City 32 years figo. He began his edu-
cation in the Mason City public schools
Poland continued his studies at Milton
Miltary Academy, Milton, Mass., and
finished at Harvard in 1911. Then for
five years he worked as a teller in his
father's bank here.
MacNider went to the Mexican bor-
der in 1916 as a first lieutenant in the
Iowa National Guard. When the war
came he resigned his commission with
the National Guard In order to attend
the first officers' training camp at Fort
Snelling in May, 1917. He was given
a provisional second lieutenancy in
.the regular army and assigned to the
Ninth Infantry, which with*the Twen-
ty-third, made up the regular army
brigade of the second division.
Soon after arriving in France in
September, 1917, Mr. MacNider was
sent to the army candidates school at
Langres as an instructor. The service
at Langres was boresome. His old di-
vision was on the battle front, winning
honor after honor. In May, 1918, Mac-
Nider was transferred back to the In-
diau^Head division. His record from
then on can be related along with the
campaigns of the Aisne, Marne, St.
Mlhiel and two offensives in the Meuse-
Argonne. He was promoted from pla-

mander of the American Legion in
Iowa. While holding the state office,
he advocated and saw enacted into law

dier’s bonus bill, a bill giving ex-sol-
dlers preference in public offices, and

up to 1500. He looked after the hos-
pitalization of Iowa's disabled soldiers
and conducted a statewide service and

Mason City residents say his only
sweetheart is his mother. One half
hour after he was elected national
commander at Kansas City he was
telling her all about it over the long
distance telephone.
DETHRONED CHIEF OF
POLICE COMES BACK
CLEVELAND’S NEW MAYOR GETS
OFFICE WITHOUT MAKING
CAMPAIGN SPEECH.
tsaorlatad Pres*
Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 25.—From de-
throned chief of police to mayor of
Cleveland in eight years was the ac-
complishment of Fred S. Kokler.
Strangely enough Kohler, who became
prominent as the “Golden Rule Chief,”
during Mayor Tom L. Johnson’s re-
gime, was elected without making a
campaign speech. Instead, for five
months he conducted a house to house
canvass which he carried into every
(ward and probably into every precinct
| in the city.
i “How many miles did I walk? Thou-
sand, but I have no idea just how
many,” the mayor-elect said. “Of
course, not every doorstep had a wel-
come sign hanging up for me, but I had
one line that I used whenever I found
a chilly reception, and it never failed
to thaw a cold group. If I Introduced
myself and no one seemed enthusias-
tic, I wound up with: ‘Well, if you'll
vote for me I’ll appreciate it and if
you don’t I’ll never know about it.”
Kohler announced his candidacy as
an independent Republican this; fall.
His slogan was:
“Clean up the city.
“Best police chief in the United
States.
“Make life, property and town safe,
and you will have a city manager.”
Kohler’s comeback started nearly
from the day in 1913 when he was dis-
missed as chief of police by the civil
service commission on charges filed
by Newton D. Baker, at that time may-
or, of conduct unbecoming an. officer.
Joining the police force in 1889, Koh-
ler walked a beat only four years.
Promotions came fast and he was
made chief in 1902. During his incum-
bency he promulgated the “Golden
Rule.” * .
Drunks were sent home. First of-
fenders in minor matters were releas-
ed with a warning. Few arrests In-
stead of as many as possible was the
rule. But the bars were down hard
and fast to known crooks and thugs.
Opposition to Chief Kohler broke
out in 1910. He was suspended by
Mayor Herman Baehr, but was exon-
erated by the civil service commission.
Upon his dismissal by the commission
on Mayor Baker’s charges, Kohler
sought election to the city council in
1913, but was defeated.
The following year he tried for sher-
iff on the Republican ticket and again
was defeated. In 1915 he ran for clerk
of the municipal court and lost again.
The next year he won the Republican
nomination for county commissioner.
But still he was unsuccessful, being
defeated In the election.
His persistency was rewarded two
years late, however, when he was elect-
ed county commissioner. He was the
first Republican to be elected to the
court house in eight years. He was
re-elected in 1920 for two years.
Three bushel baskets full of letters
and telegrams of congratulations have

ing under orders of the federal court.
The men go back on a thirty day pro-

to st*ate whether any of the men who
replaced the strikers would be retain-
ed. None of the new men in the local

Ballinger, Texas, Nov. 25.—After
Thomas L. Blanton had spoken last
night to a large crowd, reviewing his

most unanimously endorsed his senato-

IRISH NEGOTIATIONS
AGAIN BECOME GRAVE
WARFARE MAY BE RESUMED IF
NO AGREEMENT IS REACHED
AT CONFERENCE.
Associated Press
London, Nov. 25.—As Premier Craig
of Ulster went into conference with
Premier Lloyd George today, it was
admitted officially that the Irish peace
negotiations had reached a grave and
critical stage. A prominent member
of the Sinn Fein bore this out. “The
situation is too serious for talk,” he
said.
The interview lasted one hour. Pre-
mier Lloyd George was unable to give
Ulster the assurance that the Sinn
Fein would admit the point of allegi-
ance to the king as king of Ireland. It
appears that if the Sinn Fein maintains
this attitude negotiations will be bro-
ken off, with the resumption of warfare
an immediate possibility.

Washington, Nov. 25.—The appoint-
ment of a sub-committee headed by
Senator Lodge of the American dele-
gation, to co&sider the question of ex-
tra territorial rights for China was au-
thorized today by the Pacific-Far East-

ference. The belief is expressed gen-
erally that rights could not be given
up immediately in view of the condi-
tions in China, but that abolition
should come promptly as compatible
with the present situation and prog-
ress of China. The Chinese delegation
presented a statement strongly urging
the abolishment of extra territorial
right*.

RAINS UNCOVER BURIAL
GROUNDS OF ANCIENT RACE
Associated Press
Douglas, Arizona, Nov. 25.—Recent
heavy rains in the vicinity of Red-
dington, near here, have uncovered
the burial grounds of a race of giant
people who are thought to have
lived thousands of years ago, accord-
ing to August Eaiey, a miner, who
has been employed in the Redding-
ton district.
Eaiey described parts of skeletons
recovered from the cemetery
ciard that the stature of the me*
must have been twice that of th*
average man of today. One skull

preservation. Pieces of pottery, ear
rings, remains of charcoal fires and
other evidence uncovered by the rain

covery to the state university with
the hope that a more inimate investi-
gation would be made of the burial
ground.

CONDUCTORETTES FA*T
LOSING WAR TIME JOB*
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 25.—The con-
ductorette is a rapidly vanishing
quantity in Baltimore, and, like the
bison of the Western plains, will
exist only in the fables told to their
grandchildren by old men who lived
here during the world war. In 191ft
there were 157 women and girls
working on the lines of street rail-
way. In 1920 the number was great-
ly decreased and today but 16 of
these conductorettes are to be found
on the widely scattered lines of the
city.
Romance was directly responsible
for some of them deserting the cars. .
Love affairs sprang up between con-
ductorettes and motormen, with mar-
riage as the result.
