|V0RLD'S PROBLEMS
/ SOON TO BE- SOLVED
|. B. S. A. Says Millions Will Never
Die-Lecture at Plentyw00d and
Outlook, September 25th.

Word has come to us that the In
ternational Bible Students Associa-
/ ton has arranged for public meetings
| to be held in nearly every city, coun-
| ty and province in the United States
and Canada, on Sunday, September
25th, announcing that the worldwide
conditions Of unrest which are being
! felt by everyone in every country,
are soon to end, for all time.
They claim that release from the
present unhappy state Of affairs will
not be accomplished through existing
financial, political or economic reform
movements, nor through the intelli-
gence Of the people, but by Divine full
hllment of the prophecies contained
in the Bible. These prophecies, they
state. show that the old order of
things has already passed away, and
that the Golden Age of brotherly love
is about to be ushered in. In the
meanwhile, the work of removing the
present unjust systems of society
Will culminate soon in time of
Trouble such as the world has never
seen.
In the face Of the present untold
suffering and hardships Of the peo-
pie, the Bible Students declare that
Ine duty of every consecrated Chris
nan Is two-fold: q. To declare
uoas judgment against all unjust
systems and governments, religious
and political, and to announce their
aller destruction; (2). To declare
We good tidings of great joy to all
people, that millions now living will
s, survive the present time of trouble

nse and to receive the dead back to

ed Business, Especially the Busi-
ness Pertaining to the Settlement
of the Sheridan County State Bank
Affair.
The Board of County Commission
ers will meet in Special Session next
Tuesday, September Goth, when they
will take up unpaid bills, and attend
To anv unfinished business especially
the affairs of the Sheridan County
State Bank.
The Special Session was called by
Jud Matkins and Jens Ibsen and was
signed by those commissioners and
posted, Wednesday, September 14th.
It is expected the Chairman OF the
Board of County Commissions, 4. Z.
TYLER, will be back from the east by
that time, Mr.. Tyler having taken ad-
vantage Of the occasion of he's being
so near to his old home in Wisconsin
to go over to spend few days VIII
cid friends and relatives.
ItI appears that Mr.. Tyler will have
to be back by Tuesday if the special
meeting is to be held as Commission
er Matkins is IN such physical con-
dition that he will probably not be
able to attend.

CONTEMPT CASES
Will BE TRIED
SEPT. 2S and g

4 Because of the fact that the law
firm of Wheeler & Baldwin were un-
able to be in Plentywood either on
September 18th or 10th, which was
the date set for trial Of Editor Tay-
lor for contempt and the 17th, the
day set for the trial of Editor Bow
ler Of the Scobey Sentinel, because
of the fact that Mr.. Wheeler was in
Minneapolis on business for Sheridan
county and was called east from there
by the serious illness of his father
and because Mr.. Baldwin had cases
"a the Supreme Court on the same
day and were therefore unable to be
IN Plentywood on those dates, Editor
TAYLOR appeared before Judge Conner
on Tuesday afternoon and asked for
another continuance until the latter
part of the month, and Judge Conner
took the matter up with Judge Rose
Of Havre and the trial date was set
for September 28th for Editor lay
lor and September 29th for Editor
Bowler. at which time no doubt the
cases will go to trial.

Fatty Arbuckle Indicted
For the Murder ot Actress
WAS SPITTOON CLEANER
AT ONE TIME

Fatty" Arbuckle, movie actor, one
of the famous screen comedians, who
rose to fame from the job of spittoon
cleaner in a San Francisco saloon,
was indicated by Grand Jury in
San Francisco, Tuesday, September
18th, on charge of manslaughter in
connection with the death of Miss
Virginia Rape, who died several
days ago at a hospital in San Fran
cisco as the result of an assault and
rape perpetrated upon her by Fatty
in his palatious apartments at the
Hotel St. Francis after "hooch"
party which he had given to num-
Der of his friends and to which he
had invited Miss Rape, the most
beautiful actress in Moviedom.
It is reported that Arbuckle, who
is a huge man, weighing over 30
pounds, had been infatuated with
Miss Rappe for some time, but his
attention had not been welcome. Up
on hearing that she was in San Fran-
cisco from Los Ageles he called her
to his apartments on business en-
gagement, and when she arrived in
company with another lady friend,
she found FATTY" carousing with a
number of male friends He treated
the ladies to couple Of drinks Of
gin, after which he grabbed Miss
Rappe and bore her to his room as a
cave man of old, from which room
screams were soon heard after the
muffled noise Of struggle.
Miss Rappe was taken to hospiz
tai, where after several days Of
agony she died.
Arbuckle pictures have been taken
off from the screens in many movie
houses throughout the nation.
Fatty" Arbuckle draws salary
like a fabulous Indian Prince man
who once cleaned spittoons in a San
Francisco bar room-and in spite OF
his huge salary, his poor step moth
er takes in washing to support two
blind half sisters and she has never
received penny from her step son..
who lives like merchant prince.
The police investigation was. sen
sational and has furnished material
to fill the Hearst papers from ''kiver
to kiver," with pictures and salacious
stories.
The trial will be called Immediately
and the evidence is expected to be
very "rare and racy.'

