HARTMAN MEETS HILL CUT.
Reduces the Lumber Rate From the
Northwest.

IN VI buWcbbs
Important reductions in the freight
rates on lumber and articles manufac-
tured therefrom, including building ma
terials, between the Pacific coast and
the east are to be put into effect by
the Southern Pacific and its connections
as soon as the necessary tariffs can be
prepared and filed with the interstate
commerce commission.
The reductions are the direct result
of the enforcement of the orders of
the interstate commerce commission in
the Northern Pacific coast lumber rate
cases, wherein the rates from Oregon
and Washington to the east were re-
duced. The rates will provide for a
reduction Of from 5 to Is cents hun
dred pounds; for example, the rate on
lumber, laths, timber and articles TAX
ing the same rate to Chicago is 70
cents. The new rate will be go cents.
To New York the old rate is 90 cents,
the new rate rs cents. The rates on
sash, doors and blinds and other build
ing materials to New York will be re-
duced from 80 to rs cents, and similar
reductions will be made to all points
and destinations named in the tariff.

Mine Belches Smoke.

Immediately following the explosion
dense column of smoke issued from
the shaft and it was feared fierce fire
was raging at the bottom of the mine.
A short time afterward the smoke al
most ceased.
Rescue work was started Immediately,
Inspector Louttit assuming charge, but
it was impossible to gain entrance to
the mine for long time. The opening
of the shaft was the only solution, and
for this task there were volunteers in
numbers sufficient to work short relays
of as many men as could find room for
operation.

Construction work was practically fin

GUILTY TREASURER OF SAC
Late County Treasurer Of Sac County Sentenced
to Ten Years in Prison.

w. II. Pettes, late treasurer of
Sac county has plead guilty of the
charge of stealing $4,000 from the
county and Judge Church sentenced
him to ten years at Fort Madison.
He had previously maintained that
he was innocent. He made false en-
tries in the books and kept things
apparently right for years. The
members of the ordinary board of su-
pervisors are not competent to check
up the books of an expert 5ookkeeper.
1t is wise to make a change in the
Office of treasurer quite often.

was not up to what had been hoped.
but nevertheless there were represent
atives from nearly every town Of inn
portance in this part of the state.
When it came to the speakers on
the program, the selection could hard

them had won distinction in their line
of work. We wish that ali the
addresses could have been taken
down in shorthand or handed in for
printing and thus permanent record
secured. With these in hand. the
teachers could make the more use

The GREAT FUUI
BALL GAME
DENEON TEAM PUTS UP A BRILLIANT
FIGHT FRIDAY.
COUNCIL BLUFFS H. S. DEFEATED
Score 6 to 0 With Many Individual Fine Plays
and Good Team Work For Denison.

On Friday afternoon in the first
snow storm of the season, Denison
High School defeated the heavy
Council Bluffs High School football
team by score of 90. In spite
of rain, snow and mud there was q
large and enthusiastic crowd pres
ent, and their loyal roofing was quite
factor in winning the game.
The Council Bluffs team averaged
1856 pounds while the Denison boys
averaged only l45. Council Bluffs
also has professional coach. Blea-
master. captain and quarterback of
the Grinneil team last year. In
spite of those advantages though they
made first down just three times DUR
ing the entire game.
Council Bluffs won the toss and
chose the north goal and Denison
kicked off. 1t was Immediately de-
inonstrated that Denison's line was a
stone wall, and Council Bluffs kick-
ed. Denison was forced TO kick after
q couple of short gains, and so the
ball see sawed back and forth till a
Council Bluffs back missed catch.
Andy Daniels happened to be passing
that way, so he tucked the ball under
his arm and carried it over for touch
down, afterwards kicking his own
goal. Later in the half Council Bluffs
tried forward pass which struck the
ground before being touched. and that
same youth nabbed the ball and wad-
ed through the mud for another touch
down. The referee refused to allow
it though, claiming the ball was deac
where it hit the ground. There is
no rule to that effect, however, bu,
no one on the grounds seemed to know
it at the time.
The Council Bluffs coach was right
vexed at the way things had gone
the first half. and explained the mat.
ter fully to his boys, so they came
back the second half determined tt
win. They made first down three
times during the second half, but
