A Confident YOUNG EDITOR
Anderson, the Park County Journalist,
Speaks enthusiastically of His
Home .0wn

nome AOW0.
NJ Anderson, editor OF the Living
ston Post. and one Of the shining lights
OF Montana Journalism, spent the Fourth
in Butte, taking day off from his heavy
editorial work to see the sights Of the
city. Mr.. Anderson is enthusiastic over
the present and future of Livingston,
every indication being that it will be one
Of the busiest towns in the state in the
not very far distant future.
las an Quitting place for the Ma
itional Park, we do great business
through the summer" said he. This
years travel is especially good. and all
those who have anything to do with
+ park travel are crowded with business.
The weather has been as warm as usual
for this time of the year, but that is
changing now. and the aggregate of park
travel will probably make new rec
ord.
There is much activity in the mining
districts that surround Livingston.
While we have no mines in or very near
the city, we send out about all the sup
plies for some very important camps,
and what benefits them benefits Liv
ingston. It is firmly believed by many
experts that the Bear Gulch district of
Park county will prove to be one Of the
really great mining camps Of the state.
There are other good ones, too, which de-
serve attention, for they are corners.
But the best news for Livingston is
the great addition to the Northern Pa
cific shops, which is to be built as soon
as the work can be completed. The plans
are about ready for the workmen to start
the building. When completed, the shops
will be the most modern in the west, and
will be equipped with machinery for the
| heaviest of locomotive work. The capa-
| city of the shops will be just doubled.
| The company will spend over a hundred
| thousand dollars in equipping the new
| departments and several hundred men
will be added to the force, besides the
large number Of men needed in the
| building Of the additions.
livingston property is worth having
these days. There is scarcely vacant
house in the city, and all previously
yearly building records will be broken
/ this year. We are having mild BOOM
/ but not growth that will die out and
leave property owners stranded. 1t is
| permanent, not mushroom growth, and
i Livingston will soon be among tbs
i leaders in Montana. And don't you for
i get 1t, either. If you have any surplu;
4 money to invest, you can't do better wit!
it than to buy property in Livingston
i Prices are going up rapidly, enough K
i insure a good return for investors

FELL DOWN ON A GOOD THING
A Bad Mixture of Luck and Affection
Makes Trouble at the Race
Track

Talking about lunches" remarked a
young man. as he walked up Broadway
this morning, Il had one yesterday that
was the real thing, and but for the
fact that it met with a slight accident
l would have been rich man. and
would have put several of the 'bookies'
at the track out of business.
- broke away from business long
enough yesterday to go out to the track,
where. for a long time. I watched the
horses run. Now. l make 1t practice
to refrain from betting on the various
events. as l know nothing about horses,
and do not like to bet on another mans
game anyway.
Late in the afternoon. while looking
over the programme of events. noticed
a name on the bill that startled me for
a moment. Had to run my eyes to make
sure I was not mistaken. and all that,
you know. There, in black type, was
the name of my best girl back east.
For time I was dazed, and then 1t
dawned upon me that it was the name of
one of the horses to run in the race about
TO be pulled off
Il lost no time in getting into the bet
ting ring, where l found that the horse
was quoted at long odds. She looked
pretty good to me, especially with the
name she bore, and I backed her to a
standstill. Had the bookies' writing
tickets until the crowd began to look
wise and follow me, and only quit when
all my cash was w. Well. when the
books closed I stood to win a comfort
able fortune.
My horse. Madge Black, we will cali
her, got off well in the lead, which po-
sit,on she maintained at the quarter, at
the half, at three quarters. In nay minds

BIG TIMBERS WOODEN MILL
Good Prospects for a Firm Advance in
Sweet Grass County's
ProsperitY.

E. M. Hall, county attorney of Sweet
Grass county, was a Butte visitor over
the Fourth. Crops and stock all look
Yell along the Yellowstone said Mr..
Hall. 1.-THE recent copious rains have
made the ranges as good as could be
desired, and both cattle and sheep are
doing finely. The sheep men are in the
midst of their shearing for which the
weather is fine indeed. The wool yield
is proving somewhat of a surprise, both
in quantity and quality. The open VIM
ter leaves the fleece in better condition.
with less sand and other filling than
hard winter. and the sheep thrived bet
ter. giving better growth.
Sweet Grass shepherds and flockmas-
tiers are hoping for something good from
the new wooden mill at Big Timber.
There seems to be no reason why we
could not make up our product here, in
stead Of shipping it to Boston, and then
back west in the form of cloth. The
difference in wages is the principal OBJ
lection to mills in the west, but the
freight both ways will pay at least a
part, perhaps all of that difference, and
we can build up our own part of the
country, instead of paying tributes to
the east in such matters.
big Timber will handle considerable
amount of wool this season, though part
of it may be re-shipped to the Billings
market. However, last years sales
| amounted to quite a large sum, and this
year will probably be evtn better.
considerable building is being done II

