Away In Denver

Denver dailies of Wednesday re-
ord the death Of Alexander w. Grant,
cord the death of Alexander w.
Grant, deputy clerk of the Colorado
supreme court and clerk Of the court
of appeals until that tribunal was
abolished some years ago.
Mr.. Grant was one of the best
known men in Colorado, and is es-
pecially regarded in Gunnison, since
he came with the Gold Belt excite
ment to Vulcan and Spencer as a
young man, and made an enviable re-
cord for himself here. Mr.. Grant
ran for Office in populist days and
was defeated by close vote. In 1896
he went to Cripple Creek, later be-
coming county clerk Of Teller county,
then clerk of the district court and
afterwards was promoted to the Cap
ital City. During the World War,
he was secretary of the state council
of defense. He is survived by a Wild
ow, son, eighteen, and daughter,
ten years old.
a. w. Grant was not brilliant
man, but a talented official who did
his work perfectly and in order. He
participated in y reserved, yet help
full way in building this portion of
the West.

FREAK BEAR KILLED
 BY FOLTA TUESDAY

IA freak bear was killed in Sheep Creek basin Tuesday by George W. F'olta, one which, ale said, is unique as far as he knows. The hair was grayish in color and marked with a black stripe running down the center of the back, the head and feet being black.
 The color was almost identical with the gray wolf of this district. MT. Folta said he had never seen an- other bear of this Kind nor heard of anyone who had. The skin will be shown to biological experts for classification. It is in fine shape, wellJfurred and heavy. It is almost five feet long.
 Five bears were seen in the basin by MT. Folta in two days. One of these was dark brown, fairly good sized animal The others were blacks.

ASK s1,OOO,OOO APPROPRIATION
FOR STATE-OWNED BANK

LINCOLN, Neb.-One million dol
lars for the establishment of a state
owned bank is proposed as an appro-
priation from the state treasury in a
bill introduced in the Nebraska legis-
lature by Axtel Of Lincoln county and
Rasch of Madison.
In this bank, according to the terms
of the measure, all counties, cities,
school districts and ether government
al subdivisions, as we'll as the S ate
itself, would be required to deposit
their funds. On time deposits for
periods of six months or more 2 per
cent interest would be paid. The
money is to be loaned out at rate
not exceeding 4 per cent. Single
loans could be made up to the amount
of $4,000.
The state-owned hank is empowered
to do a general banking business and
to establish a branch in every county,
after two years. It would be managed
by a board Of three directors chosen
by the governor, secretary of state
and treasurer. No one interested in
a. private bank would be allowed to
serve as director.

TOOK SOVIET RUSSIA
SHIPS, u. s. ADMITS
THEM TO PHILIPPINES

New York-In view of the fact
that the American government has
just permitted the white refugees
from Vladivostok, headed by Admiral
Stark, to land in the Philippines, it
is interesting to give the gist of a
decree passed by the all-Russian CEN
trail executive committee on Dec. IA
last.
The decree points out that the ships
in which Stark and mis- fellow refugees
fled are the property of soviet Rus
sia. 1t orders them to return imme-
diately with all men and all ships. and
agrees that upon their voluntary sur
render an amnesty would be extended
to Stark, his officers and his men. If
however, they do not accept this gen
erous offer by returning before Janu-
airy, 1923, theg would be outlawed
forever from their native land.
AS the date set has already passed,
the refugees now being cared for by
Uncle Sam are outlaws from their
own land. The decree was transmit
ted to Stark by Radio. Only 5 of the
u ships are at Manila. The other
seven Of the fleet seem to be lost.

destroy the round robin signed during

the senior Wisconsin senator, it was
authoritatively learned. Instead, Sen

BORTON DICQUALIFES HIMSELF
IN COUNTY SEAT CONTEST CASE

Poplar Standard: Another detail
was added to the now famous ROOse-
velt county seat case yesterday when
Judge C. D. Borton of Glasgow filed
a certificate disqualifying himself to
act in the case. Judge Borton came
to Poplar yesterday and fled the
certificate at that time. He had been
called into the case by Judge C. E.
Conner of this district, several weeks
ago after attorneys for Wolf Point
had disqualified Judge John Greene
of ChOteau, who presided at the first
hearing held in district court here in
December. With Judge BOrton hav-
ing disqualified himself, it will now
be the duty of Judge Conner to call
in another judge.
The next important step in the case
will be on March 1st, before the SUI
preme court at Helena, when the
hearing on the appeal to dissolve the
injunction granted by Judge Greene
is argued by the attorneys for both
sides. While in Poplar yesterday
Judge Borton granted a motion to
allow Wolf Point to substitute the
names of new officers of the county
for the old officers as co-defendants in
the case.

FIRST ATTACK ON
OPIUM TRAFFIC IN
HOLLYWOOD
By Jack Jungmeyer.

Los Angeles, Feb. 16.-The OPEN
ing wedge will be driven into dope
traffic in the worlds movie hub, gov
eminent officials believe, through fed
eral prosecution of James Bruno,
whose trial on charge of vending
narcotics in Hollywood will begin
here February Goth.
Bruno, alias Moreno, say officers
who arrested him, had an extensive
clientele in the famous film center.
This trial follows the visit to Los
Angeles of Colonel Mutt, federal mar
cOtic chief. It is considered the first
gun in a concentrated state and gov
ernment attack on drug vendors
haunting the cinema colony.
Because of its wealthy residents
and sensation seeking winter tour
lists, Hollywood long has been the
mecca of Americas wiliest dopsters
and the despair of enforcement officers.
Here, according to those who thus
picture hollywood habltueS have been
practically immune behind barrier of
wealth and influence. Sleuths de-
clare the handicap in men and money
makes suppression almost impossible.
Again, the problem of enforcement
here probably is the hardest in the
country, officials say, because there
are no dives and no obvious under
world element where the "stool
pigeon" system of detection can be
operated.
Peddlers usually are paid by check
and transactions are those of the
bisiness world rather than of the
den. The result: One peddler is
caught in Hollywood to 100 in other
sections Of the city.

LITTLE WOLFE GIRL
PASSES AWAY

Little Geraldin Wolfe, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert Wolfe, who live
25 miles south of Flaxville, died Sat-
urday night at the Sheridan County
Memorial Hospital in this city.
1t was indeed a very sad affair and
the story told is about family living
25 miles from a railway station, of
untold hardships of getting doctor
through the terrible blizzard of a few
days ago. Of sickness which forced
the doctor to stay in town and then
the long trip home and wrapping the
little child up and the long trip back
to Flaxville the nearest station.
At Flaxville it was found that the
little girl was suffering from appen-
dicitis and she was rushed to the
hospital in PlentywOod on the first
train, and Immediately operated on
at the hospital. But it was too late,
the constitution of the little girl could
not withstand the hard trip and opera
ton along with the suffering while
waiting for aid, and she passed away
at HOO Saturday evening.
The body of the little girl will be
taken to Dayton, Ohlo, Where II VIII
be laid to rest in the family cemetery.
One little brother aged five along
with the father and mother mourn the
loss of the little darling who has gone
to her home beyond the skies.
The sympathy of all is extended to
Mr.. and Mrs. Wolfe IN their greaV De-
reavement.
