Ken nison. manager of the Olive hotel, was arrested here last week on a charge of bootlegging as a result of clever detective work done by Font Hitchcock, a deputy sheriff, w\ho re cently returned to Miles City after a year's absence. Imnmediately after t<Kennison's arrest, a sheriff's van backed up to the hotel and cart(ed away a drayload of contraband booze, said to have been found inl the base ment. Kennison is at liberty under bonds in the sum of $1,00i0. Arrest of Kennison recalls that on the night of Dec. 20, when the lid was officially clamplled dlown on sale of intoxicants in Montana, the Olive hotel bar closed some two hours be fore the stroke of 12, when other thirst emporiums ceased selling drinks, on the plia that the supply was exhausted. It is significant, alto In this connection, that upton several occasions since the state went dry, the sheriff has been called to the hotel, at instance of Kennison; it is said, on complaints of drinking, gatn bling and like improprieties. In each instance, it is saidl. Kennison de clined to push prosecution. It was froillt a roomt in the Olive. hotel that a mob tried to take a Nonpartisan organizer a short time ago. When the organizer tried to call for help the clerk refused to con iect him with central. Pet'lrhaps that basement accounts for the courage of tie mob.

Neiw Y\'ork, March 5.--Six women,. members of the national woman's party. e\re arrested on charges of disorderly conduct a'fter a battle last night \\ith policemen in front of the Metropolitan opera house, where they had intended to stage a demon stration against President Wilson. Soon after Ithev hadi been locked up at the West Thirtieth street station all of them were retl:sed. The release of Ite six women was followed by a fight between a new parade of sutl'iragists a nd a mob o0 soldiers, sailors and civilians. who re eoived reports that the suffragists intended to return to burn copies ofI the president's speech. During 11h clash an overseas veteran was aid out, while a woman was thrown\ll i;i the pavement. The polcle inalls: quelled the disturblnce.

Lackeys in the cabinet building and the foreign office did not view the early revolutionary proceedings with great joy, They were against the new government for a while. The story goes, the head lackey called the other lackeys together in a janitor's room of the cabinet build ing, where they discussed recognition of the revolutionary officers. "Who are these new men?" they asked. "We don't know them. Will we recognize them or will we not?" It was finally decided to recognize them, not because the lackeys were won over to the new government. but in view of the general scarcity of jobs in Berlin and the high cost of food.

T.\YI..IR (United Press Staff Corr.tspondent.) Prague, Czecho-Slavokii, "eli. 5. (Ily Mail. )-Bohemia is the most pro-ally country in tile world now days. At least you have that impres sion when you arrive in Pr'Igue. coli ing from Berlin. The ('ctzeho-Slovaks have not been allowed to give vent to their feelings during tihe four years of the war, when they were dominated by Austria, andi they are making up for it now. Prague is a mass of atie.d flags, stuck in every possible torner along the crooked streets and in niches of the quaint buildings. America and the new Czecho-Slovak repiblic flags predominate, though there are thou sands of English, French. and Italian flags. When the Austrian empire finally collapsed, thousands of flags suddenly were brought froit hiding, many of them printed on paper, since cloth enough was impossible to find. Every store has two attractions, a picture of President Wilson. and with him President Masaryk. of the new republic. To the ('zechllo-Slovaks they are the greatest men of histor y, and both are universally admired almost to the extent of worship. The Czecho-Slovaks have organ ized committees to look after toi eigners. Some of the miost influ ential university people are servinlg voluntarily on these committees, and there is nothing they will not do to assist visitors from allied countries. Everyone in Czecho-Slovakia is looking forward to the arrival of the official Inmissions from other coulln tries. The Italians were the first to cross Austria and break the isolation of this stranded member of the en tente. An American mission under the leadership of Capt. Manual Vos ka, bringing a train of trucks loaded with medical supplies and food from Italy, is en route. French and Brit ish and British missions are expected. The ('zecho-Slovaks manifest their loyalty to the entente in every way possible. They have untdertaken pro tection of all allied subjects within the former Hapaburg empire, and as sist their traveling and work by means of station officers and repre sentatives in Vienna, Iludapest, and oliher cities. The spirit of the Czecho-Slovakls is at high ebhh and if contagious, Ifvery one in the land, with the exception of the Germans, is jubilant at "free dom after 400 years., as, the new born indepenidpnce is called, The people of the lilon ha vo as many pri vations as othlqr inhabitants lof the defeated countries, but joy at being liberated. German is a, language tabooed among the Czecho-Slovaks, not by decree but by public feeling.. Some times it. works difficulties for for eigners who know no Slav tongue. Go into a restaurant and order your meal in German, and the waiters probably will not understand you at all. You may not be served, unless you explain you are ap American, and don't know Bohemia, and there fore,must speak German, Then they will talk German and understand it, and will bring you anything they can get. The same is true of shops. Prague is a very old city with quaint, somewhat oriental passage ways, the least modern of the large cities in the former central empires, due, according to tlie Czecho-Slovaks, to the deliberate plan of the Austri ans to keep the city undeveloped. It is a cily of nearly a million, in cluding the inl hlitants of the suburbs. The people are lively and intelli gent. mostly dark complexioned and black-eyed.

