Older Iowa lawyers protest slurs in supreme court files
Des Moines May 16. Older practitioners demand libelous matter not be included in state supreme court records in the Gooney vs. Touby case from Buchanan county. B. E. Hasner and John J. Ney argue that insulting statements in a legal context constitute libel and must be remediated, citing Ney’s history as a judge and questioning the use of terms like scurrilous in the opposing brief. The dispute centers on whether such remarks belong in official court records and how history is portrayed within the argument.

Attack on Girl Still a Mystery
Town Falls, May 15. The attack on Miss Ciara Mark northwest of the city last week remains a mystery. A tank stave found on her bed matched three staves from another farm owned by her father. Bloodhounds traced the scent to the same place, suggesting the assailant took the stave there and delivered it to the Mark home, but no convincing evidence was found and the case was dropped for now.
