The charges against Samuel Hop

old Corbin, associate of Max d. Steuer,
in the defense of Daugherty, and was
concurred in by United States At
torney Buckner.
The prospective foreman OF the
jury, Walter L. Carey, broker, said
he had read the book.
Put Politicians i'm Bad Light.
While the Daugherty case was not
mentioned In the tome, Carey said,
under examination by defense coun.
sci. it put politicians in a bad light.
Well, that book Is just fiction
Corbin said. land sort of fiction

Turning to Buckner, Corbin asked:
Would you call 1t insidious?"
Buckner said he would.
Another prospective Juror, Edward
REGAIN, theater manager, said he had
an aversion to practical politicians.
I've seen them at their best and at
their worst, and don't like them"
he said.
His remarks followed a discussion
by Aaron Sapito, counsel for Miller,
in which Miller was characterized a
practical politician, "a man who went
out and got campaign funds and dis.
tributed them, but who did not seek
office for himself"
No Taiisman Challenged.

DIAZ LEADS REVOLT.
Restoration of Parliamentary Govern
ment Declared Object.

VIGO. Spain, February OP.-
Political leaders, headed by Gen.
Souza Diaz. are back Of the present
! revolutionary movement in Portl. al
against the dictatorship established by
Gen. Carmona last May.
| These leaders prepared for the
, revolt over period of months.
| Propaganda was assiduously dis
seminated among all the garrisons
| throughout the country to bring
about the movement, the avowed pur.
! pose of which is TO restore the par.
| Elementary administration and permit
the political parties to resume their
functions. The revolutionary procla-
nation was signed by Souza Diaz and
Comdr. Yame de Nores, former Gov
ernor of Angola
President Carmona and the mem.
bers of his cabinet visited Oporto the
last week in January. and the revolu.
tionaries planned to act on that coca
sion by Selling the president and his
ministers and forcing their resigna
ton.
Missed Chance at CarmOna.
They were unable TO carry out this
plan, as there was nok sufficient time
TO inform certain elements upon which
they had counted. Therefore, they de-
cided to effect the coup at 400 am.
on February 4, as two of the ministers
still remained in Oporto, and this plan
was carried out.
The revolutionaries occupied the
military headquarters in Oporto, the
bridges across the River Douro and
the post and telegraph offices, and at.
tackled the officers mess building,
where the minister of commerce and
other officers were sleeping.
The minister of commerce and the
Marquis Ficalho. captain of the
Oporto artillery, caped through u
back window. The marquis joined
his loyal regiment in the Oporto ar
tillery barracks, and thence was or
dered to Coimbra to organize a column
to march on Oporto.
The revOlutionists, led by Souza
Diaz and other officers. all OF whom
are affiliated with political parties,
served an ultimatum upon the govern
ment, demanding it's resignation and
re-establishment of a parliamentary
administration
Troops Move on Oporto.
The minister of war immediately
left Lisbon for the north and estab.
lished headquarters at Aveiro, whence
he ordered an encircling movement on
Oporto. Troops from the first, second
and third divisions of the north were
modified.
Popular manifestations favorable to
the government were made at Aveiro
and other places through which the
government troops passed on their
way to Oporto, led by Gen. Craveiro
Lopes. whom the minister of war ap.
painted commander-in-chief.
Meanwhile the streets OF Ouorto
were guarded and patroIled chiefly by
armed civilians, supporters of the rev
olution. Part OF the garrisons az
Figuero da Fog and Lamego also at
tempted to join the revolt. but were
arrested by government troops.
The revolutionaries dug trenches in
the central square of Oporto which
they defended. The employees OF the
State Northern Railway proclaimed a
revolutionary strike in support of the
revolt.

IN HOTEL DRUG RAID;
HUGE SUPPLY SEIZED

Continued from First Pags.l
The producers news., 1927-05-27

ton of the state is so unsuccessful is because it
recruits such people as Ed Iverson and Aage Lar
sen While the members of the Farmer Labor
Party have long ago learned the truth of the
poetical expression "Unprized the sons till they
learned to betray," the Ani-Farmer gang puts a
premium upon acts of treachery to their political
opponents So much for the induction of Ed
Iverson, camp follower of Frank French, into the
Republican Party.
The Herald takes slam at the editor of the
Producers News because he puts several farmers
through the bankruptcy court each year. Other
lawyers in Northeastern Montana are not crltlciz-
ed by the Herald for carrying out the duties OF
their profession and why pick the editor Of the
Producers News?
The editor makes no apology for putting sever
al farmers through the Bankruptcy Court and
thereby wiping out debts beyond their capacity to
pay. In doing so he claims that he has not alone
rendered good service to the persons involved but
to the community at large A man who is heavi-
ly in debt has no credit and business men do not
feel safe in putting his account on their books. A
man who has his discharge from the bankruptcy
courts starts life anew and is regarded as "good
account" And besides the Bankruptcy Act was
passed to help businessmen who got into financial
difficulties to make new start. Why should not
the farmer take advantage of the laws for the
advancement of business interests, passed by con-
gress?
With reference to the charge Of the Herald that
Mr. Pat Wallace has "Beat eastern creditors out
of the money they lend Sheridan County land, y
the editor admits that he has by free legal advice
saved the farmers of these three counties in the
neighborhood of a half million dollars during
the past two years. Mortgages are, except on rare
occasions made out by the mortgage. In the
fine print are inserted clauses that the man who
takes a loan seldom sees or understands. These
oil, even when they conflict with the law of Mon
tana. Greedy local loan sharks, sometimes acting
without the knowledge of Eastern Creditors" have
tried to "beat' the Sheridan County farmer out
of the produce of his toll by what are known as
"crop mortgages" They have also tried to take
away from him his rights under the laws of Mon
tana during the period of redemption.
In all such cases the Producers News and It's
editor has made the farmer residing in Sheridan
County, cognizant with his rights under the law
The advice in such cases has been free. When the
farmer has taken advantage of such advice it has
redounded to the advantage of every person living
here including the businessmen and the editor OF
the Plentywood Herald.
In doing this service to the community, the
Producers News and its editor have no apology tc
offer to anybody and in the future as in the past
we shall continue along the same path.
