CAUGHT A DREADFUL COLD.

Marion Kooke, manager for T. M.
Thompson, a large importer of fine mil
linery at 1865 Milwaukee Avenue, Chi
cago, says: During the late severe
weather I caught a dreadful cold which
kept me awake at night and made me
unfit to attend my work during the day.
One of my milliners was taking Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy for a severe
cold at that time, which seemed to re-
lieve her SO quickly that I bought some
for myself. 1t acted like magic and l
began to improve at n am now en-
tirely we'll and feel very pleased to ac-
knowledge it's merits" For sale by

STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
Attorney Generel Donovan Says New Law
Is Constitutional.

At the annual meeting of the state
board of horticulture held at Helena
his week. S. NJ. Emery of Manhattan
was elected president of the. board.
Olney Taylor of Park City, who is a
member of the board for Yellowstone
county, was chosen inspector for the
first district.
During the course Of the meeting an
opinion was rendered by Attorney
General Donovan to the effect that
the horticultural law passed by the
last legislature was constitutional and
should be enforced. This law provides
for the collection of fees for the in
spection of fruits, and it is estimated
that from So, 600 to SIS, 900 per annum
will be collected by the board. Fees
for inspection were fixed as follows:
For inspecting each nursery, $40: in
spection of each carload of nursery
stock, $40, and proportionate sun for
lesser quantity; 2 cents for each box
or package of fruit, with maximum
fee of So for each carload.

THE DAILY
Report of the Commercial Fluctuations of
Interest to Montanans.
Boston Wool Mar ket.

Boston, April 10-The American
Cotton and Wool Reporter will say of
the wool trade tomorrow: The mar
ket is decidedly more quiet and a very
marked falling off in the volume of
business is noticeable. The large SON
sumers have apparently supplied their
needs for the time being and al
though quite a number of the smaller
mills have been in line, they have
taken on only small lines, the aggre-
gate of which is figured at 3,60S, 900
pounds. This quieter condition of
affairs was not unexpected and is not
unnatural, after the enormous business
previously transacted. Tt would have
been strange indeed if such a period
of activity had been longer main
tanned, in view of the fact that the
great bulk of the purchasing was for
consumption. Probably not a pound
Of the large total given last week vas
bought for speculation. Although
there has been such a marked falling
off in the volume of trade, there is no
weakening whatever in prices.
The sales for the week in Boston
amounted to 3,303, 900 pounds domes-
tic and 215, 900 pounds foreign, max
ing a total of $780,, 600, against a total
of IL, 4O5, 900 pounds for the previous
week and a total of 3,692, 900 for the
corresponding week last year. The
sales since January l amount to g.
734, 300 pounds, against AZ, 421, 900
pounds for the corresponding time last
year.

TOM MCDONALD RESIGNS.
A New Manager Will Have Charge Of
Bridger Coal Mine.

T. P. Mcdonald Of Bridger was in
the city Tuesday. During the past
few weeks there have been numerus
reports relative to Mr.. Mcdonald hay
ing resigned as manager of the Bridger
Coal company, and he has denied the
same to The Gazette on one occasion.
But yesterday he annunced that he
had resigned and that his resignation
will take effect today, when he will
be succeeded by H. r. Cocker Of St.
Paul. Mr.. Cocker was at one time
connected with the Sand Coulee coal
mines and has had extensive experience
in the operation of coal mines.
Mr.. Mcdonald stated that extensive
development work will at once be in
stituted and prosecuted with the ut
most dispatch until the output Of the
mines reaches 1000 tons per day. The
mine is behind with orders and 80 or
40 good coal miners can get profitable
employment there at this time.
Mr.. Mcdonald did not make known
his future course, but it is thought
that he intends to go over into Wyom-
ing, where he recently purchased q
large tract of coal land, situated on
the head-waters of Gooseberry creek,
a tributary Of the Big Horn river. and
80 miles southwest Of Meeteetse. 1t
is said that he paid $50, 900 for the
land, acting as agent for W. A. CLARK
Of Butte, and will now superintend
the development of coal mines on the
land.
Mr.. Mcdonald has been manager OF
the Bridger mines since they were
opened, some three years ago, and it
has been due largely to his efforts that
the mines have been made one of the
best paying properties of Carbon coun.
ty. He will be greatly missed from
this section of the state, where he has
made many friends during his residence
at Bridger.

WILL LOSE NO TIME.
School Board Will Push New School
Building.

Building.
Just as soon as the new board of
trustees of tho Billings school district
organize they will turn their atten-
ton to the matter of the new south
side school building. The board will
endeavor to have the work begun in
plenty Of time SO as to have the build
ing completed in time for the begin
ming Of the new school term, next fall.
The building in all probability will
be identical with the one erected OH
the north side last year, and such be-
ing the case the old plans can be used.
In addition to the new building, the
board will also expend several thou
sand dollars in completing the u on
the north side. When these two build
ings are completed, Billings will have
school facilities that will take rank
with any of those in the state.

Chairman Elders Speech

Gentlemen of the Convention:
We are assembled at a moment in
the history of the Republic and of our
party which is fraught with meaning
and with tragic interest. The opening
of the new century is brilliant with
national prosperity and with recent
and swiftly won victory. 1t is rendered
serious by great and worldwide re-
sponsibilities. 1t is hung with the SOM
bre emblems of an appalling tragedy.
In thanking you as | do, sincerely and
profoundly. for the distinction you
have conferred upon me in calling me
to preside over your deliberations to-
day. I cannot refrain from expressing
your regret and mine that we are de-
prived of the presence and the words
of the one whom we hoped would oc-
cupy this position. Gov Allen has
been a part of the events which have
led up to the significance of this oc-
casiOn. At first. as the associate of
the distinguished secretary of the de-
partment of the navy, and later, as
encouragement of Porto Rico, he has
brought new distinction to himself
and to the state. No one would have
rejoieed more sincerely than if cir
cumstances had permitted us to real
ize our anticipation of his presence.
AS it is, l have no disposition to dis
cuss at any length political or party
issues or policies. 1t is not the time,
nor IL there need to do so. AS a nation
we have been standing by the bedside
of the chieftain. Every hamlet and
every city of the great country be-
tween the oceans listened beside the
wire for the hurried throbbing of his
heart. They counted every breath in
his splendid struggle for life. They
scanned the physicians faces until
buoyant confidence sank to the hush
of the chamber of death.
The silver cord was loosed
And the golden bowl broken;
The pitcher broken at the fountain;
The wheel broken - the cistern.
Each man said to his neighbor, know
We not that there is a prince and a
great man fallen this day in Israeli"
The spectacle of a nations grief has
never been more vivid. With one ac-
cord men left their customary voca-
lions and did reverence to the dead.
The flag under which the soldier Presi-
dent had served and suffered dropped
at half-staff on every hill and in every
valley of the loyal and united country.
North WED with South and East with
West in homage TO the man and to the
chieftain of the republic. Every hour
the people followed the speeding train

We condemn all attempts that are

amendment of the Constitution and
urge that provision of this amend

ton.
Lynching and unlawful taking of life
must be stopped. How can we hope to
exterminate anarchy if such lawless-
ness be permitted or tolerated within
our borders?
