"OVER THE HILL"
WONDER PICTURE
SUPER-PRODUCTION COMING TO
LIBERTY THEATRE BREAKS
RECORDS EVERYWHERE

The William Fox special photo
production "Over the Hill," which is
heralded as one of the most fascinat-
ing film dramas ever released, will
be shown at the Liberty Theatre on
New Years Day, matinee P. M.
Monday.
The success of cover the Hill, "
during years run in New York,
prior to its release to the country
at large, reveals a significant psychic
logical angle of the showmanship of
its producer, William Fox. For Mr..
Fox, with the unerring instinct of a
good Snowman, in the case of this
picture reached back into the dim
and misty past and brought forth
story that is exceedingly timely
in its message, and appeals to every
known type and grade of theatre
goers.
There is so much laugher, whole
some sentiment and genuine amuse-
ment value in cover the Hip that
it stands out as embodying all that
is finest and most attractive in theat-
.rical entertainment.
The film story was made from Will
Carleton's Farm Ballads" by Paul
H. Sloane, and : directed with
superb skill by H Millarde. The
part of Ma Benz the principal
character, is play by Mary Carr,
who has made of masterpiece of
dramatic art.

POPLAR ORDERED TO
PAY COURT EXPENSE

Wolf Point scored another victory
in the county seat argument last
week when the supreme court at
Helena ordered that the cost of fore
ing the canvassing board to do its
duty and count the ballots from the
three precincts they had thrown out,
should be paid by Poplar and Wolf
Point is to be reimbursed for all ex-
nenses on this account. In reporting
the incident the Montana-Record
Herald said:
"The supreme court on Thursday
morning granted the motion of re-
representatives. of Wolf Point who had
asked that they be reimbursed for
expenses incurred when they applied
to the high court for writ of man
date to compel the county canvasslng
board at Poplar to count the vote
in the recent county seat contest IN
Roosevelt county in three precincts
that had been thrown out by the
board.
The high court ordered the board
to count those votes and Wolf Point
filed an account for expense totallng
e76h20, the whole claim being al
'owed by the court, save an item of
$S44O for mileage for R. ]. Moore,
the relator, but how the claim is to
be paid. and where, was not stated
Poplar objected to the allowance
of the claim on the theory that Wolf
Point was not entitled TO recompense
for expenses incurred. The claim was
for items for fees, mileage and per
diem of witnesses.

HENRY FORD WORTH
MOST MILLIONS NOW
MICHIGAN FARMER BOY HAS
GREATER FORTUNE THAN
JOHN D.

Wall Street, the money mart of
the world, has doffed its hat to Henry
Ford and admits that he is now the
richest man in the world.
The farmer boy of Dearborn, Mich,
but now the worlds greatest auto
mobile builder, is credited with $780,
100000 cash on hand and an estimat-
ed income, which for 1922 will total
S125, 100000 before taxes are de-
Quoted or S11O,O0O,000 clear.
With earnings which average about
800 a car, Henry Ford's company
could be capitalized at $2,0O0,000-
900 and pay per cent on the money.
Perhaps the most iteresting thing
about the Ford fortune, to the own
ers of his now famous car, IS the I'M
portance of the replacement part
sales. Wall Street says profit of
100000 is made from this source
to keep the millions of cars now on
the roads in running condition.
Ford's taxes in 1921 were $50, 900
900. This year, with the excess pro-
Mt tax aDOHSned, ne VIII pay ohiy
of his $25, 100000 in
come
Wall Street shakes a sad head when
such news is passed out for consump-
ton and admits that the former
Michigan boy has won his own game
and is a Wall Street unto himself.
Wall Street itself pays Ford ST.
9OG,c0O annually ii interest at 4 per
cent on his millions which flow
through there on loans.

POPLAR INDEPENDENT
MISQUOTES MARSHALL

In an interview today c. L. Mar
shall denied that he ever made
the statement published in the
Roosevelt County Independent, that
the county seat ought to be at Poplar
because of its geographical location.
Neither did he say that The Herald's
bid on the county printing contract
was the lowest. 1t is evident that
the Poplar editor intentionally or
Otherwise misquoted Mr. Marshall in
an attempt to make big story for
his paper.

NOTHING STARTLING
COUNTY SEAT FIGHT
POPLAR STRUGGLING TO MAKE
NG-EVIDENCE STILL
BEING TAKEN

The hearing before Judge Green,
to determine if the temporary order
issued by Judge Conner, restraining
the officials of Roosevelt county from
moving their offices to the permanent
county seat at Wolf Point, has drag
ged itself through four tedious days
and is still in progress today. The
end is not in sight and none connect
ed with the case will hazard a guess
as to when lis tail will heave into
view. Court reconvcned, after the
Christmas recess. at , 80 p. m. Wed
nesday
The Poplar side is still at it trying
to rake together enough stuff of one
kind or another to be noticeable. Mr..
Bangs is banging away unraveling
the endless length of Startling
events at precincts "a, 25 and 81. The
gallant challangers' brigade from
Poplar, who faced the dangers of
warm stoves and busy women judges,
to protect the sacredness of the bal
lot, gave the North Dakota attorney
able assistance, but also frequently
contributed to the cause defended by
Attorney Hurd. For instance, WIT
ness named Dilger, who made about
the best impression Of any the plain
tiff had put on the stand, testified,
in cross examination, that he watched
the reading and counting OF the
county seat ballots in precincts 23
and 25 and that they were counted
exactly as read. This bit of evidence
was a cruel blow to one of the nu-
merous allegations of the complaint.
The details of small matters that
happened at precincts % and "a were
threshed over yesterday and for the
first time the Bainville precincts were
touched upon. Nine witnesses were
put upon the stand in the course OF
the afternoon but none of large
number subpoeanaed from Wolf Point
Tuesday, to appear Wednesday, were
called, so must be on hand again to-
day.
Another argument over law points
referingto admissability Of certain
line of evidence was won by Hurd
who gained the courts ruling.
Unless the verbatim testimony OF
the witnesses is given there is not
much to describe about the hearing
until it is finished. 1t is hard to see
lust what the plaintiffs side IS until
they rest their case, as Mr.. Bangs
Jumps from one thing to another and
then back again, often appearing TO
be at a loss just what to do next.
The defense has great number
of witnesses to examine and while 1t
is certain the case will progress much |
more rapidly after the plaintiff has
finished. it is impossible to say II /
the case will be finished this week OF
this year
LATER
At three O'Clock this afternoon At
torney Bangs announced that the
nlaintiff would rest and Attorney
Hurd at once began the examination
of witnesses for the Wolf Point side
of the argument. J. H. Coffey was
the first witness called and his tes-
timony occupied most of the remain
ing time. A night session of court
will be held tonight and there IS
possibility that decision will be ar

These securities in small amounts,

of 5 per cent. interest year year. This
is done by allowing a rate of Az per

SIG, lv4,0O0 at the end fthe first
quarter of the year, Of 100000 more

There are several reasons for the
four-fold Increase in the popular mar

and the consequent enhanced purchas-
