Nebraska Angler Makes Dis
covery in Odd Manner
—Sees Fortune
Looming.
O’Neill, Neb., March (Special.)—
When a merchant overaat I-~ike An
des, H. slipped a couple of
ancient and spoiled eggs into an
order he was filling for fishermen at
the great black bass resort last sum
mer he handed one of them a fortune,
unawares. The next day, out on the
big lake, Mike Klrwan, O'Neill
sportsman and naturalist discovered
them, hard boiled. In his lunch basket
and tossed then peeled Into the water.
The big bass were not biting partic
ularly good that day on the wobblers
and fluted halts the fisherman was
using, but as the eggs sank slow'ly
Into the depths two big bass darted
out from their concealment In the
moRs and swallowed them, which is
why Klrwan now Is threatened with
becoming a millionaire. That night
In camp he whittled out a couple of
plugs In the shape of eggs and hung
a couple of treble hooks to each of
them. The next day the bass became
hysterical over the new halt, and
Klrwan caught his limit long before
the other members of the party had
raised a strike. More of the baits
were made for other members of the
party that evening, and later some
for flHhlng parties to the lakes of
Cherry county, and some went south
and west last fall and this winter
with a couple of fishermen In the
more advanced and violent stages.
There the editor of one of the out
door magazines ran across them and
felt called upon to write a story of
their njerlt. Now Klrwan Is kept so
busy making Klrwan Bad Egg plugs
and supplying mall orders for them
that he has found It necessary to set
up a shop and employ several assist
ants.

"It would be no attraction what
ever for me to be the sovereign of a

"I call upon you to account for
the whereabouts of my deceased

TAR FLEW HOME IN
PLANE OF HIS OWN
Saved Up Money and Soared
Over Rocky Mountains to
Colorado Domicile.
Ixmgmont, Colo.—Glenn Arthur
Porter, ex-avlation carpenter’s mate,
second class, of the United States
navy, flew from San Diego, Cal., to
his home here when he was dis
charged from the naval service.
Porter enlisted three years ago at
New Orleans, La., with the intention
of becoming a mechanic in the avia
tion service. He was sent to the.
Great Lakes training station to
undergo first the regular period of
military training, after which he was
given a course at the aviation school.
Porter, however, once ho got into the
aviation game wanted to he more
than a t^phuivic; he wanted to fly for
himself, arid before long he was up
in the air doing all the stunts that
other aviators do. His ability to fly
was soon evident.
After he had learned to fly, Portoi
was still unsatisfied. He wanted to
have an airplane of his own. It
happened that at this time the navy
put some old time planes on sale, and
Porter had been sea-dog enough to
salt away a good chunk of his pay.
The plane he bought was not me
chanically perfect and needed over
hauling. This is where his training
as an aviation mechanic helped. He
repaired the plane himself before he
started on his successful flight.

OWNER OF ADDITION
TO TOWN MAT WITHDRAW
Lincoln, Neb., March 14 (Special).
—Just because there Is a josvoffice.
a church, a school and a sidewalk In
a town constitute no legal reason why
parts of the city that desire to be
segregated and which are not pro
perly city property cannot get a di
vorce, from the town if they want to.
That's what the supreme court says
in deciding that H. M. Edgecombe 1*
entitled to have his addition to the
town of Rulo cut out of the town. The
case was hotly contested, and In -
volved a principle of law of general
application.
The court says that the postoffice
is maintained by the federal govern
ment and not the town; the schools,
by the school district, and the
churches, by voluntary association of
members, and the sidewalks are for
the use of anybody living In the town
or elsewhere. The fact that out
siders are accommodated by them Is
no reason why they must become
residents. The court said that the
claim that the property was given po
lice protection cannot be made good
in face of the fact that the only po
liceman is a town marshal who hadn’t
been called once in forty years to thla
addition.
EMILY HITY
Nebraska Supreme Court Af
firms Conviction of John
Seaton In Otoe
County.
Lincoln, Neb., March Special.)
—An armed man who acts as lookout
for a gang of men engaged in rob
bery of stores Is equally guilty with
those actively despoiling another of
his property, says the supreme court,
ir. affirming the conviction in Otoe
county of John Seaton, It gives him
a little consolation, however, in de
creasing the possible length of his
sentence. When lie committed the
crime the law provided that a con
victed burglar shall serve from one
to 10 years in the state penitentiary.
V\ hen he was sentenced the judge
gave him five years’ minimum under
the law then in force. The supreme
court says this was an error, and
that the minimum should be a year.
This will make him eligible to parole
earlier.

