sP0ERRY BUYS BIGGAR RANCH


A deal was closed last Tuesday af-
ternoon whereby G. w. Spoerry pur-
chased the improved s. w. Biggar
ranch on the south bench, of which
possession will be given in sixty days
The consideration was not made pub
lic
The Biggar ranch is nearly all
cleared, is level and the richest soil
The property is improved with a good
dwelling house, barns and out-build-
ings and this summer, at least, Mr.
Spoerry plans to live on the place.
Mr.. and Mrs. Biggar do not intend
to leave Bonners Ferry and will no
doubt buy a small home near the city
if they find something that suits.
Mr.. Spoerry returned today from a
couple days business trip to Spokane
and this week will occupy his new real
estate offices in the Casey hotel block
He states that he is getting a num-
Der of listings of farm lands and city
property and that he looks for a great
deal of business in his line this season
1t Is possible that he will decide to
divide the Biggar ranch in five and
ten acre tracts in the future and put
it on the market.

truck for the Leach Transfer, narrow
ly escaped serious accident Saturday
on Moyie hill while on his way to a
lumber camp with a load of supplies
On one of the steep parts of the hill

The brakes were frozen so that they
would not work and the truck started
to back down hill. Jesse Leach, the
young son of j. l.. Leach, was riding
with Jarvis on the truck and "Slim"
showed the lad off the truck and stayed
with it until the machine struck a
rock by the side of the road and was
stopped. Jarvis and young Leach
walked back to town through the new
snow, a little matter of IL miles.

YANkS TO QUIT
SIBERIA IN FEB.

Observation-Disclosures to withdraw
American troops from Siberia on COM
pletion of reparation of the Czecho-
Slovak forces next month has been
reached by the American government.
The troops were sent to Siberia In
accord with an agreement between the
United States, Japan and the Allies to
aid the Czechs and protect the Siber-
ian railroad, and Japan has been mott
fed by the United States of concella-
,tion of that agreement insofar as 1t
affects the presence of an American
expedition.
When the Czechs have been re-
moved, the American railroad commits
sion, headed by John F. Stevens, in
Russia since before the fall of the
former Cars government, will leave
Vladivostok for home, and the Ameri-
can soldiers under Major General
Graves will follow as soon as trans
ports are available. Presumably the
same ships which are to take the
Czecho-Slovaks across the Pacific will
be used. Two of these vessels, the
President Grant and America, are ex-
pected to leave New York within a
few days.
With the departure of the Ameri-
cans, Japan will be left alone to assist
the loyal Russians in their efforts to
stem the Bolsheviki. The rapid prog
ress made by Soviet forces has been
a source Of apprehension in Japan and
the cabinet at Toxic has been consid-
ering means of combating what jap
anese officials generally regard as a
serious menace.

DEATH PENALTY
TO PUNISH REDS

Washington.-Speedy enactment Of
a stringent sedition bill by Congress
was presaged when, following passage
in the Senate of the Sterling bill, an
nouncement was made that the House
judiciary committee had agreed upon
a similar measure and probably would
report at once.
One of the purposes of the bill was
said to be eradication of "parlor. Boil
sheviki."
The House measure, a combination
of Attorney General Palmer's original
bill, introduced by Representative d.
Wis of Ohio, and revisions made by
Representative Graham Of Pennsyl
vania, contains stringent penalties for
violations of the sedition laws.
Included is the death penalty which
the bill would have inflicted on the
recommendation of jury on persons
whose activities against the govern
ment lead to destruction of life.
Ban Placed on Red Flag.
The measure also would close the
mails and express companies to sediti.
GUS literature, prohibit the exhibition
Of a red flag in connection with mass
meetings, deny persons the right to re-
fuse to give testimony on the ground
that it might tend to incriminate them
and provide in certain cases for dis.
franchisemnt and deportations.

THE HOME PAPER.

