'IDAHO APPEARS
SAFE FOR G. 0. P.
NOW,MAY CHANGE
BY DAVID LAWRENCI
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
BOISE, Idaho, Sept. 27.—Not that
they love Harding more, or Cox even
less, but they want a change. That
. is the way people who know Idaho’s
political habits analyze the drift to
ward the Republican national tick
et this year. Dissatisfaction and un
rest are due to a variety of reasons,
some of which have nothing to do
with the Wilson cabinet. But, just
the same, the Democratic party will
suffer because a Democratic admin
istration happened to be in power
when these ills and irritations camo
upon the land.
’’They will not be voting one rr-;■>
and one party out,” said a Rep
can editor privately. “And t. e <
haven’t any particular promise tli
the next administration will be any
better, but they want to turn back.
V.'e will have to educate them up
afterwards to understand that they
have chosen rightly, and we hope
that events will justify their votes.”
The foregoing opinion indicates
that Senator Harding is by no
means popular in this stronghold of
Senator Borah, but that the Repub
lican party is. Moreover, Senator
Borah made about twenty speeches
in this state against the League of
Nations and all factions of the Re
publican party are united behind
that doctrine.
Clean-Cut Fight
So it is a clean-cut fight between
those who favor some league and
tnese who favor no league. Senator
Nugent, the Democratic candidate
for re-election, voted every time he
could to ratify the treaty of Ver
sailles. He voted for it without res
ervations and with interpretative
reservations and he voted for the
Lodge reservations. He made his
record on the principle of a League
of Nations, and took every oppor
tunity to try to get America to join.
The press of the state is predom
inantly Republican. Out of about
14t> publications only twenty are
Democratic and four or five inde
pendent. The bulk of the newspa
pers are against the league and be
hind Senator Borah.
Nevertheless, Senator Nugent Is
confident that when the Democrats
get their organization perfected thej’
will be able to swing the state to
Cox. Nugent himself will run far
ahead of the presidential ticket and
unless there is a landslide for Hard
ing even Republicans concede that
hn has a good chance to win the
senatorial race again.
May Help Cox
He defeated two years ago, for the
short term, the same man who is
running against him now. Practi
cally the same influences are lined
up on both sides. The Non-Partisan
league has withdrawn its candidate
from the senatorial race and in
dorsed Nugent. This strengthens
the latter very much and the Demo
crats think it also helps the presi
dential ticket.
To this the Republicans answet
that the Non-Partisan league vote
consists largely of farmers, who are
Republican on presidential issues.
The Non-Partisan league newspa
pers openly declare they will not
take sides in the presidential con
test.
So it would appear that as a
league the Non-Partisan membership
will be left to its own devices and
the bulk of its vote is Republican
for agricultural reasons. Similarly,
the Mormon church membership,
which is the other large factor in
Idaho’s situation, is not being in
structed in this state on how to
vote. The leaders of the church in
Utah, who are for the League of Na
tions, kept hands off and, unless
something unforeseen occurs, the
Mormons who have been impressed
in Idaho bj the Borah argument will
vote the Republican ticket.
Next Few Weeks Will Tell
As matters stand today, even the
Democrats are not over-sanguine,
though they admit they have an up
hill fight and that it all depends upon
the effectiveness in the next few
weeks of the speakers and organiz
ers who are just being put into the
race. The Mormon elders and the
Non-Partisan league leaders could
swing the state to Cox without any
trouble, but there is no sign of
extraordinary interest on their part
in the success of the Democratic
presidential nominee.
The Republican papers have, fed
the people practically the Borah
argument and nothing else, and the
people in sections have been
led to believe, for example, that the
League of Nations means America
must di® into her pockets to pay
Europe’s bills.
Governor Cox made a fine impres
sion. People liked his campaigning.
They applauded him enthusiastically
and gave him a reception that was
termed by a leading Republican as
“magnificent.” But the effect of the
Cox speech was to hold wavering
Democrats and proselyte scattering
votes.
Inclined to G. O. F.
All the straw votes taken in this
vicinity show Harding to be much
stronger than Cox. The most con
servative estimate in Republican
quarters is a majority for Harding
of 14,000, which wati about what
President Wilson got four years ago.
Among the Democrats, the esti
mate of a few thousand majority for
Cox indicates how closely fought
they hope the contest will be. Sen
ator Borah has finished campaign
ing here, but will come back if his
friends think the state is in danger.
