From Mondays Daily.
Friday was an unlucky day for
Iowa booze fiends who visited Ceylon
and Welcome by auto and undertook
to return into the dry state with
their wet goods says. The Fairmont
Sentinel.
Dolliver people have been loud and
insistent in their complaints that the
north and south highway n their vi
cinity was unsafe for travel on &C
count of the booze wagons from all
parts of Iowa plying thereon to the
wet ports of Welcome and Ceylon.
On Friday the authorities quietly
and unexpectedly took decisive ac-
ton. The county attorney of Emmett
county and the sheriff, with num-
Der of deputies, and representative
of the attorney generals office 1t
Des Moines, took up position on the
wooden bridge across the creek one
half mile south of the state line At
a convenient point in a grove near
by a justice of the peace set up a
temporary office.
The Booze Fiends Halted.
AS the automobiles began to ar
rive from points north they were all
halted and searched. If booze was
found it was confiscated and destroy
ed and the driver of the car handed
stiff fine and it is reported that be-
fore the days work was done some
$4,000 had been collected in fines and
$1,000 worth or more of liquor con-
fiscated and destroyed
One car refused to obey the order
to stop and instead put on more
gas. The officers opened fire on the
tires and at least one of them went
fiat but the driver kept right on go
ing and was not apprehended. 1t is
said this car was loaded to the top
with booze and that the officers get
its number and expect to land their
man yet.
John BarIeycorn Was Hot. u
AS car after car was stopped and
the penalties imposed there was
weeping and waling and crashing of
teeth and not a little profanity Some
of the outlaws stood upon their dig
nifty and declared they would insti-
tute legal proceedings against the
officers for malicious destruction of
property and other high crimes and
misdemeanors but the officers we're
not worrying.

WILL NOT GO INTO MERGER
Local Candy Firm Frowns On Plan to
Form Combination.

In the June issue of The Confection-
ers' Review an article is published in
regard to an attempt by G. H. and M.
F. Dirnberger of Buffalo, N. Y, to
combine confectionery houses over
large part of the eastern and middle
western states. 1t is stated that
meeting for this purpose was recently
held in hotel at Rochester, N. Y. 1t
is stated that the plan was to start a
combination with a capitalization of
$10,000,000.
According to the article, the scheme
appears to have proven abortive, the
confectionery men failing to take the
interest in it that they were expected
to take. 1t is stated further that the
report is in circulation that the at
tention of the United States depart
ment of justice has been called to the
feature of the alleged scheme relating
to the control Of prices.
The general manager of The Con-
fectioners' Review has addressed
letter to The Free Press, stating that
it is understood that several concerns
in Mankato have been invited to join
the proposed consolidation. The at
tention of F. M. Currier of the candy
factory of Rosenberger & Currier, was
called this morning to the article and
the letter.
"This is the very first have heard
of that matter" said Mr.. Currier. ut
may be that an attempt was made to
start such project. / do not think
such a rvoject could succeed. 1t is IL
legal thus to control prices, and, even
aside from that, do not think it is
possible in the candy manufacturing
business. This business is not like. that
of producing oil or steel, for one con-
Germ may be able largely to control the
raw material supply for those cornmo
dities. In candy making, it is differ
ert To boost the price of candy I'M
duly would quickly mean keen COM
petition. 1t is easy for concerns to go
into the candy making business"

f|GHT|NGEA|R CRAFT
STRENGTH OF 10000
That Is Planned BY the Govern
ment For Service Across
Water
UNITED Press Dispatch.l
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Washington, June 18.-An American
aerial navy of 10000 fighting airships
is now planned by the government
to be produced during the first year
of the war against Germany. The
craft will consist of three classes,
training planes, bonding machines and
observation air craft.
Battle planes, which have great
speed, are now being constructed in
England and France, and the American
government intends to leave, to these
nations the function of producing
such ships for the allies.
The regular aeroplane factories of
the United States will be far from ade-
quate to turn out the nurnber of
planes that the United States de-
sires. Therefore the government plans
to commander factories of various
kinds to a certain extent to manufac-
ture various parts of the airshipS that
the government must have. These
will include furniture factories and
automobile factories. The actual
work of manufacturing the panes
will begin as soon as the $600,O00,00
appropriation for that departm ent of
the governments fighting mac hinery
becomes available.
1t is intended to have aeroplanes
that will travel 70 to 100 miles an
hour. This is rather slow speed.
The battle planes that Great Britain
and France are manufacturing will
travel $50 miles an hour. The new
American war planes will cost about
$4,000 each. aa
1t is also planned to establish
aeroplane training schools at Dayton
Ohio; Champaign, ILL.,; Detroit, Mich,
and other places.
