Doctor DOchterman
Returns, to WillistOn

After an absence of about five
months, DR.. Dochterman has returned
to Williston, and decided that he will
take up his work here again. He will
have Offices in the Hedderich Build
ing.
Commission in the army last fall and:
left here for the officers training
camp at Fort Riley. Upon being
mustered out he went to Tulane Uni
versity at New Orleans, Louisiana,
for his regular Post Graduate work,
where he spent three months, during,
which time he made three weeks:
trip to South America, having been
appointed Chief Surgeon on one Of
the United Fruit Company's big ships
on it's regular run. On this trip they
touched at Colon, Santa Marta, Costa
Rica and visited points along the PAN
ANA Canal and other places in Cen
trail America, encountering very
severe storm in the Caribbean Sea on
the return trip. The Doctor then
finished his work at Tulane, visited
Cnc HOSPITALS LII SIACdSO q IC" U0y0
and came out to Missoula where Mrs.
Dochterman was attending the Uni
versity of Montana. Mrs. Dochter-
man accompanied him home.
The scarcity of doctors at New
Orleans, because of the War afforded
great opportunities in surgery for,
those attending the clinics and as the
Doctor has been giving surgery spe-
cial attention in his post graduate
work, it gave him the class Of work
he most desired. Two years ago he
spent three months at the New York
Post Graduate School in New York
City and has taken work at Chicago
under Murphy, the great surgeon andI
also at Detroit, Philadelphia and the
Mayos, aiming to keep in touch withs
the latest methods as he will devote
more of his time to surgery.
We are glad to welcome the doctor
back to Williston.

Million Dollar
Band Coming

The Million Dollar Band which en-
listed in the war from Harvey, N.
D., started on tour of the state on
Tuesday and will play in Williston
sometime in the near future.
This band which is composed of
North Dakota boys spent consider
able time in France and while there
was given second honors among the
many bands from the United States
that were there.
The boys who have returned from
France proclaim that this band was
by far the best band over there and
should have had first place instead
of second but due to the fact that
General Pershing had a band there
they gave them first place out Of re-
spect for the General. ~
The dates that they will play in
Williston will be given in next weeks

ANY LITTLE NOISE

IF anybody had told me fou1
years ago that l would be vel

but Tan1ac has rid me of nv stom
ach trouble and helped me so il
every way that now I just feel like
a different person." said Mrs. PhiliV
| kromphardt, who lives at No. 80:
Fifth avenue, Peoria. TO a TanIas
representative the other day. Mrs
Kromphardt's husband is>employe6
at the Holt factory.
Il was in such badly down
condition" continued Mrs. Kromp-
hardt, land SO nervous all the time
| was just miserable My stomach
seemed like it could hardly digest
| anything and I was getting worse
every day. My nerves were SC
badly unstrung that I couldn't
sleep well at night and / would lust
lie awake for hours and my ewes
would burn from lack of sleep. ANY
| little noise like something drop
ping on the f1oor-a knife or spoon
would make me jump and 1 suf-
fered lot of pains in my back; in
fact. l didn't know what it was to
be free from pain.
My stomach finally got so bad
that almost every bite 1 ate soured
in my stomach and the gas would
rise and press on my heart SO that
| was troubled with palpitation of
the heart, and l got so weak that
when | would try to go ND stairs I
would have to stop and rest time
after time on the way up. 1 hardly
every went down town because nv
strength would almost leave me
entirely before / could get back
home. I dragged along this way,
always tired and WORKOUT, so long
that [ had just about given up all
hopes of every being well again,
because I had tried so many medi-
cines and spent so much money on
treatments without getting any re-
lief.
"A friendof mine came in one
day and said that she had some
good news for me and she began
telling me all about Tanlac and
how-ft had helped her. Before she
left she made me promise that l
would try just one bottle, anyway,
SO the next morning I had my sis
ter go down to Sutliff & Cases aft
er it and that first bottle just did
wonders for me.
MY nerves began to quiet down
and could sleep better than l had
any time in the last four years and
I'd get up in the morning Just feel
ing fine. | got SO L had a good ap-
petite and relished my breakfast.

BARS MAY CLOSE
JULY /, BUT SOME
DEALERS SAY NO
1t was all a joke, folks.

