If some OF the hundreds here that

perfectly natural that the disease
should spread through such a cause.
But that the disease was spread from

ARMED SQUADS ARE ON GUARD
THREATENED BATTLE OVER DAM
AT NoRTHoME MAY RIVAL
DiETZ AFFAIR.

Northome, Mimi, Aug. 1S.-A dam
case which may develop into melo-
drama equal to that which is being en-
acted at Cameron dam with John Dietz
in the title role is the controversy
which is going on between A. A. Tone.
local attorney, and the Bachus &
Brooks company.
The lumber company, in putting in
a spur to Bartlett lake, Is alleged to
have trespassed on land belonging to
Tone, by cutting down his timber and
grading the land for railroad purposes.
They also constructed a dam, said to
be on his property, to stop the stream
OF water, SO that the level of Bartlett
lake would be raised to enable them
to float their logs to the landing place.
Tone served notice on the lumber COM
pany demanding damages. 1t is al
legged that the company agreed to
make settlement, but failed to do so.
Tone then had trees felled across the
right of way that had been cut and
graded, posted trespass notices and
blew up the dam.
Inc company rebuilt the dam, Dut
this time on state land. and hired a
number Of men. armed them with
rifles and set them as guard over the
property. AS the railroad spur is not
for public use, the company will not
be able to have the land condemned.
While Tone was out Of town a few
days ago the company removed the
trees across the grade and started
work on the road again. Foreman W..
Stack and Bert Munson were arrested
and brought before Justice Duncan,
charged with trespass. When Tone re-
turned he had more trees felled across
the grade and placed guard over
them. There are now two bodies of
armed men within a few hundred rods
OF each other. and the situation is ex-
ceedingly tense.
