ROBERTS RANCHER
SAYS HE IS ALIVE
DESPITE REPORTS

E. B. Provinse, Red Lodge jus
tice of the peace, said that he had
never before held conversation with
dead man until last Saturday af-
ternoon, when John Forsman of
Roberts walked into his office for
a chat. Two days before that time,
Forsman had been reported as one
of the dead men found beneath a
wrecked Ford car near Lusk, Wyo.
''It said in the papers that l was
dead, and 1 am almost beginning to
believe it myself" said John to Mr..
Provinse, "but after all | am still
alive"
"Or if not, you appear to be"
said Provinse.
Mr.. Forsman later came into the
News office to identify himself as
being still among the living. For
several weeks, he said, he had not
been away from his ranch home
near Roberts, and it was thought
that he had accompanied David Ga
brielson on his unfortunate journey
to Wyoming.
His neighbors had told Coroner
R. G. Martin that he had gone with
Gajbrielson in the Ford car that was
found near Lusk. The description
of Mr.. Forsman and that of the
man killed in Wyoming also CORES
ponded so we'll that it was believed
certain the dead man was Forsman.
Forsman has been, and still is, liv-
ing on the jeff Parker place east
of Roberts.
II don't know who it was that
was riding with David" said John.
81 saw David last week before he
left, but did not go with him. And
my health has been pretty good for
the past week."

the commission, but the nature of
it was not disclosed. 1t is reported
here that an astrologer known as
"Zoro" has been doing a land-of-

1t was intimated that certain per-
sons have been consulting" the

possessed of no super-powers for

ically speaking.

STATE TIMBER LAND
WILL BE REFORESTED

Missoula, Nov. 21.-(AP)-Un-
der the plan of the federal forest
service, 250,000 acres of former
timber land will be reforested in
Montana and northern Idaho.
For this purpose, the Savenac

acres have been planted and pres

BY BEN STERN


THE late Houdini had nothing On
L the prohibition question when
it comes to making escapes from
triple padlocked and iron bound
closets, where the Indiana Demo-
cratic leaders are endeavoring to
keep it moribund and forgotten.
Just as the utter conservatives
had finished congratulating them
selves on muffling its shouts at the
Gary editorial conference, because
noise in the banquet hall prevented
many from hearing the context of
Jouett Shouse's message pleading
for a determined stand on the pro-
tibition question, along comes Clay
Metsker, editor of the Plymouth
Democrat, and helps it make it's
escape.
And Metsker, from the wet
standpoint. picked an ideal time
and spot to demand that the DEM
ocrats take a decided stand on the
question.
Five hundred prominent state and
local Democrats assembled Thursday
Afternoon at Lake Maxinkuckee for
the Second district rally and pic
mic.
Principal speaker was Congress
man Samuel B. Pettengill of South
Bend, who, although running as a
wet, has, since his election, man
aged to stay off this dangerous
topic. Pettengill's address was an
attack on Hoover, which lacks nov
city and freshness.
Then, without a word of warn
ing, Metsker pitched into the prohi-
bition question, mincing no words as
to what he personally thought about
It and how low in his estimation are
the petty politicians who by side
stepping this issue play fast and
loose with the national welfare to
attain their own selfish ends"
Naturally the Democratic chief
tains present did not like this. And,
according to all reports, their re-
actions were decidedly unpleasant.
But it so happened that Metsker
struck a chord of interest to the
farmers of Indiana when he de-
clared:
ct am certain that the produc-
ers recognize that the men behind
prohibition have slaughtered the
domestic markets in this country
and the ruling party can not show
that prohibition has done anything
for the farmer except ruin his mar
ket also.
Prohibition has little demand for
the farmers corn, rye, grapes, and
barley. We are drifting into de-
spair Mortgages are taking our
savings for years and our industrial
life has been destroyed by lack of
confidence"
If nothing else, Metsker has crys-
tallized what is in the Hoosier farm
er's mind and has advanced one
quite logical solution for the pres
ent economic depression.
From all appearances, the words
are falling into fertile soil-the
question is this: care the party
leaders clever and astute enough to
use it to their advantage"
The answer: How many party
leaders do you know who are clever
and astute?"

HOOVER FACES
new PROBLEM
IN PHILIPPINES
independence Issue Stirred
by Near Retirement of
Governor Davis.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, July 27-Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover has set as one
Of his important tasks in the coming
months the problem of adjusting
relations with the Philippine islands
on a more satisfactory basis, it was
learned today.
This appears specifically as a
minor and remote affair, but
actually, Hoover faces one of the
most embarrassing situations in his
term unless he succeeds in finding
a solution of the problem before
congress convenes.
To this end the administration is
trying to persuade the Filipino
leaders to accept General Theodore
Roosevelt as governor. Roosevelt
now is governor of Porto Rico. Fill
pino leaders saw Roosevelt while he
was here recently but were not en-
thusiastic.
Roosevelt Considered
The matter is still under consid-
Grafton as the administration is
hopeful Of eventually persuading
the Filipinos that they would find
Roosevelt a satisfactory successor
to Governor General Dwight Davis
Of Missouri, who wishes to retire
at the end Of the year. The final
decision on Roosevelt may wait I'M
til after Patrick j. Hurley, secre-
tary Of war, completes an important
mission to the Philippines next
month.
Congress May Intervene
Mr.. Hoover desires to settle the
Philippine independence issue quick
ly because of the political situation.
Unless he does, the new congress
may pass an independence bill
which would place him in a diff
ficult position. He would either have
to veto the bill and be denounced
widely as an imperialist who was
denying f-government to the
Filipino people or else approve the
measure and give the islands in
dependence, which he believes
would jeopardize their best inter
ests, cut them adrift in the midst
of their serious economic troubles
and be unwise from the American
point Of view as well.
