$4,000 per annum, to be paid jointly
by the three companies. Mr.. Cleve-
land has accepted with the understand
ing that the officers of the three COM

will be dismissed from service and will
not be re-employed by any of the COM

BALFouR's ELECTION ADDRESS.
Former British Premier Briefly Refers
to Fiscal Reform.

London, Jan. 3.-Arthur ]. Balfour,
the former premier, issued his cleo
ton address at night In it he says
that the country knows the members
Of the present government chiefly are
critics and their criticism has been
sometimes singularly INSCRIPTIONS and
preyerse, as in the case of Chinese la
Dor and other matters. After refer

the disestablishment of the church in
Wales, the address says:
One thing the Liberals regard as
mmutable, however the conditions of
Internal trade may have changed, is
the fiscal policy of the country. i

IN THE FIGHTING AT MOSCOW.
About Twenty-Five Hundred Persons
Killed or Wounded.

Moscow, Jan. SIT is impossible to
ascertain the total losses resulting
from the ten days revolt, as many of
the dead and wounded have not been
reported at the hospitals, public or pri-
vate, and some of the bodies were in
ctnerated. But personal tour Of
the hospitals shows there were 54S
killed and LOGS wounded. One hun
dred and seventy-four Of the injured
taken to hospitals have since died
The troops lost nine killed, of whom
two were officers, and f1fty-one
wounded. Among the killed or
wounded were a number of children,
the returns generally showing that in
nocent persons suffered the heaviest.
The final figures of the casualties will
closely approach $500.
The stories of the discovery of great
heaps of dead in the Prezna district
as we'll as many other sensational
stories printed by the local papers,
like the statement that over 400 revo-
lutlonists are still holding the Prok-
f1aroff mills, turn out after an investi-
CATION to be untrue. There has been
NO fighting at the Prokharoff mills
since Saturday.
An eye witness of the surrender of
the last batch on Sunday says that two
OF the ringleaders were shot without
even the semblance of a trial.

WILL CELEBRATE
ALI North Montana Cordially Invited to
Come to Havre on Wednesday, Janu-
airy 10th and Participate in a Big
Celebration to Commemorate
the Completion of the Water
Works System.

The great day has been set and on
Wednesday, January 10th, 1906, the
good people of all Northern Montana
are asked to come to Havre and help
us celebrate an event which marks
the beginning Of great epoch in the
towns history-the completion of one
Of the most complete and successful
water plants in the state of Montana.
For years Havre has struggled as no
other town in the county has, against
the ravages of the fire tiend, and time
and again has this element destroyed
valuable buildings, the total loss from
this source during the two years just
closing approximating 100000. With
out Dragging, it is safe to say that
there is not another town in the county
which could suffer such loss and rise
triumphant as Havre has done. 1t is
fit then that now, since the danger
from large losses by fire has come to
an end, that the event should be fit
tingly observed.
hold such celebration, and a move
ment was started, but there were some
disagreements and the date was post
poned. All disagreements have now
been settled, and the arrangements
are being pushed along by the differ
ent committees.
The call has been issued for a meet
ing of the United Milk River Irriga-
zion association to be held in Havre
on the 10th by President l.. Newman,
and the enGerprising farmers, ranch
men and business men of North
Montana are expected here on that
date, both to attend to the important
matters that are to come before the
Associations meeting as well as to be
HaVreS guests in the celebration.
The celebration will take the form of
a smoker" and no pains Or money
will be spared to entertain the guests
in the most approved fashion.
Among the possibilities Of the meet
ing Of the irrigators is the hope that
the troubles over the adjudication of
the water rights Of the Milk river can
be settled without the waste of the
time and money necessary to go
through the courts. There are several
plans feasible by which this could be
accomplished-the main difficulty be-
ing to get all parties together.
Mayor Newman, president of the
tion regarding the coming meeting

viii Probably Fall Little Short of Or;
Million Dollars.

Peoria, ILL.,, Jan. 3-The report Oh
The Everett Audit company on the de-
falcations of N. c. Dougherty was
made public at a meeting of the school
board at night. The total shortage
for seven years is $541, 40850, from
which will be deducted approximately
$4,000 for unauthorized but warrant
ed expenditures. Everett gave it as
his opinion that the total shortage for
eighteen years would fall slightly
short Of S1,000,000, stating that large
amounts of forged script had been
ffa1nd in 1887 and 1889, but no totals
or estimates on these years had yet
been made.
The report censures the officers of
the board, the treasurers and presi.

ing committees and the members Of
the board individually. Everett de-
clares that ii the board or any of its
officers had used even ordinary dill
gence in the performance of their duty
the mulcting of the fund would have
been impossible and that the mem
bers of the board are individually
liable for all shortage which cannot
be collected from Dougherty and the
Peoria National bank.
The report shows that $4,000 of
the shortage was directly manipulated
by the cashing of fictitious script
through the Peoria National bank, of
which N. c. Dougherty was president.

hope to see Chinook send a good rep
resentation to this meeting. I believe
it might be a means Of saving those
interested in irrigation in the vicinity
Of Chinook a great deal Of time and
money in needless litigation. / believe
that the sentiment of the meeting
will be, not to insist, or even suggest
that any of those interested in the
private irrigation enterprise subscribe
for government water, because there
is more than the required seventy five
per cent necessary to start construc-
tion ready to pledge the required sub
scription for water. It is up to a
point of adjudication of the rights
only, and this at as early date as
possible. At no time has it proven
satisfactory to fight proposition in
the courts where the same can be
amicably settled without the aid of
the law"
For the accommodation of visitors,
train No. will stop at all local points
between Havre and Glasgow. This
train will arrive at LIS p. m. and will
be met by reception committee.
The irrigation meeting will be call

cordial welcome to the visitors and
give them the freedom of the city.

While declining to give details OF
the losses, as his Investigations have
not yet been completed, the governor
general pointed out that these losses
were greatly exaggerated. This, be
said. also applied to the property
losses. The only large establishments
which had been burned were the Setin
printery, which was valued at $780,
900, the Schmidt furniture factory, and
part of the Manontoff factories. The
damage done by shells and shrapnel to
the factories and houses could be re-
paired at comparatively small cost
Most Of the houses burned were mex
pensive wooden structures, but the
heaviest loss, the governor general
said, was to the commercial interests,
which, on the eve of the holidays, were
damaged to the extent of several mil
lions.
Inc numDer OF persons arrested was
large, the governor general said, but
most of them would be released with

mality of a trial. The leaders would
be tried by the civil and not by the
military tribunals, but the most flag
rant offenders, the men who were
plainly guilty of treason, which In
other countries would be punishable
with death, would probably get off
with terms Of Imprisonment at hard
labor, such being the mildness OF the
Russian law. Attempts at acts Of re
yenge against the police and the
troops were naturally to be expected

LAIRD, SCHOBER

This is our line of Ladies fine boots and shoes and there are none better.
 All shoe people will undoubt- edly agree to this.
 They are made out of the best material, workmanship unsurpassed and elegant styles. Superlatives are not out of place when used in connection with this meritorious concern.
 There are probably very few ladies who wear what is known as high grade footwear that have not worn Lairds as called for short, and known as we'll in San Francisco, New Or leans. or New York, and none better liked than in Philadel- phia, where manufactured and carried by its leading mer- chants.
 We hope to increase our sales very materially of Ladies make, for we should sell as many pairs of fine ones to the Ladies as we do to the men, which does not happen to be the case at present.
 The new stock just in. See our Laird Window.
