MOVIE MAN FORCED TO MOVE
TO THEATRE FOR VAUDEVILLE

Too much rain forced the first
abandonment of the airdome last
night and because of threatening
weather the show tonight and to-
morrow night is to be in the Ameri-
can theatre building, Manager
Harry Oastler announced today.
Only one projecting machine was
moved back to the theatre today,
necessitating delay between reels,
but Oastler believes that his patrons
would rather have this than to take
a chance on the weather. If it
clears up in the next day or so the
airdome will again be used for the
balance of the summer.
A special added attraction on the
theatre program tonight and tomor-
row night will be Billy Murray, who
sings Irish ballads and has a mono
logue that is said to be good. The
vaudevillian has completed three
day engagement at the Majestic in
Reno and is highly praised by the
management of that show house.

EXTRAl ALL ABOUT HOW
TO RUN WITHOUT GASOLINE

Yesterday while making one of
his official calls to the sheriff's Of
flee in this city, Reporter Black, of
the Humboldt Star force, ran out
of gas upon his arrival there, he
being in the roadster belonging to
r. C. Stitser, one of the publishers,
of the Star, and was hard put to
know how to get the vehicle back
to its starting point. Rumor has
it that Black acted upon sugges-
tion that he put copy of a certain
Democratic newspaper in the gas
tank an dsucceeded in reaching his
office within few minutes on the
gas contained therein. Of course
this is only rumor and we have no
proof that this was the case.

RANCHERS WITH CUT HAY
FEAR DAMAGE BY RAIN

Work in the hayfields in this
vicinity and on the new hotel build
ing, as well as other places, was
suspended this forenoon on account
of the heavy rain which started at
an early hour this morning and
continued up to the, middle of the
day. The storm has lasted for
three days now, visiting the country
at intermittent intervals, and al
though greatly appreciated by all
for while, considerable consterna-
tion is being felt by ranchers who
have hay down and who are afraid
of losing all of it unless old "sol'
shows his face pretty soon.
One rancher this morning stated
that he has had approximately
sixty tons of alfalfa down for
several days, and that unless a
change in weather shows today he
has no hope of saving it. If the
sun should come out now, however,
he states, the hay would quickly
dry and probably would not be
hurt. 1t is reported that a large
quantity of hay is down in various
sections of this county, and all
ranchers will suffer more or less of
loss unless the hay is dried soon.
To Offset the loss, however, is the
fact that the rain has ben sufficient
to insure the growth of an abun-
dance of green feed for grazing
stock for some time.

RABlD DOG NECESSITATES
PASTEUR TREATMENT

A telegram received by A. c..
Fishburn last night from the state
laboratory at Reno confirms his be-
lief that his dog killed last Sunday
upon his request, was suffering
from rabies. The telegram gave
positive proof that such was the
case. In working with the dog, the
owner was slightly bruised when
the dog snapped at him and the
skin of his wrist was possibly
slightly broken. AS precautionary
measure Mr.. Fishburn will undergo
a series of innoculations, known as
the Pasteur treatment, to prevent
hydriophobia, "a morbid dread of
water"

WASHINGTON TIED

Mention of Wool Schedule Provokes
Scrap as Men Struggle With
Heat and Tariff Schedule
at National Capital

WASHINGTON, D. c. July 29.-
Washington this week settled down
into dead gray monotony. To be
sure, the Senate drones along, help
less and all but inert in the grasp
of political filibuster. People
around the Capitol are sick of the
words "wool schedule" The House,
weeks ahead of the game, is likely
to take another recess August Is.
Congress now faces the probability
of another extra session next sum-
mer. Even the great strikes have
lost their power to charm news
paper readers or to incite CONVEX
sationalists. San Francisco news
papers, second-class mail matter
continue to arrive on time. Your
correspondent next-door neighbor
apprehensive for a time, this week
put in his winter supply of coal at
five cents the ton less than he paid
last year.

BLAZE STARTED BY
CIGARETTE EXTINCUISHED

What might have been a serious
fire was averted last evening when
smoke was discovered coming from
under the sidewalk in front of
Stephensons Drug store and the
small blaze extinguished. 1t is sup
posed that someone had thrown a
cigarette butt through the grating
in the walk at that place and that
the blaze was started by the igni-
tion of dry leaves and paper. That
the discovery was made before seri-
Gus damage was done is considered
fortunate.

PLANS PERFECTED FOR
LEGION PICNIC SUNDAY

Final arrangements for the picnic
to be held by American Legion
members in Thomas Canyon next
Sunday were made by Legion mem
bers last. night and everything is
now in readiness for an early start
for that place. Besides Legion
members, all war veterans are in
vited to attend and means of trans
portation and eats have been pro-
vided for all.
after tomorrow was to have been
held up in publication to an hour
little later than usual to give the
people the very latest information
at the close of the time when can
didates can announce themselves for
office, as it looked as though some
spectacular surprises would be
sprung about that time. But now
County Clerk Davey has spoiled all
that by announcing that he will ac-
cept nominating petitions and GER
tificates until the hour of midnight
Saturday-the last minute allowed
by law for candidates to make their
desire known and thus assure that
their names will appear on the
ballots.
Saturday is the last day voters
now registered may change their
party affiliations, though if they
are not yet registered they may
wait until August 15 and still be
privileged to vote iat the primaries.
This little story may be a trifle
frank to suit the political ideas OF
certain politicians, and it may be
that the editor of this sheet may be
the topic of considerable heated and
other conversation, but a little truth
now and then is relished by the
best of men, and it may be that the
voters will be taken on other little
trips to the inside portals of Hum
ooldt county politics before the elec-
ton is over, even if it does lead to
slight viciousness against the editor
Watch and see, that's all.

