Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Jan. 20.— The

was spent by County Judge Ash
er in hearing arguments and
testimony for and against the
removal of names from the pe
tition for the granting of saloon
licenses for Argenta. It will be
several days before a decision

fore January 28.
! Up to the present time there
have been only four arrests in

The Stay Wires are attached in such a m»i>nw J
they cannot be slipped on the line wires, ■
