A Varied Program Is That of Being a
County Attorney, Says Penn Jackson
WHILE no engineer will admit
Y that he is “afraid” to run his
engine, this writer knows from per-
Isonal experience that none could
fail to realize that within the twin-
kie of an eye he could span the
Great Divide—and many of them
do. Perhaps it is this that turns this
engineer’s mind ever and anon to-
ward the kiddies back at home as
he sends his steel monster hurtling
along the silver rails.
If county Attorney Penn J.
Jackson did like a lot of peo-
ple who visit his office want him
to he’d spend most of his time
running around over the coun-
try “‘bawling out” folks. ,
‘ The county attorney gave •
when in a mood and having the
time for such discussion. He
declared that almost everytime
: a person had a disagreement
with some other person they
wanted him to “go and talk to
them and bawl them out about
it” but did not want to file
charges. .—-—

Leahy Found Sane
GEORGETOWN, July 27—(UP)
-Harry J. Leahy, condemned to die
WE have always had, a warm
T place in our heart for the men
who roll the throttle and weld the
we have in a great way bee
- Many are the things that
come to his attention. One of
the things he had to contend
with Saturday was giving a boy
about 15 years old a lecture for
E going by a man’s house and
calling him names at the top of
his voice. The boy never ac-
knowledged that he did it but
d on pose 4
. promised not to run with “that
7 bad crowd anymore.”
Quite a number of cases are
filed by the county attorney’s
department but they represent-
only a small part of the many
that are discussed for investi-
gated. It’s surprising how a per-
son gets “cold feet” about fil-
ing charges when the time for
doing such is at hand.
The average person does not
want trouble and wants to keep
out of it therefore they want to
leave the task of filing the
charges or doing the lecturing
up to the officials, one of the
principal officials sought being
the county attorney.
Mr. Jackson told of a case he
had investigated the other day
where a disagreement arose
over some small children and a
woman was alleged - to have
brandished a pistol. A neighbor
wanted this cut out and told
the county attorney so.
It’s a program of variations,
that of being a county attor-
ney.

gray horse was heard in jus-
tice court and resulted in the
plaintiff getting the equine.
That settled that but the path
toward a settlement regarding
the mare was not so smooth.
Suit was brought for title and
possession of the mare in Jus-
ties court and the defendant
won. But the case was appeal-
ed to the county court and the
plaintiff was successful in ob-
taining title and possession of
the mare.
The cases involved snueh
trading,selling and arguing
and the equines in the case
had different pastures in which
to roam. They got variety out
out of the affair anyway. ”,
All the trouble started when
one man loaned another one a
horse to break “ and ride for
his use and the latter got the
wrong horse out of the pasture
by mistake. The man who was
thought to be its owner would
not allow the horse to be
brought back to his pasture
when in the course of exchang-
ing the equine had reached the
stage where it was the opinion
that the horse should go to its
own pasture.
A man later having the horse
filed affidavit to impound it as
a stray and it was sold for $14
and later was given to another
man in payment for a part of
his wages at a price of $15.
Then the horse was traded
for the mare but the original
owner alleged the gray horse
was his and filed suit and got
the equine.
But the mare had been trad-
thus far. •--
The local department was in re-
celpt of a gallon of ice cream Fri-
