Mammoth Illicit DistiIlery
Raided By Co. Authorities

The discovery and seizure of a
mammoth illicit distillery and the
arrest of the three men found at the
place was the biggest enforcement
job pulled off last week by the Of
fees of the sheriff and county at
torney.
The raiding of a feed barn at
Poplar and the arrest of Howard
Baracker by County Attorney H. N
Marion and Officers Bannister, Man
ming and Monroe, the same day, was
another good sized piece of work.
A keg of moonshine, jugs, glasses,
etc. were found at the barn.
Complete Surprise
The sensational raid of the big
outfit was made by Sheriff Anderson,
Deputy Council and Deputy County
Attorney A. NJ. Foor. The officials
had been working on this case some
time and had laid their plans so well
that the surprise was complete al
though made in broad daylight The
location of the plant was in the
dense timber and brush about a
mile and half west, or up the Mis-
souri, from Snowden and the Great
Northern bridge, and scarcely a half
mile south of the railroad track and
a we'll traversed highway. Two
trails lead to the place, one lea ging
the main road and passing under /
each of two concrete culverts under
the railroad These take q long. |
winding course and merge into one
trail before reaching the plant.
Sheriff Anderson entered the
woods by the west trail with a car
and waited for signal from Council I
and Foor who followed the trail that
enters the brush at the east culvert
on foot. The strategy of the move
ment was to attract the attention of
sentinels or dogs to the sheriff and
lraw them to the west while the
)ther officials approached by an
other route. The plan worked like
he mash in the big vats-no less
han half a dozen dogs heard the car
and rushed out to meet it more than
lalf a mile away. The sheriff stop
oed his car and talked to the hounds
n friendly tone. They smelled
hings over and decided he was al
light but better be watched so they
tuck around waiting for him to
cave.

1BECGAR ON HORSEBACK
BIGGER THAN ANY CAST

The new James Cruze-P Paramount
production, "Beggar on Horseback, .
which is the feature at the Liberty
Theatre next Thursday and Friday is
described as a story bigger than any
cast, just as was "The Covered Wag-
on" in which the cast wasn't even
talking point. "The Covered
Wagon" was essentially a story, and
in the telling of the story names that
were destined to become famous on
the screen We're created. So with
''Beggar on Horseback" made by
the same director.
"Beggar on Horseback" is a story
of a young musical genius sought by
two girls, one rich, one poor, and
deals largely with a dream he has
in which the ordinary affairs of life
are magnified to ridiculous proper
tions. Some idea Of the extent Of
the production is gained from the
announcement that one complete
stage at the Famous Players-Lasky
studios in Hollywood was devoted to
a single room.
The original stage play was by
George S. Kaufman and Mare Con-
nelly, who dramatized "Merton Of
the Movies" and countless other
successes. Walter Woods wrote the
screen adoption.
Edward Horton and Esther Raj
ston, who played Mrs. Darling in
peter Pan, are featured in the
leading roles Of the production.
Miss Ralston has the role of Gym
thia Mason, and Gertrude Short
plays Gladys Cady, the other girl
who participates with Horton in the
fantastac adventures which compose
his dream, which constitutes one of
the most amazing adventures ever
screened.
Others playing in support are
Ethel Wales, James Mason and Err
win Connolly.

found their way quietly around the
curves Of the narrow trail. At last
they sighted car and then the roof
of shack that was barely on level
with the ground, on one side. Com
ing near they heard voices in the
building and it was the work of
moment to follow the path down
short, steep bank and find themselves
at the open east entrance of a log
and lumber structure, perhaps Is by
80 feet in size, tucked neatly against
cut bank that had once been the
south wall of the main channel of
the Missouri, now switched to near
ly mile south.
Three men were inside, discussing
leak in huge copper still that re-
quired soldering. Deputy Council
drew pair of guns and covered the
party, incidentally suggesting the
proper position for their hands.
They complied and the attorney
searched them for guns but found
none, on them or about the room.
The men gave their names as
Dave Creighton, aged %, Arthur
Phillips, % and William Markesan,
%. Creighton was admittedly the
man in charge and said Markeson
had nothing to do with the outfit
but had chanced to ride out with him
from Williston and was on his way
to Sidney. Creighton had arrived
at the still from Williston with a
supply Of cracked corn only an hour
before. Council and Foor took the
three to Bainville for safe keeping
while Anderson kept guard over the
find.