COUNTY POLITICS
GETTING RED HOT
Two More Party Desertions, by Bell
and Wilson, Provide Topic of
the Hour, and Indications
Point to Hot Campaign

Most anything can happen and
I'll not be surprised" seems to be
the attitude of most everybody con-
cerning the county political situa-
tion today, because it does appear
that the contests are becoming SO
involved it would take seer to
tell at this time what the final line
up is to be.
Most unusual in Humboldt county
politics are the reports, from very
well authenticated sources, that w.
j. Bell, present chairman of the
county board of commissioners, and
l.. G. Wilson, incumbent district
attorney, have deserted their Demo-
cratic party and will make the race
for reelection as independent can
didates. All of which has led to
the query:: What about the much
talked-about Democratic strength In
this county? Which query seems
mighty reasonable, too, right at
this stage of the game. When two
men of political calibre Of Bell
and Wilson see danger ahead in
their own party, perhaps there may
be some foundation for their be-
lief. 1t is very true that their
last-hour changes of mind have up
set some choice plans of certain
other political manipulators, but,
oh boy, what sign of weakness
If they smell the smoke now, what
will the fire be when election day
gets here?
Bell has a perfect right to be
afraid of the primaries, and so has
Wilson, but from different view
points. Wilson's action is taken
If you will take our word for it
to get away from the grand and
glorious double-cross frequently
handed by the local Democratic
machine, which Tom Powell and
Bill Springer can probably tell as
much about as any other two men.
But Bells fright arises from an
other source he's got the machine
behind HMM fact he is the ma
chine-but he fears the wrath of
certain class of voters that don't
particularly like certain leanings of
Mr.. Bell. Bell is supposed to COM
mand the vote of another class of
voters that has no politics but can
always be depended upon to vote
right" for business reasons. But
this class is not as strong now as
it was few years ago, prior to a
certain memorable election. If,
however, the other vote is split up
sufficiently, he possibly figures, the
minority might be able to elect
their candidate and he'd slip in. His
plan to build up a machine with
"victors' spoils" during the last
year and half, which was calcu-
lated to sweep everything before it,
apparently hasn't been as successful
as might have been hoped for.
Wilson, however, is gaining
strength hourly. Sensing the grand
double-cross of his former play
mates, he will. probably soon be
willing to announce that he will
refuse to pull any more chestnuts
out of the fire that is getting
warmer all the time-in other
words, why be made the goat for a
bunch that only wants to use you
anyhow? Why, at any rate, when
you get it in the neck whether you
do or don't? This may not be Mr..
Wilson's opinion, but it's ours, and
that's enough for the present pur-
pose. If Wilson does desert the old
water CD logged ship he'll win a
dry raft of votes and win hands
down.

STRIKE SITUATION
MAY BE INVOLVED.
Report Today That Maintenance of
Way Men May Strike Leads to
Opinion That Strike May
Be Long in Settlement

A newspaper press reports today
that the 100000 members of the
Maintenance of Way Employees Of
railroads may be expected to strike
within the next week has lead to
opinion in railway circles that the
fight may yet be long drawn out
and bitter. Such conclusion is made
more positive by the refusal of
railroad executives to accept the
plan of President Harding for set
tlement.
On the other hand, the opinion
has been expressed that the rail-
road executives are bluffing in their
refusal to grant seniority rights to
strikers and that they can be ex-
pected to recede from this position
within a week, thereby opening the
way to strike settlement.
Should the first opinion prove to
be the correct one-that the fight
is to the finish-there is the pos
sibility that President Harding may
take over the roads, to be operated
under government supervision pend
ing settlement of the strikes, thus
insuring transportation of mail and
necessities of life, under the prin-
cipal that the needs of thhe general
public must be- protected. Railroad
workers generally are said to favor
this move.
WASHINGTON. In rejecting
President Harding's proposal for
settlement of the railway shopmen's
strike as it was laid before them in
New York, the railway executives
have apprised the administration
that the door for further negotia-
tion still is open if it can be un-
dertaken on the basis of the men
who have remained at work, but not
otherwise.
Force within the administration
which have been working to find
some way to bring the men and the
roads together, were engaged in an
attempt to find some way to bring
the negotiations back to what the
railway executives understood was
to be its original basis. No de-
finite plan, however, developed dur
ing the day.
If attempts at reopening the ne
gotiations should fail some officials
in the confidence of the administra-
tion felt that its next step, if neces-
sary, would be to provide protection
or such employees as wished to
work.
| CHICAGO.-Chiefs of the strik-
ing rail employees voted to accept
President Harding's proposal for
ending the rail strike and appointed
a committee to draft the text of the
acceptance and forward it to the
President Immediately.
| The action of the union heads
was the only outstanding event in
the rail strike situation today.
President Harding was said by
secretary of Commerce Hoover to
be contemplating no action yester-
day concerning the strike and there
was no indication as to when or
how the next peace move might
arise.
