1893 Found on West ROad-Ma-

covered.

While the city police were out ap-
pretending car thieves Tuesday morn
ing they came across an abandoned
Pontiac sedan at the side of the road
between the Martin Nelson residence
and the Bob Chapman place in the
west part of Plentywood.
The car was brought into the Lang
garage where the license number and
engine number were takn by the Off
GERS. A communication was at once
sent to Oklahoma reporting the pick
ing up of the car in the hopes that
the owner might be found 1t was
thought by the officers, however, that
the machine carried stolen license
Evidently the occupants of the
abandoned car had met with some
kind of an accident before leaving
the auto to its fate as the front axle
was badly bent and the front wheel;
were completely out of alignment.
The speedometer on the sedan reg
istered 22,196 miles and the body anC
cushions were in first class condi
tion.
No clue as to the owner has beel
found at this time. The machine i
believed to have come from the ives

Once again the upland birds of the
state will be the targets for the scat
tergun sportsman, after a closed sea-
son of several years. The season on
upland birds will open September 16

chief deputy game warden announces.
Duck season will open on the same

Flathead and Powell counties and that
part of Teton county north of the Te-
ton river.
Already the geese can be heard ov-

to the south. Ducks are gathering
on the lakes and small bodies of wa
ter and the young prairie chickens are

COMERTOWN STORE
ROBBED AGAIN ON
MONDAY EVENING
Jacob Tweet Store Again Entered by
Thieves Who Stole Guns and Mer-
chandise-TwO Suspects Arrested.

Sheriff Salisbury was again called
to Comertown Tuesday morning to in
vestigate the second robbery of the
store of Jacob Tweet Monday night or
Tuesday morning.
The only clue to the robbers was a
hat which had been left by one of
the burglars. Sheriff Salisbury got
busy at once and after investigating
found that two men had left Conner
town that morning and Immediately
traced them, finding the strangers be-
tween McElroy and Westby. One of
the men was identified by Comertown
citizens as the wearer of the hat
found in the store on the previous
day. Both men were brought to
Plentywood and placed in the county
Jail. They gave the names of Sig
Schultz and Ray Howard. Schultz
gave his home as Emerado, N. D. and
Howard says he is from Illinois.
Sheriff Salisbury is asking all mer-
chants in small towns without police
protection to keep very close watch
on their places of business, especially
at night as these places make easy
pickings, unless guarded, for the
tough element which is following the
} harvest hands.

every day and terrific heat causing
the grain which had been cut to mold

PLENTYWOOD LOOT
Is FOUND AT SCOBEY
Sheriff Salisbury Brings Back Two
Suspects and Places them in County
Bastile-Men Picked up by ScObey
Chief of Police.

Acting on information supplied
them by Sheriff Salisbury the Scobey
police force watched members of the
Carnival Company playing in that
city in an endeavor to solve the rob
berry of the Hanisch tailor shop in
this city last week.
Their watch was finally rewarded
by observing one of the carnival men
who had remained in Scobey after the
carnival had left that town, wearing
a new pair of trousers which did not
seem to fit in with the rest of the
apparel worn by that individual. He
was taken up and his room visited in
hotel in that city where another
man was found, and a number of silk
dresses and a suit beloging to Posku
Popesku were recovered. Sheriff
Salisbury was called to take the men
who had been placed in Jail in Scobey,
back to Plentywood after the goods
had been identified as the merchan-
disc stolen from the Hanisch Tailor
Shop in this city.
Two dresses were recovered and
the Popesku suit of clothes and fur
ther clues are being followed in the
hope of regaining the remainder Of
the stolen goods.
The suspected robbers who are now
resting in the local bastile give the
names of w. ]. Hedberg and r. v.
Black.
Hedberg says he does not know
anything about the stolen goods and
Black claims that a man brought the
goods found in his room up in box
and sold the contents to him for SIS.

Quoting from Mr.. Hoover's speech
of acceptance, Mr.. Rankin said: "In
these plain, matter of fact, unequivo-
cal statements, there rings sincerity
and determination. He pledges him
self to something definite and practi-
cal, namely the expenditure of few
hundred million dollars, if necessary
in order to give the farmers their fair
share of the nations prosperity.
Turning to the problems of the next
state administration, he said: 1--WE
are mindful of the fact that the next
governor of Montana will assume the
reins of government with an empty
ltreasury-a treasury worse than emp
