Strange Pelt is
That of Coyote
Coyote Released from Captivity Was
Killed After Real "FOx Hunt"
in Town of Salem.

No wonder County Clerk Charles
Holderness was puzzled on Monday
morning when he received pelt from
Bassetts, which he could not identify
either as a wolf or fox.
Today it has been learned that the
hide was that of coyote which was
killed near Silverlake after real fox
hunt staged by farmers who had be-
come enraged over the depredations
made by the beast. The coyote was
originally the property of Frank Mar
tin at Silverlake and escaped from
captivity several months ago. Since
that time it had killed many sheep,
chickens and turkeys in the Fox river
neighborhood.
A purse of $3.50 was raised to give
dhthe man who killed the animal and
more than eighty farmers Joined in
the fox hunt recently. After an all
days hunt the animal was finally
trapped on an island in the river and
Ivan Smith of Silverlake, fired the shot
which killed him.
As a coyote is member of the
brush wolf family, the hunter is also
entitled to 81 bounty from the
county.

PUTS TEETH IN
CIVIL RIGHTS BILL
Would Provide Penalties Against Any
One Interfering with Free
Speech in State.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire)
Madison = The assembly today en-
crossed the Dieringer bill putting
teeth in the civil rights law after a
motion to kill the measure had lost,
20 to 80.
The bill would provide a fine of
$500 to $4,000 and a prison sentence
of 80 days to one year for violations
of "the rights of freedom of speech
and press the right to organize and
the right to peaceful assemblage.' y
Under the bill persons violating such
rights would be liable to civil dam
ages in addition to the penalties pro-
vided. Public officials found guilty
of such offenses would be removed
from office.
The assembly killed the insurance
and banking committee bill prohibit
ing the issuance of railroad passes
and franks to railway employees or to
incumbents of public offices and
candidates for office. The Woller bill
authorizing counties to set apart ter
ritory outside the limits of cities and
villages for residential, business and
factory districts was finally passed
and sent to the senate.

Too much is being spent on inter

These were the respective utterances
of former Senator Hoke Smith of

A letter from President Harding
emphasizing the important relationship
of the credit men to the national bust

his letter the President said:
Gas trained students of business, and
skilled observers of its cycles, they

value to many government agencies and

DRY NAVY WINNER
in FIRST ENCOUNTER
Clash With Mosquito Fleet Of Detroit
Results in Capture of Rum Run
ner Monday.
an Associated Press Leased Wire.


Detroit, Mich. - A boat of the "dry
navy" limped into port late yesterday,
taking on water through leaks in bow
and stern, but none the less victor
in her first clash with the mosquito
fleet" of the Detroit river rum run
ners. lasss. i5tit
1t was the government speed boat
P-10S with rum launch containing
100 cases and 20 kegs of beer in tow,
that battered her way through ten rum
speed boats that harassed her, snatch
ed at her liquor prize and attempted to
sink her until G. A. Van Dusen, in
the government boat sent them scurry-
ing for cover with several shots from
his revolver.
The rum laden launch had made a
dash from Fighting Island in Canadian
water to "Hogan's Alley" a favorite
American terminal for contraband Ii
quor at Ecorse. The rum boat beat the
P-103 to the shore but her skipper did
not have time to tie up to the dock
before the P-103 was alongside. The
rum boat skipper escaped.
Van Dusen had taken the rum launch
in tow and was starting up the river
with it when the Mosquito fleet" ap-
peared. The rum boats swarmed on
every side, The speedier craft of the
attacking fleet would dash straight
at the P-103 and then "skid" nearly
upsetting both boats.
A long gray rum boat, faster than
the others pursued these harassing
tactics for while then, becoming bold
er, dashed straight into the P-1O3,
ramming her full astern, and opening
a beam in the "dry boat" The gray
craft returned to the attack moment
latter ramming the P-10S head on,
jamming the metal bow of the govern
ment boat and splitting a plank for
ward, just above the water line.
This was Van Dusen's cue. He drew
his revolver and fired through the gray
craft, whereupon her skipper fled, fol-
lowed by the rum-running armada.

HARDING MAY ASK
MODIFICATION OF LAW
President Now Sees No Course But
to Enforce Law Against Liquor
on Foreign Ships.
tBy Associated Press Leased wire.)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Washington, D. C. There were
increasing indications in high official
circles here today that President Hard
ing might ask Congress, when it re-
assemblies next fall, to modify the
prohibition law as it affects the car
rying of liquor on board foreign yes
sells in American waters.
The president was said to believe
that Congress never intended the gov
eminent to be confronted with the
situation it now is called upon to meet
by the objections of foreign powers
in regard to the new rigorous ship
liquor ban.
In the present circumstances, it
was added, Mr.. Harding sees no posi-
BILE course open to him but to enforce
to the letter the Volstead act as it
recently was interpreted by the SUI
preme court. He believes that no exc
cutive regulation he could issue could
properly modify application of the
courts opinion, and that only an act
Of Congress would be sufficient.

repair purposes aggregates in that
period about $350000,000; the value
of automobile tires exported in
that period was $180,000,000. and
the engines about $30,000,000.
A much larger proportion of the
machines exported is still doing
business in some form than is gem
orally realized, for many of the
machines originally sold for pas
senger purposes are after they
have rendered service in the capaci-
ty originally intended transformd
into a condition in which they can
be used for the minor trade traffic
and industry purposes, rendering
service to enormous numbers of
persons engaged in business and
mechanical industries, and thus
minimizing the time lost by the
former traffic methods and to that
extent increasing their business
facilities. Automobile authorities
estimate that more than three
fourths of the motor cars manu-
featured are used more or less for
business purposes.
One interesting feature of this
compilation prepared for the Trade
Record lies in the opportunity
which it offers to compare export
prices at the present time with
those of decade ago. The num-
Der of passenger machines export
ed in 1913 was $3.50 and the value
SIS ,347 ,644, an average of practi-
cally 1000 per machine, while the
number of passenger machines ex-
ported in 1922 was 5000 and their
recorded value on expectation $751;

on finance committee bill for trans

takes effect July 1st.
Objection to the use of witness fees

THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE ABROAD

The merican automobile
"honks" in every language of the
world and does business in every
climate. It sounds its warning in
over hundred different countries,
colonies and islands, and renders

north to the equator and thence to
the most extreme southern line of
human habitation. 1t takes" the
steep grades of the Andes or the
Himalayas with the same comp1a-
cency with which it traverses the
pampas of South America or the
desert roadways of Africa and
Australia.
Figures compiled for the Trade
Record Of The National City Bank
of New York show that the num-
Der of passenger machines export
ed from the United States in the
last decade was $4,000, and of COM
mercial machines, including motor
trucks and buses, 135,000 The
value of the passenger machines
exported in the last decade is
S534,000,000, and of commercial
machines $288,00000. If we should
carry the record back to a dozen
years and include motor cycles,
which are in fact automobiles, :"
the total number of machines ex-
ported, including those sent to our
own colonies, would reach a mil
lion, and the value a round billion

tomobiles of all types exported in
