Maudlin Sentiment.
From the Jackson Progress-Argus.

The sob squad has now turned its at
tention TO the two young men in TayoB
county who will be hanged in a few
DAYS for one of the foulest murders that
has ever blackened Georgia. OF course
the unfortunate men are to be ptied; but,
on the other hand, there should be some
concern for outraged law and sympathy
for the woman and nine children bereft
OF husband and father, who was murder
ed while doing his slayers an act OF kind
ness Overtaking them in the road he
gave the two men seat i'll his automo-
bile, and a few minutes atterward was
shot in the back of the head and robbed
OF the money he had. Grimes of violence
have become too frequent in Georgia and
certain and speedy punishment is neces-
sary to make life and property safe

paratively short time at that, until the farmer
will find himself engaged in a very profitable
business. 1t cannot be otherwise. Some farm

rewarded All the legislation that will be
needed is of the character that gives every
man and every interest fair and equal

C0DIFICATI0N OF
SEA LAWS Seen
Fifty Nations to Discuss
Maratime Questions.

BIZ Times Special
GENEVA, Oct. "A worldwide
campaign to improve working con-
ditions of sea workers is to be
launched next year by the Interna-
tional Labor Bureau.
Immediately following the eighth
International Labor Conference,
which will be held in May, 1926,
special International Labor Confer
ence will be held which will be de-
voted exclusively to the consideration
of maratime questions.
The second conference will rank as
the ninth International Labor Con-
ference, and it is expected that it
will be attended by virtually the
same delegations that take part in
the first. Over fifty nations are ex-
pected to be present.
The two principal items on the
agenda of the sea workers confer
ence are: First, international codifi-
cation of rules relating to seamen's
articles of agreement, and, second.
general principles for the inspection
Of conditions of work of seamen.
The International Labor Bureau

of the sixty nations affiliated with

LONDON, Oct. Chain mail
vests and steel helmets may soon be
standard equipment for machine
gunners in British bombing planaes.
The proposal is being seriously
considered by the British Air Min
istry following a study Of the
greater vulnerability Of the position
i'm which the gunner in an airplane
fights, as compared with the pilo.
The pilot is protected from direct
frontal attack by the bulk Of the en-.
gine in front of him, and from be-
hind by the position Of the gunner's
body and considerable equipment.
Only q part of his head appears
above the fusilage.
The machine gunner in the rear
cockpit, however, has no protection
from rear attack, and must in addi-
ton expose a considerable part Of
his body above the cockpit if he is
to stand so as to get the maximum
efficiency from his guns Plans to
house the gunner in revolving steel
turrets are not considered practi-
cable, owing to the fact that such
arrangements necessarily limit the
gunner's range Of vision.

in response to one requesting that a
fish wheel be constructed at the
dam on Wolf Greek. Nothing fur
Their will be done about the fish wheel
until the reservoir work is complet-

which are reported to have been

the fish to swim further up the
and increase the attractive

TELLS OF ADVENTURES
ALONG THE ROAD

The Herald this morning received
a letter from the M. L. Walters fam
lily telling of their interesting exper
fences along the road and the success
they are meeting with in planning
their musical programs. The letter
written from Kramer, North Dakota
July 7, says:
"Altho we have been on the road
nearly three weeks, you see we have
not gotten very far from home.
We are anxious to see the home
paper tho, so please mail it to us at
Kramer this week
We left Wolf Point just after the
big rain there and have only encoun-
tered storms while in camp.
One rain raised the Red Water,
making crossing difficult so that some
who had attended the entertainment
we gave at Vida failed to get to
Richey also to hear us as they had
planned.
We were quite pleased by seeing
quite a number there who had already
been entertained at Vida.
We have found so many friends
both old and new at all our stops
that we dread leaving. Met one lady
Sunday who said she used to know
my sister who taught school here
twenty years ago and drove the Ara
bian horses and could hardly believe
I was the one she had known.
We give entertainments here We'd
nesday, at Bottineau Thursday, Sou
ris Friday, and at Lansford Tuesday,
then expect to start for Shell Rock,
Iowa, so please send next weeks pa
per there.
We have roads and crops general
ly good.

a concrete culvert and the steer
ing gear snapped. He was pinned
under the car and was unconscious
when picked up by passerbys who
brought him to town. He is much
better this week and it is hoped
that no serious developments will
set in. The accident occurred about
ten miles out of town.

GARNER SAVED FROM
DEFEAT BY E

CONTINUED from First Page)
another mar was chosen at the last
minute. "Chick'' wisely surmised
that he would have no chance for a
decision if the bout went for the ten
rounds so he went in from the sound
of the gong to finish the match
by the K. 0. route. He carried the
fighting to his opponent in a style
that made the natives gasp. He bat
tered Garner all over the ring and
knocked him down in the second
round. Garner is three inches tall
er and at least 10 pounds heavier
than "Chick'". No fair minded
person could claim that Ferguson
didn't have the best of the argu-
ment all the way.
The Way to Win
Things began to get serious for the
Outlook battler, then came the deci-
sion, based on a claim that n of
"Chick's" blows went low Garner
didn't claim it was a low blow and
no one so far as heard from saw
a blow delivered low excepting, of
course, the referee. "QhicNp says
he didn't put up any boiler because
he knew it was not a particle of
use, and he had wisely secured the
terms as to percentage, win
or lose.
Their Betting System
Incidently it might be mention
ed that "Chick" Ferguson has been
engaging in ring matches for twelve
years and never before has he lost
a match on a foul. Here is one
more peculiar fact that gives a
line on Plentywood's craftsmanship.
After the first match when Fergu-
won on a foul all bets were
promptly declared off. In the
match on the Fourth when Garner
declared winner on a foul all
bets stood. So there you are. If
anybody ticks Battling Garner they
will have to keep all blows above
MS ears, and fight him some place
besides Plentywood.
