NEW YORK, June l0-A distinctly

effect on the general nervous state Of
trading sentiment.

Pressure on Utilities.
Heavy pressure was eXerted against
the utilities, declines being particularly
marked in those which advanced so

but Empire Power, American Light Il
Eastern stocks we're scarcely affected.
The common and class A stocks Of the
last company ranged close to their rec
ord highs.
The early profit taking was also effec-
tive in checking operations for the rise
of certain issues which developed pro-
nounced strength at the opening. There
was special buying at the outset in Sem

announcement of new contract for
installation of controls on motion pic

Gulf Oil OF Pennsylvania, Humble and
Lion among the independents were
strong in the oil group. which other

of governors of oil producing States,
showed little disposition to express this
sentiment in actual commitments.
Miscellaneous Issues.
In the high priced miscellaneous is

the advance and sold around the best

the Chicago market and the invest

1t is expected that application for list
ing on the Stock Exchange will be made
by one or two of these concerns shortly.

ATTORNEY FOR STATE OR FOR THE DEFENSE?-

The Herald has been enlightened by County Attorney
Grant Blackwell as to why the man who took the car from the
kienast Motor Companys garage without permission OF the
owner, was released by his order. The case, he says, was a
weak one and Mr.. Kienast Fused to sign a complaint.
We freely admit that tn case was a weak one, for
any case where the party arrested does not plead guilty is
very weak in Sheridan count y. =
Strange things have hapI ened in this neck of the prairie
and have happened SO often hat the public is not surprised
when anything startling or unusual transpires. But the
strangest proposition that has come to our attention to date is
the county attorney notion O. the duties of his office.
One would think after reading MIR. Bakewells answer to
the Herald last week, that a county attorney is supposed to
serve as lawyer for the defense whenever an arrest is made.
But law enforcement is to serious a matter to be taken
lightly. The apparent unwIlI gness on the part OF the county
attorney to prosecute any case brought before him is a matter
Of grave concern. Passing tie buck" on to Mr.. Kienast
does not excuse Mr.. Blackwell IN the least. If Mr.. Kienast re-
fused to sign the complaint h. should have put in the COM
plant himself.
Another matter coming to our attention this week shows
the regard that The county attorney has tor Justice.
Some time ago two residents OF the Raymond vicinity,
John and Dewey Keller, were arrested on a charge of grain
stealing. They were given taer preliminary hearing before
a Justice and bound over to the coming term OF district court.
This week the county attorney has been hi-tailing around get
ing opinions from various people as to whether or not he
should prosecute the case. giving as an excuse tor his hesten-
cy that several Influential men had asked him to drop the case.
That's very nice, ism t it?
IF the two Kellers are inn ocent or guilty, why should the
opinion of several influential men have any more bearing on
the case than twelve duly Sc ected jurymen, sworn to give
impartial consideration Of the case?
We have been taught to teieve that the county attorney
is elected to enforce the laws Of the state in the county il
which he serves, and that lust e through his office is to be ad-
ministered without fear OF favor. But it apepars that in Sher-
idan county, the prosecuting attorney is supposed to be a sort
of a Punch and Judy puppet who acts only when some one
pulls a string.
Be a man, Blackwell. Stand on your own feet. If you
have no case against the Kelllrs dismiss it. If you have, do
Your duty. That's what Sheridan county asks Of you. And
Sheridan county should have first consideration in the matter.

HOSPITAL DAY, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 81

How often we have heard of maternity cases occurring in
isolated regions of the Northwest where the mother and child
were lost because a blizzard or impossible roads prevented the
doctor from answering the call for assistance.
Such things have happened in Sheridan county, but not
for years, for Plentywood has a hospital where the expectant
mother may go and receive proper treatment and care.
Many times you have heard of some unfortunate person
dying in the squalor Of a one-room shack, who could have
been saved with just a little proper care. Such a circumstance
is entirely unnecessary in Sheridan county because we have
a hospital
Many are the times you have heard Of victims Of some
accident such as gunshot wounds dying from infection be-
cause there was no place where first aid and proper treatment
were available.
Consider the number of cases treated in the Sheridan
Memorial Hospital during the past year in which the patient
would have Jared i'll if there were no hospital near, and you
will understand and appreciate more the great work this wor-
thy institution is accomplishing.
Give the hospital your moral and financial assistance at
the Sheridan Memorial Day observances at the FarmerLabor
Temple next Thursday afternoon and evening.
You may have, in the past, had occasion to avail your
will appreciate its good offices and give accordingly.
You may never have had occasion to enter a hospital. If
such be the case, be thankful and give.
In any event, whatever you give will accrue to the public
good. Attending the Hospital Day celebration at the Farmer
Labor Temple will enable you to do another good deed toward
your fellow men-and you are assured your moneys worth
of entertainment besides.

PIONEERS OBSERVE
 ARM1sTIcE DAY

The Pioneers observed Armistiee Day with a program following their regular meeting last Monday night. It was first planned to have the social part of the evening con fined to the Pioneer membership, but outside help was so freely giv- en that it was thrown open to visi- tors. The announcement of the change was made too late for it to become generally known and con- sequently not many visitors were present.
 The program opened with selec- tions by the Boys Band, under the able direction of Carl Arola. AL len Seegar's "A Rendezvous With Death" was read by H. D. Camp bell followed by "A Rendezvous With Life," sequel appropriate to Armistice Day, prepared by H. P. Corser. Miss Valborg Brunsvold then sang "The Trumpeter". She was accompanied by Miss Kathryn Seelye on the piano.
 The address of the evening was made by Staff Captain J. Acton who visited the battle fields of France at the close of the world war. His talk was very interest ing. His plea was for all, both old and young, to work for perpetual peace. He said that this could be brought about only by the practice of real forgiveness and illustrated by giving an incident in one of the battered cathedrals of Belgium. A priest was leading in worship. They were repeating the Lords Prayer. They came to "as we for give our debtors" Here the peo- pie halted. The priest began again. The people halted and did not con- tinue until King Albert appeared and joined in the prayer. This was an illustration of what forgiveness is.
 Following the program MT. Hen ry Dannenberg entertained in the dining room with an abundance of good eats.
