sto~ on senator PIatf.

During a recent session. of the SEN
ate committee on finance the question
of abolishing the revenue tax upon ex-
press money orders came up for dis
cussion. The senators were not IA
miliar with the express money order
business, and Senator Plat of New
York, who, as most people know, is
president of the United StatesSExpress
company, offered to enlighten them.
Accordingly, he excused himself.for a
moment and went to a neighboring
office of his company, whereshe found
a young clerk of whom he demanded
an express order for the sum of 5
cents. The boy was astonished at the
smallness Of the amount.
Yes" Senator Platt repeated, t.I
a a money order for 5 cents. I am
the president of this company
The boy rushed into the private Office
of the company's agent.
"Say," he exclaimed, there's an old
gentleman outside who says hes the
president of the company and he
wants an order for 5 cents. Tmsafraid
to give it to him for fear he'1l5raise It."
The agent appeared, and Senator
Plat got his order, and in due time
the, members of the committee were
enlightened as to the express money
order business.

Letter to States Senator
Call Describes Its D~esoIatton.
Wilkinson Call, ex-United States SEN
ator from Florida, has received a letter
from a friend in Jacksonville which
reads as follows, says the New York
Times:
Our once beautiful city is now but
q mass of ruins, and our dear old
homes, wherein we spent SO many hap
py hours, are now laid in ashes. This
Is a terrible blow to my old mother and
father, as III home was the only means
left to us to make a living by renting
rooms and taking boarders. We lost
everything save a few clothes. We
have not been able to get our Insurance
yet.
"There was SIS. 900, 900 worth Of prop
erty destroyed and only $4,000, 900
worth of insurance-$1O,O 100000 worth
Of property that there was not a cent
Of insurance on. There were 455 acres
Of houses destroyed, and there are now
10000 people homeless. This will. give
you some idea of the extent of the fire.
Every church, white or colored, was
burned. 1t beggars description. No
one can appreciate the extent of the ca
lamity without seeing for themselves.
sour once lovely city now looks like
an immense graveyard, and the tall
chimneys stand like monuments to
mark the spots Of once happy homes.
and the handsome oak trees, covered
with their green leaves, the pride of
our dear little city, are now but a mass
Of black and charred trunks. 1t is in
deed a sad spectacle.
eve had to take refuge across the
river the afternoon of the fire to keep
from being burned to death, as we
were cut off from Springfield, and that
was the only way for us to escape"

The TRAFFIC PROBLEM.
James J. Hills View of the Stu
alton and It's Future.
BIG INTERNATIONAL CONTEST ON.

1t Is a Fight ON the High Seas, Says
, h Great Northern Railways Pres
tdent, and Is Not LocaI-Great Stru4-
gle Coming For Trade With the
Far East.
James J. Hill, president Of the Great
Northern railroad, talked to q New
York World correspondent at Minneap-
oils the other day about the transporta-
ton problem of the world and of the
activity among the railroads for traffic.
President Hill stated positively that
the purchase Of the Burlington had
been accomplished by the Northern
roads. He said:
"The condition that two-thirds of the
Burlington shares be deposited for e1-
change for Great Northern-Northern
Pacific bonds on or before May 20 has
been more than met. In fact. 95 per
cent of the shares had been deposited
with the directors on May Is, when l
left New York.
The fight is on the high SEAS" said
President Hill. 1.-THE great traffic con-
test is between the Pacific on the one
hand and the Suez canal and Cape
Horn on the other.
ut is not a fight between this section
or city or road or the other-at least SO
far as I am concerned. It is 8 big
question Of traffic development. 1t is a
question Of commercial development
and Industrial development for the
country at large. Our competitor is
not here, not in New York, not in San
Francisco. He is on the high seas.
Our fight is national, or, rather, it Is in
ternational. Our problem is to get hold
of the commerce Of the Pacific ocean
and bring it across the Pacific and
across the United States instead of al
lowing it to be diverted around the
globe via the Suez canal and Cape
Horn.
During the next 80 years we may
grow to 10000 200. What shall we
do with this population? Not over
one-third, or 5O,OOO,O OO, can be employ
ed in manufactures, ~railroading, trades
and the professions. The bulk of the
remaining 100, 100000 must 60 to the
land.
1.-THE great increase Will be In the val
leys Of the Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri
and westward, the fertile pYaiYaes of
the great central west and beyond.
wherever irrigation is possible. Now,
then, what will these 10O,OOnOOO on
the land of the west producer Food,
will they not?
"The millions Of people cross the
Pacific are able to buy principally only
what they are compelled to buy to sus-
tain life-food, just the product which
h present coming population of Amer
ica's great central and western zone is
prepared to furnish.
"The next questions are: How shall II
be handled? By what route shall 1t
go? Shall America handle it or Eu-
rope? Will it go by the Pacific or by
the Suez and the Horn? l hope that
America will handle it and by the Pa
ciic. Geography and nature declare 1t,
and trade cannot resist them.".