Threshing in Montana has been
abolished for the time being by "a
fortnight of wet weather, in fact, the
longest spell Of precipitation in Mon
tana since 1912.
A week ago last Tuesday it conn
menced to rain as predicted by Prof.
Petite and has continued with short
interruptions ever since and the Pro-
fessor now says it will continue until
after the goth.
Last Friday, fourteen inches of
snow was reported at Moosejaw. Cam
ada, and about six inches fell In the
Rocky Mountains, and it showed all
of the way from Beach, N. Dr.. to
Billings, this state.
Heavy rains also fell in the south
west which was accompanied by
floods in which many people lost
their lives.
During the. wet spell all threshing
has ceased and even grain hauling
has been stopped owing to the con-.
ditions of the roads.
During this rainy period the towns
and villages have been crowded with
workmen awaiting for the weather
to clear and threshing to proceed.
The hotels at Plentywoed have been
jammed and Sheriff Collins threw
open the county Jail for the accommo-
dations of those who could not find
beds elsewhere as also did Marshall
Pierce, who played host to a crowd
of unfortunate fellows who could not
procure beds elsewhere, throwing 0p-
en- both the Jail and the city hall for
%Io v,rnfocf;nn of those Iuhn 1ooor1ad If
While a majority of those enter
tanned and staying about town were
members of the /. w. W., yet there
has been no trouble with them in
Sheridan county, whatever, every
thing being peaceful, which indicates
that people can get along with the
wobblies who treat them as men
should be treated.

FIRST NATL BANK
OF HAVRE FAILS
One of the Largest and Supposed
ly Strongest National Reserve
Banks in the North Half Of
State Goes Over Divide, Sat-
urday.

The rumors were current in
Plentywood last Saturday, Sep
tember 9th, that the First Ma
tional Bank Of Havre, Federal
Reserve institution, went to the
bad that day, its doors being
closed by the United States
Banking Department. The failed
bank was one of the largest in
stitutions III the north half Of
Montana and the second hank
in Hayre. to go under the sod as
a result of the violent and ruin
Gus deflation ordered and brought
about by the United States Fed
eral Reserve Bank.
This gigantic bank failure was
not reported in the Montana
press for reasons best known to
themselves, as it seems that these
papers have an agreement among
themselves not to report bank
failures in this state. e

Railroad Loan Storm Center
f The $500, ,OOO, 900 loan to the rail-
roads, which passed the House just
before the recess, promises to be the
storm center in the Senate which Con-
gress reconvenes. That Administra-
| ton has determined that this bill shall
be passed at once, and a'ittle group
of Republican progressives headed by
LaF Toilette, Norris, Ladd and others
are equally determined to block it if
possible.
The probabilities are the bill will
| pass. All of the great power of the
| President will be used to whip Re-
| publicans into line, and, although the
Democrats as a party are opposed to
the measure, if It comes to a show
| down a number of reactionary Demo
Gratis will join the standpat Republi-
cans.
The Administration is boosting the
bill on the theory that the half bill
lion dollar loan is needed to get the
country "back to normally. They
decare the money will be used to en-
ploy idle men and start the wheels OF
industry revolving. Opponents OF the
bill assert the railroad n1agnates will
use the half billion dollars to pay de-
ferred dividends instead of putting
more men to work. Experts say the
trouble with the railroads is that they
are run by stock jobbers and bankers
instead Of railroad men. They say
there is no hope of improvements SO
Hong as the government keeps pour
! ing money into their Golfers to be
spent without control.
Smoot Wants Sales Tax
Senator Smoot is still advocating a
sales tax and evidently is getting sup
port from administration circles POST
master Will Hays in his Labor day
speech at Cleveland predicted that
''soon we shall be able to change our
system of taxation SO as to raise less
/ of our revenue through bufdensome
/! income taxes and more Of 1t through
some other form of direct tax on the
production or consumption OF goods.
There is no doubt that Hays spoke
| officially for the Administration and
this clearly indicates purpose 70
shift still further the burden OF after
! war-taxation from the wealthy 20 the
poor. The producing masses already
pay a disproportionately large share
Of our taxes and a sales tax would
enormously increase this load.
