On Monday, June 3rd, a hear
ing was had before Judge Neterer
on motion made by Hermap's
attorneys for a new trial. This
motion was denied as was ex-
pected; but it was necessary
preliminary to an appeal. There
upon the Judge passed sentence
upon the convicted man, condemn
ing him to serve TEN YEARS in
the Federal penitentiary at Nc
Neil's island.
Notice of appeal to the Circuit
Court of Appeals was forthwith
given in open court; and it was
agreed by counsel for both sides
that the bond should remain the
same pending the appeal, to which
the judge assented. The amount
of said bond as stated in a pre-
vious issue was Twenty-Thousand
Dollars in cash, or Forty Thou
sand in property. Although the
bond was fixed outrageously high
in the first place, yet there was
no hope of getting reduction,
so we agreed to $4,000. The
amount was after all of slight
importance as we already had ac-
ceptable sureties to qualify for
$4,000 in property, after the val
uations Of their real estate had
been cut down below actual value,
and it was merely a matter of
getting them before the proper
official to swear and sign.
A little later in the day we
went to the District Attorney
and told him we expected to have
the bond executed and ready in
two days as everything had been
arranged, and asked him if they
would hold Herman for that length
of time, pending the filing of the
bond. We were told to see Judge
Neterer, which we did. The Judge
said: "When | have pronounced
sentence, the matter is out of my
hands. 1t is then up to the
Marshall and the District At
torney."
We then consulted U. S. At
torney Reames, who is the high
est in authority, and he agreed to
have Herman held for the two
days, necessary to secure the
bonds. But in spit of that the I'M
fortunate man was sent to Nc

Emil Herman Unlawfuny Held

oath that his property was worth
$4,000. but the Nabob would not
accept him for ANY amount, al
though he was allowed to sign
with the understanding that the
matter of his acceptance would
be laid before Attorney Reames
in Seattle.
The bond as signed and execut-
ed was laid before Mr.. Reames
His objections to the sureties were
explained and corrected to his sat
isfaction, after which the instru-
ment was o. K.'ed by the judge
and filed-with sureties thereon
qualifying for S65,000.
After all these numerous legal
formalities had been complied
with and completed, imagine our
surprise to learn that Herman was
by this time we'll on his way to
the Federal penitentiary at Leav-
enworth, Kansas. Being called
on for an explanation of this high
handed procedure the authorities
offered as an excuse that, Nc
Neil's Island being overcrowded,
it had been necessary to send
Herman with SO others to the
larger penitentiary at Leaven-
worth.
An order for Herman's release
was sent East by wire, and an
attempt was made to secure his
return at the expense of the gov
eminent, but to no avail. We
had to wire him a ticket and eX-
pense money, otherwise he would
have been turned out on the
streets.
Tuesday morning June 18th,
we received the following tele-
gram from Herman at Leaven-
worth as follows: money has been
received. Notice of bond has not
arrived. Still being held" Now,
the Marshall at Seattle says that
he sent the bond and order by
mail to the warden at Leaven-
worth on June 8th, at the same
time sending telegram giving
notice of the bond and order.
Still they are holding him.

Neils Island early the next morn
ing. Reames says it was with
out his knowledge, which appears
to be true. The blame lies on
someone else.
We have found these to be the
facts: The clerk of the Court
made out the commitment papers
in several cases, including Her
mans and gave them to the
Marshall. The latter took them
to the Judge for his signature,
saying to the Judge: If you
want these men (among them
Herman) sent over at once sign
the papers; if you DON'T want
some of them sent oyer now, then
don't sign until you do want them
sent" or words to that effect
Judge Neterer signed the papers,
including Herman's Commitment,
knowing that we were appealing
and were expecting to complete
the bond within two days, knowing
also that he had told us that he
had nothing more to do with the
matter.
Arrangements had been made
with Attorney Reames to have the
sureties on the bond come before
U. S. Commissioner Mansfield in
Everett to sign the bond and oath
and to be examined as to the
value of their properties. This
was a great convenience for the
sureties, who would otherwise
have been compelled to go to Sc
attic. However, Mr.. Mansfield
adopted the same tactics that were
employed by the assistant dis
trict attorney in Seattle as to the
sureties that we had presented
for approval on the bail bond, in
dicating that there might have
been some understanding between
the Commissioner and the District
Attorneys office. Every effort
was made to prevent US from
marshalling sufficient sureties to
cover the bond. One mans val
uation was cut from $4,000 to
1900. Another signed an oath
that his property was worth $13,-
900 above exemptions, but the
commissioner said he would first
investigate, after which he re-
fused to accept the man for more
than $4,000. Still another signed

