Government Officials From President
Harding Down Doing Best to
Avert the Disaster.
More than half a million railroad
men were Saturday ordered to initiate
a strike October 30, while other unions,
whose membership brings the total to
about 2,000,000, have announced un
officially that they are preparing to
follow suit and make the walkout
.funeral, on the same dates. Under this
program the tieup would be complete,
According to union predictions, by No
verber 3. The hour has been fixed for
6 a. m. October 30, except for one
Texas line, whose trainmen were au
thorized to go out October 22.
The strike was announced following
an overwhelming vote, paid to be up
wards of 90 per cent, favoring a strike
tiecau.se of a 12 per cent wage reduc
tion authorized by the railroad labor
board of July 1, and after it was de-
clared by the association of railway
executives in session Friday that a
further reduction would be sought by
the railroads. It was said that the
.strike decision was made before the
. announcement of this further intended
cut. . Printed instructions as to con
duct of the strike issued in Chicago,
vere dated October 14.

become effective at 6 a. m., standard

Relatives Write the
Chief of Police for
Word of Paul Heise
Chief of Police C. W. Jeffers has re
ceived word from Albert Heiae, Mil
waukee, Wis., asking his aid in locat
ing Paul Heise, whose brother George
is very ill and hopes to see him before
death comes. According to the Mil
waukee man, Paul Heise is supposed
to have purhased a cafe in Alliance
in the early part of the summer.
Paul stayed with us, writes tne
brother, "and worked for me some
time in the early part of the summer.
Just a few days after the Fourth of
July he dressed up and went out as
usual, and that s the last we saw oi
him. He did not take a thing with
him and his clothes are still here. We
thought he might be in Alliance or
that someone there might know
where he is, as he bought a cafe there
just before he came here. He closed
it before he came away, as he says
business was poor."
Chief Jeffers does not know oi tne
man wanted, but is doing his best to
locate him. Heise is said to have an
account in one of the Alliance banks,
and it is thought he may be traced
through it. Those knowing anything
concerning his present location are
asked to pass the news on to tne au
thorities or to the man himself.

Th football team of 1 the Alliance
high school, accompanied by several
automobile loads of rooters, went to
Chadron last Friday afternoon and
when they returned victory was perch
ing on their banners. The Alliance
squad trimmed Coach Crawford's glad
iators to the tune oi ot to u, in a
game which was tolerably one-sided.
Only in the second quarter did the
Chadron team show genuine pep, but
it lasted only a little while..
Garvin was the star for tne Alliance
aggregation, six of the touchdowns
being credited to him, although the
rest of Coach Prince's proteges played
like wildcats. In the first half of the
game the Alliance boys won most of
their points on punts, but in the sec
ond half they used the forward pass
most successfully, completing practi
cally every one they attempted.

Friday of thi week, on the Alliance
gridiron, the high school team will

Care His Name as J. T. Long When
He Purchased Chloroform at
Alliance Drug Company
The body of a young man, aged
somewhere between thirty and thirty
five years, was discovered shortly after
1 o clock Monday afternoon Dy a
chambermaid at the Phillips rooming
house on West Second street. A four
ounce bottle, half full of chloroform,
was found underneath his pillow. City
Physician J. P. Weyrens, who was
c&lled, gave it as his opinion that
the man had committed suicide by
drinking chloroform.
It was discovered that the chloro
form had been purchased at the Alli
ance Drug company on last Friday iy
a man who had given his name as J. T.
Loner. The law requires that iwr-
chasers of chloroform be registered by
the druggist making the sale, but it
is not known that the suicide gave i is
true name. At the time he maMe the
purchase, he declared that he wanted
it for cleaning purposes.
Mrs. J. T. PhilliDR. nroprietiess of
the rooming house, told the authoii-
ties that Long came to the place aucut
6 a. m. Sunday and asked for a room,
telling her that he had been there the
previous night, but the place was
filled. He asked if there was a vacant
room at that hour, saying that he
wished to go to bed immediately. Mrs.
Phillips did not recall that he had been
there previously but assigned him a
room. He told her that he expected to
sleep a long time, and she told l.im
that he would not le disturbed.
The condition of the room and the
bed in which Long died showed that
he had been very sick, but it is i.ot
known whpther this is a result f the
poison that he drunk or a reason for
suicide.
No Relatives Known
' The dead man was unknown in .Alli
ance, although it is believed that he
miy have been employed as potato
picker by some of the farmers near
Alliance. He was dressed in a new
Ruit nf overalls and wore a new cap,
There were no papers or letters in his
rlnthinir to irive a clue to his identily.
He was not without funds, there being
SI 1.09 and a pair of dice in his pock
ets, at well as two packages of gum
and frome cigarette papers.
Thi Biiicide was a man of medium
height, powerfully built, and weighed
somewhere between 175 and 185
He had brown hair. His
hands were those of a laborer, being
well calloused.
The body was taken to the Darling
mortuary. It is probable that it will
be buried some time today. Photo
graphs will be taken and sent to va
rious cities in the hope of establish
ing identification. The theory of the
officers is that the dead man may
have relatives whom he wished to keep
in ifmnvani fit hi death. The fact
that h urn-chased new clothing, and
carefully made away with all mark:;
of identification lends color to the belief.