They haven’t sent for him yet, and
say they will let the east have him.
The state of Idaho would cast its
electoral vote for Harding by a large
majority if the election were held
this week. As with other states, un
less some sensational development
occurs to switch public sentiment
everywhere throughout the country,
the result will be unchanged on No
vember 2. Idaho is inclined to be
Republican.

POLICE INTERRUPT
CHINESE TONG
MONDAY NIGHT
Some twenty or thirty Chinamen,
grouped about fan tan tables or ly
ing on couches improvised fi;om
boards and carpenters’ “horses” had
their "tong meeting” interrupted
Monday night by Federal Officers Y.
T. Allen, C. E. Miller and W. J.
Drautzburg. One of them, Lee Mon,
was placed under arrest on the
charge of opium smoking and opium
pipe and various paraphernalia were
confiscated.
Lee Mon was not ready for his
preliminary hearing Tuesday morn
ing. He wanted moYe time, which
was granted him, and his friends are
preparing to go before United States
Commissioner Colquitt Carter to ex
plain that the tong meeting was a
perfectly respectable affair and that
the lodge hall in the rear of 21
Peters street is far from being a
regular Pacific coast fan tan and
hop joint, as the officers claim it to
be.
“Lee Mon.” said one of the China
man's friends. "Le Mon all right.
Some men smoke so long must have
it. This was just a meeting of the
On Long Tong.” * x.
Officer, Drautzburg was in the tong
room minutes before anyone there
knew of his presence. He folded his
arms and surveyed the scene before
him —Chinamen playing fan tan;
long tables where one was quietly
puffing as he watched the game
through a haze of smoke. Suddenly
one of the looked up and
shouted "Muck Hi,” which is Chi
nese for “Police.” The rest of the
Chinamen gave one glance at the of
ficer and quietly continued their
games. It is the psychology of the
Chinamen, says Mr. Drautzburg, not
to run raided.
"Lee Mon.” said the officers, "was
calmly hitting his pipe. On the
regulation stand near his couch
stood the regulation peanut oil lamp
for cooking the opium. There was
a yen hock, which is a needle for
picking up the ‘pill;’ a yen shee gow
for scraping the pipe bowl and tin
upon tin and toy upon toy of opium
itself.”
Lee Mon Is scheduled to stand trial
Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday
morning.
Benning Land Suits
, Heard in Columbus
COLUMBUS, Ga.. Sept. 28.—With
Judge Samuel Sibley presiding, a
special session of the federal court
for this district is being held in Co
lumbus this week to determine Ben
ning land dispute cases—some fifty
in number —and it is expected that
they will be finally disposed of at this
time.
About ten cases were passed on
Monday afternoon and others were
up today. The total number of acres
involved is a little over 900, and the
lands have been appraised at around
$13,000.
At least two more days will be re
ouired in disposing of the cases.
elusive gymnasium for women in
York city declares that jump
ing and leaping is the best ex
ercise women can take.
“It’s foolish to think that this
should not be leap year athletical
ly for women as well as other
wise,” says she. “Jumping is
beneficial in every way. It
strengthens a woman’s spine and
her back muscles, both of which
need strength more than any
other part of the body.”
CLOTHIERS WILL
SELL GOODS ON
CLOSERMARGINS
Narrower margins of profit to the
clothing retailer, and consequently
lower prices on clothing to the con
sumer, was the cheering suggestion
brought back from the recent con
vention of the National Retail Cloth
iers in Chicago by Morris Eiseman,
national representative of Georgia,
who, with a large delegation, repre
sented this state at that important
meeting.
Mr. Eiseman, after conferring with
the principal clothing manufacturers
in the United States, is of the
opinion that the "peak’’ of high
prices has been reached.
Industrial Plants
In Italy Have Been
Returned to Owners
27.—Industrial
vvhich had been occupied bv
workmeh, were returned to the own
ers today Before evacuating the
works, the men filled trenches, which
had been dug around them, removed
barbed wire entanglements, filled up
loop-hoies dug in the walls and when
they left carried with them their
arms and ammunition, which were
concealed in private homes.
Owners of plants report that, after
an inspection, they find there was
a great waste of materials during
the occupation of the works. It is
asserted the men used five times
the amount of coal necessary to run
the plants, and that all reserves are
exhausted. Losses amounting to
2,000,000 lire were caused by a fire
which broke out in a large lace fac
tory which had been occupied. It
is believed the fire was incendiary.
