ing squad behind one OF the big guns
on the United States fighting ship Gin
cinnati. Recently he has been in port
in Chifoo, China, and in Yokohama,
Japan. In letter home he says the
Japs are somewhat unfriendly to the
Americans, believing that they we're
robbed OF the fruit of their victory over
the Russians. Mr.. Morrison is not
much disturbed about the yellow
peril" He says the Japs and Chinese
are good imitators, but have not the
ability TO cope with the Americans in
large dealings. The Cincinnati is now
sailing to Shanghai, and during the
voyage Frank will be examined for
promotion. His superior officer has er-
pressed the wish that he be promoted.

was sleeping quietly. Almost at the
stroke of IL, the secretary was seiz.
ed with a turn. He called feebly and
a nurse responded. The sick man was
breathing with great difficulty. DR.
Scudder was speedily summoned and
it required but glance for him to
determine that the end was but a few
minutes away.
The household was aroused. The
wife reached her husband as he was
breathing his last. The son, Clarence
Hay, and the daughter, Mrs. Jas. A.
Wadsworth, of Genesee, n. Y, hurried
into the sick room, but they were too
late.
The patient did not suffer greatly
in his last moments. Aside from
great difficulty in breathing there was
no struggle. Stimulants were ineffect-
i've. The secretary lapsed into uncon.
sciousness and seemed to fall asleep
at the last.
The brief announcement was made
In the forenoon that the body probab-
ly would be taken to Cleveland on
Sunday. and the request was issued
that the family be permitted to re-
main in uninterrupted quiet until late

First Reported,

Apparently Quite as Important as at
First Reported.
Mr.. F. s. Weidenborner, pres
ident of the Queen Mining & Milling
company, which some time ago ac-
quired the Bullard property, adjoin-
ing the famous Barnes-King at
Kendall, was in town last week, on
his way east on business connected
with the company. Mr.. Weidenborn-
er gave the Argus the first official
statement regarding the recent strike
made in this promising property, con-
firming the various reports as to it's
extent. The ore located by the dia-
mond drills runs about $17 to the ton,
and the blanket vein is upwards of 100
feet in thickness. The company de-
nies that it has considered any propo-
sition whatever for the sale of its
property.
The next move to be made will be
the opening Of the ground by means
of a shaft. and this work will be
undertaken early in August, and push.
ed vigorously. OF course, following
this, a mill will be necessary, and
while Mr.. Wiedenborner is not giving
out any details regarding that so far
ahead, it will be of very large ca
pacity. Experienced mining men at
Kendall consider that the showing SO
far made justifies the belief that the
Queen will be one of the largest mines
in the whole district.

AT COAL MINES
MANAGER LOCHRAY PUTTING
SPRING CREEK PROPERTY IN
FIRST.CLASS SHAPE.

Charles Lochray, Samuel w. Gebo's
the Spring Creek coal mines, which
MIR. Gebo recently purchased, has ar
rived here and is directing the i'm
provements now being made at the
property. These will consist of tip
pie, with chutes for loading cars, Of.
fee buildings and all the cOnveniences
that go to make up a first-class sur
face plant. Work on these structures
is about to begin, and underground
Mr.. Lochray finds much to be done
before the workings will be in first
class shape. This work is proceeding,
however, without interfering with the
output of coal in about the usual
quantities.
By next fall, the management hopes
to have the railroad track completed
from the city to the mine, and the 9th.
er improvements will be finished by
that time. It will then be possible to
vastly increase the output Of coal
but the amount to be mined will de-
pend entirely upon the market that
is found outside for il. The expec
tation is that this will be very large
and Mr.. Gebo is expenuing a large
sum of money in placing the property
in first-class shape.
No More Men Needed.
Since he took the management OF
the mines, Mr.. Lochray, who was long
located at Sand Coulee, has been be
sieged with applications for work. AS
will be seen from the statement oi
what is being done, there is no need
for additional miners at the property
just now, nor will there be for some
months yet. The misapprehension as
to when the increase in the output
is to begin has already brought some
men here who were disappointed il
not finding work. Coal miners in 9th
er parts of the state who have al
eye on Lewistown will understand
from this that Mr.. Lochray is in nj
position to give them places at thi:
time

