At first nobody figured that the
Newark Adonis had a Chinaman's
chance against the Mad Bull, but the
propaganda was cleverly worked up,
Weinert assisting with his eloquent

OLE HANSEN SELLS
| REAL ESTATE BUT
| STILL FOE OF REDS
Former Mayor of Seattle
Now Resident of Los
Angeles.
By GRAHAM STEPHENS.

Copyright, by The San Antonio Light
Los Angeles, Cal, March 24.-Ole
Hansen won wide fame as the IN
terrified mayor Of Seattle during the
general strike in that city in 1910
which was planned by the I. W. W.
to be the opening gun in their war
fare to overturn the United States
government. Today Ole is a resident
Of this city, one Of its army of dealers
in real estate and he coyly admits he
believes he is on his way to fortune:
Ole has fine home in the residential
district. But he admitted today that
he would heed the call to go back
north should the reports prove true
that the "wobblies" are flocking back
TO his old home town and their hall,
closed by him by the free use of
weapons during the strike, is to be
re-opened.
Hansen willingly agrees he is con-
WINGED the only way to cope with the
so-called "red" problem in this coun-
try is to meet force with force. He
insisted today that he had taken the
right attitude while a witness at the
recent trial OF eight members of the
industrial workers who were convicted
under the state anti-Syndicalist law.
Confronted by these eight men, al
acting as their own lawyers, Ole de-
nounced them bitterly t. their faces
and it was his testimony. as much as
anything else the jurors later said,
which resulted in the vertlicts of
guilty.
Suggestions made by the I. w. W.
leaders that he was asked to leave
Seattle came in for strenuous denial
by the former mayor who asserted he
resigned several weeks before his term
expired.
Hansen has eleven children and be-
fore he engaged in the real estate
business here he toured the country
, lecturing on his experiences while
| fighting the "reds" as mayor OF
Seattle. Then be came to this city
where he became a member Of the
vast army now engaged in selling
"choice building lots" to townsfolk
and strangers in Los Angeles. He is
| said to have been very successful
even though some Of the lots are a
days journey from the center of the
town, which, however, does not mean
they are necessarily outside the city
limits of this ambitious community
which always is willing to extend its
| boundaries with every sun.

Amsterdam, March 24.-Dutchmen,
who during the world war were in
rather bad odor in all the belligerent
countries because of their profiteering,
have again aroused the anger of the
French and Belgians by the fact that
they are drawing sham contracts with
German business men and refuse TO
ask for export licenses at the allied
customs offices.
In the Ruhr region thousands OF
these bogus contracts are signed daily,
suddenly making neutral foreigners the
owners Of German csrgoes and ships.
The greater part Of the non-military
motor cars in the occupied zone have
apparently passed into the hands of
Dutchmen by means Of false trans
fers. These shady transactions have
proved very profitable for these fishers
in troubled waters.
However, one of the largest Of the
Dusseldorf hotels which had suddenly
become Dutch property, has just been
seized by the French authorities in
spite of Dutch protests. Even the
wine cellars were put under seal
owing to arrears in taxes. A request
from the Dutch consulate for a delay
in the payments until 1t has been
finally settled to whom the taxes are
to be paid was refused by the
French.

HOMESTEAD WOMAN
ACCIDENTLY KILLED
Mrs John Mckenzie Is Smothered to Death Under Load of
Coal Near Medicine Lake Last Tuesday When the Sleigh
Tipped Over.

