Freight Rates Reduced.

Belt Valley Times: The Great North
ern has shown a desire to assist in the
development of the Belt creek coal
mines by a reasonable reduction in the
freight rates between here and Great
Falls. This is an excellent opportunity
for the owners of mines who are look
ing for q market for domestic purposes
to put in their best work and corral the
trade of Great Falls. The people of
that city will give Belt coal the pref
erence If 1t is anywhere near equal to
Lethbridge coal. which is our strongest
competitor. The only reason why our
coal has not been in greater demand
in the past was the high freight rates
and the fact that in some case no at
tention was paid to quality: Now that
the freight charges have been reduced
IT remains with the owners whether
they command and hold the trade of
outside towns or not. The coal now
being furnished the residents of Belt
from our mines is the equal of any
soft coal ever put on the market. 1t
is clean and contains very little more
ash, while it's lasting qualities are far
greater than Lethbridge coal.

Gov j. E. Richards Thanksgiving
proclamation is as follows:
During the year now drawing to a
close our beloved state has felt the
throb of returning prosperity and the
dmparting Of new vigor to its Industrial

the grave responsibilities of new con-
dftions. have placed Montana upon the
threshold of a most prosperous future.
We are Indebted to Almighty God for
uhe abundant resources that have an
chored this commonwealth in the safe
harbor of industrial supremacy. despite
the financial disasters that have swept
over the land. The past year has been
characterized by new life in every
branch of effort associated with the
material prosperity of the state. In
humble Acknowledgement of the bless
ings vouchsafed our people, earnestly
recommend that Thursday, the 2Sth

served and set apart as a day Of
Thanksgiving and prayer: and that on

several places of worship and with
fitting ceremonies give praise upon that

John X ngIey OF Tacoma

Washington Post: John Kangley of
Tacoma, Wash, Is at the Shoreham.
Mr.. Kangley is manager of the North
ern Pacific Railroad Coal company OF
Ros1yn. Wash. and owner Of the Kang-
ley mines in Illinois.
''Out in Washington" said ne. I'VE
are looking forward TO a duty on coal.
Out there the placing of coal on the
free list has hurt every mine, as we
employ white labor and pay living
wages, while in British Columbia the
mine owners hire cheap Chinese coolle
labor. In the East the lack OF duty on
coal does not amount to much and the
mines do not suffer thereby. / think
that the Northwest Is having better
times than for two years past. though
the Improvement IL not so marked that
there is cause for great rejoicing.
The times win not be good TIL we
get a sound currency. and one that the
whole world Will respect. II the last
congress had not talked so much about
the small amount OF gold We had the
country would be better OF to-day. The
advertising OF the little supply OF gold
on hand made every foreign country

made out THAI We had plenty OF gold

foreigners would have taken anything

Great Falls Tribune: The state
board of education has decided to send
a committee east to examine into the
systems for heating and ventilatfng
public buildings before a conclusion is
reached regarding that work on the ag-
ricultural college at Bohemian. 1t may
be the part OF wisdom to send the gem
tlemen East and it may be the means
of saving money and securing the best
system, but we do not believe 1t. In
defense of the junket 1t will be argued
that a look at the different systems in
practical operation is more, satisfactory
than an explanation of them with the
aid of drawings. While this is to a
degree true, experience teaches that
upon such subjects committees rarely
agree, and the chances are that upon
the return of the gentlemen the board
will find itself between two or more
fires and will be as much perplexed as
though they had invited the represen-
tatives of the different systems and es-
Establishments to Bozeman to explain
the merits of their respective styles.
The present condition of the finances
of the state institutions are such as to
call for proper economy. The send
ing of the committee in the end may
prove a good investment. One thing
can be said: the gentlemen selected as
the committee can be relied upon to
give intelligent consideration to the
subject.

Shelter Improvement.

Great Falls Tribune: AS will be
seen by advertisements in another coll
umn the Boston and Montana COM
pany has called for bids for extensive
improvements at the Great Falls smell
ter. Proposals are asked for the con-
struction for a new power and macl11n-
cry and for other work. For some
time past there have been rumors that
the company would double the capac-
ity of it's plant here and make certain
additions, The calls for bids would in
dictate that the story had a foundation
in fact. 1t is said also that since the
Butte and Boston have been consolida-
ted with the Boston and Montana IL
has been decided 20 abandon the smell
ter of the former at Butte and have all
the ore treated here. This Is not at
all improbable. for IT will certainly be
a matter of economy to do so. In any
event there Is to be large improvements
made at the smelter here. This of it,
self is cheering news TO our people at
this time. 1t means employment of
men for construction and an increase
in the working force when completed.

them instead. The birds, despite their
skill, are caught by being invited into a
room. A piece of wire is next passed be-
tween tho two holes in the upper beak,
and little bell or button or round bit of
metal is fastened, each batch of soldiers
having its own badge, to it, and the crow
Is then set free unframed Very soon
nearly every crow wears its distinctive
mark, from which it is easy to tell TO what
troop or company it belongs. Unhappily,
instead of feeling their ornaments are
symbols of shame, they arc all proud of
them, of the bells especially, and one can
easily believe that it is funny to see a row
of these black rogues perched on a roof
shaking their heads and tinkling their
bells.

Littlefeld appeared for the petitioners and
Hon. j. H. Montgomery for the remon-
strants. The petitioners claim that only
in time Of extreme drouth do they desire
to draw the water off, that it is for their
interests to care for the water in the pond,
but that when the water is needed, ana
this does not happen oftener than once in
10 years, and then usually in the fall, II
unable to draw the lake lower, great loss
IS occasioned to the industries on the
streams below, industries in which is in
vested between $500, GOO and $500, 600.
The business life of Camden, they con-
tend, depends largely on their having per-
mission to take thig water.
The remonstrants, on the other hand,
contend that if they need more water they
should build the dam higher and
pay for the fowage; that to draw
the water four feet lower would
expose the bottom of nearly
third Of the area covered by the pond
and greatly damage the value Of the shores
az summer resorts Already, it was
claimed, the fear that the water would be
drawn off has frightened many from in
yestino in summer homes there. A large
amount Of testimony was introduced by
both sides.
