TEST|F|ES IN
BOOZE INVESTIGATION
Former Federal Judge Charges Chi
cago SaIoonkeeper Gained Pardon
Through Politicians

Washington.-The Senate DaugherA
ty investigating committee, May 2
heard Kenesaw Mountain Lands, for
mer federal judge and at present "the
car of baseball, criticize the grant
ing of a federal pardon by President
Coolidge in a liquor case. The criti-
cism was directed at the release of
Phillip Grossman, a former Chicago
saloon keeper, from a years imprison-
ment for violation of the prohibition
law.
Called to testify about the house of
correction sentence he imposed on
Phillip Grossman for liquor law vio-
~lations, he said he couldn't under
stand to save his life how Grossman
got his pardon from President Cool
idge. Although the judge insisted
there were six witnesses to Cheeseman's
derelictions, Senator Wheeler cited a
department Of justice representation
to President Coolidge that but one wit
ness had testified to the incident of
selling whisky which resulted in the
mans sentence for contempt.
AT dinner parties in Chicago, judge
Lands said, in commenting, ''pre-war
stuff" still appeared to be holding out
remarkably well, and he confessed that
he himself had not been able to resist
the enticing invitation of his hostesses
to try some of it.
But he added that the department of
appeared to be doing the best
it could in view of the fact that it
didn't always have the best of lawyers
on its pay roll.

MAY GIVE UP SENAT0RSH|P
Retirement From Massachusetts, Sena-
toriaI Race Expected to be An
nounced in Near Future

Washington.-William M. Butler, of
Massachusetts, will manage the 1924
national Republican campaign and
succeed John r. Adams, Of Iowa, as
chairman of the national committee, if
President Coolidge is nominated at the
Cleveland convention as the Repubil-
can standard bearer.
President Coolidge decided that if
he is nominated at the Cleveland con
vention he will recommend selection of
Mr.. Butler, his preconvention CAM
paign manager, to the new Republican
national committee for the chairman
ship and, in accordance with custom,
his recommendation undoubtedly will
be adopted.
The presidents decision was an
nounced in the following statement by
him, made public at the White House
at night:
"After conference with Chairman
Adams, who has indicated to me that
after the organization of the incoming
Republican national committee he does
not wish to continue as chairman, !
have decided to present to the new
committee for their consideration for
the Craftsmanship, the name of William
M. Butler, who has managed the pri-
mary campaign"
The assumption by Butler of the
duties of national chairman is expect
ed to preclude his participation in the
for the Republican nomination
for United States senator in Massa-
chusetts, and his retirement from the
is expected to be announced with
in the near future.

LAST TRAINLOAD OF BEET
LABORERS ARRIVES IN SIDNEY

A second six-car special train, direct
from Ell Paso, Texas, arrived ia Sid
ney with 300 Mexicans to go into the
beet fields of the lower Yellowstone
valley irrigation project. This brings
the total up to 900 and it is expected
to be sufficient to do the hand labor
for the $500 acres of beets to be
grown locally this year.
This fall, when the migration will
start back for the south, it is estimated
that the Mexican colony will carry
with them the sum Of $165,O00, earned
by hand labor in the beet fields of this
valley.
Due to the foresight of Mr.. Hogarty,
manager of the Billings factory and
who was on the project in February,
the housing conditions for this immi-
grafton were all prepared and waiting.
One of the features of the coming of
the MeXicans is the detailed system in
which the matter is handled. With no
congestion and without the slightest
delay in time, the newcomers are re-
ceived and their intended destination
found.
1t is a cosmopolitan community, this
lower Yellowstone valley, with it's
English, Danish. German, Spanish and
Scandinavian folk; each speaking his
own language and all able to use the
prevailing English when it better

MODERN AND ANCIENT
TRAINS TO CROSS STATE
Great Northern VIII Stage Exhibition
Showing 6O-Year Progress in
Train Service

The Great Northern is instituting
one of the most unique travelling ex-
positions in the history Of American
~railroading, according to J.. F. Kelly,
district freight and passenger agent
at Billings. The de luxe train of 60
years ago will be contrasted with the
modern newly built all-steel passen-
ger train of today.
The exhibition Of these two trains
will begin in the Union Station, Chi
cago, May IA, after which they will
proceed under their own steam over
the Burlington road to the Twin Cities,
and thence on to the Pacific northwest
in a triumphant procession, stopping
n day each in Fargo, Grand Forks,
Spokane, Seattle and Portland.
The pioneer train Of this exhibition,
manned by a crew of veteran trainmen,
will consist of the diminutive William
Crooks, the first locomotive used Oh
the Great Northern railway. This toy
like engine will be "hitched up" to an
combination coach and the
original Pullman sleeper No. 8, which,
in its day, furnished luxurious sleep
ing accommodations for the most
prominent people of the nation. Pull
man sleeper No. 9 first went into SER
vice in 1859. For many years this
unique relic of the days of Abraham
Lincoln has been kept IN exhibition at
