Buckingham Up for Moonshining

A dispatch from Eugene, Ore,
tells of the capture Of two moon
sinners and their outfit ten miles
from that place. one Of the oper-
ators being Hubert Buckingham,
who at one time lived in Kamiah.
The sheriff had information that
a still was being operated in that
locality for some time and ar
ranged with the revenue officers
from Portland to raid it. They
approached the plant at noon
and were evidently seen by Buck
ingham and Clover, as they were
in the act Of destroying the watts
and corn meal mash when the
officers arrived. Buckingham
and Glover were armed with riff
les but submitted to arrest with
out resistance. They admitted
that they had been operating a
still which the revenue officers
declare was the largest ever
found in the Willamette valley.
They had a large quantity of
material from which illicit whis-.
KEY was made, but none Of the
finished product was found

Buckingham is well remember
ed here. where he had a varied
experience. He was a son-in-law
of Fl. G.. Murch. former well
known citizen of Nezperce. who
was accidentally shot and killed
near Eugene some two years ago

COTTON SHORTAGE
 4A,5OO,OOO BALES
Germany Had Made Use of Many Ezpedients to Ob-
 tain Staple.

Washington, March 20-Germany' s cotton shortage is estimated to be 45OO.070 bales of 500 pounds each, in OH 1cial dispatches based on t4e opinion of European experts and made public today.
 When Germany began hostIities in 1914. the country had on hand only about 500, 000 bales of raw and man ufactured cotton. a supply sufficient for three or four months The pre- war consumption had been two mil lion bales annually. much of which was exported, but the cessation of exports was fully offset by military needs. so that the country's require ments were not lessened- The stocks on hand were supplemented to the ex- tent of 100000 bales by seizures in invaded districts.
 Many expedients were described as having been used by the Central Powers to obtain the staple through neutral countries, and in the first three years reasonably large quanti- ties of cotton goods were imported in that way.
 Substitutes for cotton made from paper. nettIes. etc. were not very successful. and only 10 per cent. of Gernany's normal domestic cotton 1 consumption was met in that way.
