Hail Kills Stock

WHEATLAND. Wye. July - A
considerable section of the wheatland
flats was visited by a hail storm re-
markable for the great size of the
scattering stones that fell. Severe
damages were restricted to a small
area beginning at the Laramie river
in the vicinity of the Ferguson and
Romine & Martin ranches and ex-
fencing across the flats in a strip
about two miles wide. until Its force
abated west Of town.. The large stones
fell over a strip extending from one
mile east of town to about four miles
west and entirely across the flats
north and south. The stones ranged
as large as turkey eggs. a% ven
larger specimens were reported.
Weighing as much as six ounces.
Young calves. pigs and poultry were
killed, automobile tops were perfor-
ated and wind shields broken. windows
In many farm houses were broker IND
shlngle roofs, penetrated several places
by the huge chuks of ice.
AS the number of these stones were
limited to about one to the square
yard, the crop damages done were not
severe. save in the restricted area
swept by a deluge of smaller hal.
There was 10 hail in the eastern
and western sections of the Wheat
land farming district. and none in the
dry farming diatricts east of Wheat
land and Slater. Reports of hail dam

THE BRITISH
SEALS

"The Enquirer and News is per-
haps safe from suspicion of being
liberal" on the subject of prohi-
bition and its enforcement.
"This newspaper has been dry as
the Arizona climate for a good many
years past
yet, being dry, the Enquirer and
News can scarcely get the chang
of the plan for breaking the seals
on the liquor brought into port by
foreign vessels. Viewed from this
distance, and viewed, too, through
what may be a fog of ignorance
and misunderstanding, it looks as
though the action with respect to
the foreign ships and their sealed
up liquor supply represented the
straining at a gnat where a good
many camels are elsewhere being
swallowed.
THAT is to say, we seem to be
going quite a way out of the road
to find something to do for the en-
forcement of the prohibitory law,
while it probably is possible to find
a good deal to do in the regular line
of business without going off the
road at all.
"They still talk rather brashly
of how the liquor comes regularly
across the Canadian line, and there
is a good deal to say about the pros
perity of the Bookkeeping profession
in New York. Liquor which has
been formally sealed up and is to
remain scaled until it is transported
outside the zone of American au-
thority again would seem to be
reasonably well removed from the
possibility of doing any damage
within the meaning of the prohibi-
tory law-enough SO, at least, that
it might be let alone while energies
are directed toward the more OBJ
vious forms Of prsAibftsry vsela-
tion.-Battle Creek Inquirer and
News.

Gen. Gouraud, Lion of Argonne"

try.
The right arm of this great
French soldier is gone, he still limps
from a wound in his right foot. mud
he bears scars Of several other
wounds received in his many cam
paigns.
But he is still in the service of
his country.
Had Gen. Gouraud been n sol

a grievance and a reason to combine
against us. Lloyd George may urge
patience, but it will be a wonder if
there is no attempt at retaliation.
France, Italy, Great Britain and
Japan might say that no ship which
denies their nationals the right on
the high seas to drink beverages
legal at home shall be permitted
within their waters.
"Many ways of retaliation could
be planned and il American dry
laws given effect on the sea make
the United States an effective chal-
lenger IN the sea retaliation will be
undertaken. America hasn't got a
friend in the world. Too many
people owe it money which they are
trying or refusing to pay. 1t is

NADER

american customs officers broke
British seals and took liquor off the
Baltic and the Berengaria. Other
ships, British, French, Italian, etc,
are getting the same treatment. As
soon as a manifest is filed showing
that liquor has been brought into
American waters, in excess Of the
medical allowance, it is taken out.
There is a lot of trouble here
which the United States is imposing
on the ships of other nations and
some Of it may get loose. Lloyd
George urges the British to be pa
tient and to give America a fair
chance to work out the great ex-
pertinent. Possibly they will be,
but it has not been their habit to
take kindly to interference with
their shipping.
1--WE are creating q situation
which will prevent ships of other
nations from having freedom in
their own legal customs and even
from obeying their rationing laws
on the high seas We are giving
the British, japanese, French, Ital-
ians and other nations a common
cause against us and a common
reason to dislike US more than they
already do.
america fairly could assert that
liquor is not to be served in its ports.
Lloyd George reminds the British
that their liquor carrying ships have
been bootlegg.ng in American ports.
They have and the United States
has the right. to protest and to,stop
it. The British and French engage
in a great rum running trade which
they know violates our law. We
have a right to protest there that
it is unfriendly. But we have
gone to the extreme of saying that
ships shall be dry out at sea because
they have come into our waters.
"There may be more in this than
just liquor and some of the explain
alton may be represented in the Lee
viathan, which came back from its
trial trip and tied up at the Forty
fourth street pier just about the
time the customs officials were
breaking British seals and taking
away British liquor.
