Republicans of Montana
Officially Denounce Peabody.

The following is the leading plank
of the platform adopted by the Mon
tana state Republican convention,
held at Billings in August:
1--WE; stand for the strict and i'm
partialprotection of the constitutional
rights Of every citizen, and the strict
and impartial enforcement of the law
We deplore the tumult and lawless-
ness which has existed in some of
our sister states. No invasion OF the
rights Of citizens should be tolerated
by whomsoever committed, whether
by the public officials or by organized
bodies, or by mobs or lawless indi-
viduals. Excesses or violations OF
law by. one party beget reprisals.
We condemn II measured terms the
deporta ton or destruction Of citizens,
either singly or in large numbers,
without trial or without the authority
of law. While we have no apprehen-
sion of any occurrences happening in
Montana similar to those which have
recently distressed some sister COM
mOnwealths, we do pledge all repub-
lican officials and pledge our party in
an impartial enforcement of the laws
of Montana without fear or favor"

QUEER FRONTIER EXPERIENCE
why . Western Pioneer Family Had
TO Pick Their wheat Over,
kernel by Kernel.

In narating the frontier expe-
Born in the Northwest" in the
Ladies' Home Journal. w. S. Harwood
tells of n queer experience that befell
the family in the first year after set
Ting ON a farm far removed from the
settlements. THE winter had been
unusually long and severe, and their
store of provisions ran low. 1t was
long distance to the nearest Easr of
supplies. and communication With the
outside world had been cut OF. In
dams in the neighborhood one night
broke into the granary where the
wheat was stored and stole a guam
tity. In doing this q large amount of
broken glass became mixed with the
wheat which the Indians left. so for
many days. amidst much merry story
telling and many 4 joke and laugh,
in spite of the serious situation. the
family gathered about q large table
in their living room and spent the
short winter days picking over the
wheat, kernel by kernel. in order to
free it frem the pieces Of glass. For
this wheat stood between them and
s:arvat ton. and none of its precious
kernels must bc lost. Their stock of
-four had long since wasted away. as
had most of their food supplies. so
they boiled and ate the whea. with
out grinding. Relief reached them
just in time TO prevent sad ending
to the experience"

He sanctioned the payments to of,

He stands arraigned for violation

ing such Republicans as Elihu Root,
former secretary of war; Judge Dixon

He sanctioned the arrest and i'm
prisOnment OF citizens of the state
without warrant of law.
He sanctioned the destruction of
property of unoffending citizens Of

He sanctioned the refusal of body
of lawless citizens to permit the dis
tribution of money and food to the
wives and children of men who had
been deported.
His defeat means the restoration of
peace, equal rights to all, justice for
rich and poor, no class distinctions,
no executive favors to one industry
as against another, and the restora-

Fire Destroys Ryan Home.

The farm residence of Mrs. G. RYAN,
located about two and q half miles
west of Svea, burned to the ground
Monday forenoon about 10 O'Clock.
Mrs. Ryan and her son Frank were
just preparing for a trip to Wilma
when the hired girl who was the only
person in the house at the time, came
outand shouted "Fire!' Frank immedi-
ately hurried to the house and assist
ed by his mother and the hired girl
he at once proceeded to do what he
could towards extipguishing the fire
which had started In the kitchen. But
they we're only three and as the water
had to be carried from the we'll in
pals, they were unable to fight the
element of destruction in an effective
manner. Seeing that it was futile to
try to save the kitchen they centered
their efforts upon preventing the fire
from entering the main building but
in spite of hard and persistent work
the fire steadily gained headway and
they were finally obliged to leave the
entire building to it's fate. Franks
face and hands we're terribly blistered
by the intense heat and he is at pres
ent in somewhat precarious con-
dition, although it is not thought that
any serious results will follow.
The origin of the fire is not known.
The loss is partly covered by insur.
ance.

its meeting at Nelson's. After the
usual devotional session Charlie J.
Johnson stepped forward and by a
few we'll chosen words tr transformed the
meeting into q surprise party, and
on behalf of those present, pre-
sented the newly married couple with
q fine rocking chair ard q valuable
settee, asking that they accept these
as tokens of their e,teem. The ladies
had not forgotten to supply them.
se'y yes with an abundance of good
things to eat and soon all the guests,
about 60 in number, were partakipg of
= daintily prepared lunch. Rev. Hall
voiced the sentiments of those present
in wishing the young couple long
and happy married life. Mr.. John
son did not have speech of accept
ance prepared, but did his best to ex
