the blast.
The explosion rocked the tavern,

parked A dance, sponsored by the
Young Democrats club of Sheridan
county, was in progress.
A short intermission had been
called in the dancing at the tavern
when the blast occurred, but most
of the jewellers were inside when the
explosive shattered the car. The ter
rife conclusion shook persons stand
ing in the building and the force of
the blast ~dislodged wood knots on
the inside.
Lorenz was blown half out the
door, staggered to the back of the
car and then fell to the ground. Mel
Their he nor Miss Jensen were rem
dered unconscious by the blast.
Miss Jensen was released from
the hospital Sunday, and the same
day, following emergency treat

suited. Last night Wednesday, at

DYNAMITES AUTO, NJURNG TWO


One of the most heinous crimes ever committed in
Sheridan county was perpetrated Saturday night when an
explosive placed in the car of a county Resettlement officer
resulted in probably manning for life one person and seri-
ously injuring another.
The atrocity of the crime can only be realized-not by
the number or seriousness of the injured-butb by the mirac-
ulous escape of death to the two unfortunate victims and
serious if not fatal! injury to several others.
Such a dastardly plot could only be conceived in the
mind of one who has lost all sense of respect for the lives
of others, or a maniac; it could only be carried out by a
seasoned and hardened criminal or a mailman.
AS hundreds of incensed citizens from this and many
and other counties viewed the wrecked car after the muir
derous atrocity, there could be no doubt that on slight pro-
vocation the largest posse ever known here could be formed
on a moments notice to engage in a manhunt that might
track the ~cowardly hend to his lair.
Two prayers are on the lips of every decent and self
respecting citizen of our community today-that Robert
Lorenz will fully recover, and that his assailant will be ap-
pretended and placed where others may be safe from his
nefarious plots.

HERE UNTIL PROBE is
COMPLETED

No statements have been issued
from the county %coroner's office on
findings in an Investigation being
conducted from the discovery OF

so to 40 years of age at the time of
death and were uncovered by work
men on a road grading job.
The investigation is continuing

the c%oroner's office within a week.
Files of missing persons in this
territory are under inspection in an

AS record-breaKihg rainfall was

a major crop disaster, the equal OF
which has probably never been
known.
AS the rainless skies continued
and high winds ove the past week
end whipped clouds of dust over
barren fields. of greatest concern
vas rapidly disappearing hope ever
for feed sufficient to provide susten-
ance for the scattering herds of cat
tie and milk cows. Farmers were
pretty well agreed that unless rain
came during the next week or ten
days, and in abundant quantities,
there would be practically no vegi-
tation left for livestock except in the
few ravines and draws where some
moisture had accumulated from
springs or winter SHOWS and had
kept grass alive.
AS United States Senator B. X,
Wheeler made a personal survey OF
north Montana, driving from Great
Falls to Culbertson, he declared con-
ditions were practically the same all
the distance and that he had never
known a worse condition for the
farmers of northern Montana"
The amazing aspect of the whole
crop situation seemed to be that,
even in the face of such dryness,
some wheat fields still showed signs
of life and with that never-give-uI
spirit, farmers were saying might
still make something" But, they
were careful to add, cit would take
lots of rain"

HALT VOTING
RECORD FIRE
INJUNCTION GRANTED AND STAY
Is IN FORCE IN SHERIDAN
COUNTY

Judge S. e. Paul Saturday grant
ed a Sheridan county taxpayer a
temporary restraining order prohib-
ting the burning of voting records
which were ordered destroyed by
the last legislative assembly.
The order to show cause and the
restraining order hearing will be
held June 81 at which counsel can
be heard why an injunction pen
dente litem should not be granted as
prayed for in the complaint"
Montana clerk and recorders were
instructed by law to burn all voting
indexes and voting records the first
week in June.
The complaint reveals that petit
tions for a referendum upon two or
more laws enacted by the legislative
assembly have been and are being
circulated in Sheridan county; that
the said petitions have not been
completed until some date later than
June g."
Montana law states that referen-
dunn petitions must be checked by
the county clerk, comparing them
with registration records in his Of
fee wherein are registered the le-
gal voters.
Destruction of records would, 1t Is
stated, prevent presentation of refer
endum petitions. inasmuch as they
could not be certified.
House bill SIS, dubbed the Hitler
bill'' and Senate bill II. relating to
the sale, control and regulation of
alcoholic liquor and beer in the
state, are measures IN which refer
endum petitions are now being cir
culated.

HANS ANDERSEN,
RESERVE CITIZEN,
FATALLY INJURED
Dies Here from Brain Concus.
sion Received
Saturday

injuries received when a garage
door from a gust of wind threw him
to the ground, proved fatal to Hans
Andersen, 83, highly respected cit
iEen of Reserve and resident of this
county since 1912.
The aged man died Saturday eve
ming from a brain conclusion, the
result OF the mishap a few hours af-
ter he had been brought to Plenty
wood for observation. Before his
death he had lapsed into uncon-
seriousness.
Mr.. Andersen planned to attend
Danish festivities at the Danish hall
at Dagmar that day and together
with a friend had gone to the garage
to drive out the ar. He had been
looking forward for the day of the
festivities, friends said.
While holding the door open, a
gust of wind violently blew the
door and he was thrown to the
ground. At first he appeared unin-
jured and was able to walk to the
house. Later it was revealed that his
injuries were of a serious nature and
he was then rushed to Plentywood.
Wednesday funeral services were
held from the Dagmar Lutheran
church with the Rev. al. Mikkelsen
officiating. Burial was made at the
Dagmar cemetery. Many attended
the last rites.
Native Of Denmark
Hans Andersen was a native of
Denmark, born there March IA,
1854. While a resident of that III
try he married Kristine Hansen and
a few years later came to America.
They lived near Iarimore, N. D., %
years and in 1912 came to Sheridan
county where Mr.. Andersen pur-
chased land in the Dagmar COM
munity.
In 1928 his devoted wife passed
away at Reserve where they had
moved, having retired from active
farming a number of years ago. Re-
serve has been his home since that
time.
He leaves to mourn his tragic
passing, four sons. Anton, Carna-
ton, Wash; George of Poison, John
of Dagmar and Andrew of Larimore,
N. D., and a daughter, Mrs. Theo.
Hansen of Plentywood.
Hans Andersen was a highly re-
spected citizen of the community in
which he lived and friends and long
time acquaintance today mourned
his ~tragic passing.

Local License Bureau
Gets Much Trade from
Neighboring Province

Fifteen marriage licenses were
issued from the county marriage IL
cense bureau in May, and approxim-
ately half of the licenses issued were
to Canadian residents.
The Sheridan county bureau Is
sues many permits to wed to Cana
dian couples, and within the past
two years a general increase in Can
adam permits has been noted here.
Canada has a law which makes II
necessary for couples to post a sew
en- day "notice of intention to we'd
and they must also have a medical
certificate.
Canadian couples apparently re-
SEN the marriage laws and when
opportunity permits, cross the Dor
der into Montana to be joined in
wedlock.
A marriage license certificate in
Saskatchewan costs IS as compared
to Montana's 50 fee.

it was decided by a vote of the club
Wednesday. The club had previously
gone Oh record as favoring a plan to

With conditions unfavorable 1t

when funds could be diverted to
channels where more good could be
accomplished.
Later in the season, 1t was sug-
gested that the club sponsor a far