Ex-Governor Francis once said the
following Of newspapers: Each year
the local paper gives from $500 to ST.
900 in free lines to the, community in
which it is located. No>other agency
can or will do this The editor in pro-
portion to his means, does more for his
own town than any other ten men, and
in fairness he ought to be supported
not because you like him or admire his
writings, but because the local paper is
the best investment community can
make. It may not be brilliantly edited
or crowded with thought, but financial
ly it is Of more benefit to the commun-
ity than the preacher or teacher. I'm
derstand me, I do not mean mentally
and yet on moral questions you will find
most Of the papers on the right side.
Today the editors Of the local papers do
the most for the least money OF any peo-
pie on earth.''

PROTOCOL IS SIGNED
Technically Ends Five Years.
State of War.
Two ceremonies At Paris Between
Allies and Germany Reestab-.
fishes Peace.

Paris.-The ceremony, which def
nitely re-establishes state Of peace
between the Allies and Germany, put
ting an end to the armistice, were d.
vided into two parts.
The representatives of the five pow
ers met first in the Office of the minis
ter of foreign affairs. Baron Kurt Won
Lersner, head of the German peace
delegation, and Herr Won Simson were
invited to sign in Germany's name the
protocol Of November /. They re-
ceived from . the hands of Premier
Clemenceau a letter binding the AL
lies to reduce the amount Of material
demanded for destruction Of German
war vessels at Scapa Flow.
The second part of the ceremony
followed Immediately in the Clock
hall. The 13 powers which have rati-
fed the Treaty Of Versailles were rep.
resented here by one delegate each.
The ratification exchange ceremony
will be followed by the immediate re-
sumption Of diplomatic relations be-
tween the Allies and Germany. It is
considered possible that Baron Won
Lersner will be designated Germans
charge d'affairs here. M. De Marcilly
will leave at once for Berlin to act as
French charge d'affairs there.

PROTEST AGAINST LAW
Workers Council Demanded by Great
PROFESSIONS Of Socialists Which
Turn Into Riotous Demonstra-
tions-Mahy Are Wounded.

Berlin.-Many persons were killed
or wounded in Berlin when troops
fired upon or hayoneted demonstra-
tors who tried TO rush the Reichstag
entrances, in protest against the ex-
ploitation law.
Ten dead had been brought into the
court of the Reichstag building when
the national assembly adjourned, &C.
,cording to an announcement made by
President Fehrenbach.
Crowds paraded the streets, follow
ing an appeal from Die Freiheit, radi-
cal Socialist organ, for workmen to
demonstrate in protest against the
law.
Many Factories Close.
Big professions passed along the
streets converging into the Koenigs
platz. Numerous factories were
obliged to close.
The demonstrators bore flags in
scribed 1--WE demand an unrestricted
workers, council bill"
Numerous speeches were delivered
from the steps of the Reichstag sharp
ly protesting against the present bill.
The street car service was partly
suspended, the men being on strike.
The public security police restricted
themselves to guarding the Reichstag.
The police finally restored order be-
fore the Reichstag building.
The so-called exploitation law is an
outgrowth of resolutions passed by
Social Democrats, at numerous meet
ings last September indorsing a sys-
tenn of workers and economic councils
as the first step toward specialization.
The speakers at the September meet
ings strongly condemned the Soviest
system. Attempts were m"de at the
time to disturb the meeting, but there
were no serious disorders.
Recently the government introduced
a bill in the Reichstag which would
place workmen's councils under gov
eminent control, and the present DEM
onstrations apparently were a result
of this measure.

"Winter Cholera" Causes Four Deaths
Out Of Many Cases.
Kansas City, Mo.-Health officers of
communities of the Southwest, where
a mysterious intestinal malady has
caused the illness of hundreds of per-
osns, apparently made little Roadway
in their efforts to identify the ailment.
At several places, however, physicians
put forward the term winter cholera"
as being the most appropriate.
Kansas City, Atchison and Pitts
burgh, Kan, were new places that re-
ported the disease. Physicians said
many persons, especially children, had
been ill here.
At Topeka reports stated that the
number of cases is estimated at. 1000.
Officials pointed to the fact that al
though so many persons had been i'll,
only four deaths are said to have &C.
