Missouri Man Was
Killed in Runaway
Deceased Had Come Here
For Visit With His
Sons

Injuries sustained in a runaway ac-
cident last Monday proved fatal to
j. w. Tolle, resident of Trenton
Mo-, who came here few days pre-
vious for visit with his sons Glen
and Ollen Tolle, who reside on a
farm in the vicinity Of Antelope.
The accident occurred while Mr..
Tolle and his sons were out on a
hunting expedition. The hunters
were on foot while Mr.. Tolle was
seated on the wagon which at that
time was passing through a narrow
defile in coulee. The team became
frightened and gave sudden start,
upsetting the wagon and hurling Mr..
Tolle up on the steep embankment.
He rolled back and under the wheels
of the wagon, the rig passing over
his breast crushing several ribs and
piercing his lungs.
He was rushed to the house, but
was past all mortal aid when the
doctor arrived.
The body was shipped to his home
in Missouri for burial the following
day.

MARY PALUBICKI
BECOMES BRIDE
OF DONALD CADY
Herald Society Editor Was
Marred Last Tuesday
Morning

The Herald office is a lonesome
place this week. At least it seems
that way to the force remaining on
the job, for we have lost our little
Mary, who for the past several years
has held down the position of society
editor, bookkeeper and all round
pinch hitter on the Herald staff.
Miss Mary Palubicki and Donald
Cady, member Of last years high
school faculty of this city, were mar
ried last Tuesday morning, the cere-
mony being performed by Father
John Regan, pastor of the local CATH
olic church. The contracting couple
were attended by Stanley Palubicki
and Miss Eleanor Palubicki, brother
and sister of the bride.
The ceremony was followed by
nuptial moss, Immediately following
which the wedding party and close
friends were served wedding break
fast at the home of the brides par
ents.
The happy couple left shortly after
ward for honeymoon trip in which
they expect to take a trip through
the lake region Of Minnesota, visiting
relatives and friends en- route and la
ter, while on to their new home at
Laurel, Mont, they expect to visit
Mr.. Cady's parents at Eargle Butte,
South Dakota and the Black Hills.
The bride, who has spent practi-
cally all her life in this community,
was universal favorite among
young and old. She was graduate
of the Plentywood High School and
later atteded the Montana University
later teaching near Raymond and
then taking up newspaper work on
the Herald staff.
The bridegroom is a graduate of
the DIVERSITY of South Dakota and
was instructor in the local high
school last year. This year he has
accepted position Of principal and
athletic coach of the Laurel schools
and it is in this community that they
will make their home.
$50 long Mary. How we hate to
see you 60" But it would be selfish
for us to wish it in any other way.
Good luck little girl, and congratu-
lations Mr.. Cady.

FOREST FIRES THREATEN DESTRUC-
TION OF ENTIRE LAKE REGION
''Scorning the Base Degrees
By Which They Did Ascend'

"Ingratitude is the worlds re-
ward"
In years to come, when the efforts
of the American Temperance League
will have borne fruitition, American
history text books will set forth the
names Of Charles +. Taylor and A. c.
Townley as the men who solved the
liquor problem which has vexed and
perplexed the nation for 10, these
many years while the statesmen
really responsible for it will have
been forgotten.
Few indeed are the men of history
who, having made great discoveries
have been able to profit by them,
either in financial way or in per-
petuating their names to posterity
either on bronze tablets or scrolls of
the nations honored sons.
Such is the fate of the two humble
beginners of the American Temper
ance League, for it was neither A. c..
Townley, nor Charles E. Taylor who
conceived this newborn child Of re-
form, but none other than our hum
ole friends P. J. Wallace and Charley
Huebner.
Huebner, after a couple of ill-fated
encounters with prohibition enforce
nrent agents, had come to the con-
clusion that numerous difficulties be-
set the way of the bootlegger. P. j.
Wallace, who recently has been pro-
noting a colonization scheme in Cal
ifornia that had arrived at that stage
when the enterprise failed to pay
sufficient returns to keep him in food,
rainment and stimulents, was also in
a despondent mood Both, it is re-
lated, were discussing ways and
means that might present themselves
for making an honest living. This

FORD SAYS HE
Will QUIT If
BOOZE RETURNS
Declares He Will Not Be
Bothered With Job Try
ing to Handle Men

New York-Henry Ford threatens
to close down his automobile plants
if prohibition ends.
"If booze ever comes back to the
United States l am through with
manufacturing, he says in the Sep
tember Pictorial Review appearing
Friday.

