1917 RECORD YEAR
in CO.. LIVE STOCK
Local Markets Enjoy Greatest Year
I'm Number and Values

Hand county's largest year i'm the
live stock business ends this
week. Stock men agree that the
numbers and total values involved
are greater for the year 1917 than
during any previous year. This is
particularly noticeable with regard
cattle and hogs in the county today
than ever before, and production will
be greater for the next year.
This increased local interest in live
stock has been greatly aided by the
local dealers who have made a state
market here, by their activity in the
business. Perhaps the admitted lead
ership in this business would be con-
coded to Chas. +. Schriver, of Miller,
who is a t~ireless worker on the live
stock market, and whose genial per-
sonality and honest dealing has made
him popular with all stockmen of this
locality.
During the past year he has bought
and sold thousands of head of cattle
and hogs and been upon high speed"
from early morning till late at night.
Few men could keep the pace that he
sets, and do 1t as pleasantly and good
naturally,
Charley" as everybody calls him,
has taken a lay off and gone to Los
Angeles to spend the balance of the
winter with his mother and sister, but
will return in the spring to continue
his business. During his absence
Fred j. Colman will have charge of
Mr.. Schriver's business at his yards
i'm this city.

killed and shipped east for Christmas
meat. Joe Depner recently made a
trip to eastern cities and found a

it possible to find a ready market for
buffalo meat at a dollar a pound.

ROCKHAM DOCTOR
SUED BY Co. OFFICER
Preminent Faux County People Take
Case to Potter County

Gettysburg News-Circuit Court
convened In special adjourned session
Tuesday. The principal case up for
trial Is the case of Elmer Irwin, now
OF FauIkton but until recently of
Rockham, against DR.. Henry ]. See
of Rockham.
The case grew out of an accident
sustained by the plaintiff nearly two
years ago. He was at that time work
ing In q butcher shop and when riding
out into the country his horse fell
with him and his leg was broken. DR..
Seeman was called to set the broken
leg. Later it seems that blood poison
ing or gangrene set in, and after a
~protracted hospital experience the leg
am~putated near the hip. He al
ieges malpractice on the part of DR..
Seeman and asks heavy damages.
In the fall OF 1916 Mr.. Twin made a
for Clerk OF Courts OF Faux
county. and was elected. He was at
that time using crutches. He has
since secured an artificial leg. and
walks without crutches, although no
ticeably lame. On account of his cam
paign In Faulk county, and on account
of the wide acquaintance of both
parties to the action In that county.
the Ease was transferred to Potter
County for trial before a jury not ac-
quainted with the parties. and having
no knowledge of the matters at issue.

HURON MANS TALK
CAUSES HIS ARREST
Pioneer Architect Issenhuth Up
Against the Law for Pro.
German Talk

Pierre Dakotan-Just as the train
was about to depart for the east yea
terday afternoon. Deputy United
States Marshal Villas arrested Geo.
Issenhuth, a prominent business man
of Huron upon the charge of sedition.
Coming in on the train in the morning,
Mr.. Issenhuth became excited in con-
versing with two travelling men, about
the war, and his language became SO
emphatic that the travelling men upon
arriving in Pierre preferred charges
against him and he was arrested. He
was taken before United States Court
Commissioner Whitcher and bound
over under $4,000 bonds to appear at
the next term of court.
Mr.. Issenhuth Is reported to have
said; 1--WE must all take off our hats
to the Kaiser. He Is justified in doing
everything that he Is doing. He
started the war because we were pre-
pairing for war and IL was up to him
to strike the first blow. The German
government is Of very high standard
and the atrocities claimed by our
papers to have been committed by the
German government are untrue. We
are living under a corrupt govern
ment."

George Issenhuth is an architect,
and a pioneer resident of Huron. He
was the architect on the Commercial
Club and Bushfield building in this
city, and has been engaged upon this
kind of work all over both Dakotas
for many years. He is a German, and
is a brother of the Hon. Ed. lssenhuth,
a former state senator of Redfeld,
who is called the father of South Da-
kota's good roads law.
The government of the United
States will not permit such talk from
any citizen, and IL is exceedingly fool
ish for any one to try 1t, after the
numerous warnings that have been
published by all newspapers.

Persons who are inclined to be cap
tiOus because The Reformer' news con-
corning the recent activities of the
First Vermont regiment has been in
definite should bear in mind that all
newspapers are under voluntary cen
sorship. The federal government has re-
quested that secrecy be observed III
regard to the train or boat NOV ement of
troops. '.Such information is at all
times and under all circumstances dan
gerous and should be scrupulously
avoided" says the latest bulletin issued
by the Committee on Public Informa-
ton for the guidance of newspapers.
And so in the hope of being of assistance
to the government in its military poll
cies The Reformer needs the reqsest OF
its officials.
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1917-08-22

The grade crossing collisions between
automobiles and locomotives are bring
ing a more terrible toll this year than
ever before. The news stories in The
Reformer yesterday told of an accident
at North Charlestown, \. H., in which
four persons were killed and of another
smash at Saybrook Junction, Conn,
where only one little MANNED survivor
remained out of the nine people in a
big touring ear. Accidents of this
kind can always be avoided by the ex-
ercise of q small degree of caution. The
one at North Charlestown was an I'M
usual exhibition of carelessness, the can
being driven upon one track and stopped
while freight train was passing on the
other track.
