Denhan Claims Lien
Against His Property
by u. S. Is Illegal

Postponement of the sale Of prop
erty belonging to John A. Denham by
government officials has brought out
the fact that Mr.. Denham is opposing
the sale on the grounds that the gov
ernment holds lien on his property
for assessed taxes which he considers
Illegal.
The property was seized by internal
revenue agents as payment for an as
sessed license tax of $1,000 which Mr..
Denham failed to pay. and for $500
penalties attached The property was
seized at the instigation of Gene Van
Vert. state officer. who claimed to
have purchased two bottles of beer
containing more than the allowed al
coholic content in an estabilshmet
owned by Mr.. Denham,
Mr.. Denham was proprietor of the
Old Home saloon and he closed its
doors when the state went dry and To-
Gated OH a ranch. Later the place was
opened by a partner of Mr.. Denham' S
and converted into a soft drink estab-
lshment. Mr.. Van Vert alleged that
he purchased two bottles of beer that
were rated as containing intoxicating
liquor. Mr.. Denham was arrested. but
the case was thrown out OF district
court and dismissed by the United
States commissioner. Five cases OF
beer were found in the basement

WHEELER Sees
1922 VICTORY
FOR DEMOCRATS
Candidate for Governor in 1920
Refuses to Say Whether He
Will Run for Senate.

A belief that the democratic party
will place a winning senatorial and
congressional ticket in the field this
fall was expressed by Burton *.
Wheeler. democratic candidate for gov
ernor in 1920. on his arrival in Great
Falls Saturday night from Plentywood:
Mr.. Wheeler said the comment he had
heard during his travels over all parts
of the state had convinced him the
democratic ticket would be successful.
If the democratic party does not
suffer from factional strife, Mr..
Wheeler asserted. there is no question
but what it's candidates will be elected.
Mr.. Wheeler said he saw rfo possibility
Of riffs in the ranks of the party.
Silent on Candidacy
+ When asked as to whether he would
be candidate in the primaries for
the democratic nomination OF United
States senator, Mr.. Wheeler said he
had reached no decision. He said many
of his friends had asked him to make
the race.
Mr.. Wheeler recently returned from
a visit to New York, Washington. d. c..
and other eastern cities. He asserted
that sentiment in the east was rapidly
turning in favor of former President
Wilson and that the people were be-
ginning to realize more each day that
he was one of the biggest men who
ever ruled the White House. The dis
playing of Woodrow Wilson's picture
in a theater in New York city brings
forth more applause than the showing
of one of President Harding. he said.
On Plentywood Case
In Sheridan county. Mr.. Wheeler
has been engaged in investiga ting
charges of bribery that have been pre-
ferred against member of the board
Of commissioners and former mem
Der. The bribery charges, Mr.. Wheeler
said. were in connection with county
seed contracts made in 1920. Mr..
Wheeler has been employed as special
counsel by Sheridan county to conduct
the prosecution Of the men.
The bribery cases and the one
against c. j. Beiseker. cashier of the
defunct Sheridan County State bank,
who is charged with making false
entries in his books and accepting de-
posits after he knew that the bank was
insolvent. will be tried in Malta. March

New York, March 12.--If it isn't
one thing it is likely to be another,
and this week it is an Egyptian prince
with an American welterweight as his
secretary. Proving once more that o.
Henry didn't tell the half of it.
The town has had its share of titled
personages from Europe and the
Orient and was just settling quietly
TO "reminiscences about them when
Prince Mohamed Ali Ibraham strolled
into the Biltmore. He is the nephew
of the present sultan and the cousin
of the former khedive of Egypt and is
a slim and conspicuously well dressed
young man on his way to Los Angeles
with a racing car. Ordinarily cousin
of the khedive and little brother to
the pyramids would. occupy the exact
center of any limelight which happened
to be turned on when he arrived. But
the glory of the prince was half
eclipscd by the stocky, checked
trousered. who announced himself as
Blink NlcCloskey, the Philadelphia
welterweight.
Won Job BY Knockout
According to this newest and de-
cidedly most fascinating Arabian
Nights tale. McCloskey was weEer-
weighting around Thebes-yes the
Thebes somewhere on the Nile
when Prince Mohamed Ais former
secretary announced himself the
champion heavyweight of Egypt and
dared the world 10 deny it.
Blink, from Philadelphia. argued the
matter. with the heavyweight He
used only two arguments. one to the
left jaw and swift retort to the mid
riff but they were SO forceful that the
ptolemy Kid was completely floored.

rotary" explained the prince. ''any
man who could knock out the heavy
weight Then he pointed to Blink
the victor and made sound like
VOLTA or whatever they say in
Thebes when they mean 'lookit.'
Of course the prince has been an
Egyptian prince for % years and
knows his job Presumably he also
knows what kind of secretary he
needs. But the talents required for
q secrctarial position out in Thehes
these days leads one to suppose that
Egypt still clings to her old time

American lakes and rivers.
The general membership to the cl,ll
