All voters are invited to attend the Democratic dinner October 9 and hear the state issues discussed by Mayor Ralph Tucker, Terre Haute, Democratic candidate for Governor. Tucker doesn't pull any punches and he will toll you exactly what he plans to do if elected Governor. He is a forceful speaker and you will be assurred an interesting evening. All county candidates also will be introduced. Tickets for the dinner can be obtained from any county candidate or members es the ’’’Democratic county committee.

Out of city money lenders must certainly be in a grabbing mood to charge the seller of property a fee or discount charge for the privilege of selling property. A real estate operator who sells a property earns a fee by handling all the details connected with such a transaction. Some lender* now are charging the seller an additional 'fed, merely because no law stops them from this “grab.” This “lifting” of a man's money is not done by the legitimate banking organizations of Adams county but by several large insurance companies, which have huge sums of money to Invest The practice is not illegal, but certainly there Should be state and federal laws to curb it

CHAPTER IT “1 DON X uae uie way Ek1 lund’a been acting, and I m going to nave a ahowuown with mm," Kinney promised Stockett. "Another thing. 1 got the truth out ot Oates, though ne didn t intend to let it slip. Apparently he was more than willing to oe caugnt, wmcn sounds uae dou-me-ueaung. Now ne wants out, ana ne uunKs ne naa me tooiea. He’ll try to escape when ms supper is orougut in." He lowered ms voice impressively. "The game * were playing, there's no room tor aoubiecrossers. When he makes ms try, see to it that ne doesn’t get loose. You Know what to do!" ’ “I’M ’tend to it," Stockett agreed. *1 only wish it was Mikinnd l” ? "I’ll handle Eklund,? Kinney promised. “We’ve got to keep mm alive, tor a wnile, because he’s the only medico in this country. Ana we may need turn. ’ Turning back toward town, Kinney was in a somewhat better mood. Dead, Oates would cease to be a menace. And ho d enjoy making a tew things clear to the sawbones. Eklund must have had the wit to perceive that Stockett was jumping him, not on account ot Deever, but as a rebuke from himself. He was getting far too cocky when he failed to heed such warnings. Kinney swung his horse toward the Armingtons' ranch. The girls should be in a more friendly mood today, because of the money he’d given them for candy. He knew how to handle kids—or older folks, when it came to that. But ma patience was wearing thin in a lot of places. To his surprise, the girls seemed more, rather than less, hostile at sight of him. Nor was there any welcome in Narcissa’s strained good morning. Despite that, Kinney was determinedly jovial. “Didn’t you get that candy, yet?” he asked. "Or do you need motoot it to sweeten you upt* “We didn't want any candy,” Fatty said distinctly. “And you don’t heed to come around here any more, tt N&rclsso marries anybody, tt can be ths doctor! We like him!" *» that’s the way of it!" Kinney looked from one to the other, swung his glance across Narcissa’s scarlet face. His own was black. Without another word, he turned, swung into the saddle. But as tie headed his horse toward town, he called back, “Til be back! You can count on that!" Fury boiled in him. It was high time he made several things plain to the medico. Apparently ius

nrst warning hadn’t been enough. But he’d know how to handle that! “I’m a reasonable man," Dott Kinney asserted. “No one could be more so, when you do things my way. It's when people try to buck me that I get riled. And you seem to keep right on doing that, Eklund, despite your agreein’ to work with me," “How do you mean?” Eklund demanded. “I delivered those Jugs ot whiskey. That was the only thing you’ve asked of me." “You know what I’m talking about,” Kinney insisted. “1 made it ciear that 1 aimed to have the Hull girl for myself. When 1 put up a sign, that means for others to keep away. Includin’ you. 1 don’t want you callin' there all the time.” Eklund bad wondered if that was what the trader had in mind, or if he would tip his hand concerning other affairs about which the doctor had begun to wonder. But beneath his wordiness, Kinney was shrewd, accustomed to playing his hand close to his chest “It ain’t too much to ask for what I'm doing for you," Kinney went on. “Makes me fee) kind of like a skunk as tt is, but 1 like you. Doc, and Pm always the sort to give a man a chance. 1 was a Union soldier, same as you were, and a loyal one. By rights, I ought to tell what I know about you, but Pm keepin’ my mouth shut, hint It Wefl. what Tih askin' you to do ain’t too big pay for that is it?** “1 called at the Armingtons' to take a sliver out of Peggy's finger," Eklund pointed out. “Tom asked me to. What is it you want now?" “You going out to take another look at the Indians?" “1 suppose 1 should." “Well, 1 got a couple boxes for you to take along. You better start this evenin'. Only this time it ain’t a gift. The Indians can fay. You get a commission, like promised." There were two wooden boxes, the lids nailed down, which took UP most of the room under the buggy seat, extending back under the brief luggage compartment Kinney himself loaded them in, and Eklund chirruped to the horses. He liked none of this. Physically he was tired, and would have preferred bed. But a patrol nad been belatedly instituted oy the major, following last night’s attempt at gun-running, and it would take a dark night and a tot of skill and luck for a Wagon to sneak across the prairie without betoz sootted and stoDned.

