This fact became k today
when rumors from Slick were verified
by three imputable sources.
The payments of the premiums
on the insurance have been made reg-

ficials, and the re(.bal of the oom-

tinuous strife which has been gring
between the Bray-Kuteti factions of
the South Creek county city for some
time.
The notification of the insurance
companies was given at the last reg-
ular meet tog of the board which was
fce!d on Monday evening.
Another chapter of the Slick school
board fight will be added on tomor-
row when the mandamus hearing of

Asked by the Herald as to what
action could be tak'yn In the cane to
protect the nchool property from loss
in case pf fire. Grady Lewis as-
sistant ccuntv attorney said that un-

to the school boat'd, but that it fre-
quently gavo legal advice to the
school boards in order to save mcney
for the boards.
AfirtManaJ information this after-
noon given the Herald was to the
efeet that insurance upon residences
and other property within a radius
of one block in all directions had been
cancelled by several insurance com-
panies. The reason for .Amcellatioa
of insurance upon these properties,
too, was given because of the great
risk involved In carrying further In-

WET-DRY TO
BE ISSUE IN
1928FIGHT
Both Wets and Drys of
Opinion Prohibition
Will be Presidential
Issue in 1928.
By Carl D. Groat
(ITnitetl Press .^aff CorrespontlenU
WASHINGTON. Nov. 4— Prohibi-
tion is defined, In the opinion of
wets and drys here today, to become
the dominant 1928 presidential cam-
paign issue.
Drys are already laying plans
with this Issue in mind.
The national temperance council,
the United Press leirns. will can-
vene here next month with the 1928
campaign—on a dry-wet basis—as
its chief topic of discussion. This
organization is a sort of super-or-
ganlzatlcu. embodying the anti-agloon
league and all other dry. groups.
Wets, too, foresee that prohibition
will be the fighting issue of 1928.
Drys assert the Tuesday election
results leave unaltered the strength
they have had In congress hitherto
and that state referendum* have
not fundamentally altered the prohi-
bition situation.
But, th# see in Governor A1
Smith's New York gubernatorial vic-
tory a sign that a wet is likely to
be strongly in the lists as demo-
cratic presidential campaign timber.
Wayne B. Wheeler, head of the
nntRsaloon league here, contended
the Tuesday outcome allowed the
drys won "In every etatt\ where
they ihad a flgt.tlng chance except
Massachusetts,” that the wets "got
only nine out of 35 senators eltectod,"
and "Over 300 members of the house
with dry record* or pronouncements
have been elected.”

Althrugh the .-date had planned to

from the preliminary skirmishes, of
the first day to the actual dtory of

it fcbhl been promised. Alexander
Simpson, special prosecutor said he
"had plenty of witness s” who could
tell the *i~ry of the actual murder
with out Mrs. Oibpn.
The latter, however, has always
been regarded as the keystone of ih i
■itate's evidence. She confirmed 'her
supposed knowledge by .permitting the
United Prests to Islulist her yes-
teillay afternoon, before her reported
colic pee
Asked what she thought of the trial,
she said vehemently: <
"It.* all a lot of nonsense. They
know who did It and are wasting
time.”
“When are you going to testify?"
Mrs. Oibson wa-i a>ked.
"Anyctlme they want me to,” she
replied. "I’ve told the truth and they
know I’ll tell It again." *
It was recalled that throughout t,hie

"Was Henry Steven-t unuer the
crab apple tree?" she was asked
"Say young man. don’t go asking
me anything about it. "cause I won't

Mrs. Gibson was taken during the
night to a Somerville hospital with
a high temperature. It was believ-
ed that she would not be called to
testify until this afternoon or to-
morrow.
Mrs. Anna Hoag, the next witness,
gave to tbe case a new turn when
she said that on ttbe night. of the
murder, >dhe had heard four Hholt
fired in the vicinity of the Phillips
farm. Her testimony was the first
decided surprise of the day.
She followed the deweriptien of the
firing she had heard, with a state-
ment that a year after the murder