IDAHO PR0FITISM

PLUMMER, Ida.-Mr. Herrick
is a lumber baron of Northern
Idaho, Mr.. McCarter is also a
lumber baron of Idaho. the same
in kind as Mr.. Herrick only les
ser in degree, judged by his fin
ancial rating. McCarter oper-
ates several camps around Plum
mer, and sells his logs to Herrick.
These two lumber barons are hav-
ing a squabble over the price
of logs, so McCarter shuts down
his sub-contractors OLeary, Nc
Kee and Drekke and also his own
camp pending a settlement of this
industrial mix-up. Neither one
seems to give damn about In
Gle Sam and his need of lumber
to build ships during this war,
no not at all-they are too busy
fighting a battle royal over the
division of the profits. McCarter
wants more. Herrick says less !;
and in the meantime they have
shut down three camps, thrown
bunch of men out Of employ
ment, slowed down production and
incidently helped out the DEVILS

When the camps around here
were short handed last summer
due to the men going on strike
for an eight hour day and better

of every kind Of crime on the
calendar and especially Of dis
rupting and slowing down pro-
dUction in order to help out
Kaiser Bill of the Bad Lands. The
workers only slowed down pro-
duction during their strikes. These
two men have actually killed it
dead insofar as these camps are
concerned. Will the Daily (kept)

the same as it did the workers
last summer? Oh! no. no, NO!

CHICAGO TRIAL

CHICAGO, Ill. The prose-
cution, in sweeping from east
to west with it's tornado of
testimony" has now reached
the copper fields of Arizona.
Hundreds Of letters and bulletins

trial Union 800 have already been
read to the jury and number of
witnesses have been called upon
to testify about the stormy events
of 1917 that the prosecution seeks
to torture into proof" of the
imaginary l. w. W. conspiracy.
Three of the first witnesses
called gave evidence about
meeting addressed by the WE'LL
known Socialist lecturer, Stanley
j. Clark, who was indicted with
the |. w. w. men because of his
activities in raising funds for the
wives and children of the strik-

held. All three testified that
Stanley Clark spoke to a small
sized crowd from piazza of the
school house on or about the eve
ming of August 21st, 1917. The
alleged "seditious" portions of the
speech were said to be references
to the CONSUMPTION law and Lib
erty Bonds. Clark is supposed to
have made the statement "the
CONSUMPTION law is constitutional
and the government had the right
to make it. 1t differs from the
other laws in that it was mat
ter of individual concern to each
man instead of collective. If

give a plain statement of facts COW
ering the causes that led to the pres
ent world food shortage.
"One of the biggest factors, and
perhaps the deciding factor in this
war, is the question of food" DR.. Cul-
bertson says.
"1n times of peace Germany pro-
duces four-fifths of her own food sup
plies, while England produces only
one-Mfth, France one-half, Belgium
one-tenth and Italy two-thirds of the
amounts necessary for their people.
The seas are sown with the German
submarines and it is easier for Ger
many to starve our allies and our own
soldiers at the front, than it is for
US to starve Germany. Germany may
be hungry, but she will never starve.
"Under normal conditions, before
the war, the allied nations were COM
PEELED to import an average of 40
per cent of their food supplies. Since
the war commenced their production
of food has greatly decreased"
This is part of the story that DR..
Culbertson will tell in our city.
DR.. H. C. Culbertson will speak in
Glasgow on Monday evening, March
4, 1918 at p. M in the High school
auditorium.

LITTLE FARRIS GIRL HAS
TRANCE EXPERIENCE
Unconscious for Three Weeks,
Patient Makes Remarkable
Recovery From Illness.

