A meeting is to be held at Helena
on March IA and Is for the purpose
of organizing state agricultural So
ciety. Those having this matter in
hand do not consider the possibility
of organizing a fair association in
connection with the agricultural So
ciety, the purpose being merely to
organize a society that will meet at
stated times and discuss the best
method in which to promote the agri-
cultural development of the state at
large The fair matter may come up
later The following extracts have
been selected from a. number of let
ters received regarding this matter:
''I am heartily in sympathy with
any such movement. %. S. Warden,
Manager Tribune, Great Falls, Mont.
81 am heartily IN favor of the or
ganization of a state agricultural So
ciety Il. D. UDonnel, Billings,
Mont.
q am heartily IN sympathy with
the movement to organize state
agricultural society. | think that unity
along that line would be of great
benefit to the farming community OF
Montana. All other lines of import
ance in the state are thoroughly or
ganized. Hence obtaining much ad
vantage to themselves. The agricul
tural interests should in the next few
years take a leading place among the
industries of the state. This can be
greatly aided by united efforts. j
Ell Edwards, Kalispell, Mont.
This is a good move and should
receive encouragement from all who
are interested in the advancement OF
our state. IS. G. Murray, Missoula
Mont.
81 think it all important that we
unite to promote the agricultural de
velopment of this great state. This
have been advocating for severa
years. The securing of farmers in
stitute law was good move and il
is now being appreciated. r. N

SHERIFF HAND RETURNED.
Brings Back Prisoner From Spo-
kane.

Brings Back a Prisoner From Spo-
kane.
Sheriff T. c. Hand returned |
Thursday night from Washington,
where he has been in search of Rob- |
erts and Turner, the two men wanted
for completely in the theft of num-
Der of cattle from the reservation, |
for which crime John Lang, Jr., is
now under arrest. On the night of
the arrest of Lang, Sheriff Hand and
John Herman went to Spokane on
information furnished them, to the
effect that Turner and Roberts had
shipped their saddles to that place on
the Saturday before the arrest and
had sent word that they would call
for them.
On their arrival in Spokane the
tanned that the saddles were there
and that two men had called for
them, but after some talk decideu
not to take them, but said they would
call the next day. Wednesday night,
while In search of their men, Sheriff
Hand and Herman entered a gam
| bling house where the latter's atten-
ton was attracted by the suspicious
actions of one of the men at the
tables, who, when they entered the
room, sought to hide his face by
drawing his sweater over the lower
portion and pulling his hat down over
his eyes. Herman watched the man,
| he ,tri1 a 70
one of the fugitives, and from dis
lance decided he was the man
wanted.
Shortly after they entered the
room the man left the table where
he was sitting and after stopping for
short time at another table he
started to leave the room, but was
stopped at the door and placed under
arrest He vehemently denied ever
seeing Hand or Herman before and
claimed that he was never in this
section or the country Hand did
not know either of the men wanted
and was going on the description
gained before leaving KalispelI. Her
man had seen both Roberts and Tur-
ner, and while he was not positive,
he was of the opinion that the man
under arrest was one of the two.
When questioned the prisoner said
his name was T. F. Parker and that
before coming to Spokane he had
worked at Montpelier, Ida. Wednes-
day night he was kept in custody
and the next day he was taken to
the depot, where the baggageman
positively identified him as one OF
the men who had called for the sad
dies. On mis- he was taken to the
Spokane Jail and locked up, with di
rections to allow no one to see him.
Then the officers took up the trail
of the other man and followed j
over the MAJOR portion of Washing
ton Idaho and Oregon, going as fal
west as the Pacific coast, but with
out success. Wednesday they separ
ated, Herman continuing the chase
: and Sheriff Hand returning to thi
city with the prisoner. When seel
at the Jail by different parties WHIT
knew Roberts and Turner, it was
: found that he was not the NAL
l wanted.
The resemblance is striking ant
: this, coupled with Parker's suspi
+ cious actions upon seeing Herman
y together with his positive identif
: cation by the Daggageman, causes
. the mistake. 1t is thought that h
is aware of the whereabouts of tn
two men and that they had hired hin
to get the saddles from the depot
Parker is evidently acquainted wit
: the insides of a Jail and takes hi
arrest coolly and as matter @
5 course.
