WHISKY DRUMMER IN A DRY TOWN
Runs Amuck At Brinkley and Goes to
jail In Default of Bail.
. Y
Brinkley, Ark., Jan. 18-Be
fore Mayor Strong this evening
J. B. Colbert, representing Kel
lerstrauss Distilling Company of
St. Louis, was fined $200 and
costs for violating the prohibi
tion laws by unlawfully selling
whisky. Immediately after his
conviction he was ordered under
arrest by Prosecuting Attorney
Greenlee, charging guilt in five
other cases of a similar charac
ter. In default of bail Colbert
was put in jail.
The case was one of unusual
: interest. One year ago Brinkley
: went dry and a great number of
the leading business men of the
1 city united and employed counsel
: to keep the town clear of blind
tigers. While there have been
some few violations, this united
effort of the good citizens has
i made Brinkley one of the most
law-abiding and cleanest towns
i in Arkansas.
