BIG STILL FOUND
BY SHERIFF LOCKE
Found On Saucier Creek East
of McHenry With Plenty
of Mash.

"Found-One perfectly good
copper still of about SO gallon
capacity complete; together
with 10 barrels of mash ready
to be stewed into the elixir of
Joy; also 3 gallons of 'moonshine'
or white mule and one gallon
red mule;' all carrying kick and
guaranteed to throw the rider;
also club ak with bad handle;
2 gallons molasses, two galva-
nized buckets; one tester for
determining when mule is
ready to ride. Owner may OBJ
tain outfit by proving ownership
and paying for this ad. Apply
to &c. Locke, shriff."
The above "ad" describes the
outfit found last Thursday about
noon by Sheriff J. c. Locke, Con-
stable Howell Cobb, and Tom
Evans. The still was found in
the swamp of Saucier Creek
about four miles east of Nc
Henry, and the mash was still
hot, indicating that the operator
had left the outfit shortly before
the officers reached the scene.
However, the still was not
taken Thursday but a close
watch was kept until early Sun
day morning when Sheriff
Locke, Deputy Sheriff Peter
Lott, Constable Cobb and R.
Boone entered the swamp, dis
manteled the still, loaded it in
to an automobile and brought
it to town.
While no chargs have been
made by officers, it is claimed
they know the owners of the
still and that in due time they
will be taken into custody.
The still which is the largest
so far taken by county officials,
was erected in the front yard at
the Locke home Sunday morning
and throughout the day people
stopped to view the outfit.

MAY 30.

In accordance with instructions
from attendants at a conference of
the progressive party of Nebraska
at Hotel Castle on Tuesday, the ex-
ecutive committee has prepared a
public statement which is to serve
as a working basis for the activities
of this party in the forthcoming
campaign.
This state party, which was
launched at Grand Island on Decem-
Der 8, 1921, has been legaiized and
lis funetioning as a political party in
Nebraska. Its leaders, at the con-
ference here this week, decided to
participate in the national convention
to be held at st. Paul or Minneapolis
on May 30, and will be bound by the
action of this national convention.
The following public statement, au-
thorized by the executive committee
of the progressive party of Nebraska.
was signed by J. l.. Beebe, president,
and w. II. Green. secretary:

projects, push them forward as rapid,

permit, and so make the beginning of

from which the farmers of America
are now suffering.

Benefit to Railroads.
"Will such a program encounter
great obstacles? Not If the people who
might be expected to oppose 1t will
look ahead. The railroads should not
oppose it, for water routes for long
haul heavy traffic will increase instead
of diminishing their prosperity by re-
lieving them of the less profitable and
more expensive part of their freight,
while interfering not at all with
passenger traffic, fast freight, and ex-
press, and greatly increasing their
profitable short haul business.
"The history of waterways the
world over is that they do not destroy
the railroads but, on the contrary, sup
port and strengthen them. No one
begrudges the railroads a fair return
on investment, but few would want
either the railroads or any other inter-
est to delay the development of this
great plan.

that the automobile, which at first
was expected to destroy the profits of

GERMANY APPEALS
Formal Request for Foreign Coun- tries 10 Extend Aid is Expected in short Time.

By The Associated Press.
 Berlin, Dec. 1S.-An appeal by the German government to foreign coun- tries 10 help it out of its financial diff faculties is expected within a short time. The appeal may take the form of a request to the League of Nations 10 take control of Germany's finances.
 Action for financial help is regard ed as inevitable on the ground that without such assistance the govern ment will not be able to pay its off cials and will have to announce it's bankruptcy. The forecast is that in d last desperate effort to postpone the evil day drastic taxation measures will be instituted under the emergency powers law, necessitating the tax pay CTS disposing of so meof their prop erty to meet the new taxes.
 In addition. the taxes due in Janu- ary for the Rhine Ruhr relief are be- ing collected now in advance, but the revenue accruing from them will be sufficient for only limited period.
 1t is not apparent what other re- sources the government will have to draw upon, as the Rent enbank is for bidden by statute to furnish further credits, iLs if it did so the Rentenmark would follow the paper mark in de- preciation and the Reichsbank would not be able to advance the govern ment money on treasury bills.
 Apparently the government consid- CTS that no course is left to it but an appeal for a large loan, but what form such an appeal would take is undecided. The most likely course is believed to be move toward having the League Of Nations take financial control
