BLIND PIGS ARE
RAIDED BY SHERIFF
FOUR AT IRON RIVER AND ONE AT
CRYSTAL FALLS IN THE NET
ALL SHERIFF WANTS IS AID
Sheriff Says That He Will Gladly
Enforce the Law and Wants to do
so But Can't do it Alone

AS result OF raids by Sherin Sensl-
ba, FIVE Illicit liquor dealers In this
county were brought into the tolls.
The piggers who were caught are Ar
istrid Mettifogo of Crystal Falls, Ted
LaDuke, two Italians and shoemaker
in Iron River
The raids were made by the sheriff
assisted by j. e. Udd, deputy sheriff
from Crystal Falls. Chas. Mcfarland
and Mike Monohan OF Iron River. John
Lind assisted In the raid at Crystal
Falls In an interview with Deputy
Sheriff Udd last Sunday that official
stated that Sheriff Sensiba told him
that he (Sensiba) wanted to raid the
blind pigs OF the county. that he had
tried TO do so with the deputies he had
appointed and the attempt was fail
ure, that he knew of no one who want
ed to mix up in the affair, Mr., Udd
told che sheriff that personally he had
opposed the local option but that when
II came to question OF enforcing the
law. now that II is law. the sheriff
could call up on him at any time he
felt so disposed and he would do his
duty to the limit. Sheriff Sensiba with
this support imediately laid his plans
for several raids. the first being at
Iron River. The Ludington House.
kept by Ted LaDuke was the first on
the list The sheriff and Marshal Nc
Farland entered the place by the front
door, Mr.. Udd being assigned TO the
rear entrance
II seems that Sensiba and McFar-
land got into the place before Udd and
had nipped some beer that was placed
upon the bar, making II apparent to
the hangers on what was doing. An
elderly Swede who was an habitue of
the place trigged what was up and, re-
membering that there were some bot
ties OF beer in a sack in rear room,
he slung the sack over his shoulder
and was Just going out the door as
Udd entered. running right into the
deputy's arms.
"Herel Herel What are you doing?'
said Udd.
"Iee tank lee skaal go home" re-
piled the other but Udd took him back
to the building and got possession of
the beer. It is stated that regular lager
beer. labeled with the brewing labels
were found in this place.
Poured whiskey Into Boot
Another place raided in Iron River
was shoemaker shop. This place was
one Of the first violators of the local
option law and II has been known
right along that liquor was TO be hal
there but until last week ii couldni
be got hold OF,
When Mr.. Rutledge was In this
county last fall this place was raided
and although the raiders felt certain
that liquor was obtained there none
OF the stun was found on the premises.
This time the goods were found and
the fellow NOT only gave up but told
how he managed to evade the search
last time.
II seems that he had his whiskey in
a jug and that he had few minutes
warning of what was doing He didn't
have enough time to get out OF the

The national and state potato asso-
Citations have combined in show at
Grand Rapids this year that promises
to eclipse anything ever held In the
nation. The national association is
composed OF potato growers from all
over the nation, the president being w.
A. Martin of Maine, state that has
heretofore held the lead in potato
growing. The state association is made
up of county associations and individ-
uals throughout this state with A. l..
Hopkins OF Bear Lake as the president
The Iron County Potato Association
has members in this organization and
among the displays will be one from
Iron county. Mr.. Hoopingarner had
printed some placards reading as
follows
Get Some IRON POTATOES. A
standard of Quality. Northern Grown.

Mr.. Hoopingarner expects to dis
pose of some seed from this county
through the agency of this display and
to make this show the opening wedge
for big sale of Iron county potatoes
in the future.
Proposed Central Board
While in southern Michigan and
Chicago, Mr.. Hoopingarner will have
some important conferences with
loaning agencies in the lower part OF
this state and in Illinois looking to-
wards securing the help OF land loan
ing companies TO help develope Iron
county Mr.. Hoopingarner has had
this matter under advisement for a
long time and feels that the success or
failure OF the project is very close at
hand.
In his work throughout the county
he has found the chief deterrent factor
TO be lack OF available loaning funds
on real estate security. Farmers can
get accommodations at the local banks
for.the moving OF their crops and other
small needs but they cannot get any
assistance to aid them In the clearing
up OF their lands. The banks cannot
loan on real estate security and there
are very few people in this county
with idle funds. Thus relief must be
got from outside and II Ia to get such
relief that he In seeking the conference.

