QUICK CHANGE FROM
ice BRIDGE TO FERRY

John Pipal, who has resided here
for over 20 years, and given special
attention to the river, says the
switch from ice to ferry as means
of getting over the old Missouri was
the quickest this spring of any in
his memory. Crossings were made
on the ice during last week by team
and car and on foot until Friday
and few that day it is said, most
of the travellers prefering the foot
method on the last days.
Friday evening the honey-combed
ice gave way under the pressure of
the rising water. By two o'clock
Saturday morning quite high mark
was reached and Littlefeld's big
power ferry, White City, was float
ed out of her winter nest and into
the. stream. Saturday forenoon the
first crossing of the season was
made. Some work had to be done
on the landings but service is now
regular.

NEWLY BUILT STEEL "0RIENTAL LIMITED
TRAINS ON GREAT NORTHERN RY. JUNE |

They are of very heavy construction,
practically sound proof and vibra-

Grated under the direction of a well
known interior decorator and will

Ralph Budd, president of the
Great Northern Railway, in an off
cial bulletin relative to this new SER
vicce says:
"This spic and span train, new in
every detail, is the elimination Of
an improvement program of several
years. It involved an expenditure
of many millions of dollars. Put
ting on new train does not merely
mean the purchase of one locomo-
tive and the necessary cars for one
train. In establishing this new train
it was necessary to actually provide
the equivalent of ten complete
trains. Eight of these complete
trains will be in regular service and

BOLD ROBBERY OF
CLOTHING STORE
YEGS SMASH WAY THROUGH
GLASS, GET VALUABLE
LOT OF LOOT

Some time during the dark hour:
of Tuesday morning robbers forced
an entrance into the Fad clothing
store and made their get away with
articles of clothing estimated to be
worth at least $500, part of which
was recovered Wednesday.
The rear door and window of the
store are strongly barred so the
thief or thieves came to the front
door and hurled brick bat through
the extra heavy plate glass, making
hole large enough for them to
enter. The stubs of safety matches
scattered about the floor showed
methods used in finding what was
wanted.
0. G. Johnson, proprietor of the
store, says it is difficult to determine
what is missing from large stock
such as clothing, but was sure at
least four suits and number of
shirts and hats were missing. He
estimated the loss at $500 or over.
Wednesday Archie Belgard and
young son OF Peck Ken were playing
about the sheds of the former Home
Lumber Co. and discovered two suits
thrown under shed among the
weeds. The same day Joe Mcmahon
found cheap brown suit case con-
tanning three suits in the manger of
q barn back of the Vinson rooming
house, which is just north of the
lumber yard. All were identified by
Mr.. johnson as belonging to his
stock and among the most valuable.
It is believed that more of the stolen
goods will be found and that there
s a fair chance of tracing the
hieves.
The job looks like the work of
amateurs and is strong argument
lgainst dark streets during any part
f the night.

FINEST ROLLING STOCK IN THE
WORLD WILL CARRY PAS
SENGERS ON HILL LINE

st. Paul, Mimi, April 7.-Official
announcement is made by Ralph
Budd, president of the Great Nor
thern Railway, that on June 1st the
Great Northern will put into service
ten newly equipped "Oriental Linn
tied" trains between Chicago and
the Pacific Northwest - Spokane,
Portland, Tacoma, Seattle, Everett
and Victoria, via st. Paul, Minnea-
polls and Glacier National Park.
Home Luxuries
These new all-steel trains will be
the most modern known to the mas
ter car builders of the Pullman Com
pany, in whose shops they are being
built. They embody the latest de-
signs and Improvements in sleeping
car equipment. Many unique fea-
lures will be available, including the
shower baths, both for men and wo-
men, commodious lounge room ex-
clusively for women, ladies' maid,
hair dresser, manicure, barber and
valet. The observation cars are
specially designed for mountain
travel with unusually deep recessed
ends and especially wide windows to
the enjoyment of mountain
scenery along the route.

with full length vanity table, an
large mirror, three wash |
stands, and additional space for four
chairs.

Gus as the new sleeping cars in COM
'arison with the average sleeper.