A HOME FOR
AGED MASONS
NasOns Will Meet in Helena This
Month and Dispose Of This
Important Question.

Judge Cornelius Hedges, secretary
of the Masonic grand lodge, is sending
out notices of the annual meetings of
the Masonic bodies, which will be held
in Helena this month. The several
meetings promise to be unusually we'll
attended and to be sessions of more
than ordinary interest.
The 14th annual cOnclave of the
grand commandery, Knights Templar,
will be held in the Capital city Sept.
10; the 18th annual convocation of the
grand chapter of Royal Arch Masons
will be held Sept. 18th; the 37th an
nual communication of the grand lodge
will be held Sept. lS and 19, and the
18th communion of the grand chapter
OF the Order of the Eastern Star will
take place Sept. 20.
The principal business before the
Masonic grand lodge will be the con-
sideration of the report of the special
committee appointed last year at Great
Falls to receive and recommend a To-
cation foI the site of a Masonic home it
| is proposed to build and maintain in
| the state.
The Masons propose to build and
equip home for INDECENT members of
the order. The plan was discussed
at the meeting of the grand lodge last
year at Great Falls, but no conclusions
| were reached then.
The grand lodge has only Sill, 600
available for the purpose of building
home and the proposition to erect and
maintain a home will he opposed by
AN element in the grand lodge, which
is of the opinion that nothing should
be attempted until there is a larger
fund at the disposal of the Masons for
that purpose. On the other hand,
many Of the Masons believe that a site
should be selected now and building
secured as soon psssible.

OPEN SEASON FOR GAME.
Monday Marked the Beginning SUM
mary of the Law Regulating
Hunting and Fishing.

Monday marked the beginning of the
open season on all birds and big game
OF Importance. Game is reported as
being unusually scarce in this locality:
probably due to the severe hail storms
experienced the fore part of the season
when many of the birds were too young
to withstand the storms, Verv few, if
any, of our local sportsmen have vet
taken advantage of the opening season,
but it is Il safe prophesy that they will
soon be in evidence and bag their share
of the feathered tribe.
For the benefit of those contemplate
ing availing themselves of the sport,
following is the briefest summary DOS
OF the state game and fish law, which
those who do not possess it in full,
would dc we'll to cut out and paste in
their hats:

dent. Yves Laughlin sustained the loss
of four toes on his left foot yesterday
evening.
Mr.. Laughlin, accompanied by ]. r.
DeBerge. was returning from work on
the north side about six O'Clock last
evening and to do SO had to cross the
railroad track. There being freight

time, they were compelled to climb
through or await the removal of the
train, the former of which they chose.
Mr.. DeBerge accomplished the feat
successfully, but when Laughlin made
the attempt and was between the cars,
the train suddenly backed up, and
his foot being on the drawheads at
the time, the jar caused it to slip
between them, with the above result.
His foot was pinioned and not until
the train had been signalled by a
brakeman to move up, was he able to
remove the injured member.
He was Immediately taken to the
office Of DR.. Wilson, who, assisted by
DR. Butler, found it necessary to am