The shipping season OF 1915 was
closed last Saturday night so far as a
regular output is concerned, There
may besstraggling shipments flor a
week or so but the regular shipping
season may be taid to have closed
with the first day OF December The
last properties to send out ore on
regular cargoes were the Carpenter
and Balkan mines. The Balkan has
made fine record from It's open pit
this year and the Carpenter will be
welfap in the list OF shippers.

dispensed with It's extra night crews

The st. Paul got the bulk OF its

system will probably keep on the
usual switch run TO serve the Iron

winter.

of the Multnomah A. A. G., Portland,

a frequent visitor to the gymnasium
of the New York Athletic club There
his work against men from twenty 20

attention of the members and profess
SIGNALS alike. Frank seems to have
mastered all the fine points of the
game and all who saw him at the

in the tryouts. He acquitted himself
cleverly, winning his three trial,

style and was by far the cleverest
man in his own or any other class

Missouri boosters of the Old Trails
road. Let's see just how the figures
stand.
At the road convention in Columbia
August 6, Judge J. NJ. Lowe said that
the Old Trails Road was not going to
be built eventually" it was going to
be completed within the next twelve
months, dating from lne road meeting
in Kansas City June 9.
One-third of the route now is hard
surfaced highway The Old Trails
Road across this state is about 215
miles long. That leaves, say. about
1874 miles of Missouri road to be hard
surfaced before June 9, 1916, if Judge
loves prediction is to come true.
There is about nine months and two
weeks in which to do the work.
Since June 8, Boone County has
done her part, bids now being re-
ceived by the city of Columbia for the
paving of Fyfer Hill, the only un-
paved line in the Old Trails Highway
across the county.
Where the highway is in poorest
condition, however, little or nothing
has been done toward improvement.
From the present outlook, Judge Lowe
will be disappointed on the morning
of July 8, 1916. when he starts across

COUNTY HAS CANNING FACTOR
"Cedar Lawn" Products TO Be Sold by
A. Traxler and Family.

A home canning factory which
promises to become a profitable busi-
ness has been started this summer by
A. Traxler, his three sons and two
daughters on their farm near Turner
Station. The Traxler family bought
a canning outfit this year and are
planning to can hundreds of pounds
of vegetables, which they mean to sell
to local merchants. Next year they
intend to sell to out-of-tOwn mer-
chants.
Three thousand cans of tomatoes.
grown on one acre, already have been
canned by this family. They can from
$50 to 200 cans of corn a day, from
$50 to 400 cans of tomatoes and from
200 to 800 cans of string beans.
Cedar Lawn" is the name that will
be placed on all the cans.

CHAPTER XI
Always Two by Two

1t was January when a guide from
the post brought Paul Weyman to
Henri Lofts cabin on the Waterfound
He was man of thirty-two or three,
full of the red-blooded life that made
Henri like him at once. If this had
not been the case. the first few days
in the cabin might have been unpleas-
ant, for Henri was n bad humor. He
told Weyman about it their first night,
as they were smoking pipes alongside
the redly glowing box stove.
1T is damn strange" said Henri.
81 have lost seven lynx in the traps,
torn to pieces like they were no more
than rabbits that the foxes had killed.
No thing-not even bear-have ever
tackled lynx in trap before. 1t is
the first time l ever see it. And they
are torn up so bad they are not worth
one half dollar at the post. Seven!
that is over two hundred dollars |
have lost. There are two wolves who
do it. Two-I know 1t by the tracks
always two-an'-hever one. They
follow my trap-line an eat the rab-
bits | catch. They leave the fisher
cat, an the mink, an the ermine, an
the marten: but the lynx-sacre an
damn!-they jump on him an pull the
fur from him like you pull the wild
cotton balls from the burn-bush. I
have tried strychnine in deer fat, an
/ have set traps and deadfalls. but |
can not catch them. They will drive
me out unless ! get them, for | have
taken only five good lynx, an they
have destroyed seven.''
This reused Weyman. He was one
of that growing number of thoughtful
men who believe that mans egoism, as
race. blinds him to many of the
more wonderful facts of creation. He
had thrown down the gauntlet, and
with logic that had gained him a
nation wide hearing, to those VINO be-
lieved that man was the only living
creature who could reason. and that
common sense and cleverness when

PROSPERITY FOR COLUMBIA.

That times are good, that Columbia
is growing, that the University and
the colleges are increasing in their
enrollments is plainly to be seen by
the number of carloads of furniture
that come into Columbia every day.
One transfer company has unloaded
ten cars of household goods in the last
week and has about fifteen applicants
on its file to unload shipments later
on in the month Out of the ten car
loads which were in the hands of this
company last week, the contents of
three cars are in its storage house be-
cause the owners have not found
houses yet to move into.
The real estate men say that they
have fewer empty houses on their
hands now than at any time previous,
and that it is hard to find desirable
houses for their applicants. One
prominent real estate man, who owns
and has charge of about thirty houses,
has only one that is vacant. He had
this rented, but the family had TO
move away on account of the i'll health
of the chil1-en.
DESPITE tie adve-rc aCn- items
which have prevailed in Missouri for
many yelrs, the state cnce more is
getting back to nor-aal coalitions.
Columbia should grow. no; only be-
cause of natural causes, Lut also
because of the fact of its good fnan-
cial conditions. Taxes are low.
The city has larger surplus in its
treasury than it has had for some
time. The administrative and execu-
tive officers seem to be men who are
alive and capable. Crops are good
this year. In fact. social, economic
and political conditions all are good;
So it is in order to look forward to
prosperous era for Columbia and its
vicinity.