rni'KTV TREASURER SENDING
BAD NEWS 1U lAM'Aitftf
County Treasurer Irish is this week
mailing out to taxpayers a statement
nt their real and personal taxes, which
are due now and become delinquent
iwmler 1. The increased tax levy
will bring in $30,000 more than last
year on personal taxed alone.
Three Box Butte county men are to
day confined in the county jail, medi
tating over the injustice of a legal
system which has one punishment for
a white man and a different one for
an Indian, when both have been en
gaged in the same sort of lawbreak-
inir. It isn t a particularly pleasant
topic for reflection, but they'll . have
plenty of time to think it over, just
the same, unless tney are more suc
cessful in finding friends than they
were Monday alternoon, when their
cases came to trial before County
Judge Tash.
Saturday nieht the city ponce ar
rested three white men Merle Ellis,
Jack Stewart and Harry C. Iee in
the Indian cump, south of the railroad
tracks. Two of the men were shoot
ing craps with some of the braves who
were inclined to take a chance. The
other wu playing cards a little ses
sion of that famous American game,
draw poker. The men and money were
escorted to the hoosegow, and iaie
Monday afternoon their case came up
in countv court. Judce Tah obliging-
ingly holding court in session in order
to let them know the worst.
The three men pleaded guilty to a
complaint charging them with gam-
Wing for money witn a gnme oi
chance. Judge Tash refreshed his
mind on the provis-.ons of the statute
against gambling, and then, bidding
the prisoners arise, let them have it.
"I ll give you the minimum penal
ty," said His Honor. "One hundred
dollars apiece. Just a second and
I'll fisrure out the costs." I
The three men's faces presented an
interesting study. All the hope had
died out of their eyes. They had
asked ior an early hearing, because
they wanted to get it over. From the
remarks of one of them, it was plain
that the very worst they expected was
sin nnd trimmimrs apiece.
Two men were seated in the court
rooivon tne cheerful side of the rail
ing. "If those men expect to pay your
fmna " Kaiil Judc-e Tash. "now is the
time for them to step forth." The

rn hundred dollars hell."
Rtwrt KDoke un. "Where's the
Indians?" he queried. Judge Tash fa
vored him with a pleasant glance,
"What Indians?" he asked.
"Whir, the Indians who were play
ing with us. They really started the
game. Anyway, they're just as guil
ty as we are. If we get handed a
package like that, what are they go
ing to get? The cops told us they'd
be richt here in court with us.
And then the horrible truth came
r.i-.t. The Indians are not governed by
the same laws as the whites, at least
those who live on the reservation,
Thpv are wards of the government;,
nn.l the last time the ffovernment went
through the formality of making
peace with them, it was so wmieu
in the treaty, or seuieu tw me cuunui
fire, that they were to have their own
.nrt. The cu'iltv Indians will be
luly tried by Judge Iron Crow or tne
Pine Ridge reservation, and he may
ir va them wnaiever ucuony ic

burden this is it! Judge iron L-row

statutes. A couple ot montns ago,

War Between Two Spud
Buyers to Have Hearing
in County Court Nov. 14
Complaint has been filed in county
court by Emit G. Heiwn of Hem
ingford against James Winter of the
same town, charging assault with in
tent to do great bodly injury. The
case was net for hearing in county
court this morning, but Judge Tash, at
the request of the parties concerned,
granted a continuance to November 14.
Both men are potato buyers. Re
ports of the fracas that reached the
officers were to the effect that the
quarrel started following an argument
over the price of spuds. Herman is
said to have purchased a carload at
a price of 10 cents per hundred higher
than Winter had been paying. Winter
offered to bet him a thousand dollars,
it is said, that he would lose $100 in
the sale of the spuds. One thing led
to another, and when the smoke of
battle had cleared away, Herman had
a damaged eye, a few bruises and ac
cording to some reports, a cracked rib.
The argument reached its culmina
tion in front of the Hemingford pool
hall about 6 o'clock last Saturday.
Winter is sai dto have made some
threats against his adversary, but all
this stuff will undoubtedly come out at
the trial. Herman has been a Hem
ingford resident for years, but Winter,
whose home was in Kansas, came here

NeU Nelson of Fairview Is Winner
of Ford Automobile Given
Away by Merchant!
The harvest festival in Allianc
drew thousands of visitors to the city
las Saturday. They started coming
in b'y the automobile load early ia th
morning, and by 10 o'clock, the hoar
set for the opening event on th pro
gram, there was just barely room
enough for the crowds by using both.
Rides of the street and over half of
the pavement. The crowd kept get
ting larger all thetime until 6 o'clock,
when the drawing for the Ford auto
mobile took place at the postoffic
corner at Fourth and Box Butte.
The giving away of the automobile
was the chief feature of the free en
tertainment, although considerable in
terest was manifested in every other
event on the program. The first num
ber called was held by Nels Nelson of
the Fairview neighborhood, who waa
present and claimed the car. Fair
view residents were highly elated, as
was the recipient of the car. It de
veloped that tie did not own a touring
car, although he purchased a truck a
few days previous to the drawing to
haul his potatoes to market.
The program of races and other con
tests was in charge of members of
the local T. P. A. post. . The crowd
was so large that it interfered some
what with the races, although every
one was so good-humored that nobody
seemed to worry about it.
