about two months airo. when hnth Z7Z
iru'tten with love for Maria. Antonis,
unaware that his friend was also a
suitor, showed Sam some letters which
lie had received from Maria, with the
result that the ire of Sam was aroused,
and he asked Tony what he meant by
horning in on the affair. This natural
ly aroused hard feeling and the affair
ran alone- until last Fridav. when
Tony invited Sam outside to talk the
matter over.
The two lovers proceeded outride,
ana irom mere on the stones differ.
Sam, who carries a bal cut under the
light eye, maintains that he received
it at the opening of hostilities, while
Tony exhibited some welts on top of
.nis neau, which he claims he received
from a bar in the hands of Sam, this
being the first he knew that the war
was on. The battle was undoubtedly
en, though, and Tony carved Sam up
in quite a workmanlike fashion. In
the act of said carving, Tony received
a few more clouts from Sam's iron
rod. The rod was bent in the middle,
it being perfectly straight before Tony
had destroyed its perfection with his
bead. i.- -

be somewhat slim. Due to Tony's rec
ord, his bond or the charge against
him may be reduced. The possible re
duction in the charge might be to make
it assault and battery, which would
make the case merely a misdemeanor,
and not a felony, and it would be tried
in the county court rather than the
district court.
Whether the battle has had any ef
fect on the senorita's affections is not
known, but from the best available
reports she had repeatedly spurned
both of the lovers, which makes the
battle for her hand somewhat prema
ture and presuming. Both of the
Mexicans are young and with a certain
amount of pulchritude, although neith
er would get far in the movies in com
petition with Wallace Reid or Rodolph
Valentino.
The hearing wa3 enlivened with a
few little incidents, one of which was
that Sam objected to the interpreter.
When asked his reason he said that
the interpreter had stolen a ham from
him, and that for this reason the two
were not on the best of terms. He was
afraid that he might be double-crossed.
As he can speak good English if he so
desires, his objection was not take
seriously.

Dr. J. M. Simpson, veterinary of this
city, was recently called to Morrill

Without much delay he located the
ie located the '
cause by the discovery on the range of
Zigadenus, otherwise known as the
death camas.
The plant that caused the havoc in
Morrill county is perhaps a foot -in
height, with long, thin green leaves,
and a cluster of small white flowers.
The lower portion of it greatly resem
bles an ordinary onion. In fact, the
resmblance is so close that children
are said to sometimes mistake the
plants for white onions, and eat them
with fatal results.
Thousands of sheep die yearly in
some of the western states from eating
zigadenus, but this is the first time,
according to Dr. Simpson, that it has
been discovered in western Nebraska.
Dr. Simpson has made a somewhat ex
tensive study of poisonous plants, and
was able to spot the zigadenus upon
sight.

ly, Mr. Gurley said, to the safety first
movement.
The scope of the movement has
broadened greatly since it was started,
the speaker said. Originally, it was
little more than a collection of sug
gestions for precautions that might
reduce accidents. He told of a number
of suggestions which had been adopted.
In these days, the idea is not alone to
make the science of railroudine fool

proof, but also to teach the employes
to keep their heads while engaged in
dangerous work. A railroader mav do
even some kinds of dangerous work
without accident, provided he keeps his
eyes open and does not allow his atten
tion to be distracted. He illustrated:

ment by saying that if it had not been !

accidents save one the railway cross-. months aa the representative of the
ing accidents.
Rail w, rroattin: AfriUnf
While there has been a marked dim
inution in other classes of accidents,
the railwav crossinar accidents have
increased to a marked degree. The fig-
ures for 1920 show more than a 600 j
per cent increase over those for 1907.
This is .due not only to the srreatly in
crossing, but this is a monumental
task. Mr. Gurley said that there arc
now some 250,000 crossings in the
United States, ami that the past year
but 400 of them were eliminated. At
this rate of progress it will take sev
eral hundred years to accomplish this
result. The expense is a most impor
tant item.
The railroads of the country have
united in a three months campaign to
reduce accidents. Posters, newspapers
ami other publicity mediums will be
used. If the drive is as successful with
the public as safety hrst campaigns
have been with railway employes, the
heavy percentage oi iaiaimes irom
this cause is expected to be materially
reduced. At present, the figures show
that every three minutes, on the aver
age, there is a death at a railway
crossing.
Definite word has been received
from Mrs. Emily Homberger, chief of
the Nebraska department of child wel
fare, that she will visit Alliance and
make an address in the Roof Garden
on Sunday afternoon, June 11. The
memlers of the Box Butte county wel
fare committee consider that they are
fortunate in securing Mrs. Homberger
for this address. The program will
consist of the address by Mrs. Hom
berger and several music numbers.
The entire program will be published
next week. This will be a great day
and people from all over the county
will be privileged to hear a gifted
speaker.

PREDICTION OF
RACE CONFLICT
EARL G. JONES GAVE ADDRESS
WEDNESDAY EVENING.
Says Moral and Spiritual Progress of
Mankind Has Failed to Keep
race With Material
Earl G. Jones, editorial writer of the
Alliance Times, was the speaker at the
Wednesday dinner of the Rotary club,
and gave- en of the-moot interesting
talks that theMub members have ever
been privileged to hear. Mr. Jones took
for his subject the growing unrest in
China," Japan and other countries
where the colored races predominate,
and the menace to white civilization
that lies in the continued subjugation
of these peoples.
"When we know of the growing un
rest in India and China and Japan
the great reservoir of the world s col
ored races, and realize just what the
full awakening of these giants may
mean to the white race, we get some
little idea of the danger that lies
ahead," said the speaker. "And when
we consider also the other colored
races the browns, the blacks and the
reds and realize that all of these are
possessed with a growing distrust and
to the white race looms still larger.
There are approximately 1,700,000,000
human beings on thn earth today
500,000,000 of those are whites and
the remainder are the colored races.
The white rare is thus outnumbered
more than two to one. Yet the white
man controls politically almost nine
tenths of the world's population, while
the entire white race is concentrated
on less than one-fifth of the white
world's territorial area. Now what can
it mean when these colored races de-1
mand of the white man his reasons for
holding on to so much of the world's '
territory wielding political control over
millions of people riot of his own race
or blood?
Growing Restive Under Yoke
"It can mean only one of two things
either the white man must peaceably
relinquish his political control of the
colored peoples or he will eventually
be compelled to do so by force of arm.s.
Already, many of these colored peoples
are growing restive under the white
one and tneir intellectual leaders are
openly demanding that the white man
ret out and leave them to work out
thpir own salvation. And even those
colored nations whirh are not under'
white political control are joining their)
voices with their demands for com-(
plcte relinquishment by the white man
of his stranglehold on the territory
originally belonging to other people.
"Another a.-pe.-t of danger in the
race question is the fact that the col
ored races the yellow.-, the blacks, the
browns and the reds are multiplying
more than twice as fast as the white
race, so that in even a decade from
now the proportion of population be
tween the white and the colored peo
ples will still further augment in
favor of the colored. By a curious
irony of fate the white man himself
has made jHissihle this rapid increase
of the colored peoples. He has put
down tribal wars, stamped out epi
demics, improved communication and
raised the standards of living among
them until the death rate has been
greatly decreased. And these home
lands of the colored people, we must
remember, are already populated up
to the available limiu of subsistence
and such elements as improved agri
cu'ture and the use of modern labor
saving machinery can act only as
