PAY TRIBUTE TO DEAD.
Memorial Day Program Was Success
In Every Respect.

Memorial Day was observed in
Crystal Falls, Friday, in a very beht-
ting way, the people Joining in paying
homage TO the memory OF the heroes
OF three wars who gave their lives
that the nation may survive. This
was the first Memorial Day since the
Great War, and it was our first oc-
casion to honor the boys who have
fallen on fields Of battle in France or
who died OF disease in cantonments
in this country.
The program was crowded into a
few hours so that the people would
have the greater part OF the day to
themselves. 1t was similar to those
of other years, the only significant
feature being the world war veterans
section Of the parade.
The parade assembled in the street
south of the Forest Park school at
$3.50 a. m. George Voos, mounted
was marshal OF the day, and Meade
LaPlant occupied his customary place
in the parade. The order OF march
was as follows: Alpha Band, veter-
ans OF the Great War. large flag
borne by the grammar grade boys,
members Of w. r. c. in automobiles,
school children and teachers, led by
Principal Frederick Ek-the children
marched sixteen abreast. The par
ade continued from Seventh street to
Crystal avenue, thence north on
Fifth street as far as Superior avenue
and from there to the cemetery.
At the cemetery the graves we're
beautiful with bouquets OF spring
flowers. The program opened with
the singing Of "The Star Spangled
Banner" after which prayer was Of
fered by Rev. Poyseor.

JUDGE FLANAGAN HAS DISPOSED
OF MOST OF THE CASES
BoYINGToN GOT JUDGMENT
Paul Schook and John Sullivan Ad-
justed Accounts via the Jury
Route This Week

Judge Flanagan said when he
opened the May term os the circuit
court for this county that he intended
to dispose Of every case ready for
trial before final adjournment. The
Judge was as good as his word, for
he came back here after the Mar
quette county term and stayed two
weeks during which time the big
docket. which confronted him when
court opened, has been reduced to
mere fraction OF its original size.
The May term is the first real term
OF court held in over year. or
course. the law was compiled with
by the formal opening OF court on
each date scheduled but, because of
the war, and later OF the flu, Judge
Flanagan thought best to take up
only the most pressing cases and al
lowed the others to go over the term
until very large docket had ac-
cumulated.
Work Resumed Monday.
When we closed our forms last
week the Montambo case had Just
been decided and the jury was being
charged in the Upton VS. Hammer
case. In this case verdict for the
plaintiff was returned, and court ad-
journed over the week end.
Monday was taken up with chancery
work, several divorce cases and the
like, and on Tuesday morning the
Jury was set to work listening to the |
case OF Boyington VS.. Johns.
This action resulted from the deal
ings OF the Boyington Livery, OF Iron
River with VIM. Johns, undertaken.
also OF Iron River. The case brought |
out a controversy over bills which |
Boyington claimed he had never been
paid for and for which Johns had
made collection. also for personal
livery service given Johns.
~ e case lasted all day Tuesday and
most OF Wednesday, the jury retiring
about noon and later returning a YER
dict OF $1,000 in favor OF Boyington.
Additional Jurors Called.
Judge Flanagan sent out a call for
q dozen new Jurors In anticipation OF
the expected difficulty in getting II
men whose mind would be devoid OF
bias when the case OF John Sullivan
VS.. Paul Schook came up for hearing

Life Story Of the Man Who Rose From
the Masses to President of Republic

From an obscure professor OF
mathematics at Maynooth college,
utterly unknown to the masses Of the
Irish people at home and equally un-
known to the eXiles of the race in
other countries, to provisional presi
dent of the republic of Ireland, whose
name is household word wherever
civilization has reached. is the nlete-
oric rise which has marked the last
five years OF the life OF Eamonn De
Valera. who today is the guest of
Butte and the citizenry of the inter-
mountain region.
President De Valeras S life story
reads like romance and today, al
though his name is on everyone's
lips; although he is hunted and pro-
scribed by the British authorities
and although his name and the cause
he represents were thorns in the side
of the diplomats at the Paris peace
conference, but little of his life story
is known to the public generally.
Born in New York.
Strange to the minds of the masses
who greet him today will be the news
that De Valera was born in the Unit
ed States and is not, as generally
supposed, native-born Irishman.
The president of the Irish republic
is neither a native-born Irishman,
nor is he of pure Irish stock, for he
was born in New York of an Irish
mother and a Spanish father And
what is more, he is a young man as
ages go among the priminent figures
in world history, for De Valera is but
81 years of age, having first seen
the light in New York in 1882.
When but a child of two and half
years, he was taken to Ireland by his
mother, following the death Of his
father. OF course, Mr., De Valera re-
tanned but the vaguest recollections
Of his journey across the ocean and
his arrival in Ireland, if he has any at
all However. the widowed mother,
with her fathcrless child, made her
home in Bruree, County Glare, the
ancestral home of her people. 1t was
in this little town that he was reared

bodies while in Butte and several
mass meetings are also being az
ranged
Supreme in the belief that justice
will triumph in the end and that her
husband, Thomas Mooney, who now
is serving a life sentence as the re
suit of a palpable frameup, will be
freed and his name cleared of the
stigma of murder, Mrs. Rena Mooney
arrived in Butte today. She will re-
main in Butte for several DAYS and
on Sunday will address monster
open-air mass meeting here.
In her room in a local hotel this
afternoon Mrs. Mooney met the rep
resentatives of some of the local
papers and during the course of her
interview, gave a clear and convinc-
ing statement of the events leading
up to and since the arrest Of herself
her husband and others on the
charge Of having exploded bomb
during the Preparedness day parade
i'll San Francisco.
Showing but little the strain
under which she has labored for SO
long period, Mrs. Mooney declared
in response to a question that the
reason she has been able to maintain
her health and strength despite her
trials, was because of her faith that
her husbands innocence would
eventually be established.
Since her release under bonds
after spending a total of 22 months
in prison, under Indictment for mur-
der in connection with the same
outrage for which her husband was
convicted, Mrs. Mooney has Travelled

Public Will Not Be Admit

Being Held. in Jackson's
Private Office.

The state commission of trade and
efficiency, consisting of Frank Eliel
of Dillon, who is chairman, N. T.
Lease of Great Falls. and w. o.
Fiske of Hamilton, arrived in Butte
Wednesday evening, and yesterday
held preliminary meetings in the pri-
vate office of County Attorney JOS
eph Jackson on the courthouse.
Plans for conducting the investi-
cation into the causes of the high
cost of living were considered and
adopted. 1t was decided to hold
closed sessions, presumably because
profiteers are bashful folk and might
shrink from admitting the truth be-
fore the accusing eyes Of an audi
ence. Whether secrecy will be con
tinued throughout the entire hearing
has not been decided.
County Attorney Jackson is pres
ent and is aiding the commission in
every way possible. His power in
cliciting evidence from reluctant wit
nesses will be at the disposal of the
board throughout the hearing-eyer
at the cost of temporarily setting
aside less important duties. The
members of the commission, how
ever, are not relying entirely upon
Mr.. Jackson. They are some little
probers themselves. And have hat
some little practice since they were