1t was all a joke, folks.
| The saloons aren't to close July
l, after all
At least. that's what the liquor
men of Peoria say, and, as dis
pensers of booze in the greatest
liquor manufacturing city in the
world, they speak with some little
authority.
License Inspector Nick Lidwi-
noski admitted today that OF the
226 saloons in Peorai, less than
half dozen proprietors are actu-
ally convinced they will have to
close their doors July l.
"The saloon keepers are pinning
their faith on the peace conference,
declared Inspector Lidwinoski. at
may be hard to see any connection
| between the peace conference and
the 'bone-dry' question, but the or
der closing the saloons July / was
| a war measure, issued by the food
administration. When the peace
conference officially brings the
war to an end the liquor men de-
clare President Wilson will have
no other alternative except rescind-
ing the order"
Rud Vonachen, former president
of the Peoria Retail Liquor Deal
ers' association, and for 10 years
vice president of the state organ
fzation, backed up Lidwinoski's
statement
at would be a great surprise to
a majority Of the liquor dealers if
we have to close July l." he de-
clared. Press dispatches make it
appear certain that the signing of
the peace treaty will end the war
within very few weeks. The July
l closing order will then be re-
scinded."
Vonachen admitted that the ga
loon men have a deep-seated hope
that il July goes by with no clos
ing of doors the national prohibi-
ton amendment itself, which is
slated to go into effect Jan. 1, may
be side-tracked.
Several cases are now up in the
eastern states aimed at the prohi- |
hibition amendment" said Vona- |
chen. These test cases will de-
eide several important questions. |
The liquor men are attacking pro- |
hibition on the ground that the
prohibition and the conf1scation of !
liquor and the liquor business, |
without compensation, is unconsti- |
tutional. We expect to win these
cases. The fact that many of the
states ratified the amendment with !
out referring the matter to a vote
of the people is also a strong point
in our case
The overwhelming vote against
allowing manufacture of beer and
light wines in Michigan was a bit
ter blow to the liquor men. It was
believed that this election, togeth-
er with the recent wet" victory in
Chicago, might be used to bolster
up the wet" fight against national

SECRET SERVICE
MAY BE USED FOR
FIGHT WITH VETS

Washington, April 21.-The de-
partment of justice is not averse
to accepting the functions of en-
forcing the wartime prohibition
measure when it goes into effect
July 1, it was learned today.
Consequently, it is expected a
proposal that the enforcement be
entrusted to this agency will be
submitted to President Wilson on
his return from Europe, and that
he will be urged to take this action
under authority of the Overman
act, which permits him to transfer
duties from one government de-
partment to another.
Discussion of where the power
to enforce prohibition may be
lodged was prompted here by the
recent announcement of Internal
Revenue Commissioner Roper that
his bureau had not the force to po-
lice the nation adequately with re-
spect to prohibition violations after
July 1.
Has Agents Available.
Attorney General Palmer has
not stated officially that he will
welcome the additional duties of
enforcing prohibition, but it is said
that his advisors in the department
of justice have told him the cessa-
ton of war work has left a num-
Der of secret service agents avail
able for some other kind of work,
and that they could take on easily
the liquor enforcement function.
There have been no reports in
dicating whether the president was
considering seriously suggestions
said to have been made to him by
high government officials that the
effectiveness of wartime prohibit
ton be postponed from July
through declaring the period of
rehabilitation at an end.

Copy Shown Him.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, August Sec
rotary of the Navy Daniels authorized
statement yesterday in which he told
briefly Of the circumstances that led
to Admiral Rodman's announcement
Thursday night at banquet that a
speech he had prepared in advance would
have to remain in his pocket. as Sec
rotary Daniels had censored it and
told him not to use it. Secretary
Daniels said:
admiral Rodman showed me q
COPY of a speech that he had written
and I commented upon it and advised
that a certain paragraph be omitted.
I did not know that I was acting
in any offlcial capacity as censor at
this time, nor did know then that
the speech had been sent broadcast
in advance. Had known that copies
were in the hands Of the newspapers
I would have made no objection to
the use Of the speech.
1.-THE speech was shown me and !
commented upon it in an informal
manner"
A paragraph in the admiral's speech
which the Secretary thought should
be eliminated referred to possible fu
ture wars.
Admiral Rodman laughingly said that
the whole affair amounted to nothing
and 'it didn't bother me bit.
