Several men who have for some
time made their head quarters at
this place were recently invited by
Major Steel to attend a social at
his office at the Agency. Unlike
many gatherings, this entertain.
ment did not continue until a late
hour, but as result there was
''hurrying TO and fro" in order to
obey the majors mandate Of,
''stand not upon the order OF your
going, but go at once!' And they
went via. the Great Northern.
During the last severe spell OF
weather, in January, portion o.!
the range cattle bearing the F and
20 brands driftcd from their accus-
toned range on this reservation to
Birch creek. The foreman OF that
outfit, wins for some months prior
had been located in winter quart
ers on the upper end Of Cobell's
flat, is now at Ro0are looking alter
estrays. 1t is said that feed,
especially oata, is, much cheaper
there than at any place in this vic
unity, Notwithstanding that we
have connection by rail with the
agricultural land of Fathcad
county.

Sheep that Require no Water.

Mr.. O. G.. Cooper, one of the
pioneers in the sheep business, and
one of the largest owners in the
state, has the nuculus of what will
probably be in few years the
most valuable strain in the coun try
for breeding purposes. The strain
possesses qualities that will strong
ly recon mend them to breeders in
a country like this, where an abun-
dance OF succLlent grasses can be
had at q distance from the water
supply. This peculiar acquisition
to our flocks originated as follows
Some eight years ago about six
weeks after the close OF the season
Of formulation Mr. Cooper moved
band of ewes from his Bone Yard
ranch to another location. The
night before the removal shrop-
shire eve was imprisoned in a build
| ing, the door of which was closed
during the night by violent wind.
The herder started the band al
break of day, neglectiug to exam
inc the stable before his departure.
In one end of the stable was stor
ed a quantity of hay, but there wa
not drop OF water with which the
eve could qucnch her thirst Three
weeks later the eve was relieved
from her prison and placed III the
band, In due time she gave birth
to twins, male and a female, botb
PECULIARLY marked about the head,
as was the mother, with small,
round spots.
In the fall. when the lambs were
separated from their mothers fol
weaving the herder noticed tha,
these two peculiarly marked lambs
never drank water, tat remained
several rods away from the creek
while their companions were drink
ing.
Mr.. Cooper's attention was call
ed to these two lambs and, witt
commendable forethought, immed
lately gave directions. that they bt
given extra care and, as result o.
eight years effort he has now
twelve head of sheep, not enc o
which is known to have swallowed
a drop of water.
OF the wonderful characteristic.
communicated to the young in en-
bryo, this is one of the most won
derful and no doubt but that it will
turn out to be one of the most val
uaole. No man can estimate tht
wealth these nonaqueous sheer
will afford when they have multi
piled enough to stock the aImos
boundless dry bench lands of Mon
lana. 4

Editor Acantha-Having receiv-
Ell a number of letters from Teton

| will say through your columns
that for poor man this Is the
worst camp ON earth. Wages here
are comparatively nothing. A
miner gets So per day, that is II h.
has pedigree as long Us both
arms; but he mrst pay one dollar
for hospital fees his miners license
OF S5, and washing Fifty cents per
week, so {. man has to work for less
than s2 per day.
The last timeI worked I in the
mines / lasted one Shift aad a half.
The ooss put me to work with
dago. We were down 200 feet in
solid rock. was striking the
drill with an eight pound hammer
and the dago was turning. It was
an upper aole and was getting
along fiuely when all at once the
hammer glanced from the drill and
hit the dago in the inouth. sol had
to lie off the remainder of the.shift

morning the boss said, ''Cramer,

let this camp alone speak from

d man cannot eat solid rock no
matter how much gold it may con-
tain.
But I will say that in my opin-
ion this IS going to be the richest
gold camp in North America with
in the next two years. There are
new discoveries being made every
day and if man has q few hun
died dollars TO invest he cannot
find better place to invest it than
in Rossland, b. c. Money here is
very scarce and the town is full of
prospectors who are broke and
man can with little money get
hold Of undcveloped property in
good locations very cheap. But
where prospector. has any ore in
sight he asks a good price for it.

For Circuit Judge.


The opposition to E. w. Helms for
circuit judge is based on indefensible
claims. The chief argument used is
that it is not good policy to change
Bundy has made a capable judge and
his long experience on the bench is an
additional reason for his reelection.
LII no change was contemplated by the
people then the judge should have
been elected for life instead of for a
definite term of years, as the law con-
templates. But there are often other
reasons than inefficiency for rotation
out of office. A man long in a line of
thought in authority frequently be-
comes arbitrary and out of sym pathy
with the people.
The limitation of term of office is
constant reminder to the official
that lie is public servant, hired and
paid by the people to perform for
them in satisfactory manner those
duties deyolving upon the office. A
man long in Office frequently comes to
arrogate to himself the right to decide
what the public needs, and to act as
he thinks. 1t is true that in case Of
inferior judges mistakes can be RENE
died by costly appeal to the superior
courts. This statement is made as
general one and with no reference to
any particular case.
Another argument used in the con-
troyersy as an opposition to change
is that Helms is republican and is
therefore partisan. The argument
is no more defensible as against Helms
as being republican than as against
Bundy as being a democrat.
The members of the bar who are
best acquainted with Mr.. Helms legal
equipment assert that there is no
better qualified attorney for the Office
of judge within the circuit. In schol-
arly attachments generally, in social
standing and in rigid integrity Mr..
Helms qualifications are universally
acknowledged

Will people never learn that "cold" is
an accident to be dreaded, and that when
it occurs treatment should be promptly
applied? There is no knowing where the
trouble will end; and while complete
recovery is the rule the exceptions are
terribly frequent, and thousands of fatal
illnesses occur every year, ushered in by
a little injudicious exposure and SEEM
ingly trifing symptoms. Beyond this,
there are to-day countless invalids who
can trace their complaints to "colds, y
which at the time of occurrence gave no
concern and were therefore neglected.

Mr.. f. w. Helms, candidate for
circuit judge, is a man Of correct
habits, hard student and in love
with the profession of law. In the
trial of case he is cool and collected,
alert for the weak points of his OPP
ponent and prepared for his strong
points, and is not easily surprised by
the unexpected, for he has studied his
case from the standpoint of mis- OPP
ponent as well as his own. He is free
from prejudice, not easily biased
gentlemanly in his bearing, qualities
that good judge should possess.
The tendency of the times is towards
the selection of younger men for
circuit judges. Burnell of the Sd
circuit, ellison of the 4th, Clementson
of the 9Th, Seibecker of the 9th,
Hastings of the 18th, also Winslow an d
Marshall now on the Supreme bench
were comparatively young men when
first elected but they have made good
judges and given excellent satisfac-
tion. New young blood is needed on
the bench in this circuit. In Mr..
Helms the people of this circuit will
have judge who is well up in his
profession, ambitious to succec ! and
whose decisions, because of careful
preparation, will command respect.
