MUCH TO LEARN.
A Winter Meeting Of Orchardists Is
Among the Probabilities.

Missoula, Jan. 10.-There seems to be
a general desire on the part of the
farmers of Western Montana to carry
out the excellent suggestion made some
weeks ago by Professor Emery, direc-
tor of the state agricultural expert
ment station, regarding a midwinter
farmers institute or convention. at
which topics of interest can be dis
cussed. The farmers can better spare
the time at this season of the year
than at any other and there Is no
doubt that a series Of meetings would
be of immense benefit to all who at
tend. Now that so many farmers and
others are preparing to plant orchards
in the spring, advice from those who
have had experience in the matter will
be OF great value and assistance and
may save the loss of hundreds of dol
lars.
1t is probable that the matter will
be taken up by the board of trade at
its meeting Monday evening, as Ii is a
subject in which the board should take
an active interest. Thousands of young
fruit trees are to be planted in the
spring and II is essential to the COM
plete success of fruit culture in this
section that the work should be well
done. The successful rearing of these
scores of orchards will mean much for
Missoula. 1t will add to the revenue
of the city and will make Missoula an
important center. The board of trade
should take the matter in charge and
exert every effort to bring to Missoula
large attendance of farmers and or
chardists.
There are many other points which
concern not only the farmers but mer-
chants as well. The proper methods of
handling and packing fruits and vege-
tables, the preparation OF produce for
the market and kindred topics are OF
vital Importance and there Is much
room for Improvement in all these lines
on the part of local producers. Then
there is the creamery project which
was so generally discussed last spring
but which was allowed TO lapse into
inocuous desuetude. This is a good
time TO investigate thoroughly the
milk supply, which was said to be the
obstacle last spring. BY starting the
project now, the question could be
definitely settled one way or the other
There are enough subjects for profit
able discussion TO keep an institute GO
ang Tor a week. Certainly a three days
session could be arranged that would
be OF much practical benefit. Several
prominent farmers who have been in
terviewed by a Standard reporter have
expressed themselves favorably upon
the subject and President Francis OF
the board of trade stated this after
noon that he believed the board OF
trade could arrange such a meeting ~
farmers and business men as would he

HOW THINGS APPEAR
Seltzer Should Be Applied to Affairs
Political in Ravalli.
THERE'S AN UNDERCURRENT
County Attorney Myers VIII Re-
quest Judge Woody to Call a
Grand Jury to investigate
Certain Matters.

StevensviIle. Jan. 10-Ravalh county
has always enjoyed the reputation OF
being a peaceable, prosperous COM
munity, ever since IL was created ana
ceased to be a part of Missoula county.
Its balance sheet Is admitted to be
creditable one and it's resources are
unparalleled in the state. There Is.
however, at present a state of affairs
in the county that threatens to ruin
the good name of the young county
and to brand it as a quarrelsome COM
munity, where personal grievances are
carried into the discussion of public
matters and where personal abuse and
chickering's supplant argument ana
logic.
The friends of Ravalli county at
home and abroad view the present sit
uation with regret. That county con-
tracts and county business cannot be
calmly and fairly discussed Is too bad.
The county's affairs are generally be-
lieved to be in good hands. II there Is
any mismanagement, Ii ought to be
exposed. but there is right way OF
doing 1t and the torrent of abuse that
has ebbed and flowed here for several
months is becoming nauseating to de-
cent people. If there is a screw loose
in the management of county affairs.
there Is an easy and quiet way of
tightening IT, But for the sake of the
good name of the county, there ought
to be a change in the present peculiar
methods of discussion which prevail
here.
Instead of getting better. matters
have become worse lately, until County
Attorney Myers. whose name has been
rung into the squabble and who has
been abused as long as he cares to,
will request Judge Woody to call a
grand jury TO investigate the charges
which have been so recklessly made
against him. 1t is the almost unani-
nous opinion here that Mr.. Myers is
entirely innocent of the offenses with
which he has been accused.

Two Boys Appeared In Court for Ar
raignment, but No One Was here.
Missoula, Jan. 10.-Oficer Larson last
night captured two small boys in the act
of climbing into one of the upper story
windows of the opera house. He didn't
blame them much; almost anybody would
climb into a window to see Fife Ellsler
act, If he couldn't get in any other way.
But the officer COUNT overlook the fact
that the boys have been doing this for
long time, so he took them in charge and
held them captive for an hour. Then he
sent them home and ordered them to re-
port at the police court at 10 o'clock this
morning.
When 10 o'clock came the boys were on
hand. but they found the court room emp
~. They waited until they got hungry
and then left. Before going they prepared
the following communication to Judge
Ross. which they penned in red ink and
left in a conspicuous position on the judi
cial desk:
I'd. II. Ross: We hereby fine you the
sum of ten dollars (s10) for not attending
court this morning at your agreement. We

KILLING OF DIR. c. A. HUGHES

Sheriff Sage has Walter A. Jones

take in allowing his sympathies, TO
overbalance his sworn duty. The law

sheriffs weakness than on the shoot

itself an injury to the cause of Jones.

Sheriff Sage has subjected himself to
the, most severe censure in continuing
to keep Jones at the Fuller house in
opposition to the demands of justice
and the desire of a large majority of
the representative citizens of that COM
munity. The only EXCISE that can be
offered Is that the accused man Is
pronounced populist. Something over
a year ago a respected citizen of Ward
ner was arrested by Sheriff Cameron
for killing a man who was threatening
his life in his own place of business,
and he was Immediately placed in jail,
irrespective of party favors or any
other consideration, so just why Wal
ter Jones should be allowed the free

man in the victims house is something
that the public would like an explain
alton of.
