j
an early cnt at the pie counter.
