PRICE FIVE CENTS STEEL PLANTS TO CLOSE DOWN MONDAY PALMER URGE ARMISTICE FOR LABOR TROUBLE Attorney General Declares This Would Permit Period to Present Solution JEWELER OFFERS TO SELL Tells Striking Workmen They Can Have Plant on Easy Payment Plan ‘Freeport, Pa., Sept. 20.—An absolute industrial armistice for six months was urged by Attorney Genera] Palmer here today to permit the solution of economic problems, arising out of the changes brought by the war. Such a period of freedom from unrest, he de- clared, would result soon in increased production which would bring about an era of “easy living and better times for all.” Ou the other hand, the Attor- ney General warned that ‘selfish demands by any one class can not stimulate the national prosperity or, permanently benefit even those obtaining such demands by force. He strongly discountenanced the strikes, “Labor is asking a larger share of the joint product of money and labor and there is much merit in the claim, he said, “but the chances of getting it: is not advanced nor the justice of it more widely recognized by the refusal of labor to produce,” The attorney generals address was delivered at a reunion of the 78. reg- iment of Pennsylvania Volunteers. He said that although many problems be- set men’s mind in these days of recon- struction: there is none which can not de worked out “in the general interest” in a government where the people are the only rulers.

Hansen Says Birds De-| youred His Wheat When He Could Not Shoot Them The first crop of hunting stories | viewing with the ustal run of “un- usual” fishing stories is. beginning to! le in, but the one that'receives the prize for the present season is that of a farmer near Ambrose, N. D. Peter J. Hansen, who has a farm near Ambrose, has filed a claim with) State Auditor Carl Kositzky for $300.° Hansen claims that while he could, not hunt ducks out of season, ducks did not hesitate to forage in his wheat, field before the law permitted the hunt-! ers to bag the winged game’ and the farmers to protect their. wheat fields. So the Ambrose farmer wants the state to refund him $800 which repre- sents the loss he suffered due to hungry ducks. pasturing in his wheat.. fields. He says, in his letter, that he has made a careful estimate of the amount of grain the birds devoured until the law) permitted him to mount guard over his’ bounding acres and he believes that} $300 is a just and correct amount. Four other farmers who aided Han- sen in threshing the grain also, sign the statement saying that Hahsen’s claim is correct. The matter will be referred to the, auditing board Monday’ at its regular meeting and inasmuch ag this is the; first claim of its kind the state has ever received, a8. far as. the records show, no one at the capitol was willing to. predict the outcome of the matter.

Gallagher Is Conceded to Be Very Weak and Witnesses Failed to Offer Testimony of a Serious Nature Beach,’ N, D., Sept? 20-—The sudden termination of the investigation result- ing from charges preferred against Sheriff John Pierzina and State’s At- torney Gallagher, has caused consider- able Speculation among both political factions in this county, and consider- able surprise is expressed on all’ sides at the meagerness and weakness of the testimony produced against the defen- dants, It was conceded that it falls far short of being suflicient to convince any reasonable man that these two of- Is have been guilty of offenses suf- ficient to cause their removal. None of the men who signed the charges against Pierzina and Gallagher were out on the stand and but 2! few of the many charges were attempted to be proved. and these were the least serious of the lot. The utmost good nature prevailed throuout the hearing, there not being a single clash between attorneys to en- liven the proceedings and instead of being a spectacular performance it was one of tamest hearing, Beach has witnessed for many years. ‘There has been no exitement whatever although the proceedings and testimony were thoroughly discussed by farmers and towns people as the case proceeded, and now that it is ended, unless . further proceedings.are held within seven days as stipulated by the attorneys, the rec- ord will go to the governor before whom the attorneys on each! side will appear and present argument within the next fifteen s.

Late Wednesday afternoon the case against. State's Attorney Gallagher was opened by the prosecution. The introduction of evidence was objected to on the ground that the complaint did not state facts suflicient to constitute grounds for removal. Objection over- ruled. TESTIFY ABOUT HOG M. A. Rapaezyk was the first witness sworn. He said that in December, 1918, he lost a hog and that certain parties told him Charles Woodsend and Jay Stark had caught the hog and shut it up; that he had told’ State’s Attorney Gallagher these facts and was in- formed ‘they were not sufficient on which to issue a warrant for the arrest of the accused parties and to inves- tigate further and if possible get more information. About two weeks later he again called on Gallagher in com- pany with Bowen, Miegs, and Rathje when a complaint was sworn out be- fore Justice Plomasen and left with Gallagher to be Served incase enough evidence was secured to warrant an arrest, He had told.
