Polish victory and the treaty Of
Riga gave Poland her frontiers and

port gotten out by the Montana Lum-
Der Manufacturers association. The
shipments exceeded the cut over g.

while they were only 9,914,645 feet
OF S77 cars In April, 1921.
OF the shipments made in April
this year, Montana leads with 1856

The posse, headed by State Prohi-
bition Commissioner Carl Jackson,
left Cheyenne, famous old frontier

sealed orders, not wen the train

They travelled in squads, each squad

suspected Joints" The raiders scat

In 10 minutes the first prisoners
were being brought back to the car

Samples of the seized liquors were
given to Stribling. AS quickly as he
decided they were illegal the pris-