problem of handling more than 200,-

from them. l wouldn't be interested

oline and booze don't mix.
Ford, always a friend of prohibi-
tion, believes it is 80 per cent effect
i've in the United States, with the
remaining percent made up largely
Of "the wealthy class, the criminal
class and the abandoned class.
Because leading hostesses have
said mo more cocktails on my table"
it is no longer smart to serve drinks
he says.
Regarding his Ian to shut down his
factories "if booze returns" Ford
says
with booze in control we can
count on only two or three effective
days work a week in the factory
and that would destroy the short day
and the five day week which sober
industry has introduced.
"When man drank two or three
days week, industry had to have
10 to 121hour day and six or sew
en-day week. With sobriety the work
ing man can have an eight-hour day
and five-day week with the same
or greater pay.

were around; l wouldn't have accu-
rate workmen, and without accurate
workmen | could not get the neces-
sary precision in work even with ma
chinery, because more people are
making the machinery to make the

Ford says prohibition began al
home with women who wanted better

that if women would uphold the law
in their homes we need bother very
little about other places where tht

Trout Found In Streams
In Scobey Vicinity

Scobey--A few years ago about
10000 trout fry, set here by the
state game department, were planted
in local streams adjacent to Scobey.
The severe winters and shallow wat
ers, it was thought, had killed all of
them off. However, this spring at
least three different parties reported
seeing numerous trout three and four
inches long in the Polar.
1t is also learned THAT others have,
by various methods, caught many of
the trout This should be discourag-
ed. First, it is violation of the
law and secondly, unsportsmanlike.
If the "sooners" will refrain from
fishing the trout now it will not be
many years until the Poplar is well
ssocked with this great game fish,

history making incident occurred in
the wee small hours of one morning
last June.
Huebner, it is reoored, was the first
to conceive of the notion of promot-
ing an organization that would have
as its prime objecting, the modifi-
cation of the Eighteenth Amendment.
The notion pleased him that with
such an organization one could get
Joiners as so much a member, which
would enable the organizer to make
all kinds of easy money and at the
same time help good cause along.
P. j. concurred in the sentiment
with the words of Pythagoras-"Eur-
aka, we have found it,"
Pleased as couple of kids with a
hatfull of pups, they presented the
matter to Charles E. Taylor who al
so waxed enthusiastic over the mat
ter.
Taylor, however, deemed it too
important a matter to be run on a
one-horse scale and sent for A. C.
Townley, whose oil promotion scheme
had about petered out and was look
ing around for other sources of easy
money.
Townley arrived on the scene and
took charge. AS Townley and Tay-
lor increased, it's prime movers de-
creased and before Huebner and P.
}. knew where they were at they
found themselves completely out of
the general scheme of things. Per-
soma non gratia in other words.

Wheat in Plunge
Storage Crowded

Chicago-Wheat prices were nam.
mred down 5 to 6 cents a bushel
Wednesday as word Of acute shortage
Of storage facilitits reached the trad
ing pits.
Decreased demand and improved
weather conditions in the northwest
contributed to the droop in values
and wheat, in some instances, closed
more than 9 cents below Mondays
quotations.
September wheat was quoted at
$1.31 7-8 to $1.32 on the final sale as
against close of $1.37 " to $1.37
7-8 Tuesday. December closed at
$l.40h to $1.40 "a as against 81 ,46
l-8 to $1.46 3-8 Tuesday.
March finished at $146A to 3-8 as
against $151 3-4 to 7-8 Tuesday, and
May closing at $3.50 3-8 to $1.56.
Attention was called to the scar
city Of storage space by the nine
day embargo placed against oats, rye
and barley in Minneapolis and the
northwest terminals and the fact
that favorable weather conditions in
the northwest area have no increased
production that leading markets were
unable to meet storage demands.
All railroads in the northwest
handling grain had announced ap-
proval Of the embargo today with
the exception Of the Minneapolis and
st. Louis road. Officials of that line
had said previously, however, that
they would order the embargo if 9TH
er lines took such action.
Stored supplies of the embargoed
grains and low prices prevailing
made it advisable for farmers to re-
duce the movement Of these crops,
advisory board executives said.
Farmers, the grain trade and the
railroads agreed on the advisability
of the curtailment of shipments.
Officials of the shippers advisory
board said they hoped further embar-
goes might be avoided, although the
movement of grain about Sept. !
will govern the decisions at that
time.
Loading and unloading Of cars at
terminal markets have been delayed
it was pointed out, because of slug.
ish demand for rye, barley and oats
which have been supported in unus-
ually heavy amounts for this time o1
the year. The heavy movement Of
these grains has hampered movement
of wheat, corn and flax for which
there is a more active market.