Statistics shown by the local sec
tion of the federation of labor prove
that of 50,000 metal workers in the
city only 36,000 voted during the
referendum by which the men de
cided to return the occupied plants
to their owners. The other 14,000, it
is asserted, were prevented from go
ing to the polls by the violence of
these extremists.
Montenegrins Suffer
Hardships at Hands
Os the Serbian Army
WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.—(8y the
Associated Pre^s.) —Terrible tortures
and hardships were inflicted upon the
Montenegrins by the Serbian army of
occupation, according to an official re
port of a commission of investigation
appointed by the Montenegrin for
eign office after the withdrawal of
the Serbian troops. Copies of the re
port have been transmitted to the
European governments, and one also
is understood to have been submit-'
ted to the state department.
The coinmission charges that
"crimes commitlS'd in Montenegro
were ordered by the Serbian authori
ties and precisely by high officers,
such as General Milosh Misflovitch.

and circumstances attending some
of the alleged atrocities.
Gave Blind Man Piece
Os Newspaper for $1
AMERICUS. Ga.. Sept. 28.—Twelve
months on the chaingang was the
sentence given Henry Otis, alias
Overall Charlie, a negro, in the city
court of AYnericus here Monday.
Overall Charlie is described as the
meanest thief in Georgia, having
passed a worthless piece of newspa
per on Sumter's blind coroner, for a
$1 bill. Coroner Jenkins, on the
stand, readily identified the" paper
passed upon him by the negro, after
passing it between his fingers. At
torney Robert C. Lane, who defend
ed Otis, attempted to confuse the
blind man by handing him other
pieces of paper, but each of these
was quickly rejected as not being
the actual paper passed upon him by
the accused negro.
BOY SCOUTS AID
IN APPREHENDING
ALLEGED BURGLAR
Three Atlanta youths, by the use
oT knowledge gained through their
connection with the Boy Scouts, Sun
day proved themselves good detec
tives, and after city policemen and
others had declared there was no
clue to the identity of a would-be
burglar who entered the home of J. C.
Mellichanip, 525 Piedmont avenue,
took up the chase, and succeeded in
having Jim Owens, colored, lodged in
jail on a ahp.rg» or susß’cloa in con
nection with a burglary.
The youths are Emile Mellichamp,
a second class scout; Charles McCub
bin, a tenderfoot scout, and Henry
Meyers, a second class scout. They
attribute their success to the 'fact
that all scouts are required to learn
how to follow any kind of a trail.
The burglary was committed about
3 o’clock Sunday morning, the burglar
entering the house through a front
window, but before he could secure
any booty Mr. Mellichamp surprised
him and caused him to flee, not until,
however, he had opened fire on Mr.
Mellichamp and had inflicted two
flesh wounds.
Mr. Mellichamp said he was awak
ened by an unusual noise in the
downstairs of his home, and immedi
ately started to investigate. He sa d
he saw the form of a man, evidently
a negro, crouched near a big window
on the side of the house. Mr. Melli
champ declared the negro crashed the
sri-iss with his revolver, and then
Rying him at the head of the stairs,
opened fire and inflicted two wounds
one in the side and the other in his
forehead Neither, however, was
serious.
After wounding Mr. Mellichamp,
the negro jumped through the
smashed window and disappeared in
th The alarm was irnm ? d l at f^’ t
the burglar.
Youths Go on Trail
Sunday morning the three youths
decided to investigate tor themsel
ves. Accordingly, they went to the
snuvshod window and examined
thoroughly. Immediately outside, on
Third street, they found a tiny trail
of blood, evidently caused by a cut
sustained by the burglar when ht
jumped through the window.
They followed the trail which led
them down Third to Myrtle street
up Myrtle and across Ponce de Leon
as far as Linden street, where the
trail doubled back into the backyard
of a home on Ponce de Leon avenue,
and then-made its way down Pied
mont to the corner of Third again
Across the street from the Melli
champ home is the Chatham Court
apartment house, and at the base
ment door the young sleuths discov
ered a pool of blood. This door was
locked, but the boys made their wav
through the house and down into the
basement room, where another pool
of blood was found. The formei
janitor of these apartments, they
learned, was named Jim Owens, but
he had' moved to the Devonshire,
across on Third street, some tim<
ago.