VIOLENT DEATH
OF WIN. Bartlett
VIDA FARMER CRUSHED UNDER
BACKING TRUCK WHILE
PICKING UP HAT

William Bartlett, a single man,
aged about SO, fell under a rear
wheel of a loaded truck while on
the way to his home near Vida last
Saturday and was so badly injured
that he died the same afternoon,
soon after he had been brought to
the Wolf Point Hospital.
The Inflated man came to Wolf
Point with Fred Young, the Vida
mail carrier, who was making an ex-
: ira trip for freight, and started home
with him. When opposite the home
of Linder Hanks, about miles out,
and near the top Of slight incline,
the wind blew Mr.. Bartelt's hat off
and it fell in the road. The driver,
Mr.. Young, said he would back up
the truck to where the hat lay.
While backing the truck he naturally
kept watch backward from the left
side of the cab, where he sat- I'm
noticed by the driver, Bartlett sprang
out the right side and ran back for
his hat. Just exactly what his move
ments were cannot be known as
there were not witnesses to observe
them. But he secured his hat and |
either fell or was struck by the
truck and run over by the wheel.
The first warning Young got of the
accident was the jolt of the truck
jolting over the body. He stopped
his car so quickly that the front
wheel did not quite reach the pros
trate man. But the rear wheel had
passed over the abdomin and hips.
Mr. Young got him from under the
truck and then called Mr.. Hanks
who brought the injured man to the
local hospital as quickly as possible,
accompanied by Fred Young and
Delbert Rhoades.
Inquest
After the injured man had ex-
oired the matter was reported to
Judge Gordon who as justice has
to act as coroner. 1t was !

IN MAKING
TIRES
Every Step of Manufacture
Must Be Uniform-Great
Exactness Necessary

The secret of good tire making Is
IN the quality of the raw materials,
the skill of construction and the
details of the compounding Of the
rubber which goes into the tire
structure. All of the vagaries OF
nature must be taken into consid-
GRAFTON in the combining OF the raw
materials. perhaps gathered from
widely separated areas, 50 that the
weakness of one viii be offset by
the strength of the other, to the
end that complete uniformity OF
stock will be gained.
This is true of the cotton which
3 is used to make the cords Of the
tire carcass and it is true OF the
rubber which is compounded with
chemicals to make the treads and
the insulations of the cords. Cot
ton crops may vary from one year
to the next even in Ine most favored
cotton growing belts. The quality
Of the rubber which comes from
different parts or the world GER
tainly varies greatly, but the tire
from the Miller engineers must not
change. 1t must perform each year.
uniformly and maintain the stand
ards set by the manufacturers.
The rubber compromising is espe-
cially important. The materials
must be very carefully put together
and in exactly the same proper
tons in each case. The heat in
every step of the mixing and cur
ing must be applied uniformly so
that one batch of mixture or COM
pound will not have qualities which
do not correspond with the stand
ards of uniformity which have been
previously prescribed by engineers
and the chemists.
Heat in the mixing and the cur
ing cannot be regulated hap
hazardly. Should the rubber COM
pound be baked too long it will be-
come more brittle and hence not
have the tensile strength that is
standard. If it is under done"
there is not the strength because
Il is too soft and will wear too
quickly. The period between too
much baking" or curing and too
little curing is a zone of great at
tention and experimentation on the
part of the chens lists and engineers.
1t often is fractional parts of min
utes and to attain the maximum
strength it must be Just right. :"
