murder in Pemiscot county?
1--WE would like to know Just what
per cent. local option has reduced
crime in general in Pemiscot county,
including that of bootlegging and the
illegal sale of whiskey and beer, as
these are law violations?
"We would like to have a statement
from the records of the circuit court
and from each police Judge and magis
trate in the county.
I'VE would also like to know how
much local option has reduced the
cost of criminal prosecutions in Pemi
scot county?'
Now, if the above is not plain and
to the point, we would like to know
the reason why, and we are confident
that it is sufficiently clear to battle all
efforts of the biased, prejudiced and
conjurers to successfully misconstru
and futher, that no person of normal
mental faculties will attempt to mis-
conStrue or misstate it.
1t is a question that we have per-
perfect right to ask, and we are en-
titled to the answer, even if we have
to 90 personally and prepare if from
the records of the county.
But the Pemisot Argus last week
takes the editor of the Herald to
task in personal strain, and reels off
Il full column of sermons, lectures,
generalities and soothsayings, the
full purposes and intents of which was
to laud itself at the expense of the Her
aid. But the little scheme will not
work
Our question must he answered. and
no evasionS will do
We would be glad if the Argus
could answer our question and would
greatly appreciate the answer, but the
Argus must not attempt to draw US
into a controversy. If there is any
thing we deteSt it is a newspaper dis
pute and wrangle, and for our part
we are not going to give any occasion
for Observation-Disclosures are going
to conline our remarks to facts that
concern the public.
To show the manner in which the
Argus approaches the Herald, we
quote the following:

On July 22 we said and asked the

BOARDS
RECOGNIZED
Especial to Silver State.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-During the
past year seventeen associations of
western stockmen have applied to the
forest service for the recognition Of
their advisory boards, swelling the
total number of associations thus
recognized to forty-six. The recogni-
ton accorded entities an association
to receive notice of proposed action,
and an opportunity to be heard by the
local forest officer in reference to in
crease or decrease in the number of
stock to be allowed the following seas
on, the division of the range between
different classes of stock and their
conditions, and in every case the rec
concentrations of the advisory boards
non-members, and the other interests
involved, will allow.
This cooperation is of value both
to the stockmen interested and to the
government. The stockman is afford
ed an opportunity to work out his own
destiny; the government has the bene-
fit of his training and experience in
meeting the complicated situations
which arise in connection with its ad-
ministration of the national forest
land. By this means the division of
the range between cattle and sheep fs
conducted amicably, bringing about an
absence of i'll feeling and bitterness.
The necessary reductions to provide
for new owners or prevent damage to
the range are distributed to the best
advantage and in the way which will
cause the least inconvenience or loss
to the ones affected. Seasons are es-
tablished which will secure a maxi
mum of use of the range with a mini
mum of damage, and questioned fees
are promptly adjusted, while conflict
ing claims to range and resultant dis
putes are settled with the associations
more often than by appeals to the gov
eminent officers. Wherever an asso.

ALL SWITCHMEN
MAY WALK OUT
GENERAL STRIKE PLANNED
THROUGH EAST
Cold Weather Complicates TangIe on
Hill Roads-Condition in Pacific
Northwest Declared to
Be Better
[Associatsd Pressl

BUFFALO, n. Y, Dec. 5.-Authority
to call a strike of all union sWitchmen
between Buffalo and Chicago, if such
a course is deemed necessary, is vested
in committee of the union, which VIII
go to Chicago tomorrow to negotiate
with general managers of the nineteen
railroads for a settlement of certain
demands.
A referendum vote to obtain the SEN
timent of the organization and to give
the committee a free hand was taken
some time ago, according to Grand
Vice President Burt. The district east
of Chicago includes not only Toledo,
Fort Wayne, Detroit and other i'm
portant centers, but also takes in
points as far south as Pittsburg, so
that ranks of the strikers will be in
creased by between 10000 and 15,OOO
men if negotiations at Chicago fail.
The demand to be submitted at Chi
cago will be for an increase of cents
an hour, time and a half for overtime
exceeding a 10-hour day, double time
for Sundays and holidays and mod;-
fication of the physical test. Notice Of
these demands was sent to general
managers of the lines in Chicago on
November 6, so that the thirty days
limit in which a reply must be made
expires tomorrow.
Vice President Burt today received a
telegram from President Hawley that
the situation in the northwest is satis-
factory to union officials.

COLD WEATHER ADDS
TO COMPLICATION OF
STRIKE IN ST. PAUL

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Dec. 5.-The
switchmen's strike situation has been
complicated by cold and snowy wealth
er, which has seriously affected traffic
on the Northern Pacific and some parts
of the Great Northern, according to
statements issued by the general man
ayers of those roads tonight.
General Manager Slade of the Nor
thern Pacific said freight is more or
less tied up all along the system on
account of snow and especially in Nor
thern Minnesota and North Dakota.
Passenger trains are being run with
two engines. All trains from the north
and west arrived from one to four
hours late in st. Paul tonight
The Northern Pacific has all the men
here il needs and the new arrivals are
being shipped west.
General Manager Gruber said the
Great Northern had moved between
sixty and 100 cars Of wheat into Min
neapolis today and that freight was
handled at the Minnesota transfer to-
day for the first time since the strike
began.
He said heavy snow storms at Sioux
City, Grand Forks and Devils Lake
and in Montana are interfering with
traffic and that the work of switching
is necessarily slow. One hundred and
fifty men arrived today from Chicago
and st. Louis Most Of them will be
sent to western points.
President Hawley of the Switehmen's
union said he had received word from
