ASSESSMENT LAW AMBIGUOUS
Attorney General and His Predecessor
Fail to Agree as to Methods
to Be followed.

Especial to Inter Mountaino
Helena. June 1.-THE request for an
opinion from the attorney general on the
law in regard to assessing insurance
companies has developed a difference
between the present official and the late
attorney general as to the method to be
followed. NJ. Mettler assistant attorney
general, agrees with County Attorney
Mcconnell that an excess of premiums
over losses and expenses for the whole'
state should be divided among the coun-
ties in proportion to the amount of pre-
mihms for each county. Mr.. Nolan
says the calculation for each county
should be made regardless of the figures
for the rest of the state. All agree the
law is am biguous:

Helena, June 1.-THE county attorney
has discovered that there is no law for
the payment of the salary or even per
diem pay to the county surveyor.
The law of 1895 allowed him s. a day
for the time actually employed. The law
of 1897 cut this down to IS and limited
the aggregate for second class counties
to 81 500 year. but in 1899 this law was
repealed altogether, and the former law
was not revived.
Late County Surveyor j. H. Farmer
having been elected under the law of
1897, escaped the effect of the law of
1899, but 1t hits c. r. Hinsdale. the pres
ent surveyor very hard, for he can only
receive pay for the time employed in
surveying and plating county roads.
Other county surveyors will be in a
similar dilemma.

General Macarthur, despite his dis
tinction and his many successes, mod
estly prefers to speak the praises Of
others.
To naval officer whom he enter
tanned at Manila some time ago he
told a good story about Lieutenant j.
G. Gilmore, U. S. n, who was cap
tured with seven men of the York
town at Baler, Luzon Island, in April,
1899, by the Philippine insurgents and
held prisoners for months in the noun
tains.
One Of the prisoners, who spoke
Spanish fuently, was commanded to
translate into English decoy letters ad-
dressed "To Whom 1t May Concern"
stating that the bearers were warm
friends of the Americans, and had
failed in aiding them to escape only
because Of the vigilance Of the in
surgcnt guards.
1T was the intention" said General
Macarthur, ito have these letters used
whenever the bearers might be cap
tured by our forces, and also as pass
ports for spies Those experimenting
this literary coup had sufficient knowl-
edge Of English to make out the gem
eral sentiment Of the document.
Lieutenant Gilmore insisted" con-
tnued the General, that as chief Of
icer among the prisoners he be given
the privilege Of looking over what had
been written. Nodding approval over
each letter he added to each the word
Nit which the insurgents accepted

"It was not many years ago." says
Country Life in America, that peo-
pie lived in the suburbs as a matter of
economy. Now they live in these
parts because higher ideals may often
be attained here From reports per-
sonally obtained from twenty-eight Of
the largest cities in America, North
South East and West, it was shown
that during two recent years over
S420OOO,O0O had been incorporated and
spent in private purchases and the de-
velopment of lands adjacent to large
cities, for suburban operations. Over
$6OOOO,0OO have been voted and spent
by trolley and railroad companies to
extend their service beyonds the limits
of these cities. Nearly half a billion
dollars have, therefore, been invested

velopment Of suburban properties, in

HEROES AND HEROES.

Some moments are there in every life
When the spirit longs for rest;
When the heart is filled with bleak de-

When the weight of trouble, remorse and
care
Seems really greater than we can bear,
And death were a welcome guest.

But we crush il down and we go our way
To the duties that lie in wait.
From day to day we renew the fight,
To resist the wrong and to seek the right
To climb at last to the suncrowned height
And to climb Ger time and fate.
And thus-for my heart goes out TO them

To those who struggle hfe's path along,
The host of toll, who are patient, strong,
The unrewarded unnumbered throng,
Who are brave enough to live.

We've plaudits and tears for him who

Borne down in the shock Of strife;
But a word of cheer we neglect to say
To him who plods on his dreary way
And fights in silence from day to day

There's also courage required to meet

To strive with evil and not retreat;
To suffer and not to yield.

FRICHTFUL
ACCIDENT

Freight Yards.
PETE OLSON MANGLED
Under Box Car.-Arm and Leg Ampu-
tated.-Has a Small Chance
For Recovery.
PETE OLSON MANGLED

The local yards of the Great North
hich Peter Oleson, who is supposed
to have been crossing the tracks was
frightfully mangled and there is lit
tie hope of his recovery.
The man who's home is said to be
at Petersburg, N. D., was knocked
down near the ice house and dragged
almost q hundred yards to the freight
house before the car which had been
cut loose from the engine and kicked
back on the siding could be stopped.
The brakeman who was riding the
car onto the siding was not aware that
a man was being ground to pieces I'M
til to late to save him.
Oleson was taken from under the
car Just south of the freight house,
where he lay until the arrival of DIR.
Reed, who made hasty examination
as to his injuries.
1t was found that his left leg was
cut off about half way between the
knee, and ankle and the left arm was
simply crushed to a pulp at the ell
bow. There was wound in the
head fully six inches long which lay
bare the skull, another which looked
as though the skull had been crushed
in and cut over the right eye. His
ri hit leg and shoulder were badly
bruised and he is perhaps injured in
ternany. The mans face was black
from having been dragged in the sim
der ballast of the track.
While the physician was binding up
his leg and arm to stop the flow Of
blood, he was fully conscious although
suffering frightfully, and gave his
name and address. Having been put
On stretcher he was taken rapidly
to the hospital, where Doctors Camp
bell and Reed amputated the injured
leg and arm.
The injured man was with a com.
panion. who also gave the name Of
Oleson and both are said to have
been drinking. 1t is not known what
the men were doing in the city, but
they are said to have been employed
with snowplow crew in the noun
tains east of Kalispell.
l.ater-Peter Oleson died at an early
hour this morning. At no time was
there much hope of his recovery, as
he never rallied from the shock of the
accident.

flames burst from the stove into his
face and only quickness on his part
saved the loss of his sight. AS it