wnlcn leads ultimately to government
ownership. Of all the blights tha
can come on the commerce and indus
try of a nation, that is the worst.
There are several evident reasons
why step of this sort once taken
1t is impossible to go back again tt
former conditions.
In the first place, no government
Will admit that it has made a mis-
take if it can help it. You could moi
expect a member of congress to &c
to his constituents and say: I voteG
for putting you into the hands of q
lot of politicians because l honestly
thought you would be we'll of there
but found that If had known about
what was doing, never would have
acted as l did,
In Germany, where government
control has become government own
ership to great extent, the people
in general are in ignorance of the
losses they have suffered and are suf
fering. The manufacturer and pro
ducer may know it and feel it, but
they alone cannot bring any pressure
to bear that amounts to much. Be
sides, government regulation of freight
rates means necessarily the establish
ment of scale of rates oased on dis
tances, which is absolutely a fallac
1cus basis. When the man who suf
fers complains and trys to get his
wrongs righted, the man who has the
advantage protests just as loudly
against yielding it. The government
which gave the one man his advan.
tage does not dare to take it back
neither does it dare to afford the 9th.
er man relief to which he is entitled
for then it would be interfering with
his competitors monopoly. So it sim.
ply sits back and does nothing. There
is no relief for the man whose bust.
ness has been destroyed, no matter
I ow much he may have Deen wronged
We have beautiful example of the
way this works in Prussia. In the
face of a threatened famine, the gov.
ernment reduced rates Un grain from
eastern Prussia so that it was posi-
bic for the grain growers to ship their
grain to the mil1ers of western Prus.
sia and dispose of it at profit. The
people of western Prussia had a lit
tie grain of their own with which this
eastern grain came into competition
After considerable agitation they went
to the government and said point
bank that if freight rates were moi
changed so as to shut out grains from
the east, they would instruct their
representatives in the Reichstag to dc
their utmost to defeat measure be-
fore that body in which the govern
ment was interested. What was the
result? Why, they simply got what
they asked for. And then, to satisfy
the east, the government had to es
1ablish bounty system to enable the
grain growers of eastern Prussia tt
export their grain to England, although
there was a market for it in theil
own country.
GAS I say, once put yourself in thu
hands of the government commission
and you can never get out"

0UAY'S BODY
NOT LOCATED
ANOTHER ORGANIZED SEARCH TO
BE MADE FOR 1T BEGINNING
SATURDAY..

Jesse Clark and Tom Nielsen, of
Rogers, came to town yesterday, and
announced that all arrangements had
been made for second search for
the body Of John Quay to begin Sat.
urday morning at 8 o'clock from the
Quay ranch, where all persons inter.
ested are asked to assemble. The
sheriff's office will be represented, and
it is proposed to keep up the hunt un.
til the body is found, as the people
are thoroughly convinced that it has
been hidden in the vicinity.
Rogers, July 3.-The search for the
body of John C"Sandy') Quay, the
young rancher who disappeared so
mysteriously last fall, Is over, and it
proved fruitless. Considering the con-
ditions, a most thorough and system
attic search was made. although, owing
to the postponement on account of
the storms, not SO many participated
in it as would otherwise have report
ed.
Quay Was Murdered.
The men who met at the Quay ranch
have come to the conclusion that no
matter how thorough the search, it is
doubtful if the remains could be locat-
ed. They are entirely of one mind
now as to the cause Of the rancher's
disappearance-that he was murder
ed.
A careful examination of the prem
Too fnr
most deplorable appearance, being
shorn of every article of value that
could be carried off. Harness, grain
and many other things that were on
the place when Quay disappeared have
vanished. Wanton pillage is every
where evident.
What the Residents Think.
People in this locality believe that if
a good detective could be put on the
| case to bring all the odds and ends
of information into one report, it
would prove reasonably easy to un-
| ravel this mystery. Suspicion strong
ly points to one man who left the
country shortly after the facts concern
ing Quay's disappearance, together
| with report on the investigation
made by the officers, appeared in the
Argus. No one knows just where this
man went, but it is believed he could
be located without much difficulty. 1t
is now evident that number Of
ranchers, acting independently, can
not hope to accomplish anything like
as much as could be done by one Off
Ger who would cover all the sources
of information. and place in their or
der the various bits of evidence
that can be obtained. The fundamen-
tai purpose of government being the
protection of people in their persons
and property, it is thought that the
authorities could we'll afford to put
an officer on this case and keep him
on it until all the sources of infor.
nation were exhausted. II this could
be done, it is the fixed belief that
there would not be much mystery left
in the Quay case at the end of q
couple of weeks or less.