Fred Henningsen, local manager of the Henningsen Produce company, [received word yesterday from Boise, Ida., of the acquittal of the company in the United States district court on charges of 28 alleged violations of the Sherman anti-trust law. The firm of Nolan & I)onovan, at torneys of Butte, defended the Hen ningsen's and it was due in large part to them that the defendant: were acquitted. The suit was on trial from Feb. 17 to March 4, and during this period the government introduced from 50 to 60 witnesses ,while A. I'. Hen ningsen and W. F. Henningsen wert the only witnesses for the. company in closing. The jury returned a ver dict of acquitall on all counts, thus vindicating the company, in the most conclusive manner. Originally the action was brought against the Commercial Creamers company and the Schallinger Pro duce company of Spokane, the Hazel wood company of Portland and thi Klock Product company of Seattle. as well as against the Henningsen company, but the suits were dis missed as to the former and the whole energy of the government con centrated on the Montana corpora tion. One of the defendants to the orig inal action against which similar charges were brought as against the Henningsen company was the Jensen Creamery company of Salt Lake, the company pleading guilty on a techni cal charge and agreeing to a line of $7,500.

JACOBS ADMITS ROBBERY PART Ex-Convict Is Expected to Plead Guilty to Holdup of Cohen Store When He Is Arraigned in Court. Failing to express any regret over the robbery and assault of Samuel Cohen, South Arizona street mer 'chant. Joseph Jacobs, an ex-convict, was placed in the county jail to await trial after his alleged confession of guilt to Chief Murphy yesterday, and he is expected to plead guilty when arraigned. Jacobs only fear is that he will he accused of the murder of John Shea and he sought to impress the chief with the fact that neither he nor his partner, Donegan, had been in that part of town. The prisoner informed Warden Frank Conley of the state prison, Chief Murphy and Captain O'Dpnnell that the pair planned the robbery when Cohen displayed a roll "big enough to choke a bull" "Do you know," said Jacobs, "that was only a flash roll and contained nothing but one dollar bills. That guy was poorer than I am. The wallet we expected to find full of Liberty bonds contained only receipts from some lodge." Jacobs and Donegan were taken from the city to the county jail yes terday. Jacobs is alleged to have told the police that he intended to stick to his former story regarding the robbery of Cohen. He showed contempt for the work of Donegan, who he said "did the tapping." NORTH DAKOTA'S (Continued From Page One.) mills, packing plants, and to engage ntherwise in .the marketing of hil agricultural products. The bill creating the North Dakota itome Builders' association, under which a workingman or tenant farm er may be put into possession of a city home or ready-made farm upon .t first payment of 20 per cent. The lignite coal bill, providing for Ihe regulation and operation of the lignite coal mines of the state. Three bond hills, one providing $2,000,000 capital for the Bank of North Dakota, a second providing $5,000,000 for the mill and elevator cystem, and a third providing for the :ssuance of bonds against real estate mortgaged to the bank, also were -igned by the governor. Some of the farmers who were in Bismarck to watch the final act in heir fight ior state marketing of grain were the same Equity men who had come to the legislature of 1915 to ask that session to pass the ter minal elevator bill. They were then told to "go home and slop the hogs. All Pledges Flulfilled. Lieut. Gov. Howard Wood, son of F. E. Wood, first farmer to join the Nonpartisan league, presided over the joint session of the legislature. Following the signing of the mea: ures there was a round of speech making. Farmer legislators from both houses recalled the long fight of the North Dakota farmers for the r, forms that they finally were getting. The joint session virtually market! the close of the North Dakota. legis lature. A few days were spent in winding up unfinished business, prin cipally dealing with small bills. The legislature finally adjourned with every preelection pledge fulfilled and every bill of the league program en acted into law. The Sixteenth North Dakota legis lature is remarkable in a number or ways. That it will prove a historical session was predicted by J. F. T. O'Connor, leader of the opposition on the floor of the house. No other legislature in any Ameri can state, has enacted so many im portant measures at a single session. The nearest approach was the record of the New Jersey legislature, during the first year of the administration of Governor - now president - Woo!d row Wilson. But the Frazier admin istration and the North Dakota legio latulre have done more progressive work and more of it than the Wilson administraton and the New Jcrsvy legislature did. Session Iess Than 6O Days. In spite of the importance of the legislation, the legislature intro duced less bills than ever before, cost less and adjourned earlier. Agree ment was made at the start to Ikeep down petty and unimportant bills and to adjourn as soon as the bills promised to the people were enacted. As a result adjournment was taken well before the end of 60 days. Less employes were used than eve; before. T'his was possible because help was selected on the basis of eef ficency rather than politics. The North Dakota legislature was the first to indorse all of President Wilson's "14 points" to insure per manent peace. The North Dakota legislature also was the first to make any substantial provision for the relief of returning soldiers, voting them $25 for each month spent in servee, the money to be used as first payment on a hoime or for education.