The following article, which was
taken from the Spokesman Review,
will be of special interest, as Mrs.
Farris and family, formerly resided
in Glasgow. ]. T. Farris, who was
editor of "The Valley County Inde-
pendent" died about a year after
moving to Libby.
Out of the hospital after 40 days,
tn, = weeks of which she was uncon-
scious, Dorothy Farris, age II years,
OF Libby, Mont, enjoyed her "frst
square meal" as she termed it, last
night at the Victoria hotel.
The little miss looked fale and
hearty after an experience that
physicians say is almost unbelievable.
~ with pneumonia, she rapidly
developed spinal meningitis. Her
life was despaired of, but while she
was unconscious it was decided to
bring her to St. Luke's hospital.

weeks" said her mother, Mrs. Alice
Farris, 81 was worn out, and l de-
she was not better the
next morning ! would bring her to

NEW DRAFT RULINGS.

Adjutant General Greenan has re-
ceived word from Provost Marshal
General Crowder that county officials
in the draft age will not be placed in
the deferred classification because
they are officials. General Crowder
holds that where offices can be filled
by appointment the holders of such
offices shall not be entitled to de-
ferred classification.
The ruling also states that ma
tive of Austria Hungary naturalized
prior to Dec. 7, 1917, the date of the
declaration of war against Austria
Hungary by the United States, is liza
BILE under the selective service act and
is eligible for the United States army.
However, a declarant alien enemy
should be classified as such if of
Austro- Hungary nationality.
General Crowder further advises
that the question of alienage does
not enter into the case of natura-
lized citizen, unless there is a doubt as
to the loyalty of such an individual.
In such case the matter is to be. re-
ferred to the adjutant general.

so we decided to bring her here. She
had been unconscious for several
days before we started. We did every
thing that was humanity possible. The
doctor there gave her an injection of
serum, and it seemed to help her.
However, the druggist found that it
was the only dose he had. We tele-
graphed to Spokane, and the serum
was to be sent by mail.
"Unfortunately there had been a
railroad disaster near Troy, and the
bridge went out, necessitating a
transfer around that point, which
took a great deal of time and trouble.
We thought the serum ought to be
on the mail coming in one night, but
the mail didn't get in on account of
having to transfer around the fallen
bridge. We got an order from the
postmaster at Libby, and my son
came on handcar and went through
all the mail for Libby, which was
held up on this side of where the
track was out. After spending all
night in the search he could not find
the serum and returned home.
when we started here with Doro-
thy we left Libby about 5 o'clock in
the evening. On account of having to
transfer around the wreck we did not
get to Spokane until o'clock the next
morning. We were seven hours trans
fering where the bridge was out.
Dorothy was unconscious, but was
raving all the time. was worn out,
and the doctor and friends put me to
bed for a while.
when we got to the hospital the
doctor looked at Dorothy and said she
could not live more than a few hours.
However, thanks to our efforts, she
is here, whole and hearty. She has a
stiff ankle, but the doctor thinks il!
is only on account of lying in bed so
long, and that she will recover en-
tirely."
Dorothy was fed by force while
she was unconscious.
Mrs. Farris said they would wait
a day or two until the little girl got
stronger, and then 60 home.

Service in Many Ways.
Instructions Issued.

We, the undersigned, members of
the local Red Cross Civilian Relief
Committee, have been requested to
urge upon all enlisted men and espe-
cially to those who are shortly to go
into service, the various matters
which ought to be attended to, among
which the following may be listed:
l.. Each soldier should provide him
self with form of application for
insurance, fill it out for the largest
amount possible and be ready to hand
it in when he is accepted for service.
These forms are sent to all Chapters
with Civilian Relief letter No. II.
Arrange Affairs.
2. Advise such men to attend to
the legal formalities that should be
cared for before entering the service,
such as giving to some person his
power of attorney; making certain
that any business affairs still pending
are left in competent hands; making
certain that such property as he has
will be regularly transferred to his
heirs in case of his death.
8. Impress upon the enlisted man
before he goes that the Red Cross is
willing to keep him in touch with his
family, answer his questions about
them when he is away and to protect
them should any misfortune happen in
his absence. Most soldiers enlist with
out knowing that the Red Cross is or
ganized to take care of their families
or to give them information about
their families. This should not hap
pen in the future.
