AMERICAN OFFICER
PUTS DOWN REVOLT

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN
GERMANY. Nov. T.. (By the Associated
Press. Single handed, an American in
telligence officer recently put down a
revolutionary" movement in the area
on the Rhine occupied by United States
troops.
The first the Americans knew of tho
revolt" was when news reached army
headquarters that Lueta, a village OF
200 population, a red flag had been
hoisted and was waving in the breeze
at the tip OF a 70-foot pole, When
the American officer arrived In LuetS
the revolution conceived by a society
calling itself 'Frohsinn' CHARITY and
composed of young men, most of whom
were discharged German soldiers, was
well under way and non of the inhabt-
tants could enter or leave the. village
without proper passport provided by the
society members.
Luetz, like many German villages n
the hills, has no troops III the town,
the army depending upon an occasional
patrol to keep in touch with events.
The American summoned the gemein-
devorstaher. or the chief official OF
the town, who informed the OFFICER tina
This was the third attempt Of the
nFrohsinnists" TO rule the village and
that the action was directed against
the Catholic priest for whom the young
men had a pronounced dislike.
The American officer summoned the
executive council of the society, pro-
vided them with pick and shove
and had them dig up the flag pole,
amid the applause of the conservative
element Of the village. He instructed
the hurEomaster to withhold until fur
ther notice any authorization for meet
tngs OF the "Hilarity,' gave the execu'
tive council a dressing down and In.
ytructed the one German policeman e
patrol Luetz at all hours on Sunday;
when most political meetings are held
Each member of the executive coun
cir promised to be good hereafter ant
none of the society members were ar
rested. They agreed that the American
had convinced them that revolution
did not pay. The revolution had laste'
six hours.

IN. Surby, manager of the Rapid
River Mining Co., passed through
Grangeyille the first of the week en-
route to the mines. Mr.. Surby had been
attending a meeting of the stockhold-
ers held recently at Genessee, Idaho.
In speaking of their property, he
made known the fact that the com
pany had been working a crew of men
all winter running a development tun-
mel on the property six miles above
Pollock. This tunnel is running in on
gold and copper lead three feet wide
that is showing exceptionally high
grade values. There are seven claims
in the group containing three lode
veins, and the present workings will
ultimately give a depth of over 1000
feet of stoping ground.
The country being operated in by
this company is ideal for mining pur-
poses, there being good tunnel sites
plenty of splendid. mining timber and
abundant water power, and will be but
six miles from the new state high
way
The company expects to install a
complete hydro-electric plant this fall
to run their new saw mill and air com
pressOrs and will then keep a large
crew constantly at work.
