common. In the late summer Sheriff
Phillips raided an Industrial Workers

of contributory negligence and cannot
recover for personal injuries sustained
from a passing train, even though no

This is the opinion of the state su

Another opinion of the court holds
that the right of a private party to
occupy part of a public street in front
of his place of business must yield to
public necessity, or convenience ac
cording to the city council, but such i
council cannot act arbitrarily in the
matter and deny to one citizen what it
grants to another.
The case comes from Saline county
and the opinion of the district court
is affirmed by the supreme court.

1,000 EXPECTED TO
GO TO OMAHA TO
HEAR WILKERSOM
Des Moines, la., July 4. It is not
probable that Attorney General I lav
ner will attempt to stop the mass
meeting announced by Detective N. J.
Wilkerson to be held in Omaha Satur
day evening. It has been announced
that a special train will run from
Villisca and that in all about 1,000
people will go from the towns inter
ested.
The state department of justice,
however, states that any criticism of
officials which Wilkerson may make
in his Omaha speech will be used
against him if he is cited for contempt
of the injunction issued at Red Oak
last Saturday, in which he was re
strained from holding a public meet
ing in that city.
The preliminary hearing on the con
spiracy charge against Wilkerson will
be held Monday at Corning. It is ex
pected that Wilkerson will waive t(
tne grand jury. The attorney
eral's office is now getting its
dence in shape for the hearing.

FOURTH FATALITIES ARE
ONLY FOUR THIS YEAR
Scranton, Pa., July 4. With the ar
rest today of Joseph Graber, an or
ganizer of the International Workers
of the World, charged with being a
spy in the employ of the German gov
ernment, federal authorities declared
their investigation had satisfied them
that recent strikes and agitation of
the Industrial Workers of the World
in the anthracite coal regions had been
stirred up by German agents with
the hope of lessening the power of
the United States in the war by de
creasing coal production. Graber, who
was taken into custody by United
States Marshal James S. McGee, was
held without bail under the alien
enemy act.
"Information in our hands," said
John M. McCourt, assistant United
States district attorney, who has
charge of the investigation, "prove.;
the connection between the organizers
and leaders of the Industrial Workers
of the World movement here ana the
German government. Graber, an or

any Independence day in recent years.
Only four persons killed had been re
ported tonight throughout the coun
try, compared with seven at this time
last year. It was in the number. of
injured that the most notable decrease
occurred, however, only fifty-three
persons being hurt, if early reports
are complete, as against 653 last year.

The judgment of the Douglas coun

company for $12,000.
Jackson sued for $25,000 for in

premature starting of ti street car, the
result of which injured his leg so it
had to be amputated. -The company
appealed on the plea of the non-ap

to show up at the trial who had not
been subpoenaed, and a 'continuance

attacks were twice repelled with the

is a simple attachment to go on Fords (or other cars) to con
vert them into practical tractors.
The price of the attachment is $145 on Fords, much
cheaper than any other similar attachment.
The Pullford will do the work of four horses and does not
eat when it is not working. If you could buy four good
horses for $145 you'd think they were mighty cheap.
For practical work on the average farm the Pullford is the
very best investment the farmer can make.
It will pull your binder, do your plowing, discing, harrow
ing, pull your manure spreader, haul your heavily loaded
wagons to town; in fact, it will do about all the work your
horses will do except planting and cultivating your corn.
The Pullford will pull any load that your two best teams
will pull and do it easy.
We will demonstrate the Pullford in a few days. Watch
the Plattsmouth Journal for the Notice.
Please write or call on us for a demonstration.

Both attacks were made far out on

range of submarine activities. This
is taken to indicate that the German

to have furnished this information to
