District Attorney Fred Stelwer has moved for the dismissal of the com plaint against Representative J. T. lllnkle and Dr. H. S. Garfield charg ing them with shooting ducks, after sundown.

In the meantime the legislature con vened nnd Representative Hlnkle was one of those instrumental in lifting the scalp of District Warden Averlll and securing the appointment of Pru ltt.

The trial-of the two men waa set for lust week, after two postpone ments, and the day before It was to oome up, was again postponed.
