The rest of the business is up to the prosecuting attorney and the courts. We use the plural term, for no doubt the prohibition agent will see to it that the alleged offenders will be asked to settle with Uncle Sam, as well as the state of Iowa.It seems like easy money for* the moonshiners and booiie runners, but they are dividing a good bit with Jones county. These kind of offenders paid to Jones county between July 1, li)22 and July 1, ID23 the sum of $4,150 in fines and $406.50 in costs, to say nothing of what they paid to Uncle Sam. Gerties and Ulferts heretofore paid $500 each, Weers $400 and House $300.Deputy Marshal Heuly of Cedar Ilapids was in the county today picking up the alleged violators of the law.

S. commissioner, who will undoubtedly hold them to the Federal grand jury, at least such as he may select to answer the complaints of the government.TliA RP.mi-ntlnmil mpotlnn* thp Hn-
