ARE TICKETS IN AUTOMOBILE
CONTEST OF WEST VIR-
GiNlA LEAGUE.

The tickets for the automobile that
will be given away by the West Viz
ginia State Baseball League are sell
ing fast and there is a great deal Of
enthusiasm manifested in the contest
Eeach ticket entities the holder to a
chance to win an automobile and also
gives him an admittance to any game
that he chooses to witness during the
season. Fifteen hundred tickets have
been placed in each of the four towns,
Fairmont, Warrington, Grafton and
Clarksburg. 1t is not likely that six
thousand tickets will be enough. Last
year over four thousand tickets were
sold here and by the way that the
three other towns are taking to the
proposition more tickets will have to
be furnished. The machine to be
given away has already been ordered
and will be here several days before
the contest ends.

History of Case.

The fight of John Dietz for his home
dates back over six years. In 1904
Dietz put in claim against the Chip
pewa Falls Lumber company for money
he alleged was due him. The company
is an offshoot of the immense Weyer-
hauser Lumber company. Dietz alleged
the company owed him $1,000 for
services. He and his wife said they had
title to eighty acres of land on the now
famous Cameron dam.
A little later Dietz asked for $4,000,
which, he alleged, was due him as toll
for logs driven through the dam. The
company refused to pay the claim.
Dietz opened the gates of the dam,
stood guard over it with a rife and
soon there were 100000 feet of logs
landed high and dry on the banks of
the stream. The logs became worm
eaten and they were destroyed other
wise.
Then hostilities began. The immense
powers of the lumber interests were
brought to bear against Dietz. Many
attempts were made to capture him, but
he was always too wary. He shot sew
eral deputy sheriffs. He defed the law
Once an armed force was led into
the Dietz stronghold. Three men were
killed. Numerous battles have been
fought and Dietz was only conquered
by being shot down.
