A special to the Montana Daily
Record from Havre, Nov. 6, says
''Lawlessness in northern Montana, ,es.
pecial1y in Valley and Chouteau coun.
ties, must cease. The kidnapping o1
Ranchman King by the notorious des.
peradoes, Jones, Nelson and Clutch
Henry, in Valley county has aroused
the law abiding citizens in these coun-
ties and determined action will be
taken.
The experience of King in Valley
county is not an incentive for settlers
to seek homes in that section.
Superintendent J. H. O'Neil of the
Montana division of the Great North
ern road had a conference with Judge
Tattan few days ago and as result
the county commissioners of Valley
county have offered standing reward
of $500 for the capture, dead or alive,
of either or all of the desperadoes who
were the abductors of King.
These men are known to be the
last of an organized gang in northern
Montana. The Kid Curray gang in
Chouteau county has been pretty we'll
cleaned up, and the statement so gen.
orally reported that Kid Curry has a
host of friends in Chouteau county is
largely exaggerated, and is due more
ty the fact that in a country still So
sparsely settled it would be foolhardy
for few ranchmen to invite open hos
tilities with Curry or any of his
friends.'

Thanksgiving Proclamation Issued.

The president has issued his annual
Thanksgiving proclamation in the fol-
lowing terms:
BY the President of the United States
of America A Proclamation: The
season is at hand when, according to
the custom of the people, it falls upon
the president to appoint a day of praise
and thanksgiving to God. During the
last year the Lord has dealt bounti-
fully with us, giving us peace at home
and abroad and chance for our citi-
zens to work for their welfare, unhin-
dered by war or famine. It behooves
us not only to rejoice greatly because
of what has been given us, but to ac-
cept it with solemn sense of responsi.
bility, realizing that under heaven it
rests with ourselves to show that we
are worth to use Alright what has thus
been entrusted to our care.
In no other place and at no other
time has the experiment of the govern
ment of the people, by the people and
for the people been tried upon so vast
scale as here in our own country in the
opening years of the twentieth century,
Failure would not only be a dreadful
thing for us, but dreadful thing for
all mankind, because it would mean
loss of hope for all who believe in the
power and the Righteousness of liberty.
Therefore, in thanking God for the
mercies extended to us in the past, we
beseech him that he may not withhold
them in the future and that our hearts
may be aroused to war steaufastly for
good and against all forces of evil,
public and private.
We pray for strength and light, so
that in the coming years we may with
cleanliness, fearlessness and wisdom
do our allotted work on earth in such
manner as to show that we are not al
together unworthy of the blessings we
have received.
Now, therefore, l, Theodore Roose-
welt, president of the United States, do
hereby designate as day of general
Thanksgiving, Thursday, the Goth of
the coming November, and do recon-
mend that, throughout the land, peo-
pie cease from their wonted occupations
and in their several homes and places
of fworship render thanks unto Almighty
God for his manifold mercies.
In witness wereof ! have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed
Done at the City of Washington this
31st day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand nine hundred and
three and of the independence of the
United States the one hundred and
twenty eighth.

lN LAST weeks issue we published
regulations under which permits will
be granted for the grazing of stock
in the Medicine Bow Forest Reserve.
In addition to the regulations given
in that article we learn that no owner
of sheep will be allowed more than
one band in the reservation aud those
must consist of only ewes and lambs,
as weathers and dry ewes do So much
travelling, and are consequently more
of a detriment to the forest. The
decision to allow only one band from
each person or company was in order
to allow the greatest possible number
of hockmasters to be benefited by the
privilege to allow more than that
number would be to urn the reserve
over to three or four men. The mum
Der of sheep that will be grazed there
this season will be 10000. When we
come to consider that the number
last year was from 225,O00 to 100000,
it will be quite evident that the prob
ability of damage will be very much
lessened over former years.

The strike of boiler makers on the

Gainesville, Ca, June Just after
the noon hour the city was struck by
a terrific cyclone, killing about 100
persons, unroofing the city hall,
other large buildings and destroying
the Gainesville cotton mills. The
greatest loss of life is reported in the
history of cotton mills. About 80
people are reported killed and scores
injured. Nearly every employe in
the Gainesville cotton mill was killed,
including a large number of chill
dren. The Southern depot was torn
to pieces, and the Gainesville Brass
works were demolished. Several peo-
pie persisted in the wreck.
The Gainesville Cotton mills were
blown down, the old Piedmont hotel,
now used as school house and
apartment house, was RACED and half
a dozen or more people were killed
in it. Five colleges, school house
and church were blown away in
the negro section of the city. Five
brick stores on the Main street of
| Gainesville were swept away. In all
| 200 buildings were demolished here.
| The tornado went from Gainesville
to New Holland and it is believed
that many people were killed there.
The tornado first hit the town below
the Southern railway depot. Before
any one realized what was happen.
ing, it had ripped down brick build
ings, frame houses, churches and
school buildings as if they had been
structures of paper, one of the first
large buildings to fall was the cotton
mill, threestory structure. The
third and second stories were shaved
off smoothly and it is believed thai
every person at work in them per
ished.
About 500 were working in thu
building, but great number of then
were in the lower stories, and es
capped.

SAWMlLL BURNED.
Fire Wrecks the Schagel-klingen-
smith Plant at Athens.

Schagel & Klingensmith' saw mill
at Athens was burned to the ground
Sunday afternoon, entailing loss OF
over $4,000, with no insurance. Fire
is supposed to have started in the
engine room, but the exact cause is
not known, as there was no one pres
ent at the time Mr. klingensmith
was one of the first to notice the fire
when it was confined to the engine
room, but before he could get help,
the entire building was ablaze. The
building was built of dry timber and
burned like paper, putting at def
ance all attempts to subdue 1T. Only
what lumber was in the building was
burned, the other piles being out OF
reach of the flames. The machinery
was badly damaged, but it is thought
some of it may be of use, but the
majority will be useless. Mr.. Schage
was at home in this city, and did moi
know of his loss until after the ar
rival of No. 4, when he at once made
preparations to go to the mill, an(
left On No. 3.
The mill had been running but
short time having been built las
fall. and the loss is severe one t
the owners, who were just beginnin
to reap the benefits of their har
work and expenditure of considerable
money. About 40 men were en-
ployed, and the fire will throw theI
out of employment. 1t is probabl
that steps will be taken to rebuilt
at once, although nothing definit
can be learned until the owners r
turn to Kalispell.

him for a deer and, after shooting
him, made no mention of it.
The perfect condition Of the body

it's discovery lifts a weight off the
