Collin it 1 wiui ' hope that a dUanreeable matter might uot burden the public. It l recognised by every Intelligent sym pathiser with Mr. Leonard that la publishing his affidavit he did the only thing left for him lo do. In the extremity of not having wlinemtea In the rase. In the cane of Mr. Collin 11 U au open secret that he baa sworn, In the affidavit tn this Uue t the Enterprise, In conflict with rep resentatlous made to cltliens of In dependence who examined Into the jnatter early in the controversy. There were various and sufficient reasons, outside ot this, that Influ enced the publisher of the Enter prise to trr to discourage the pub lishing of these affidavits, primarily, that the matter has to deal with vio lations of law. in the procuring and use of beer within the limits ot In dependence, and that In the original drafts ot the affidavits they dealt with low and vulgar slander that would prove an embarrassment to the readers as well as the publisher of this paper. i Since Mr. Leonard has gone on record with an affidavit in which he makes oertain and definite charges, It would appear that the proper re course in the extremity would be In an action for defamation of character rather than to resort to affidavits in tended to cast discredit on the sworn statement of Mr. Leonard. Further, it appears that it is unfair o Mr. Leonard to resort to this man-, ner of defense, since it was his only , recourse. j These are some of the reasons why i the Enterprise attempted to discour age the publication of these affldav- j Its. In closing on this subject, it' might be well to state that the pub-; lie of Independence has well-defined i opinions regarding the matter which will not be influenced by the publica tion of the affidavits which appear! in this -issue of the Enterprise. j Swift Packing Plant Opens lrtlatid's U new packing plant ijusl completed by the 8wift Interests Ibogsii killiug livestock yesterday trow now on.

Decided In Affirmative In the public school debates which took nlace in Polk county lout Friday night at Independence, Monmouth, Dallas, Falls City, Perrydale ana Ballston on the question. Resolved: "That Immigration should be further restricted by an illiteracy test." all, with one exception, resulted in a de cision for the affirmative. It would appear that the question at issue might have been decided somewhat on the merits of the question rather than on the merits of the individual debaters. In the debate at Indepen dence the home team had the affirm ative and was represented by Bessie Hartman, Marie Jones and Gretchen Kreamer. They debated against Falls City team composed of Laven Gott fried, Edward Gottfried and Chloe Seymour. . At the conclusion of the debate here the debaters and Judges were.
