Things stood thus when Sum DUN

Not satisfied to spend the honey

French Pota sh.

With one exception all potash mines
In AlSace We're owned and operated by
German companies before the war.
Until the AlSatian mines passed under
French control the German govern
ment regulated the sale Of potash from
them and from the German mines In
order to prevent OverproductiOn and
to keep prices mt a uniform level. The
total quantity TO be sold during the
year was fixed, as we'll as the amount
TO be supplied by each company.
Prices were established for the various
grades. During the year 1913 the
German and Alsatinn mines produced
100000 tons of crude potash, six
per cent Of this amount. or approx
matcly COG 900 tons. being the quota
from the AlSatiaa mines. When the
Germans left. some Of the mines were
found to be in n flooded state and
considerable pumping and repairs
We're necessary. Since the armiStice
the production has been increased by
more than 800 per cent.

THREE ARE SENTENCED.

The work of the federal court
at Moscow was concluded Thurs
day of last week when Judge F.
S. Dietrich pronounced sentence
upon three defendants who had
entered pleas of guilty. The
court will remain open tomorrow
but the work of the term is now
cleared and it is not expected
any further business will be
transacted.
Those sentenced and the sent
ences imposed are as follows:
Blair Hoar, former receiver of
the U. S. land office at Lewiston
and who entered plea of guilty
to the charge of embezzlement
by failure to make daily deposits
of the funds received as requir-
ed by law, was sentenced to
serve 18 months at McNeiPs
Island and to pay a fine amount
ing to $2,666.67.
AL Arthur, of Lewiston, who
pleaded guilty to the charge OF
operating an illicit still, was
sentenced to serve 80 days in the
county jail at Lewiston.
Seward T. Pickett, who enter
ed a plea of guilty to the charge
of operating an illicit still in Ida
no county, was sentenced tC
serve two months in the county
Jail at Grangeville.
Arthurs and Pickett have
been in Jail for several months
and this was considered in i'm
posing sentences.

ENGINE BREAKS AXLE.

Engine No. 1740, which was
attached to the passenger train
on it's regular trip to Lewiston
broke an axle of one of its drlv-
ing wheels Thursday morning
near the Farmers Union Ware
house and the train was delayed
here for two hours, until help
came from Grangeville where
the freight crew was stationed.
The engine was pulled back on a
side track and the regular trip
continued to Lewiston, with the
freight engine. The accident
was a very fortunate one, for
should the break have occurred
on the Culdesac hill, the outcome
might have been a very serious
one. The axle was 8 inches in
diameter, and broke just as if
it had been cut off.

KETCHEL EASY WINNER.

Young Ketchell gained a de-
cisive victory over Sailor"
Charley Lawson Saturday night
at Nezperce when Lawson, after
taking knockdowns in two
rounds was unable to respond in
the fourth round. The bout
was scheduled for ten rounds
and was held under the auspices
of the local Legion post.
The men fought from the
moment they shook hands in the
first round. Each pressed in
and the crowd classed the round
even.
In the second, Ketchell set the
pace with furious assaults scoring
two knockdowns and the gong
saved the sailor.
Lawson came back in the third
with gameness but only to take
severe punishment and the gong
saved him again.
His condition was such he
could not come back in the four
tn and the contest was awarded
TO Ketchell.
A large crowd witnessed the
contest and the receipts are est
mated at $1,000. The atten-
dance came from all sections OF
the prairie region.
Young" Ketchell is the well
terweight who proved a surprise
at Lewiston a few weeks ago
when he defeated Heck st. John
with ease. He proves himself
to be a ring general and hard
hitter who can also take punish
ment. Fight fans will now be
looking for a weller who may be
able to take his measure.
1t is reported that in the
neighborhood of $4,000 changed
hands on this bout Nezperce fans
generally backing Ketchel, while
Lewiston fans supported Law
son.

PLANS TRIP TO ARGENTINA

Albert Nordict of Los Molinos,
Calf, formerly a resident of the
Keuterville section, who has
been visiting friends around
here the past week, expects to
leave some time next week for
Los Molinos from where he will
begin his trip to Argentina,
South America. Mr.. Nordick
expects to sojourn there about a
year and if opportunities there
for agriculture and stock raising
are as abundant as claimed to be,
he may locate there. A study
of trip of this kind recalls some
of our lessons in geography of
school days as for instance your
shadow there will point south
instead of north as here. Also
the farther south you go the
colder it gets and that July and
August are their coolest winter
months. The trip will require
40 days travel ON boats from San
Francisco, a trip through the
Panama Canal and in all about
1000 miles will be covered going
this route and the fare over and
return for first class passage
amounts to nearly a 100000

this fall are exceptionally bright
at this time.
Do you know that all reports
seems to agree that the Amerl-
can with real money to spend Is
popular in almost any section OF
Europe.
Do you know that carrots are
declared to be a most healthful
food, likewise spinnage, but that
does not make either two popu-
lar with some people.
Do you know that there are
some people who insist on hav-
ing the entire road when driving
an automobile. Evidently they
think they are the most import
ant people in the world.
Do you know that a great
many people in Cottonwood were
surprised when they heard that
the pavement bonds would sell
for GOO on the dollar.
Do you know that there is
something in feeling as young as
YOU are but there is nothing IN
feeling as rich as you are.
Do you know why it is that
some people in every town
always insist on knocking their
home town. If they do not like
the town why don't they move
on?

BERNARD MOYNAGH DEAD.

The sad news was received
here Saturday by Mrs. George
Rustemeyer of the death of her
brother, Bernard Moynagh, of
Oregon City, Ore, and the lady
left Sunday morning for that
place to attend the funeral.
The deceased was the young
est child of the family and came
to Cottonwood with his parents
from South Dakota when a small
child. The family later settled
on a homestead in the Green
creek section where they resided
until few years ago. Bernard
grew to manhood in this county
and attended school in Cotton
wood for a couple of terms, being
a bright student and highly
esteemed by teachers and school
mates alike. After removing
to Oregon he contracted the flu
about year ago, which brought
on lung trouble and caused his
death. He was "a years of age,
the last of four boys, and was
laid to rest Monday in the Cath
olic cemetery at Oregon City by
the side of his brother, Frank,
who died in Montana on Decem-
Der 31st, 1919.
The bereaved relatives have
the sympathy of many friends
here i'm their hour of sorrow.

ROAD IMPROVEMENT.

p. p. Oehler, highway engi-
neer of Lewiston, and his sur
veying crew arrived in Nezperce
Tuesday and they are now at
work surveying the several bad
sections Of road in this commun-
ity which the Prairie Highway
board has ordered macadamized.
These pieces of road are the
Harding" hill at the northwest
entrance of town, the Miller
hill a half mile northeast of
town, and the "Hines" hill a half
mile out on the Nezperce-C Craig
mont road.
Another highway improve
ment which they will survey is
the detom around the Cook
hill. seven miles north of this
place. This hill has been an
impeachment to traffic since the
opening of the reservation, and
it is now planned to follow the
draw that skirts it on the west
and therby secure a very easy
grade in that section of road,
This draw passed through the
ranch owned by c. w. Buckley,
of this city, and he agrees to re-
linguish the right-of-way for the
new road at a minimum cost to
the distl'ict.-Nezperce Herald.
