GIVEN A
SUSPENDED SENTENCE

Charlie Huebner breezed into Plen-
tywood the other day just in time to
appear before the District Court on
a charge of having sold liquor to
minors. He decided to throw himself
on the mercy Of the court, knowing
full well that that would be the cas-
lest way out of the mess as otherwise
he stood a fair chance of becoming a
boarder in a state supported lnsti-
tuition. He informed the County at
torney that he was willing to plead
guilty, and this was done, whereupon
the Court being informed the Huebner
promised to move away from Sher-
idan County for all times to come,
and that he would make his home In
some other part of the State, imposed
a Jail sentence of n year IN the
County Jail, but required that ne
serve the first twenty days in the
County Jail here, after which he is
to be allowed his liberty on a sus-
pended sentence, which will hang
over his head if he comes back mere
again
Charlie was wise in this matter,
so another ~bootlegger who makes
a living by his wits will not be e
in Plentywood any more.

ent to transact business. County
Agent Ferguson was present at the
morning session and presented the so
called Madsen plan Of getting rid Of

Mr.. D. L. Manning, of Billing, q
representative of the Farmers Union
Terminal Association at st. Paul. Mr..
Manning spoke on Subjects of gen.

JURY FINDS ART
OF "CURES'

E. B. Martin who is alleged to have
been practicing medicine in Plenty
wood without a license, and upon
which charge he was arrested after he
had given a IA year old boy . rub
bling down." and given his father
some salts to give the boy, for which
he charged $1,000, claiming it would
cure the boy, was given a jury trial.
County Attorney Blackwell prosecuted
and Paul Babcock represented the de-
PENDANT. Considerable testimony was
introduced, and after able pleas by
both attorneys the matter went to the
jury who brought in a verdict Of gull
ty and left the punishment to the
Court. This case was tried with
Judge S. E. Paul presiding. 1t oc-
cupied the court during most of Sat
urday.
The announcement of sentence was
deferred until Monday afternoon,
when Attorney Babcock asked for
leniency for his client, stating that
Mr.. Martin was an old man AMI his
health was not such that he could be
confined, and Co. Attorney Blackwell
informed the court that he would not
object to a light penalty but that i'm
asmuch as the mar plead not guilty
in Justice Court and took his chances
in District Court, that he was en-
titled to a more severe penalty than
the minimum fine of $250.00. Judge
Paul thereupon sentenced Mr.. Mar
tin to 80 days in the County Jail but
suspended the sentence on the proviso
that he refrain from practicing med
icing or prescribing cures, and in
addition thereto imposed a fine of
$25O.OO but on application of his at
torney for a stay of 80 days before
this is to be paid, which was not resis-
ted by the County Attorney, and was
likewise granted, providing a bond is
put up to guarantee such payment.

A BREAKS NECK
IN ACCIDENTAL FALL

Jason Cook, we'll known farmer
living about Is miles southwest of
Plentywood was accidently killed at
his home Monday evening. He and
two of his young nephews were out
side of the door of his home and
were scuffling, and in some manner
Mr.. Cook slipped and fell backwards
with his head just outside of the
platform edge and his neck was brok-
en-; death apparently being instan-
~taneous. Mr.. Cook has been a cripple
for many years, caused by a fall, and
which had caused a growth or hunch-
back deformity on his back, and it is
reported his neck has been stiff for
years, and this may have been a con-
tributing cause in bringing about his
death.
Mr.. Cook was a man about as years
of age and was well and favorably
known in his community, and his
death vii be regretted by his many
friends. He was a bachelor and has
two brothers Roy and Jesse Cook,
both residing in the Welliver terri
tory.
DR.. Campbell was called to the
Cook home as Don as word could be
gotten to him and as it was an ac-
cidental death, the coroner did not
hold an inquest.
We understand the funeral and bur
ial will be held at Antelope.

PLAN TO ESTABLISH
PORT AT RAYMOND
Inspector Spends Several Days
In Territory Checking Up
Prospects

A short time ago the Plentywood
Commercial Club took up the matter
of establishing a Customs Office be-
tween Plentywood and the Canadian
boundary line north of Raymond, and
about a week ago an inspector spent
several days in this vicinity checking
up on the matter, and we understand
he has given a favorable report Of es-
tablishing both a U. S. Customs Of
fee as we'll as an immigration office
at Raymond, until suitable quarters
can be built on the boundary line.
The Canadian authorities will also
establish a Customs and immigration
Office Immediately across the bound
airy line so that the travelling public
desiring to cross the boundary line on
the new Regina road that connects
with Plentywood will experience NO
difficulty in obtaining passes Or in
bringing purchases from one country
to the other, as they are now exper-
fencing.
This will mean a tremendous in
crease in the tourist traffic through
Plentywood and towns further south,
as the public will not be obliged to de-
tour through Westby, Whitehall or
Dooley in crossing the line. 1t will
also mean a considerable increase in
sales in our local stores, as many
Canadians will come here to trade
who have been prevented from SO do
ing in the past owing to the long de-
tours for the purpose of paying du-
ties on the goods purchased here.
