KeuTcnate Potash Industry.
Under the pending tariff bill in
Congress, a reasonable tariff will be
placed on the iiotash imported from
Germany. If cheap fuel oil could be
eured by the potash plant. the com
tiinHtion of the tariff and cheap luol
might result in their resumption of
jHitash production lrom the western
Nebraska lakes.
Another benefit which might accrue
from the installation of the pipe hnos
through Alliance territory would be
that in cat-e oil is discovered at Lake
side in the well now drilling, h ready
market would be provided for the oil
jiroduced, adding greatly to the vaiue
tf the proiluct. 'khe chief problem in
M newly discovered oil field is that of
jretting the oil to mniket and u pipe
line through or near the newly dis
covered field would be of immense
value.
The preliminary surveying party,
composed of Sinclair engineers, arrived
in Alliance late Tuesday afternoon by
auto, enroute south und east. They
came by way of Harrison, Agate and
Jlcmingford, following the newly open--d
Agnte highway. On their arrival
here, they were immediately taken by
Sccrctaiy Thomas of the chamber of
commerce to Hollland, Anlioch and
Lakeside to view the potash plants
and di.-trict and to inspect tho Lake
side well, as well as to get an idea ot
. thP sandhill countrv which would be
traversed by the pipe lines in case the
linen come through this territory,
which would be the shortest distance.

In order to give our :eopIe an idea
of what this business will mean to the
city, the chamber of commerce has
been doing a little "checking up" on
the business now being realized from
the touri.-ts who now visit cur city,
with astonishing results.
On Wednesday aitcrnoon two auto
loads of tourists from Alliance, O..
stopped over in Alliance, Neb., for
about three hours. They made the trip
up fiom the Lincoln Highway via
ishkosh and Hroadwater over the
C-P-C, ami although their cars were
heavy cars a sedan and a coupe
they 'said that the road from Broad
water to Alliance was not bad travel
and not nearly so bad as some of the
mud thev had'wiggled through farther
east.
During their short stop they visited
garages, tire shops and clothing
stores. A check-up of their purchases
revealed the fact that they had f-pent
over !?K)0 while in the city. That
means .1."j0 that will roll around
Alliance, from till to till and pocket
to pocket, until they have paid $1,000
or more of debts and in purchases of
goods, after which they will probably
journey east to buy more goods to sell
to more tourists ami so on "ad inf.n-itr.m."

lelontous assault to mere assault and
battery. At a hearing held on the
first day of June, the two man were
bound over for trial in district court
under bonds of $500, but something
softened the heart of the county at
torney, who may have remembered his
town courtship days, and the severe
charge wa withdrawn nnd the two
disappointed lovers allowed to plead
iruilty to a lesser offense. Judge Tash
assessed Antonis $100, because he
wemed to be the aggressor. Resides,
,Tony used a knife and Sam, who got
off with a mere fine of $a0, had done
nothing more than wrap an iron bar
around the neck of his rival.

The story of the plight of the two
young men reads like a red hot movie.
Both youths loved Maria, but each
thought the other knew nothing about

Iriends until they discoveied that they

the trouble started. Kvery time Sam

Mr. Newberry placed a .special order
personally with a firm in Chicago on
May 10 in order to hurry it out. We
expected this pipe to arrive by May
25. When it did not come, however,
we began wiring Chicago about it only
tn find it had not been shinned. The
firm then wired us that they would
ship it June 1. We immediately be
gan tracing it on the railway and
could not find it. Yesterday we re
ceived a bill of lading stating that it
was shipped on June 9 just twenty
four days after receiving the rush
order. Mr. Gavin and the men in the
freight department of the Burlington
railway from Chicago to Alliance xjte
doing" air they can to rush tSfs
through and are hoping to have it he re
by Saturday or Monday.. This has de
layed us nearly six weeks in finishing
the well but unless some unforeen
obstruction arises we will make th
our fast order of ba?irec p.r.d it wM
not take long very to finish it. We
have had plenty of water so far tut
these warm days alarm us an 1 July
and August may be our driest months
and we want to get the well cert
pleted before our dry season sets in.
. We are continuing our program of
grading the streets. We have riot f
the streets in good shape out there
are quite a number of them which ori'y
need a small amount of work. We
are hoping to have a rain to I.iy the
dust before we start this work becavse
after ft once is looseneel up if it stays
dry the. streets will become very tlusty.
Everything is moving along in leg
ular order at the cemetery. Things
are in good shape there. Our windmill
gives the usual amount of trouble.
However, we have plenty of water ut
there so far.