FAMOUS POTASH SUIT
FINALLY ENDED
Lincoln, Neb., March 'Special.)
—The supreme court has ended the
long pending controversy between
Peter J. Long and the estate of John
H. Krause, potash made millionaire.
Long secured a judgment against
Krause for $75,000, claiming that the
latter bought his ranch, which later
was found to contain lakes rich in
petash, without telling him about
their valpe. Later Krause brought
suit to enjoin the collection of the
judgment, claiming Long had secured
it by false and perjured testimony,
that he knew of the existence of pot
ash in the lake waters, had had them
tested and made up his mind they
were too far from the railroads to be
used.
The supreme court says that the
evidence not only warrants but com
pels a Judgment permanently enjoin
ing the collection of the judgment. It
says that Krause had been charged
with criminal acts und was very un
popular among his neighbors, so that
it was not until they realized the
great that had been done him that
they came forward to testify in his
behalf und to disprove Long’s story.

Then Butte Miners Organise*;
Union of Their Own—Radi
cals Tried to Start
Big Strike.
Butte, Mont.—After eight yea*, s
without an organization the 12,000
miners in the Butte district are to
have a union through which they willt
deal with the companies. This is the
result of deliberations that have beers,
going on for several weeks between*
representatives of the mining com
panies and the men at the mines.
Without any organization the men*,
had been getting $4.25 a day. Men.
representing the Industrial Workers^
of the World attempted to start a.
walkout for $6 a day and a six hour
day. It was an absolute fizzle. When
the little breeze created by this effort!
quieted dpwn the companies volun
tarily raised the pay of the men 50'
cents a day.
After that the men working in the?
mines went about organizing a unior*
of their own, totally ignoring the
radicals who had tried to start a.
strike.
Several conferences of the mine
managers and committees from the?
men were held. At one of them the
managers submitted the draft of'
what they considered would be a good
constitution for such an organization^
This the men turned down and pre —
paredi one of their own, which has?
proved aceptable to the managers.
Now the miners are organized into*
what is officially known as the "Butte?
Mine Workers' Independent Union”"
the “independent” part of the title'
meaning that its activities will be?
confined to the Butte district and that
there will be no affiliation with the
miners’ and smeltermen’s organiza
tion which succeeded the old Western*
Federation of Miners.
Reasons for not wishing any con
nection with the international miners’*'
and smeltermen’s organization will be?
found In the virtual extinction of the
old Butte Miners’ union, probably the?
largest and most powerful labor or
ganization in any one locality in the
world in its time. It was dissatis
faction with the management of that
body over the heavy assessments it
was levying on the members of affili
ated bodies that gave the radical ele
ment in the local union the incentive,
to destroy it, which was done in 1914.
It was on June 13 of that year that
the Butte Miners’ Union started to
celebrate its anniversary, as it had?
been doing for years, by a big parade
and a general holiday. The radicals
broke up the parade before it got well’,
started and proceeded to wreck the
union hall, throwing everything out.
on the street, including the safe,
which was carted out of town, broker*
into and looted.
Auer tne excitement had quleteif
down repairs were made to the hail,
and things were going along more or
less smoothly until the night of Octo
ber 23, when Charles H. Moyer, pres
ident of the then Western Federation;
of Miners, came to Butte to straight
en matters out. It was the signal for
ariothcr outbreak.
Moyer and those friendly to hair.,
were barricaded in the miners’ unio.r.
hall. The front of the building was;
destroyed by explosions of dynamite.
Moyer and those with him escaped by
the rear windows. In the rioting one
man was killed and several wounded.
. That was the end of the old miners”
union. The men who brought about
its demise formed another unijn. and!
they practically ran the town and the
district for more than two months
The law was defied and the law offi
cers helpless. Finally the governor
sent in the national guard and the dis
trict had peace. But while the min
ers had formerly worked under the
protection of their big union they now
worked without any organization.
So for eight years the curious spec
tacle has been presented of the big
gest mining camp in the world Work
ing with men unorganized in it* un
derground and surface labor, while
eyery othev line ov industry about the
mining properties was running under
agreements with labor organizations..
With the new independent miners'
union, every class of labor in the dis
trict will once more be organized.