R.R. WAGE INCREASE
BY 33l COMP PANIES
TRAINMEN, SWITCHMEN GET
CLOSE TO S PER CENT
BOOST IN PAY

Chicago, April 8.-Agreements
between all but six western railroads
and representatives of the Brother
hood of Railway Conductors grant
ing the men in those organizations
an approximate increase of 5 per
cent, less compensations to the rail
roads, were signed Tuesday after
noon.
More than $4,000 employees are
affected by the agreements, the de-
tails of which are complicated and
have not been announced. The new
agreements in substance are under
stood to conform generally to a re-
ported agreed basis which became
public earlier in the day.
The increase in wages, while not
computed in the aggregate, proba-
bly, will increase railroad payrolls
something like $5,000,0O0 annually,
road representatives said.
Average Increases
By the terms of the agreement,
conductors and trainmen in passen-
ger service will receive an increase
of approximately 80 cents a day, in
freight service 26 cents a day, and
in yard service including foremen,
helpers and switch tenders ,32 cents
a day.
The agreement provides a guaran-
tee of $5 to $3.50 a day for passen-
ger service work, except conductors
who are guaranteed 81 day.
The negotiators represented 81 of
the western roads and their subsi-
daries and the Order of Railway
Conductors and the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen.
Representatives of the negotiators
said earlier reports were somewhat
and exaggerated Even |
if the per cent were accepted by
both sides, they said, it would be off
set by compensation to the railroads
N the way of revision of rules elimi-
mating some of the overtime pay now
received by the men.

EARTHQUAKE SCARE

doomed and shook and groaned the
other day. The earth heaved for a
few seconds and for miles beyond
echoes carried the reverberations
of mighty shock.
1t sounded as though the city were
in the grip of an earthquake. Every
body ran to cover, just the same as
they do in the tiny Italian villages
under Mount Aetna.
In half an hour the police were be-
sieged by callers and telephone in
quiries: "Was there an explosion?"
"Is anybody killed?" "Ts there a
bomb attack"
After several hours of investiga-
tion it was discovered that the scare
was caused by the construction gang
at Warner Brothers studio; explo-
sives had been used to excavate the
coal mine shaft scenes in "The Lit
tie Church Around the Corner"
Thirty kegs Of black powder and
80 sticks of dynamite were explod-
ed, which rocked the immediate vi
cinity for quarter of an hour.
"The Little Church Around the
Corner" is an adaptation from Chas.
Blayne's play, directed by William
Setter. It will be shown at the Lib
erty theatre Tuesday and Wednes-
lay, with Clare Windsor in the fea-
5ure role.

Another inquiry was made as to
the subjects discussed by the Presi-
dent and Governor Preus, of Mime
sofa. According to this highest
authority" it was merely casual con-
versation and had nothing to do with
the political situation in the North
west.
A question undoubtedly inspired
by protests from millions of radio
fans against the action of the Senate
Finance committee in recommending
tax on radio supplies was submit
ted to the "White House official"
cit is an interesting inquiry" re-
marked the Spokesman" smilingly.
Then, in more serious tone he de-
clared that "it may be laid down as
a broad principle that the President
does not favor increases in taxes.
Every effort has been made to econ
omize in federal expenditures in
order to bring about tax reduction,
and no additions will be favored.
Perhaps some exceptions are justi-
fable where certain commodities are
now free from taxation, but there
must be no further increases on the
sources of revenue already taxed. "
Another question related to bill
now pending before the House which
would allow the government to use
the money in the possession of the
Alien Property Custodian for the
promotion of foreign trade with Ger
many. The administration "spokes-
man" said, "the idea is that alien

INDICTMENT FOUND
AGAINST WHEELER
SUBJECT OF INVESTIGA-
TION AT CAPITAL

The Great Falls Tribune of April
9 says United States Senator Burton
K. Wheeler was indicted by the
Great Falls federal grand jury Mon
day on the charge that after he was
elected in 1922 he accepted retain
er to represent Gordon Campbell,
discoverer of the Kevin-Sunburst oil
field, in matters coming before a de-
partment of the government in con-
. nection with oil land permits. It is
charged that he accepted $4,000
from Campbell ON January 10, 1923
and an identical amount on Febru-
ary 16, 1928, after he had been
elected to the United States senate
in November, 1922. An indictment
also was returned against Gordon
Campbell and L. c. Stevenson, heads
of the Sunburst interests, accusing
them of fraudulent use of the mails
in connection with the financing of
the Gordon Campbell-Kevin syndi-
cate No. 1.
Three Counts
Senator Wheeler is indicted on
three counts. In the first it is charg-
ed that on January s, 1923, he |
agreed to receive from Campbell
large sum of money for services to
be rendered in connection with oil |
permit applications then pending. |
Charges of the same nature are made |
in connection with $4,000 fee al
legged to have been paid to Wheeler
by Campbell on January 10, 1928,
and a like sum on February 16,
1928.
Evidence upon which the indict-
ments against Wheeler is based was
placed before the grand jury by U.
S. Attorney John l.. Slattery, Assist
ant Attorney General J. S. Pratt and
a corps of operatives for the bureau
of investigation of the department
of justice.
