Driver AhandOnS Auto
 When Grabeck and Hergstrom finally extricated the machine from the live electric wires Meyers was di- rected to drive his cab out Of dan ger. In his excitement he drove directly into the wire again and the trouble was on anew. Thinking that the sparks emanating from the wire might ignite the gas in the tank, Grabeck said, he shouted to the man to jump, which he did.
 Traffic was exceptionally heavy for this time Of night and Grabeck stated that several drivers of auto- mobiles barely escaped injury when they persisted in dsobeying the fashhght signals which were dis played by him and Hergstrom. One driver in particular whose name the policeman did not learn, drove with in inches Of the wire before he stop ped his machine.
 Finds Man On sidewalk
 A rather singular sidelight to the story is told by Sullivan. He said that he was driving east on West Main street toward the center of the city about 2:l5 a. m., and when he had reached q point almost directly opposite the spot where the taxi in which he was riding became en- tangled over an hour later he mo- ticed the form Of a man lying on the north sidewalk, partly propped on his hands and knees. Stopping his auto he went to the spot and recognized the man as James Gavin, proprietor of the Bassett hotel at Main and Myrtle streets. His head was on the sidewalk and was en- clrcled by q pool of blood and he was in a semi-conscious condition Sullivan stated. Picking him up and

getting him on his feet he stated aroused from his apparent dazed condition. He was bleeding and his face was covered with blood. Put ting him into his cab he took him to the hotel. There Gavin regained his senses but was unable to say just what had caused his plight.
 Thinks He Was Blackjacked
 Gavin today said that he was re- turning to the hotel after visit in the western section of the city and recalls nothing after he had reached the north sidewalk on West Main street just opposite the church at the corner of West Main and Rus sell streets.
 He has d badly discolored right eye, two fingers on his left hand are badly split and he bears an ugly laceration on his chin. He stated that he does not remember any thing after having crossed the street but thinks that he was struck with a blackjack.
 shortly after having lodged Gavin at the hotel Sullivan decided to put his taxi in the Boloin garage and was being driven to his home in one of the Yellow cabs when the tangle with the wire happened.
 Any feeling that might tend to link Mir. Gavin's experience with the falling wire seems to be dispelled by Policeman Grabecks story that the wire did not break untilexactly 3:30 d. m. He told the Herald that he had passed the point where Gavin was found at 2:4O a. m. on his way to the police box at Lincoln street and saw nothing at that time that would indicate that the wire was down.
 A call to the Connecticut Co. office on Chestnut street notifying the of the trouble elcited the that there was no one there who could respond
 It was later learned that the mon from the company's barns did not arrive on the scene until 4;50 o'clock it is said.

kIDAY, DECEMBER Is, 1880.


Every effort has been made for long time in
order TO kill The Producers News. Main street pa
rers have kept up wall about the farmers paper
going out of business. Plentywood business peo-
ple whose motto is: keep your money at home!"
have spent theirs advertising in Wolf Point and
advertising in paper owned by shady characters
living in other counties and edited by some half
wit, who is staying out of Jail only because he
paid back money he had stolen.
All this propaganda together with the Hoover
prosperity and SOC wheat has had its effect on
The Producers News. We have had our troubles,
few have burned up lot of gasoline and worked
night and day to save the paper, but we have pro-
iuced results-we are over the crisis.
| have been appointed business manager of the
Producers News and l know what | am talking
about when l make the statement that, "THE
PRODUCERS NEWS is NOT GOING OUT OF
BUSINESS"
Friends: This does not mean that everythong is
fine and dandy and that you can lay down and go
to sleep. We need your support more than ever.
We have cut help and expenses down to rock bot
TOM We have also cut down the paper In size. We
have not done this because we like to do 1t, but
we simply had 10 do it in order to save the paper
We want The Producers News to become bigger
and better paper than ever before and we want
you to help us make it.
Although our biggest trouble has been settled
in very satisfactory manner, we still have lot
of bills 10 meet but also have some five thous-
and dollars in unpaid subscriptions. When this is
paid our financial troubles will be over. We want
you to do your part, send in your back subscrip-
ton, pay for your paper in advance and get new
subscribers.
Had it not been for The Producers News the ex-
aminers report would never have been published
and you would never have known thing about it..
This is about the only real farmers paper in the
whole United States and the farmers of Sheridan
county should feel proud of 1t. Of all the money
you spend, your subscription for The Producers
News is what brings you the biggest interest.
