SOLDIERS PATROL
BUTTE DISTRICT

Butte, Mont, Feb. 8.-With United
States troops patrolling the APP
proaches to the principal mines Of the
Butte district tonight, the companies
continued hosting ore, although with
greatly reduced forces, despite a gen.
eral call issued last night by the
Industrial Workers of the World in
protest against a wage reduction
of 81 a day because of decline in the
price of copper.
Twenty strikers were arrested to-
day and charged with disorderly con-
duct. In the number were two men

fore the soldiers had been stationed.
Additional soldiers are expected to

EXPECT INCREASE
IN MOTORCYCLES

1t is epected xthat with the return
OF our overseas force the use Of mo-
torcycles will be greatly stimulated.
During the war the government spur-
chased $4,000 machines. From five to
seven men were developed as drivers
for each machine, which means that
in our army there are something like
100000 trained riders, experienced in
the care and up-keep OF motorcycles,
many Of whom will purchase new ma
chimes for their personal use. The
motorcycle and allied Trades associa-
lion, has for it's aim the development
of the motorcycle in it's proper
sphere. This association, under the
presidency of H. S. Quinn, is expect.
ing great advance in motorcycle ac-
tivities for 1919. Manufacturers are
increasing their production facilities
and with an expanding market rec
ord year is expected.

dustry's contained in telegram to
the committee given out here tonight
by Former Governor, OBJ. Colquitt.
Mr.. Colquitt declares if the packers
contributed to the fund it was without
his knowledge or solicitation and such
money did not come into his hands nor
the hands Of his state committee. The
telegram, as given out by the former
Governor, follows:~
"My attention was only today call

who Swiped the StenO'S Piano?
the Mystery of 2 TypeWriters
Wherein Minion of the Law in Hot Pursuit of Pair
of Alleged Writing Machines Is Fooled

Judge E. J. Kerwin, special agent
for the department. of justice recently
aided in the apprehension of several
alleged robbers of Interstate ship
ments of liquor, and he was the main
factor in gathering evidence against
them which formed the basis of in"
formations filed before the United
States Commissioner. The work of
collecting the evidence took no little
time and ability on the part of Judge
Kerwin But, now, with the job done,
the judge is again worrying about
typewriters. Rather, alleged typewrit-

But it is not the mere mechanical
idiosynchancies of typewriter which
is worrying the judge now. Two al
legged typewriters which were shipped
from Memphis several nights ago.
bound for Rison, have disappeared.
These alleged typewriters were in
two perfectly good typewriter cases,
and the typewriter cases held, not
tpewriters, but liquor.
The night of the shipment, the
judge was tipped off from Memphis
that the shipment had left there on
Cotton Belt train No. 3. With his de-
tective faculties aroused. the judge
decided that the best thing to do
would be to intercept the shipment
So he got a permit from the railroad
company to ride a through freight to

He arrived there SOME time before
the Cotton Belt south came through.
When it did. the Judge boarded it, and
after investigating in the baggage
car located the two typewriter cases.
Feeling content, and believing that
he had turned a good trick the judge
went back into the smoker to enjoy
one of his cigars.
Occasionally, the judge went into
the baggage room to see if the two
typewriter cases were safe. They
were. FINALLY the train stopped at
Pine Bluff. Here, Judge Kerwin ex---
ercises more than due watchfulness.
But nothing happened. and when the
train pulled out of Pine Bluff, the
typewriter cases were still aboard.

and undoubtedly today many of
these prior issues have been
placed on a much sounder basis,
and are we'll worthy OF attention.
But when all allowance is made
for reduced capital in some cases,
and big war profits i'll practically
all. and even allowing that il
must be some time before the war
profit level is reduced, there is
nothing TO justify the huge adj
vance in some of the junior issues.

at ridiculous figures. Yet il is
impossible to say that they, and
others, may not be hoisted sub

aud in some cases substantially
improved dividends are suggested,
and they may eventuatc. 1t is
the same i'll all gambling move
ments. One may sec that on
merits. and having regard to
years. a stock at, say l40, is at
a ridiculously high level, and yet
it may go substantially higher.
None the less, the day OF reckon
ing comes sooner or later for the
unwary. Do the gamblers think
that the public would allow fancy
profits TO continue indefinitely?
Rather. they care little SO long
as they can find more reckless,

CONGRESS SHOULD ACT

Some OF the drys Ill Congress are
becoming alarmed lest proper legisla-
ton will not be enacted in time to
make War Prohibition effective.
1t will be remembered that War
Prohibition becomes operative the
first OF July. 1t is now less than one
month until the term of the present
Congress expires. and the bill to en-
force War Prohibition has not been
made law. Should there not be an
extra session there is danger War
Prohibition will come without general
laws to enforce it.
OF course, dry states have law en-
forcement machinery, but wet states
have not. The vets have lobby at
Washington working to keep Con-
gress from enacting prohibitory laws,
and il they can accomplish this they
hope to make a farce of War Prohi-
hition and then point to their lawless-
ness as proving that Prohibition does
not prohibit.
By all means Congress should get
busy.
