Kougarok bench claims are promis- ing. This is not to be wondered at, as many competent mining men who have examined Seward peninsula have pre- dicted that in the benches and hills would be found the best paying mines. The Nome bench claims have already attained prominence, and bench claims in Council, Fairhaven, Port Clarence and other sections have received atten- tiOn.
 The KougarOk district, however, ever since 1900, has been ''passed up like 8 white chip," except possibly for two or three claims on Dahl creek, which are known to be good, because they have produced results.
 Now comes the news, well authenti-

a JUST MEASURE.

Helena Record: Three Republican
members OF the house have done
good work in passing the general Ii.
ability law, or what is more popular
ly known as the fellow servant bill.
Chairman Graham and the members
of the committee on labor have placed
the bill in form that is fair to all in
terests. The bill as presented by the
committee is a copy of the law that
has been in force in Iowa for many
years and has proyeI satisfactory in
that state, as being just and fair to
employers and employees. In addition
to the provisions Of the Iowa law,
however, the committee has wisely
added TO the Montana bill a provision
including workingmen in mines and
reduction works.
The Republicans have IN this mat
ter redeemed another Of the pledges
made to the people by doing their part
towards securing protection for the
workingmen of this state, through a
measure which lnflicts no hardship
or injustice to anyone.

MORE U S WANTED.

As spring approaches it becomes
more apparent that there will be a
great demand for residences of the
smaller class, Already there are sew.
eral families seeking in vain for
dwellings.
While the prospects are not good
for much building for business pur-
poses, there is great need of dwelling
houses. and the field is an inviting
n to men Of means. We invite
some of u wealthy stockmen who
will eventually make their homes in
the metropolis nf Central Montana
to invest a few thousand dollars in
l.cwistown real estate. They would
supply a pressing need and realize
good interest on the investment.
There are many new corners who
are not able to build homes at once
and ii they were the uncertainty of
their residence would prevent them
from mourning the expense.
There are a number of residences
already under way but such have
been spoken for well in advance of
their completion. II is to be hoped
that the demand will be met in this
important matter and that no one will
leave our city because of his inability
to become properly domiciled.

this state can offer a valid objection
to the law.
The only opposition to this measure
comes from the United Copper com
pany OF Butte and it is making a
strong effort to defeat the bill, using
every subterfuge it can marshal in
the undertaking, MOI being able to
present a sound argument against Its
passage. This strenuous opposition
in itself, does not speak well for the
justice OF its cause. If At sns only
its rights there Is nothing in this law
to prevent the company from getting
what it demands.
The people of Montana are growing
weary of this litigation and the cor
ruption attending It ana if the present
legislature can do anything to purify
the courts and straighten out the le-

II now looks as il the federal senate
would reach a compromise in the
statehood bill and admit two states,
one to be Oklahoma, according to its
present boundaries, with a proviso
that Indian territory shall be added to
Oklahoma in 1906, when the treaty
obligations with the Indians will not
be in the way. The other state is to
be composed of New Mexico and Ari.
IONA. under the name of Montezuma,
with the proviso that when the pres

lation of 100000 people, 1t shall be.
come a separate state. provided that
the people affected vote in favor Of
being divided from New Mexico.

SOME DANGER AHEAD.

The Minneapolis journal, in a we'll
written article upon the industrial sit.
uation. takes the optimistic view of
the outlook on the whole but points
out some dangers that threaten the
country. In the course of its remarks
the Journal says:
Labor is actively employed at the
highest wages on record, and the only
element of warning in the industrial
world is the large Increase in the cost
of production. This Is a factor that
sooner or later must arrest develop
ment and bring us into closer compe-
tition with foreign producers. where
cost of labor and materials is much
cheaper. Such a reduction is not yet
in sight, but it is not far distant. and
may come sooner than expected il
these costs are pushed any higher.
The moment production oyertaKes
consumption the reaction will begin,
and ii can only be delayed by prudent
control of both capital and labor"
1t cannot be denied that the wage
scale is the highest W reached in
this country and as wages cut the
largest figure in the production of
manufactured articles. such articles
must be advanced to meet the rising
wage scale. OF this there is some
murmuring on the part of a great
class of consumers not directly inter
ested as beneticiaries though all will
concede that a fair wage scale is a
benefit TO all. 1t is simply a matter
of justice and fairness, n the dang
er lies in the OVERRIDING of a good
thing because OF the confident power
to do ii. In this matter the rights OF
all must be respected in order to
avoid the shoals that may Turk be-
meath the surface in u industrial
progress.

