Westminster Volunteers Win Inter
national Rife Match.

Bisley Camp, England. July 1.-THE West
minister Volunteers won the Sir Howard Vincent
Shield to-day, defeating the 7th Regiment team
by the narrow margin OF ten points, after the
closest rife competition ever seen at Bisley. The
Englshmen won by their superiority at the long
ranges Unfortunately for the Americans. Meyer
went to pieces at the 1000 yards. otherwise the
finish would have been closer.
The Americans had the heartiest sendon when
the shooting over. They were escorted to
the train preceded by band.
The closeness of the match yesterday, when
the Americans gained a lead of five points, in
creased the interest in to-day's shooting. An
even larger gallery was in attendance. includ-
ing number of 7th Regiment men who are
travelling abroad.
The shooting conditions were better, on the
whole than yesterday. The breeze was light
but the sun was much stronger, and the glare
in their faces interfered with the marksmen
The heat was oppressive.
The Americans started badly-Meyer missing
trouble with the targets, two of which had to be
shifted. The Westmnsters shot more evenly.
In consequence the Westminsters scored more
than the 18th at 800 yards, and completed
the third range of the match with ad-
vantage of three points, the totals of the three
ranges being: Westminsters. 1,145: Americans.
1,142. The totals at the s00-yard range were:
Westminsters. 5S9; Americans. 3S1 The indi-

same to be concurrent.
When the prisoner, accompanied by

the Jail for the court room, DOugherty
said to the jailer:
well, l guess I'll have to do it,"
In the court room there were 200
spectators. Attorney Irwin addressed
the court. He said that Dougherty

to him, and that he Qrwin) had been
given right of attorney to settle the
affairs of the prisoner. He added that
Dougherty's property would amount
to more than the school board defal-

LOOKS LIKE A
TELEPHONEWAR
INDEPENDENT COMPANY CUTS
RATES AND OLD COMPANY
WILL MEET IT.

It begins to look as though Lewis
town would soon be in the midst of a
telephone war that will be fought to
a finish, without quarter ON either side.
Recently the LewistOwn-Bfllings Mu-
tual Telephone company completed the
installation of it's first lot of local tel
ephones and opened it's exchange. A
rate Of $3.50 per month was announced
for these instruments, this being a
cut of 81 from the rate charged by
the Lewistown Telephone company.
This opening gun from the independ-
ent line was met by brOadside from
the Lewistown company, which has is
sued circular to it's subscribers stat
ing that if the new concern makes any
reduction in rates, the old company
will meet any rate put into effect.
down to nothing, or free service"
A Sweeping Declaration.
This is rather q sweeping declara-
ton of war. and subscribers are now
waiting for the next move in the game.
Whether or not the new company
will stand by its cut, or even make a
further one remains to be seen. But
this much is certain, that whatever
move it makes. the old company will
be there with the same rate Mean
while both concerns are going ahead
with construction work. The new
company is stringing its wires all ov-
er town and putting through its rural
lines. while the Lewistown company
is rapidly rebuilding its line to Great
Falls. and reconstructing its local sys-
tenn entire. and when these i'm
prOvements are completed. will have
al entirely new system throughout.
This work will cost the old company
a round 100000.

Japan to Have a Larger Navy.

Victoria, B. c., Nov. 27.-The Japan
ese admiralty has entered upon an
elaborate scheme of naval expansion,
which is expected to be approved at
the coming session of the diet. Ac-
cording to the news by the shawmut,
admiralty officials say Japan's best
ships are beginning to be out of date,
and larger ships, much heavier arma-
ments and higher speed will be built.
The Jill Shimpo says the battleship
of the future navy of Japan will dis
place 22.0O tons and have an arma-
ment of fourteen 12-inch guns, and
a speed of 20 knots, while the future
cruisers will displace 10000 tons,
and have a speed of Is knots, but no
official announcement has been made
in this regard.

that connection between Billings and
Milwaukee & st. Paul to build through
Lewistown on to the west. These
are the things that will go far toward
making this country and we SHOULD,
in my judgment encourage the build
ing of new lines. rather than to as
sumo an attitude of hostility toward
the railroads at this time.
w. ID. Symmes: Railway rates on
carload shipments are reasonable. but
on local shipments they are too high.
In my opinion. these things should
be adjusted by Legislation, but the
business mems associations may ac-
complish good results by taking the
matter up in a business like way, and
making the proper representation to
the railways. There is no call for
hostility at all. The Montana railroad
treats Lewistown shippers very well
indeed, and, as | said, the rates on
carload shipments are all right, al.
though the long haul on local ship
ments to Montana common points GER
tainly needs adjusting. So far as we
are concerned locally, the rate from
Lombard to Lewistown Is all right.
E. c. Swietzer: | believe it would
be a good thing to take up the mat
ter Of freight rates through such a
medium as is proposed. The rates to
Montana common points are sadly in
need of adjustment The rate over
the Montana railroad is. l believe, all
right. 1t Is not right, though, that
Montana merchants should be requir-
ed to pay higher tariff to common
points in this state than is charged
tc Portland and Seattle, yet that is
what we are paying.