The complaint on account by Paul E. Hammond against Roy B. and Betty E. Friedley has been set for trial without jury Dec. 27 on motion of the plaintiff. Venusd to Well* The complaint for damages by Jack M. Mahan against the Newsom Trucking company, etal, has been venued to Wells county by agreement of the parties. The court has ruled that the venue be completed in 10 days. McConnehey Estate The inheritance tax report for the Willard McConnehey estate has been submitted, showing that the estate value is nil and that no tax is due. Eagles Lodge Plans Open House Saturday Open house will be featured at the Eagles Hall Saturday evening, from 9:30 until 12:30 o’clock. Jeri Lee’s Melody Ramblers will play for dancing. Appearing with the group will be Kenny Austin, “The Hoosier Rambler.’’ and round and square dance caller.

Kinney was assuming that he, as the doctor, particularly the post medical officer, could get past without being searched, and probably he could. It was an act which would make him a virtual criminal. On the other hand, he had small choice. Kinney had made it plain that he’d have no scruples about sending him to his death if he refused to obey orders. The sunset was all about him as he drove out of town. Half an hour later, tn the early dark, he came upon the patrol, who saluted respectfully and did not question him. Eklund drove on. a tight feeling in the pit ot bis stomach. The act itself was bad. What was worse was the notion of supplying the Indians with whiskey— Whiskey? Was that what he earned this trip? Immersed in other thoughts, he had left the loading of the buggy to Kinney, while he got various medicines from tiis office. He pulled up now,. tugged one of the boxes into the | open, and the weight and size of it increased his suspicion. With, some effort, he pried the cover l up, and stared soberly at what J was revealed. Rifles. Which meant that those guns the night before had belonged to Kinney. Since that method of transporting them had failed, and ths post was now alerted, Kinney was resorting to this method. It was an emergency for which he had been preparing from the start. Kinney had taken the restricted size of the buggy into consideration and acted accordingly. Where Oates had been carrying guns tn straw, put together and ready for action, these had been taken down and packed in the cases, each box containing half a dozen rifles. Eklund lifted one out and examined tt with heightened interest. He’d seen such guns before, but none lately. They were the 1860 Indian carbine, generally known as the Plains gun. .60 caliber. The oddity in this instance was that the carbines were net popular in this part of the country. Eklund hadn’t seen a single one since coming to Montana. Besides, these were brand-new, unused weapons, instead ot second-hand stock. Replacing the rifle and fastening down the lid, he drove on more slowly. This confirmed his suspicion that Kinney was supplying the Indians with rifles as well as whiskey, and of the two, guns were infinitely the worse. The question now was what hii own course should be.

Longshore Contract Extends To Nov. 1 Existing Contracts Will Be Extended NEW YORK (UP) — The International Longshoremen’* Assn, and the New York Shipping Assn, sign today an agreement extending their existing labor contracts to Nov. 1. Only remaining possibilities of a strike on Monday was the chance that waterfront employers associations/in Gulf of other Atlantic ports might not accept with the New York group a retroactive pay agreement and the contract extension. Thomas Gleason, general organiser of the ILA Indicated, however, that he had received assurances of agreement by waterfront associations in Boston, Norfolk and New Orleans. The union had said that unless every eastern and Gulf port signed, the agreement would be cancelled. The provisional agreement provids for retroactive payment of any wage or welfare increases that may be agreed upon at later negotiations. Federal and New York City authorities had urged extension of the contracts pending a new waterfront representation election which must be held by Oct. 24. - The ILA faces a challenge by the International Brotherhood of Longshoremen, AFL-CIO, which lost in two previous elections. , Charles T. Douds, director of the national labor relations board, announced that the date Os the election would be revealed today.