II would seem that a cloture rule
would be a good thing to have in
every legislative body. The idea that
a man may be permitted to talk in
cessantly for hours and days in order
to prevent a vote being taken on a
bill is most ridiculous. 1t is bad
enough in the federal senate and
much worse in the upper body of a
state legislature. II this is not deny
ing majority rule it is difficult to de.
fine the nature of such a proceeding.
No doubt. a good deal of bad legisla-
ton has been prevented in this way,
hut on the whole ii is a dangerous
practice and one that should be dis.
pensed with. FliDustering should
moi be- permitted in order to defeat a
bill.

RUTH DEAD.
Youngest Child of Judge and Mrs. E.
X. Cheadle Buried Today.

Little Ruth Cheadle, youngest child
of Judge and Mrs. E. X. Cheadle, died
at 4:30 o'clock yesterday morning of
capillary bronchitis. The little girl
had not been entirely well since an
attack of scarlet fever which she had
several weeks ago but until a few
hours of her death she was not
thought to be seriously i'll. Alarming
symptoms were noticed during the
night and everything possible was
done to save her but without avail.
The funeral services were held from
st. James Episcopal church this
morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. A. w.
Bell, assisted by Rev. Albert Pfaus,
officiating. Little Ruth was two
years old last November and was a
general favorite with all who knew
her. The news of her death was re.
ceived with much sorrow by the
friends and acquaintances Of the
Cheadle family who have the sin.
cerest sympathy of all in their great
loss.

WOODEN MILL SECURED
Great Falls Is at Last Assured of the
Coming of a Good Plant.

Great Falls is at last to have a
wooden mill. That sort of news has
been sent u before, on divers occa-
sions, but it seems that in the present
instance the enterprinsing business
men in the Falls have almost assured
themselves of the actual coming of
the mill before announcing the fact.
1t is stated that the mill which is To-
Gated at Manchester, Ia, has been
bought and all papers to the transfer
signed up. The mill is described as a
good one and has turned out the best
of material for several years past.
Sam II. Wood of the Cooperative
Ranch company of Great Falls which
is the principal factor in securing the
plant for Great Falls, will arrive in
the city soon for the purpose of Sc
lecting a site for the new mills. The
company has purchased 100 acres OF
land on the Sun river about six miles
from the city and it is thought that
the plant will be located there. All
OF the people working the mill at pres
ent will come to Montana with the
plant so there will be no experiment
ing in running the plant.

MEvERlCKS WIN OUT.
Championship Bowling Games End

The race for the laurel of the bowl
ing championship Of Lewistown and,
incidentally, three very pretty and
unique medals, offered by Young &

alleys, was finished sunday afternoon
and the now famous Mavericks came
under the wire winners by several
lengths. The race started the lat
ter part of November. with four en-
tries, viz; Americans. S~hamrocks,
Defenders and Mavericks.
For the first quarter the running
was about even. The defenders got
the rail and lead by a small margin,
the Shamrocks second and the Am
orleans and Mavericks alternating as
the real guard. In the second quar-
ter the Mavericks spurred up, passed
the gallant green and when the half
mile post was reached were closing
up strong on the apparently invincible
Defenders. The American team,
which was scarcely fit for a full mile,
not having had many tryouts before
going in, pulled up lame just before
the three quarter post was reached
and the S~hamrocks, belonging to a
generous race, stopped to comfort
their beaten friends. 1t vas 10 be.
