slials and moonshiners, in the Jack
Fork mountains near the boundary
lines of Pushamataha county, can b
looked for within the next twenty
fetir hours, according to
the office of United Stat
Victor.
Marshal Victor and District Reve-
nue Collector Will Irwin are at the
head of a posse of twenty-five men,
and at daybreak this morning left Hu-
11 for the mountains, where four
-tills have been located.
A few days ago Irwin arrested Geo.
Johnson, an alleged k< ntueky moon-
shiner at Hugo, who i- alleged to
have made a confession implicating
others Irwin left for Hugo last night
;.iul wired the office here for assis-
tance. He was instructed to swear in
as many men as he needed and take
the moonshiners.
It is stated illicit stills are being op-
erated in large lumber camps and the
state authorities have made no at-
tempt to arrest tin in
