HOW 1T WAS SETTLED.
Sheriff O'Brien Holds a Court of His
Own.

Sheriff O'Bren came up from Montgom-
cry Friday night TO investigate the slight
disorder in his office occasioned by the es-
capade of Deputy Sheriff Robert Waldrop
who was out on the warpath Thursday
afternoon.
A quiet examination into the fact was
made yesterday by the sheriff who held a
little court of his own. Deputy Waldrop
admitted that he had done wrong and
Sheriff O'Brien rendered his decision be-
tween pre-emptory discharge or the pay
ment of a half months salary to be dis
posed of in such a manner as Sheriff
O'Brien saw fit. Deputy Waldrop accepted
the latter proposition and thanked the
sheriff for his leniency. Sheriff OBrien
then decided to give one-half to the Mercy
home and the other to the Sisters of
Charity hospital.

such turbulent one in the legislative halls

on the appointment of Colonel John w.

GERMANY is a GOOD CUSTOMER

No matter what the governments

Germans prefer American-made goods

1t is a significant fact in connection
with this displacement of Great Britain
that We bought less goods OF Germany
than did any oiher nation. our total
purchases for the year amounting to
only S7S5u,O0 Il must also be borne
in mind that this marked increase in
our sales to Germany was affected IN
the face Of the constant agrarian agi-
taticn for more stringent inspection OF
our food products and for restrictive
embargoes upon our meats.
That Germany is certain to become
our most profitable customer. next TO
Great britain, is indicated by the
deaIth OF raw materials in that coun-
try Germany is dependent upon the
outside world for raw materials for
her manufactures as well as for a
good portion Of her food products. At
the present time many branches Of
industry in Germany can work only
half their force because Of the lack Of
raw materials. The rolling mills are
unable to get enough pig iron to keep
them going. although they have large
contracts given by the government for
its railroad stations and rolling stock,
as well as from private corporations
and electric railways.
