N|CKLE PLATE IS
UP To new
HIGH
Dull and Irregular Market
Strengthens On Buying
For Long Account
BY w. s. COUSINS,
International News Service.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Follow-
ing a dull and irregular opening,
In which prices of active specula-
tive stocks lost fractionally, some
q point or more, the stock market
staged moderate rally in the
early trading today, and prices
moved slightly above the level of
the previous close.
Speculative attention was directed
to American Wooden and other
speculative leaders at the opening
in order to gauge the probable
effect of over night selling orders.
Wooden opened 215 points lower
at IS for $500 shares but soon
climbed up to around IS as trans.
actions in the first half hour
aggregated $4,000 shares. The bulk
of the sales were made at better
than 81 at which price the stock
was down about one point from
the previous close.
Bearish pressure against active
stocks failed to produce further un.
settlement and short covering, com.
bined with new buying for the long
account, was reflected in a general
firming up of prices before the end
of the first hour. The Van Swerin-
gen railroad shares were prominent
in this rally, with old Nickel Plate
up four points to new high at
1904; Erie and Pere Marquette
slightly higher; Delaware and Lack.
awana was up four points at 141
and Norfolk and Western point
higher.
Copper and sugar stocks were
Joined by the oil stocks in a rally
Of fair proportions after the early
selling orders had been taken care
of. The improving situation in
the foreign metals markets con-
tinues to stimulate both the copper
industry and copper stocks, and 1t
required moderate buying to adj
vance prices point or more in
strong and Utah securities made
an advance Of three points to
new high at "a.
Demand for oil stocks increased
in the second hour as reports from
the oil markets indicated a stronger
trend for prices and the improb-
ability of further cuts in prices Of
crude oil and gasoline. Standard
Oil stocks were active and strong,
as also were such independent oils
as Cosden, Sinclair, Marland, Pro-
ducers and Refiners, Phillips and
Royal Dutch.
Leaders in the steel and indus
trial group were rot active and
price changes were narrow. Sell
ing pressure on Famous Players
resulted in a further loss of AK
points in that stock.
Call money rates were marked
I'm to 2h per cent.

ceedings should be granted for the
reason that the indictment would be
bad ON general demurrer.
Reads Long Ruling.
Commissioners Turnage's decision
covered more than seven pages OF
legal foolscap. He read the ruling
in its entirety, and counsel for
the defense was kept busy scrib-
bling down the legal references In
which the decision abounded.
The indicted m ms attorneys
asked that the hearing be con.
tinued until a later date, in order
that evidence may be introduced in
behalf Of the accused, with bearing
on the removal.
A difference Of opinion between
the opposing lawyers was evident
as Commissioner Turnage sought
to bring about an agreement ON
the date for resumption Of the
hearing. A recess was taken until
September % at 10 o'clock.
Commissioner Turnage made lit
tie of the defendants argument
in connection with Identification,
the attorneys having charged that
the accused men were SAID In
the indictment as having been
late of the District Of Florida"
The Florida grand jury which re.
turned the indictment did not even
know the first names of the per-
sons they accused was another
point.
Beyond His Jurisdiction.
IT have little difficulty in deal
ing with the question of the iden-
tification of these defendants" said
the commissioner, land find that
they are the persons named in the
indictment, and feel that the argu-
ments presented by counsel in this
regard are extremely technical ana
should not be considered by aeon
missioner in a removal proceed
ing"
Commissioner Turnage, through
out his decision, stressed the fact
that the hearing was not in a
court of law, and made plain that
all legal technicalities are not
considered as being within the
province Of a commissioner. He
said he was called upon merely
to establish In practical sense
the identity Of the defendants and
the question of probable cause.

