Sheriff Determined To Clear Up
Alma Murder Mystery.

Sheriff Newell M. Bradford of Ora
tiot county told The Alma Record re-
porter this week that every possible
means would be taken TO insure final
success in hunting down the murderer
Of Beatrice Epler. the 17-year-old
Alma girl who was killed almost at
her doorstep on the night Of Tuesday,
September 4th.
The offer of the $4,000 reward given
cut by the papers of the county last
week. within a few hours after hav-
ing been favorably voted by the board
Of supervisors. has not brought any
result yet, but there is every conf
oence expressed that sooner or later
the big reward being offered will
bring results in this case, one of the
most mysterious, if not the most mys-
FERROUS, that the county has ever had
tc contend with.
Sheriff Bradford says that every
possible clue will be hunted down un-
III it is an absolute certainty that
there is nothing behind it, that might
be brought out, which would shed
light on the brutal murder of the
Alma girl The officers now have d
clue which he believes to be one of
the best that has so far been discov-
cred but so many have been chased
down which led to nothing that not
many hopes are being entertained
that this one will bring results.
Sheriff Bradford also told The Rec
ord reporter that if anyone had q
promising clue and wanted to see il
through themselves, that he would
appoint them as deputy sheriff So
that they might work on the clue
which they had reason to believe
might lead somewhere and finally
bring the murderer Of Beatrice Eplel
to justice.
More time and more money has al
ready been spent upon this case thar
IN hunting down any other case in tn,
history of the county, and there j!
every indication that a great amour
OF time and considerable more none,
will be spent Ger the officers eve
give over the case to go among thu
unsolved murder cases Of Michigan
Sheriff Bradford and his deputie
and the prosecutors Office are deter
mined to bring the case to fina
conclusion by bringing the murdere
to justice, if time, patience and none.

CENSUS A SURPRISE.
City of Alma Is Still Below the
1000 Mark. 'Tis Said.

Wilbur Price, of the postoffice
force, who has been spending the past
three months taking a census of the
city for the local postoffice, broke
some sad news the first of the week,
when, at the completion Of the count
of the people in Alma, he announced
that there were less than 1000 souls
in the city.
Mr.. Price believes that he has
counted in practically every person in
Alma, but does admit that there may
have been very few who escaped
the count. He won't admit, however
that a thousand or that three thou
sand people escaped being counted
ard as Price is usually careful IL
what he says, we won't be able. Il
claim 10000 population for some tins
to come.

.lumors Of More Strikes
Among Omaha Workmen

Rumblings Of the possibility Of
more local strikes among workmen
we're heard Friday night at the regu-
lar meeting Of the Central Labor
union at the Labor temple.
R. Cleary, delegate from the cleo
irical workers union, reported that
some OF those unionists had been
locked out by boss electricians, who
had declared they would not hire
union men in the future. He asserted
that an attorney for the Business
Mems association had refused to con-
fcr with him in the matter.
The Central Labor union thereupon
went on record as not favoring any
affiliated union allowing its members
TO work on jobs, where members OF
any union had been locked out.
Secretary John Polian OF the Cen.
trial Labor body indicated that the
action might lead to strikes by other
unions, which had work to do on
jobs where the electricians consider
ed themselves aggrieved.

united. This will mean wonders for
the future relationship of Canada and
the United States. We feel more like
brothers than ever before"
There was much speculation along
the front as to the manner of Ameri-
can participation and an almost uni
versal wish that the United States
should be represented on the fight
ing line at the earliest possible mo-
ment, if only by brigade or division
Mingled with the universal desire
that the war should soon be ended
was the generally expressed hope
that it would last long enough to
give the Americans chance at the
Germans.
Apart from the purely military
view, the soldiers keenly appreciated
the moral weight of Americas deci-
sion. I'VE know how delighted we
are and cannot help feeling that the
news will equally depress the Ger
mans" was the expression, not of
one British officer, but Of scores.
Some of the British officers reiterated
the view expressed to the correspon-
dent when diplomatic relations were
severed that American participation
might first consist OF the sending of
special detachments, such as avia-
tors, machine gun sections and bat
teries of artillery.
While the Canadians are loath to
lose the services of any of the thou
sands of Americans in their ranks. it
was stated at headquarters today that
it was realized that, with an American
force in the field, many of these
splendid soldiers would desire to be
released so IS to serve under their
own flag. Their long training and
experience under most desperate bat
tie conditions would prove an inval-
liable aid, it was conceded, to an
American expeditionary corps. Many
of these men might also be available
for return to America to help in train
ing, cit is also expected that America
will ask that large number OF its
officers be attached to the British
army for observation and experience
under the actual conditions OF Euro
pean warfare.
Toasts were drunk to America at
many a front line dugout tonight.
The British look forward eagerly to
the participation of America, thus
helping to completely outlaw German
militarism. 1t can be truthfully said
that the khaki-clad army faces the foe
tonight with renewed determination
to bring about quick and decisive
result

into the estate of new form OF public

News from Washington Causes
Great Enthusiasm, specially
Among the Canadians.
WILL NOTIFY THE GERMANS

With the British Armies i'll France,
April 6.-(Via London. April ~
The news OF the action of the United
States senate in voting for war with
Germany reached the tar-hung west
crn battle line today and was hailed
with cheers, Nowhere Is the gratifi-
cation greater than along the section
of the front held by the Canadians,
with whom many thousands of Amer
leans are serving. Many Canadian
and British companies were busy to-
day preparing signs to Fold up over
the trenches, telling the Germans the
tidings from Washington. This is
the fsvorite plan of the Tommies to
convey all sorts of bad news to their
enemies across No Mans land.
&c Rid of Your KAISER"
German prisoners taKen today had
not heard Of President Wilson's ad-
dress and knew only in a vague way
of the breaking of diplomatic rela-
tions in February. Some of the trench
signs which we're prepared included
a brief translation into German oil
the presidents statement that Amer
lea was entering the lists against the
German government and not against
the German people. Others included
the latest slogan:
mo peace with the Hchenzollerns; y
while still others read: Get rid of
your kaiser"
The British army as whole has ie-
garded America as practically in the
war ever Since the severance of rela-
tons, the news of which was greeted
as the best news which had reached
the trenches for many months. 1t
was said then that active participation
was only matter of time. The presi-
dents address was just reaching the
front trenches today III its entirety.
The gist of the speech mad been sent
out by wireless and also by telegraph
and telephone, but the soldiers gen.
orally preferred to wait for congress
sional action before spreading the
news to Fritz"
Papers Eagerly Bought.
On their way back from the front
trenches today the troops who had
been relieved eagerly bought two
days old London papers from the
French newsboys, in order to read
the American news and the text of
the presidents speech. In the little
French estaminets, cafes and villages
behind the lines there was great ex-
citement among the old civilians and
the polus on leave. One old gray
haired Frenchman, waving bit of
writing paper, said he was sending
the good news to his son in the
trenches so as to be sure he would
not miss it.
The weight Of America thrown into
the scales just at this juncture, in
what is regarded as the critical year
of the struggle, has sent a renewed
thrill of confidence all along the
front. One could sense it everywhere
today. Visiting Canadian headquar-
tiers and the Canadian trenches the
correspondent was greeted every
where with outbursts OF congratula-
tons. One young captain, whose
mother is American, said;
Il feel like hugging everybody in
sight. Everywhere | have been today
wanted to call out the soldiers and
ask them il they had heard the good
news. We Canadians now feel that
our American family has been re-
