WARNING TO CAMPERS.
Carelessness in Starting Fires is Pun.
ishable.

carelessness in Starting Fires is Pun.
ishable.
The following extract from the law
in regard to forest fires should be of
interest to any one thinking of taking
a fishing or camping trip. or to any
person who starts a fire in the woods.
The law under which prosecutions
will be made does not necessarily re-
quire malicious intent in starting a
fire to secure punishment; careless
ness only being necessary to warrant
a conviction. For the benefit of per-
sons starting fires for camp or other
purposes in timber it would be we'll
to bear in mind the following section
of the statute covering prosecutions
for forest fire setting:
Every person who carelessly sets
fire to any timber. woodland or grass,
except for useful or necessary pur-
poses, or who at any time makes a
camp fire, or lights fire for any pur-
pose whatever. without taking suffi-
cient steps to secure it from spreading
from the immediate locality where
the same is used. or fails to extin-
guish such fire before leaving it, is
punishable by Imprisonment in the
county Jail not exceeding one year, or
by fine not exceeding two thousand
dollars, or both"

Country Judge Who Talked Cow to

Country Judge Who Talked Cow to
Farmers Reversed on Appeal.
A farmer in an eastern state sued
railroad for $4,000 for damages sus.
tanned and the case was tried in the
county court before a jury of his
peers. But after hearing the evidence
the jury could not agree. They dis
cussed the issues for an hour and then
reported to the Judge. who sent them
back for the night.
The jury still couldn't agree the
next morning and said so. Then the
judge made them little speech This
Is the principal part of what he said ::
Twelve men, who should have no
interest in this case, except only to do
what is right between the parties,
should not be struggling and failing
to agree. 1t is disastrous to the par
ties to retry case over and over, and
the jury fail to reach a verdict. l GER
tainly hope that there are no stub
born men on this jury. There ought
not to be. It is the only case for a
jury to be tried at this term, and IN
my judgment there should not be a
failure of this character If I were
a juror, and quite large proportion of
my fellows were against me, and
was standing out, and I thought that
they were honest AMI fair, the first
thing I would do would be to get be.
fore large looking glass and look at
myself and see if l could not find out
what was the matter with me.
IF I should say I want you to get
together and I want you to name
some certain COW that combines all
the best qualities for an average COW,
and you cannot have bit of butter
or milk until you do so, how long do
you think you would be out? l be-
lieve, gentlemen, that you can agree.
There is no doubt about it in my mind.
If you do not agree before half past
~ O'Clock the sheriff will give you
your dinners, and if you do not agree
before half past he will give you
your suppers. shall instruct him to
take care of you, and I will not de-
prive you of your milk because you
haven't yet agreed about this cow"
The jurors retired after that and
presently agreed that the plaintiff
ought to get the verdict. The COM
pany appealed, and the higher court
set aside the verdict and ordered
new trial, on the ground that such
language from the bench constituted
coercion, applying the rule that Ian
guage on the part of the court, the OBJ
vious tendency of which is to coerce
an agreement on the part Of the Jury.
affords ground for a new trial"

DONOVAN PLEASED WITH
FLATHEAD COUNTY
From, a Farmers Standpoint

es to Discuss Gambling.
Judging by what we read in the Hell
ena papers, Flathead county has been
honored with the presence of the at
torney general, but strange to say,
while many eyes in this neighbour
hood have been straining to catch
sight of him, he seems to have come
and gone undiscovered. The infOr-
nation that Mr.. Donovan has visited
the county is fine illustration of the
adage as to going from home to
hear news. Here is what we find in
the Herald:
Attorney General Donovan has re-
turned from hurried trip to Flathead
county, where he went on official bust
ness. The attorney general when ask
ed today if he went to investigate the
reports of the gambling law being vio-
lated there, replied that he did not
care to discuss the subject for publ
cation, but might do so later.
THE country looks very promising
from the standpoint of the farmer
said Mr.. Donovan. The evidences of
fine crops of grain and excellent
yields of fruit and potatoes are every
where That is very prosperous
community and will in time be thick
ly populated with industrious farm
ers and fruit raisers. I was surprised
to note how rapidly the country is be-
ing settled up"
And then comes the Record with
story of how some one from this town
has been stirring up the attorney gen
erals office with stories Of alleged
law-breaking here:
Somebody from Kalispell informed
the attorney general regarding the al
legged existence Of gambling at that
place, but the identity of this person
is not known. It is not even officially
announced that someone from that
town appeared at the attorney gen.
erals Office and gave that official the
information which sent him posthaste
to the town.
Among the. state officials it is gen.
eral talk that the attorney general
took the trip upon information given
him personally. What he accomplish
ed is not known. He returned to the
city yesterday, but had nothing to tell
regarding gambling"
Now, wouldn't that discourage you!
While the residents of this enterpris-
ing town have been awaiting with Gag.
erness the advent of the states high
legal Misunderstanding an opportu-
nifty to escort him around town with
the band and demonstrate to his COM
plete and lasting satisfaction that the
stories of gambling in Kalispell are
purely imaginary-here we are told
that the bird has come and flown and
none of us one whit the wiser.
OF course there is the possibility
that the Helena papers may have been
worked" and put on the wrong trail;
and it may be put down as libel on
the acuteness of our citizens to say
that the attorney general could come
and go without someone observing
him. In fact, it is current rumor that
when he comes, some people will not
only spot him instantly, but exercise
every energy in lodging an interview

TALES FROM THE TIMBER.

Gust Moser, superintendent of the
Lewis & Clark forest reserve with
headquarters at Ovando, on the
Blackfoot, came to Kalispell yester-
day on a special mission. He made the
trip of 200 miles in seven days over
the toughest mountain trail that ever
a pack was carried. Most of the way
was down the south fork of the Flat
head and was principally between
fallen timber and boulders Gust has
been for nearly five years pesticating
through the mountains as supervisor,
but says the last experience was a bad
one. The greatest pest he encoun-
tered was the timber gnat, called by
the Indians ''no-see-'em," an insight
ficant monster about as big as the
head of pin. whose bite is poison
and raises welt equal to the blow of
knout.