Early Sunday Charles McCubben
one of the boys, had talked with
Jim Owens and he said he notice'
that Owens had a bloody hand.
Later Sunday the three young
sleuths also found a slight blooc
trail from the Chatham Court to the
Devonshire.
Found in Basement ,
Believing Owens guilty the three
boys determined to enter the room
of Owens in the basement of the
Devonshire, where it is said they
found blood on the floor and Owens
with a cut hand, t The police were
then called and at 9:30 Sunday night
Owens was arrested.
Owens said that he cut his finger
on a trash can belonging to apart
ment four of the Devonshire.
In all it took the three young de
tectives twelve hours to complete
their investigation. They were very
modest about their achievement, de
claring that it required only an ap
plication of common sense and some
of the principles taught them by
their scoutmasters.

Great Smuggling System
ll orks Secretly by Night
Running '‘Dry ” Blockade
Mystery descends with night upon
the Detroit river, where it separates
Detroit, Mich., from Windsor, On
tario, on its course from Lake St.
Clair to Lake Erie. Strange lights
flit over its surface. There is the
sound of men’s voices, low pitched.
Comes the ugly cough of a motor
launch. It is stilled and a small
black shadow marks where it rests
on the river. A pencil of light darts
out from the Canadian shore. It
toueues 7?i<. water. It moves ner
vously about till it picks up the
launch and then disappears. The
sharp staccato explosions start again
as the launch gets under way and
moves toward shore. Once more the
light flashes, but it is only for a
second, and is gone. Dim figures may
be seen stealing cautiously from be
hind bushes and tree trunks down to
the river's edge. Few words are
spoken, says the Kansas City Star.
"Is it all right?” some one on tjie
launch cautiously inquires.
“All clear,” comes back the an
swer.
The motor is stopped and there is
a slight rasp as the launch grates
on the gravel of the beach. Quickly
it is loaded with the little cargo of
cases and barrels which gurgle and
click as they are heaved on board.
The figures on shore are again swal
lowed up by the shadows and the
launch glides away. X
There is an occasional low
chuckle from one of its crew. "Pretty
soft,” some one remarks, and his
companions laugh. The booze run
ners are out, and many a Detroit
cellar gone dry will ooze with damp
ness before morning.
The traffile this year is expected
to yield more than $100,000,000
profit. Canadian whisky, bought from
Canadian runners at $29.50 a case, is
sold in the United States for SBS.
Scotch whisky, for which the Cana
dians receive $42, sells on this side
for sllO, and gin increases in value
from $36 to SIOO a case on its jour
ney across the river.
Os course, the Province of Ontario
is supposedly dry, but bona flde resi
dents are permitted to ship in enough
liquor from Quebec, which is wet,
for their own needs. Since the first
of the year these needs have in
creased phenomenally. It is not un
common for a farmer to use up
twenty cases of hard liquor in a
week or a fortnight. One woman.
Who insisted that a shipment of
twenty cases, received only a few
weeks after one of forty cases, was
Golden Revenue From Oil
Gives Texas School Riches
Here is the ideal and unprecedent
ed situation—oil sands under the
schoolhouse yard, plenty of revenue
for all School purposes,' even to pay
adequate teachers’ salaries.
The school board of the little city
•of Breckenridge, in Stephens coun
ty, Texas, where fortunes have and
are being made in the oil business,
now finds itself' in possession of
twelve acres of what is considered
in all probability as being among
the most valuable oil lands in the
United States and from which a rev
enue is expected that will more than
pay for the upkeep of the presnt
school, besides the t erection and
maintenance of a high school and
two additional grade or ward
schools.
Little did the school trustees pf
this little sun baked Texas town fig
ure fifteen years ago, when
purchased the school property on tne
knoll overlooking the countryside
for the sum of S9OO, that it would
some day he worth a fortune. In
fact, the price at that time ap
peared so great these pioneers de
cided to sell a house on the tract for
SIOO to help reduce the cost, '’"'ey
were also confronted with the task
of raising the money with which to
build the school, which they did aft
er months of labor.
However, this did not end the
struggle. Each year the school
fund showed a deficit and it was
only by supreme efforts that the
necessary funds were raised for the
maintenance of the school, at the tax
allowed for educational purposes
was inadequate.

Perfumo Company, Box JI Woodsboro, Maryland
for her own refreshment, told a
magistrate she had drunk the forty
cases at the rate of five quarts a
day. This was considered a pretty
heavy consumption even for a resi
dent of a dry territory, so the -twen
tj>-qases were confiscated.
