AUTO RACES DRAW BIG CROWDS

The auto races at the Phillips
County fair at Dodson this week
| proved to be one of the big drawing
cards, and the interest was centered
on the three days auto races, which
proved to be whirlwinds, with regu-
lar speed demons back Of the steer
ing wheels. The races, as pulled off
at Dodson, were just as interesting
as those run by the big three hundred
horse power cars at the state fair
The cars at Helena ran on mile
track while those at the county fair
turned the half mile ring and came
by the cheering crowd in the same
time for the half mile as the big
racers did on the mile track.
The first days race was between
four Fords, all owned in Malta and
driven follows: The DR.. Blanken-
horn car, driven by Louis Nybo; the
j. l.. Moore car, the l.. P. Sanregret
and the Cash Moore cars, each driven
by their respective owners. 1t was a
fast race, with each driver out to
win. In about the fifth mile OF the
race the Ford driven by Sanregret
went into the fence on the back
stretch and was put out OF commits
sion. The other three Fords, run
ming at an average of forty miles an
hour, finished the race with Cash
Moore in the lead by safe margin.
The ]. l.. Moore car went to the bad
with spark plug and put him
considerably behind.
The races grew in interest each
day, with the drivers each confident
OF winning, and in the second days
race the Blankenhorn Ford dropped
out OF the race and Buick six was
put in, but it too went down to de-
feat by the little, but mighty Ford,
driven by Cash Moore. In the get
away Tuesday Sanregret took a.
strong lead and was driving an ex-
ceptionally good race, when on the
first turn in the sixth or seventh lap,
he blew tire and resulted in the
second pileup in the fence for him,
which again put him out of the race
for the day.
The race of the last day was the
best of the three with six cars in the
field, three Fords, two Bucks, and
one Grant.
The real race was between the
three Fords until the j. l.. Moore car. !

Friday night Gov Stewart spent
some time trying to explain why he
vetoed the county division bill four

comes to Malta he makes a mess of

time. He is looking for votes now
and at the time he vetoed the bill he
had sure thing for two years.

President Wilson owes it to himself
and to the country to admit frankly
that war serves amultitude of pur-
poses for the democratic party. Evil
fects, but it has certainly saved the
administration lot of fruitless ex-
PLANTATION and argument.
1t has, for example, enabled the
Democratic party to asseverate, with
4Ather noisy persistency, that there
has been something Wilson has kept
the country out of.
1t has enabled the benignant Mr..
Rcdfield, President Wilson's secre-
tary OF Commerce, to explain why
the cost of living is increasing.
1t is used by the same gentleman
as the occasion for denying that the
expectation OF war supplies has any
thing to do with the country's pros
nerity.
1t has enabled the administration
to bolster up the failing revenues by
levvlng tax on munitions.

OF apology to the pacifists, for the be-
lated recognition By the administra-

why anything in the last three years
has gone wrong, although it ac-
counts in no way for anything that
has gone right.

John Lind that if he couldn't force
Huerta out by promoting the Car

sort to other MEANS" just what

Negro Was Impudent.

At Hon. R. Walter Dickenson's gar
age near Castlewood depot on FRIDAY
before Christmas, Charles Chase. a
colored chauffeur, was shot by Kaney
Boyd, white, the ball which pene-
trated his abdomen causing his death
a few hours later in a hospital in
Biuefeld.
Boyd and two or three other fell
lows were in the garage, and the
negro who had been sent to put the
men out, according to reports reach
ing Lebanon, went at it in a rough
way drawing a gun.
AT the same time Boyd proposed to
swap guns thereby getting the drop
on the negro and then fired.
Chase was said to be an imprudent
negro and little regret was express
ed at his death.
Young Boyd, of family of fine
people, a son of Tom Boyd, fled i'm
mediately following the shooting and
has not been seen. or heard of since.
