Laswell at Ft. Madison, la. J. W. who was di.r barged from the city court a few days ago from a charge of threatening his wife, is again obout and feels that some vindication-is due him to the public.

Laswell came to a close at 7:30 o'clock Wednesday evening, when the jury brought in a verdict of not guilty, after being out only about two hours. "As has 'been stated before Mr.

Laswell was Indicted by the grand jury on the charge of cheating by false pretenses and the trial of the case commenced Monday. The case was instituted by the Lee County Savings Bank, the prosecuting witnesses claiming that the defendant sold cattle on which they held a mortgage and on which he made false representations. The result of the trial is not a surprise to thoso who heard the evidence, but on the contrary met their expectations. "A Democrat representative met Ir. Laswell today and found a very pleasant man to talk to.
