JOHNSON ACCUSES
COOLIDGE HACKERS

Washington, ID. c.. March s.
President Coolidge's supporters were
charged directly last night by Sena-

the responsibility for the placing of
a man named Hiram Johnston on
the primary ballot in Michigan as a
candidate for President
This is simply trick" said Sena-
tor johnson. (which would disgrace
the meanest kind of petty politics"
The California senator. whose name
also. is on the Michigan presidential
ballot denied that he had abandoned
his campaign for delegates from New
York state. and charged that the sys-

made to put his name on the ballot.
In Michigan the Coolidge people,
I am advised by telegram, found n
man named Hiram Johnston and
have put his name on the primary
ballot as candidate for President.
This is simply trick which would
disgrace the meanest kind of petty

fall in love with one another. The
officer is called to the front on the
eve of their wedding. He is she'll
shocked. loses his memory and returns
to London. He achieves success. mar
ries n woman whose sole interest IN
life is TO advance her social position
and their married life is far from
happy.
In the meantime the fame of the
little French dancer has spread from
the continent TO London. Her sue
cess has been gained under an assumed
name. The sight of the French maid;
en- appearing in the stellar role amid
a dazzling display of dancing feminity
on a London stage, brings back the
Britisher's memory and he arranges
meeting with her. -.

Palace Film Is Story OF Boom at
Ranger.

A vivid reminder of the carly days
of the oil fever at Ranger is presented
in "Flowing Gold" the feature pic
ture now showing at the Palace Thea

that attended the discovery of oil in
the small Texas town that quickly
became a city are reproduced. Es-
pecially is this true of the slushy, al

a hindrance TO the hauling of pipe

most dramatic incident follows in the
fight of Allegheny TO save herself and
Gray from flood and burning oil.

ing factions.
Strong government reinforce
ments arrived near Sac Paule city
over the week end, but all reports
here agree the federals are making
little progress against the well
trained and splendidly equipped Sac

Strength Increases
The strength of the revolution
has been increased considerably by
civilian volunteers.
Two Americans have arrived in
Santos, the seaport Of Las Palo
City, but the only message allowed
to pass the censor read:
1--WE have seen the situation and
it IS terrible"
A censorship is vigorously en-
forced and newspaper correspondents
in Santos are allowed to send only
official communicates.
The impression is growing >here
that Federal control of the State OF
Sac Paulo is seriously menaced, and
it seems certain that the prime pur-
pose Of the rebellion is political and
aimed at the Federal regime in Rio.

Further Improvement in the lun-

In Industrial buying, Lumbermen
look ahead with confidence, believ-
ing that while demand during the
summer may remain moderate, there
should be a substantial pickup in
the fall. This expectation is based
on the very favorable crop reports.
If harvests materialize as success
fully and farmers realize as fair
prices for their products as is now
indicated, a heavy country demand
for @Sber this fall is likely. Some
IunhEInen point out that if this
