FIRST or ALI, MONTANA.

Every Montanian who read last year
papers knows that the delegation Q
Montana in the congress Of the United
States produced nightly few beneticiar.
results for the state. They may tell VI
OF the disadvantages Of new legislators
.he handicap of attempted Legislation
from brand new state, the inexper-
iences Of first state representatives, etc
These are reasonable as we'll AS plausible
explanations and may be admitted
But, Montana rightfully expects re-
suits from the efforts OF her representa-
tives at Washington this year and she
will be disappointed If these eSpecta.
tions are not forthcoming.
Commodore Power and Colonel San
ders have been in the United States
senate long enough to become familiar
with matters. They ought to know
how legislation is started, climaxed and
carried on to successful finish. Con
gresham Dixon, without the diplo-
matic and slippery shrewdness of Ex-
Congressman Carter, is expected to join
Power and Sanders in bringing to a sue
cessful issue all bills introduced for the
benefit of thus state. Congressman
Dixon's known ability and his loyalty to
his section Of the country should be
sufficient assurance of earnest endeavor.
Among other things, Montana wants
national aid for tho reclamation Of her
arid lands which the government owns;
she wants public buildings for her most
populous and most important cities; she
wants the national government to rem
der proper assistance in every way to
promote the prosperity Of the third
largest and the first in natural resources
of all the states in the union.
Montana's representatives. in the CON
gress Of the United States should stand
together to promote tho welfare of the
state. Political, social or geographical
differences should not interfere in this
work. Personal differences between
Colonel Sanders and Commodore
Power must be promptly settled and
they and Congressman Dixon must
work for the commonwealth.
1t is time for the national government
to give a friendly hand to this new
state but we can hardly hope for govern
mental benefits if Power, Sanders and
Dixon are to be segregated by personal
or political differences. Legislation is
business and the sooner all come to-
gether the sooner we may hope to see
the realization of the future greatness
of the state

INJURED OPERA SINGERS.
Members of the Andrews Opera Compan
Slowly Recovering.

Members of the Andrews Opera Company
Slowly Recovering.
Advance Agent Wakefield, Of the Ad-
drews Opera company, has received adyices
that A. B. Choate, an attorney of Mime
apolis, visited the members of the company
who we're injured in the recent accident on
the Northern Pacific near Brainerd. The
question of damages is likely to be settled
out of court. 1t is understood that the
company denies its liability, but the
fact that it is steadily settling the
smaller claims shows that it is
not likely to press this point. It is UNDER
stood that Mrs. Wallace. of Minneapolis,
has been offered $4,000 in settlement Of the
death Of her daughter. The law in Mime
sofa limits the liability Of railroad for
death to 5000. There is no limit to the
amount of damages that may be claimed
for injuries, SO it is decidedly better to be
injured than killed in an accident.
The injured are stopping at the Arlington
hotel, Brainerd, and their bills are paid by
the railroad company. May Douglas and
Lula Hashow arc recovering rapidly. Miss
Florence Joy had all her hair burned off.
Miss Fritch is suffering from nervous pros.
tration. Miss Roe has n broken arm, in
ternal injuries and bad burns. The rail
road company has made settlements with
some of the company who were slightly in
ju5ed. Mr.. Wakefield has been in Helena
since the accident awaiting the recovery Of
the injured. When they are able the COM
pany will start out again.

RAISING POTATOES.
A NIissoula County Ranchman shows the
Possibilities Of the Business.

"A Missoula County Ranchman shows the
Possibilities Of the Business.
VIM. Spurgin, ranchman in MissoEla
county, who has been making some investi-
cations and experiments in potato grow
ing, says the Missoula Gazette, is inclined
to the opinion that the possibilities of the
industry are not fully realized and appre-
ciated. He devoted twenty-five acres last
year to the raising Of potatoes and just BY
way Of gathering some statistics on the
subject, kept accurate account OF his re-
ceipts and expenditures. He finds that the
total cost per acre after the potatoes we're
sacked and ready for the market was 81. 30.
The average yield was 200 bushels to the
acre. Thirty cents per bushel is probably
as low as potatoes have ever sold in this
market. With this data it does not require
a very long pencil or much paper to figure
out that the profits on potato raising in
this county are considerable. Mr.. Spurgin
has made investigation also in other direc-
tions and finds that a pound of Montana
potatoes contains about twice as mnch
starch as the average eastern product, a
fact that is suggestive Of another industry
which would pay here-the manufacture Of
starch. With the cost of raising the po-
tatoes as little as indicated above they
could be bought, if taken in large guam
titles, cheap enough to enable starch
makers to undersell eastern competitors
and the fact that the Montana potato con-
tains SO much starch is another point in
favor of the idea.

Wolves in scott County.

1t is fact, says the Davenport Demo-
cEat that very little attention has been
given to wolf hunting by the rural sports.
men in the past few years. but it has not
been because there is a scarcity of wolves.
The woods in various parts of the county
are full of them. In the vicinity of Gill
bert they still make night hideous with
their bowling, and along the timber sec
lions of the Wapsie they are said to be
very numerous. Sheep raisers out that
way have had number of lambs and
grown sheep killed by these heinous
animals in the past few weeks One of
the butchers in Davenport who has a
large herd of sheep lost Is recently
and he expects to lose more. The proba-
bilities are that after the Fourth of July,
when the increased bounty will be gwen,
there will be a marked interest manifested
in wolf hunting in all parts of Scott
county. 1t has been claimed by many of
the sportsmen that the present bounty is
not enough to make the hunting of
wolves profitable. E. Starks, of Pleas
ant Valley, shot an Old wolf recently and
captured her four young ones He will
feed the young ones until the new bounty
goes into effect.