The Homestead and Medicine Lake
communities were severely shocked
last Tuesday to hear of the death of
Mrs. Jennie Mckenzie, who lives. Ia
miles east of Medicine Lake, her
death being caused by suffocation
while returning home with a load of
coal from mine near Medicine Lake.
1t seems that Mr.. John Mckenzie,
the deceased woman's husband, has
been i'll with rheumatism for some
time, necessitating the doing of the
outside work by Mrs. Mckenzie.
On the day of the fatal accident,
Mrs. Mckenzie had gone to a mine
four miles west of Medicine Lake to
get load Of coal. She had gotten the
load of coal and was returning to her
home and was within a mile of Medi-
cine Lake when she came to a bare
spot in the road and turned to one
side of the roadway to get better
shedding. 1t happened that at this
place in the road the banks are quite
steep where the road has been grad
ed up and in turning out the sled got
to far over the edge and was in dan
ger of tipping over. From all appear
ances the unfortunate lady must have
tried to stop the load from tipping ov-
er by getting on the lower side and
then tried to get on safe ground, but
in doing so the load tipped completely
over burying her beneath the coal
It was only a short time after the
accident that a man with a load of
coal happened along and seeing the
coal and sled tipped over he investi-
gated and Immediately went to Medi-
cine Lake and reported to the officials.
Coroner Martin Nelson Of this city
was Immediately notified and he has
tened to the scene of the accident
Mr.. Nelson found that death had been
caused by suffOcatiOn as there was no
sign of any injury. Her dress was
not torn nor the eye glasses which
she wore at the time of the accident
were not broken.
After the inquest the body of the
lady was taken to her
home where she lies in state.
Mrs. Mckenzie was 48 years old
and is survived by her husband, John
Clifford and Harvey Nc
Kenzie and another son or 6 years
1ld and a daughter, Mrs. Maurice |
The deceased was a most respected |
ady and was dearly loved by all her
leighbors and friends and when any
me needed help she was glad to give |
Ter assistance and being very apt at
nursing was in great demand. Her /
oss will be felt deeply by her .rela- |
ives and friends and neighbors, and /
hose who were nearest and dearest to /
Ter have the sincere sympathy of all |
he people in their sad hour of grief.
The funeral date is not known at
his time as relatives from other
,arts of the country are waiting to
le heard from.

Thursday and Friday of last week
the County Commissioners of Sheri-
dan County were in session and one
Of the big things that was up for
consideration was the hiring of law
yers for the prosecution of Matkins
and Timmons and Beiseker on various
charges.
One of the most brazen attempts
ever pulled off in Sheridan county
was made at this time to induce the
County Commissioners not to hire the
lawyers, Wheeler & Baldwin and Al
L. Vollum, to prosecute Matlins. Tim
mons and Beiseker, thus leaving the
County Attorney Erickson alone to
battle with some of the best legal
talent IN the state. The parties ac-
cused of various charges of graft
needed only one man to do the trick
and that man was Ibsen. Matkin GER
tainly took a great interest in Ibsen
during this session and along with
Carl Peterson and Tyler there was a
family gathering that lasted for a
considerable time
The morning Of the day on which
the decision was made, Commissioner
Lundeen was at the court house at
900 at the usual hour of the Com
meeting as was the clerk
and they patiently waited until 1000
When Jud Matlzins was seen coming
down the walk toward the court house
and on one side Of Jud was Commits
siooner Tyler and on the other Com
missioner Ibsen.
Matkins did not hardly have The
nerve to enter the commissioners
room while this action which was SO
vital to him was going on, SO lust as

gotten into session nicely when Carl

rooms and asked to see Tyler and
they wended their way to the Clerk
Of Court Office where Jud Matkins
awaited them so dame rumor saws.
and where the wise ones tell us that
Tyler probably received his final in
structions.
But the little game didn't work
Mr. lbsen could not be worked bv this
kind of game. He knew that the
people wanted to see these men
brought to trial, he knew that the peo-
pie wanted as good attorneys as the
defendants had, he knew the peonle
wanted the commissioners to be on
the square with them and acting on
ms frm convictions, he voted with
Commr. Charles Lundeen to hire
Attys. Wheeler & Baldwin and A. r.
Vollum, and they will appear at the
trial IN Malta on January 3Oth.
Jens lbsen is to be congratulated on
the stand that he took, because there
IS no doubt but that pressure of every
Kind was brought to bear to influence
him toward defeating the wish Of tba
people of Sheridan county.
Commr. Tyler is likewise to be con-
demned for his betrayal of the people
OF this county. Tyler knows az well
as anyone that if a vote was taken az
whether these lawyers should have
been hired to prosecute Matkins. Tim-
mons and Beiseker, it would carry ov-
erwhelmingly in favor of hiring the
attorneys in this county P,,t 1',7Ia,.
put up the excuse that the lawye,.e
had been paid enough. In other words
ne sald the friendship of Jud MatEins
ana ms kind are worth more to me
lnan the respect of the vast majority
Of taxpayers in Sheridan county.
SO be it, Mr.. Tyler, you have had
your day and the people know what
20 expect, so go your best.