THE ACREAGE GROWS HEAVIER
Gradual Spreak of the Grain Belt Is
Creating Demand for Freight
Cars

The Northern Pacific is expecting to
have a great business in wheat hauling
this year. According to the crop reports
sent in from along the territory con-
tiguous to the road-in Minnesota and
the Dakotas-the wheat crop will be very
much larger than in previous years. The
acreage is larger, and the Indications are
that the yield will be larger also.
Acreage in the territory tributary to
our system has increased" said Vice
President j. NJ. Hannaford of the North
ern Pacific, but we do not look to this

Timber Lands,

According to the Associated Press
news today there is. going to be a
great upheaval in official circles in con-
nection with the timber prosecutions.
Not only are the men who bought tim
Der lands under alleged doubtful con-
ditions to be mulcted, but the interior
department officials, who either winke,i
at the alleged violations of the law or
who were reprehensibly ignorant of
such violations, are to be jacketed. The
proposition seems enlinently fair. It IS
evident that no man could have bought
timber lands in conflict with the laws
provisions without the knowledge o:
the land Office officials if they We're COM
petent and alert. If they We're neither,
then it is quite possible that many men
acquired title to timber land without
suspicion of wrong doing, naturally sup
posing that If the proper officials inter-
posed no objection the transactions were
legitimate and legal.
The Inter Mountain inclines to the be-
lief that an investigation will disclose
a small fire from which a vast cloud OF
smoke has arisen. 1t is only right that
the laws governing the acquisition OF
timber lands should be enforced No
good citizen objects to that. The forests
should be both reserved and preserved
for important public reasons. Along the
mountain watersheds and in all districts
where the melting of the snow requires
regulation to prevent spring floods and
the necessities of irrigation are para
mount, timber should be set apart and
spared the woodman's ak. Not only
that, but we believe that every man who
cuts down a tree should be made to
plant another, and that the forestry sys-
tenn of France and Germany should to
some extent be adopted in the United
States. However, under existing condi-
tions there are extremes beyond which
official zeal should not go. The develops
ment Of the mining industry requires a
great deal of timber. Without it mining
would be impossible. Within the pas
twenty years there have been Aaany
efforts made in Washington to stop the
cutting of timber, and frequently grave
charges were made and tremendous
sensation created without reason or jus.
tification. Generally set Of Boston
forestry cranks were found to be behind
the movement-men who were Mortified
at the sight of a telegraph pole or
pine board, and called down the wrath
of the government upon the men guilt,
= OF taking such pole Or board from the
virgin forests They quoted poetr
about the groves being Goods first tenn
ples.' and called it dissertation to chol
down a tree for industrial uses when !:

Grover Cleveland once proposed to stol
the production of silver by shutting OF
the timber supply and thus closing tn
mines. Possibly the sentimentalists ar
behind the present movement, an
though this newspaper would shield n
man deliberately guilty of violating tn
timber laws, care should be taken i
protect rightful claimants from injur

OBITUARY.,

On Jan. 7th the spirit of Barney Aid
er, Sr., winged its way to its maker,
MIR, Alder was in his S6th year.
Several years ago he professed religion
but never formally united himself with
any church, yet through all these years
he maintained his integrity and took a
deep interest in everything pertaining
to the moral uplifting of his community.
He was friend to all churches sup
porting with his means and entertain
ing all ministers with generous hos
pitaliUy. For twelve monts he was af-
flicted SO that to lie down to rest was
impossible, yet through all this suffer
ing he was ready to 60, he prayed for
the Lord TO take him.
Faithful and skilled physicians, a
good W fe, devoted children and kind
neigh bors did all in their power to re-
lieve his sufferings and restore his
health, but to no purpose. just before
dawn the summons came and without a
groan or struggle he closed his eyes
upon earth to open them, as we believe,
upon the glories of heaven.
The presence of large number of
friends and relatives at the burial tes-
titled to the esteem in which he was
held. His remains were laid to rest in
Sard's cemetery to await the resurrect-
ion.
"He is not dead, he wakes to fairer be-
ing,
The arc is rounded to perfect whole;
Beyond the gates, o bliss beyond all
dreamingl
Hopes full fruition dawneth on his
soul" ], w. B.

Deafness CANNOT be Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con,
dition OF the mucous lining OF the Eos
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumpling sound of
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is theresult, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
cond ton. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nihe cases out of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
iniamed condition Of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
