The case was brought before Judge Munro yesterday by County Agent Holder and Sheriff Beeland of Tay lor county against a Mr. Sessions of Taylor county. The point was made in the case that the sheriff upon or der of the agent seized seven oxen from the defendant for the purpose of dipping them, because Sessions had not dipped them himself. The plaintiffs, through their attorneys Homer Beeland and Gilbert Robinson, stated that a possessory warrant had been secured by Sessions and a bailiff had secured the oxen from the prem ises of the sheriff while he was away.! The law provides, it is stated, that i if the owner does not dip his cattle, the officers are allowed to seize them, i dip the cattle and sell them for the: expense incurred. Mr. Foy, representing the defend-! ant, made the point of unconstitu-! tionality. Peter F. Bahnsen, state veterinarian, was an interested spec-) tator, stating to Judge Munro that | it was the Tesire of the department i of agriculture of the state to have a ’ test case made in the matter of cat-; tie dipping. The case was postponed by Judge! Munro until September when he will go to Butler to hear it. ' The case is of particular interest | because of the wide discussion re-1 garding the state dipping law.

(By Associated Press) —A movement looking to the removal of a statue erected at Troy, Ala., just after the Civil War •to John Wilkes Booth, slayer of Abraham Lincoln, has been launched by Mrs. Cal I). Brooks, pres ident of the Woman’s League of Re-1 publican Veters of Alabama. Mrs. Brooks declares that protests j against the statue have come to the . league from many sections of the I country and she believes the time I has come when such acts as placing | the'shaft “will be frowned upon by; all good citizens of the South regard- ! less of party affiliations.” An injury has been done the South | as a whole, she says, and a wrong impression created, North, East and West. In order that there may be ‘harmonious union of interest, North, i East, West and South,” Mrs. Broksl has called upon all political faiths! of the South to join the league in plans to remove the Booth shaft. The statue was erected by funds ; gathered by semi-public subscription ■ at a time when partisanship was keen and when Booth was looked upon by; G. E.
