TeStifying before committee OF
the House of Commons, Monday,
Senator G.. A. Drummond Of Montreal
said he believed the only hope Of es-
cape frem the control Of the Ameri.
can shipping combine lay through
Canada. Therefore, he advocates a
speedy up.to-date service OF % knots
steamers between Great Britain and
Halifax instead OF New York. Such
a line ought to be subsidized to the
extent OF $500, 900 to 100000 year
ly for ten years, half payable by Great
Britain and half by Canada. There
after, be believed if judiciously man
aged, the line would be self support
ing. 1t would be advantageous to
both countries to cement the trade be-
tween Canada and Great Brltian.

STRUGGLED.
M%issoula and Cascade to Be subiec,
Of Resolutions by State Board
Of Equalization.

Helena, Aug. 25.-The county board
OF equalization of Cascade county has
evidently taken the bit in it's teeth
with respect to obeying the order of
the state board Of equalization re-
speeding increasing the valuation of
bank stock. The state board has been
officially advised that the county
board has refused to pay any atten-
ton to the state boards order and
the latter will draft and adopt a res
olution marking a further chapter in
the case.
The board met for a short time to-
day and considered briefly the case of
the commissioners or boards of euuali-
cation of Cascade and Missoula coun-
ties. the latter having refused to com
ply with the instructions of the state
board to put the valuation of the
county back whereNit was before the
board reduced 5 per zen the asses
sor's figures.
Clerk Ryan read a brief commune
cation from County Clerk and Record
er Vincent Fortune to the effect that
the resolution of the state board rel
alive to increasing bank stock had
been received and he was instructed
to reply that it would not be favorably
acted upon. It is understood that the
commissioners of Missoula county
are to meet tomorrow to draft a
resolution refusing to follow
the orders of the state board.
At the meeting of the state board
Attorney General Donovan
Will present resolutions effecting both
cases, which when adopted and for
warded to the respective county
will add to the gaiety Of the
scrap with the state board.

James Ash Files Answer to Suit Of
Government.
From Tuesdays Daily Gazette.
James Ash of this county, against
whom suit was instituted in the fed.
eral court at Helena, June %, by the
United States attorney for this dis.
trict charging him with having fenc-
ed government land, has filed his ar.
swer to the complaint. He denies
that he has Illegally enclosed a por-
ton OF the public domain or that he
has wrongfully excluded others from
its use and enjoyment.
The particular land specified in the
action consists of sections 16 and 81
and the larger parts of sections Is,
II, 20, %, q, % and 20, all in town.
ship 2, south, range rs, west.
Mr.. Ash in his answer to the com
plant is very emphatic in his denial
OF the charge. He says he does not
know anything about Danford filing
an affidavit with the United States
district attorney and admits that the
United States, as claimed, is the own
er of all the land specified in the
complaint with the exception of sec
ton 16, in which he says the United
States has no interest and did not
have when the complaint was filed.
The defendant further denies that
ne ever %wrongfully or unlawfully in
closed with a strong fence made of
posts and wire" any of these sections
and declares that none of that land
except section Is has been in his ex-
elusive use of occupation. He de-
MES that he ever, by concerted &C.
ton with any one else, prevented any
person from going on or passing
over any of this land except section
16.
He declares that the state rented
him this section on July II, 1899, for
$50 a year, giving him permission to
fence it. For these reasons he be-
lieves the complaint should be dis
missed.

more frequently constructive, a wom-

women who made a constant cutlery

who, as soon as they abandoned these

have a habit of mislaying themselves
just when they are needed the most.
The Invention which the picture repre-
sents is rather q novel way of keeping
the blotter in its place and may prove
q practical idea as well as a novelty.
1t is the intention of the inventor to
have 1t applied to the penholder In
such a manner that it shall follow tho
line of writing across the page as the
writer progresses, rolling over the let
ters and dryin them Immediately. The
frame which carries the plotting roller
is a screw clamp. which can be gripped
on the penholder in the proper posi-
ton, while the pivoted arm is allowed
to swing back and forth to keep the
blotter travelling in a straight line as
the pen rises and falls in forming the
letters. The device viii be found es-
pecially useful in writing large num-
Der of signatures, as it is only neces-
sary to let the roller follow the pen,
which is much easier than the opera
ton of lifting and depressing blotter

On the 4th of December, 1901, about
5:36 D. m, a fire ball of exceptional
brilliancy was observed in England.
1t gave a fash of dazzling intensity.
Illuminating the English Channel and
the south of England with a light
stronger than that of the full moon.
The fire ball had a bluish-green head
and it left train or streak of orange
red material. The position of the
meteor was observed by many per-
sons and its orbit has been computed
by Mr.. w. F. Denning. With the aid
OF a map a good idea of its course can
be had from the following figures at
beginning, ninety-one miles over Eng
fish Channel. eleven miles south Of
Bridport, Dorset. Height at ending,
fifty miles over English Channel, If
teen miles south of Needles, Isle of
Wight. Length of path, sixty-four
miles. Approximate velocity, twenty
one miles per second. Point in which
its path prolonged would reach the
earth, thirty-seven miles south of
Brighton. Height of streak. seventy
two to fifty-fve miles, and its length,
twenty-six miles.
