says, "and when l went to my first as

the stars and stripes floating over it l
remembered my mother had taught
me that my first duty was to the flag,

this line with the executive officer who
had received me when l came on board
and who was one of the strictest disci-
plinarians in the navy of that day.
Silence, sir" he roared at my first
question, his face red with anger. 'Si-

COMPLAINANT ASKED
CHANGE OF VENUE
Case of Beaver Mfg. Co. VS..
Davis Carriage Co., Sent
to Henry County.

The case of the Beaver Manufac.
turing company of Wisconsin against
the Davis Carriage company, manufac-
turers Of assembled automobiles and
buggies and carriages of this city,
which was to have been tried in the
circuit court on next Tuesday has
been sent to Henry county on a
change Of venue by the complainants
An effort was made to continue the
case until after December 1, but the
counsel for the defendant objected and
on the strength OF this objection, the
complainant asked that the case be
tried elsewhere. declaring that the de-
fendant corporation exerted an undue
fair and impartial trial could not be
held here for this reason.
The complaining company alleges
that it had a contract with the Davis
company to supply engines for it's as
sembled motor cars. 1t alleges that it
fulfilled it's end of the contract by
sending engines in good condition and
as required by the Davis company
However the Davis company alleges
these engines gave the company a
great deal Of trouble and were finally
found very unsatisfactory. Instead of
being in debt in the sum of $1,000 to
the Beaver Manufacturing company
as this corporation alleges, the local
concern has filed a counter claim
against the Wisconsin firm in which it
demands $4,000
The motion for continuance was
filed by Shiveley and Shiveley, counsel
for the compliments, setting forth that
pert designer of automobile engines,
and Fred Hanson, foreman in the en-
gine department of the company's fac
tory, and two Of their important wit
nesses. could not be present if the trial
was held next week. In the motion for
continuance it was set forth these two

of tn engines supplied by the Davis
company, but the fault of the local

knowledge of the business which re-
suited in the difficulties it had with
the engine.
The factory foreman for the Beaver
Manufacturing company says that on
visit here in February, 1910, he found
conditions at the local plant such that
in his opinion it was not the fault of
the Wisconsin hrm that the engines
| went bad. However. all material ale
cations are denied by the Davis cor
poration. which has had singular sue
cess in the automobile busnises in this
city. finding a ready market for all of
the machines which it has turned out.
The local firm denies the assertion of
the complainants that it's workmen are
not experts in their respective line and
that the firms equipment is not ade-
quate.
When brought to trial the case
promises to last for at least two weeks
Several points of law, which are very
delicate are to be brought up and the
testimony to be adduced will be con-
siderable. The firm of Shiveley and