Reports of all deliveries of booze
in Ontario are made to the dominion
revenue agents by the express com
panies. If any consignee receives
liquor in suspicious quantities, he is
arrested. For the first seven ’’Lnonths
this year fines for bootlegging
amounted to more than $250,000 in
Windsor alone. But it takes nioie
than a fine to frighten off the run
ners. One night’s profits will pay
fines for a year, and most of the
Canadians aiding in the traffic are
protected by their employers, the
"brokers” on this side of the river.
This is the way the "big fellows”
work. Their night’s operations are
finished by 1 o’clock in the morning
and then begins the time of the "lit
tle fellows.” There are hundreds
of these on both sides of the river.
Canadian farmers buy liquor on
their own account and cache it in
their truck gardens. Early in the
morning they are on the shore, hid
ing’ behind bushes and trees, from
which they occasionally dart out and
flash their electric torches toward
the river. A boat puts in and a
messenger steps ashore. He is an
other free lance. His job is to run
the booze across the line and dispose
of it in Michigan. The Canadian
runners gather about him. There is
bickering for a certain number of
cases of a particular brand of whis
ky. The deal is closed. The cargo
is loaded and the boat puts back to
Michigan, where the next day the
runner surreptitiously peddles his
wares among those who want only a
quart, or maybe a case—buyers too
small for the big brokers to bother
with.
The operations of such as these are
responsible for many summer cot
tages along the border being empty.
“My family got so they were fright
ened to death,” one man, who has
closed up his summer home because
of the whisky runners, told the De
troit News.
"These fellows dashing around be
hind trees and cottages reminded
therfi of Indians. It did not fright
en me because I knew most of them;
they are for the most part sons of
farmers; but I had to admit that the
sudden appearance of a man with
a flashlight at the window would
startle almost anyone.
Then came the discovery of oil in
Breckenridge. • When twenty-five
wells had been drilled within city
limits, without one dry hole among
them, the school trustees realized,
beyond a doubt, that they owned
some of the most valuable land in
the country. The school plot is sur
rounded on all sides with wells pro
ducing from four hundred to eight
thousand barrels of oil daily.
“I believe we are on easy street
now,” said C. M. Caldwell, whose
untiring efforts are chiefly respon
sible for the success of the Brecken
ridge school today. “We have leased
the mineral rights for a large fig
ure, and one well is now drilling
with two more to follow shortly. liVe
-believe the driller will get at least
a thousand barrel well, as the loca
tion is the finest in the city, and we
figure our royalty frim uch a pro
ducer would net us about $437 a day,
or about $147000 a month.
“It is our intention to build one
of the njost complete high school
buildings in this part of the country,
the estimated cost to be $230,000.
This with two additional ward or
grade schools, costing SIOO,OOO each,
will be sufficient to care for our
prospective increase ift population.”
At the present time two temporary
structures are under construction,
as the. attendance has increased
from six hundred to fifteen hundred
pupils in the last six months.
“What will you do if you get a
10,000-barrel well on your tract?” an
interviewer asked Mr. Caldwell.
“Build a university,” he smilingly
replied.
FIFTEEN YEARS ■
OF BLACK-DRAUGHT
Black-Draught Highly Rec
ommended by Illinois Man
for Liver and Stomach
Disorders Used It
for Fifteen Years
Singerton, III.—"For fifteen years
we .have used Thedford.’" Black
Draught, and h*&ve not as .yet found
anything that could take its place,”
writes Mr. W. F. Rister, of this town.
“I have used it for indigestion a. num
ber of times, and it gives relief,”
continues Mr. Rister.
"For sour stomach, a heavy, bloat
ed feeling, it is splendid. And when
the liver gets torpid, so that when
you stoop and raise up suddenly you
feel dizzy, a few doses will set you
straight.
“We keep it affd use for constipa
tion and the above troubles, and find
it most satisfactory. I can recom
mend it to others and gladly do so.
For the number of years I have
used Black-Draught now, I ought to
know.”
In its 70 years of usefulness, Thed
ford's Black-Draught has relieved
thousands and thousands of persons
suffering from the results of a dis
ordered liver. And. like Mr. Rister,
many people feel that, after using
Black-Draught nothing can take its
place.
If you haven't tried Black-Draught
get a package today.
Nearly every druggist keeps it. —
