A Chinook Blowing,

Great Falls, Feb. 12.-Yesterday even
ing about 10 o'clock the mercury shot
up from Is below to one or two points
above zero and since that time has
continued to climb, though not so
swiftly as in the first Is or 20 minutes
OF the chinook. This warm wind mas
been blowing steadily all through last
night and to-day and continues at the
present time. Should it last for two
days more all danger to stock in this
part or the state Will be at an end. There
was IS inches of snow on the ground
last night before the wind began and it
IS probable that about three inches has
been carried away. The only danger
lies In possibility of the wind ceasing
before it has completed it's work and a
cold snap then would be likely to seal
up the grass for good and cattle would
suffer more than ever

Wants to Know Why.

Great Falls, Feb. 12.-Since the last
contractor took charge of this route the
mail service both ways has been all that
could be asked until last week, says the
Belt Valley Times. On last Thursday
We received no mail from Great Falls,
neither did we on Saturday.
We have endeavored to ascertain the
exact cause of the failure to arrive, but
without success. While admitting the
roads We're in bad shape to make very
good time, nevertheless it was possible
for the stage to come through, as other
rigs made the trip between Great Falls
and Belt. Even had the roads been i'm
passable, there were trains coming and
going all day each day, and the con-
tractor could, at least, have taken the
letter mail and brought it out on the
train

DECENcY DEFIED.
Clark's Name Stencil in the Nostrils of
Honest Men.

Siafk's name stencil in the NOstfils of
Honest Men.
Great Falls, Feb. 1.-THE republican
papers of Northern Montana are hav-
ing hard time with their feelings TO-
ward the members of their party who
recently voted fer w. A. Clark. Appar-
emily it is difficult thing to swallow
republican votes for democratic can
didate. The LewistoWn Argus of this
week contains another screed against
the Fergus county men who deserted
the republican banner and, in part,
says the following:
owing largely to the feeling grow
ing out of the capital contest there was
a sentiment here in favor of Mr.. Clark
as against the DAILY faction, and had
he pursued honorable methods in Sc
curing his election he would have still
retained much of that appreciation But
the open defiance of all decency and the
barter in mems regulations, regardless
OF party, has, or should, make his name
stencil with all men who have any
regard for clean politics and personal
integrity. During the campaign last
fall Mr.. Hobson frequently said that
personally he would prefer to see w.
u. Conrad elected United States senator,
he was well acquainted with Mr. Con-
rad; he was a protectionist and a good
man. his election would amount to
recognition OF the StOck-groWing inter-
ests. etc. But Mr. Hobson and his 10
associates, all from stock counties, we
believe, did not find time to give even
vote of confidence to Mr.. Conrad.
While they had no excuse or sanction
from their constituents for voting for a
democrat, had they voted for Mr.. Con-
rad they could have offered much bet
ter reasons for so doing and might have,
IN measure, been justified. He stands
for all that w. A. Clark does and more,
too, for he is regarded as an honorable
man. He did not have record as a
bribe-giver. OF course, Mr.. Hobson
makes the plea that he attempted to
swing the republicans to Mr.. Conrad at
one time, but that was only ruse.
THE deal to deliver Mr. Clark 10 or II
republican votes at the proper time was
made early in the game and little by
plays curt no figure in the contest. This
IS the reason the obstinate II could sit
like wooden men in their seats and give
no response to the appeals to their per-
sonal honor and loyalty to party"

Dangers of the Grin

The greatest danger from la grippe is
OF its resulting in pneumonia. If rea-
sonaoie care is used, however, and
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken,
all danger will be avoided. Among the
tens of thousands who have used this
remedy for la grippe we have yet to
learn of single case having resulted
in pneumonia, which shows conclusive
ly that this remedy is a certain pre-
Ventive of that dangerous disease. It
will cure la grippe in less time than any
other treatment. 1t is pleasant and safe
to take. For sale by druggists.