OLD PLAINSMAN TELLS
OF BISON MIGRATION

Few would suspect that John M.
Stone, now digniied and white-haired
bookkeeper at the Farmers Telephone
Co., was an old plainsman of much
experience but such is the case. Chat
ting with few friends the other night
Mr.. Stone told of a cattle drive he par
ticipated in in 1873 from southern Col
orado to Julesburg, a distance of sew
era1 hundred miles. The cattle were
picked up enroute and driven over
land to Julesburg where they were
loaded on the Union Pacific to ship
to Council Bluffs. On the headwaters
of Platte river the cattle drivers en-
countered huge herds of buffalo and
had considerable trouble steering the
cattle through as the bisons fright
ened the domesticated animals. There
was one bad stampede al night but
finally the herd was gotten together
and driven through without loss. Mr..
Stone says the Indians had burned
the prairie country on the Republic
can river in Kansas where the buffalo
had their range. AS result they mi
grated by the thousands to the Platte
river. The animals must have been
without water for days as they acted
famished for drink as they reached
the rolling Platte. John also tells how
he and some other men attempted to
domesticate buffalo calf, but that is
another story.

COUNTY BOARD
PASSES PLAN
BY Big VOTE
Most Constructive Measure
in Years is Effective in
1925-3-Year Program.

By a vote of So for and against
the county board at meeting Thurs
day morning passed the county high
way committees hard road plan and
in so doing put through the most con-
structive and beneficial piece of legis-
lation in Grant county's history of
road making.
The plan involves the knitting to-
gether of present hard roads on the
state and county trunk line systems
so that roads actually will consist of
hard surface through their respective
and continuous lengths. The result
will be that by driving few miles
any farmer will be able to reach a
good hard road to take him to his
market town regardless of mud or
other weather conditions affecting
clay roads. 1t will also link the prin-
cipal market towns of the county with
a comprehensive hard road system so
that citizens can travel back and
forth Independent also of weather con-
ditions. The result will be a unified
road system of inestimable value to
all the citizens of Grant county not to
mention countless visitors.
The change in sentiment from a
year ago was apparent. Last year the
Metcalf plan, based upon the same
idea as the present plan, was defeat
ed by a close margin. This year board
members who voted negatively last
year, came out and said they were for
the plan although they dubbed them
selves "turncoats" in so doing.
When the MetcaIf plan was defeated
last year Ben Marcus of Muscoda
called for committee report on the
probable cost of more complete hard
road system, same to be presented at
the 1924 board meeting. The gist of
this report acted on favorably at the
Thursdays meeting, is as follows:

Home Rule Amendment
Carried by Electors

Those who voted for the "home rule"
amendment submitted at the recent
election will be pleased to learn that
latest advices from the secretary of
state at Madison indicate that the
amendment carried.
The big thing in the amendment is
the freedom of cities under it's pro-
visions to organize city government
as they see fit without legislative in
reference.
The amendment is expected to bring
about entirely new systems of city
government in Wisconsin because
each municipality can determine
what boards and commissions it will
have and which it can get along with
out.
The legislature this winter will
more firmly define just what powers
are to be held by the state and the
cities this winter. Much of the Wis
consin statutes which have governed
Wisconsin cities for years will be re-
written to get away from the NUM-
cipal classification which are auto
matically wiped out by the adoption
of the amendment.

BARONIAL GLASS FOR
NAME INITIALED ''R. %

Parties whose last name begins with
r. may secure a big bargain in door
glass for their ancestral home by cal
ling on Mark Hoskins. Mark replaced
the ornamental glass in the front
doors of the library with clear glass,
taking out some beautiful and costly
glass that bears the initial or" in or
namental scroll which signified that
Hon. Geo. w Ryland, former lieuten-
ant governor and Lancaster banker of
standing for years, lived in the old
mansion Mr. Ryland's property con-
sisted of a solid block of ground in
the heart of Lancaster and beaut1-
full place it was and is. At his death
he left the mansion to be used for
library purposes. The ornamental
glass was removed to better light the
building. Here's a chance for the peo-
pie whose name begins with R. to get
a bargain.
