ANOTHER EXPERT EMPLOYED.

]. S. Grace, of Denver, an expert
candy maker of the very highest
qualifications and one who served an
apprenticeship under Ritchie. of Dur.
ango, one of the oldest and most sue
cessful candy makers in Colorado,
has been permanently employed by
Mr.. E. b. Lutes. of the Lutes Candy
Kitchen and Ice Cream parlors. Grand
functions and Western Colorado's
leading and most popular candy manu-
facturer.
Mr.. Grace arrived in the city two
weeks ago to assist Mr.. Lutes during
the fair season and Mr. Lutes has de-
cided to keep him Indefinitely. The
candy business of the Lutes estab-
lishment has deservedly grown to
such proportions and with a rapid and
permanent stride that the proprie-
tor has found it necessary to give
constant employment to another ex-
pert assistant and Mr.. Lutes believ-
es that in Mr.. Grace he has a man
that just suits him and will help add
fame and popularity to the Lutes'
brand of goods. To constantly i'm
prove his business and meet every
want of his great circle of patrons
has been the long established policy
of Mr.. Lutes and as a result he has
in Grand Junction today one of the
finest candy establishments in Colo
RADIO and those who know readily as
sert that no city in this section of
the west has a candy maker that
makes goods of higher and rarer
quality than Mr.. Lutes.

Teton County Residents Object

Word comes from Shelby aud other
parts of Teton county that many set.
tiers object to the plans of the reclaim.
alton service by which the waters of
St. Mary's river will be diverted for
the benefit of residents of Chouteau
and Valley counties. They hold that
the source of this water is in Teton
county, and some of it, at least,
should be devoted to the irrigation of
Teton county lands. An organization
to be known as the St. Mary's River
Improvement association was formed
at q meeting held at Shelby last week.
its purpose being to secure some de-
sired changes in the irrigation plans
of the federal authorities.
The members of the association
have raised funds to defray expenses
of the movement undertaken, and will
send delegates to ashington. to
consult with the secretary of the in
terror and officials of the recla am alton
service. All the people of Teton
county have been requested to co.
operate with the new association in
the movement. 1t is probable that,
as a result OF the new organization,
there will be hostility between it and
the Lower Milk River Water Users
association, but the members of the
noun nupopiootp ios;et %hn& Hlo;,
movement is not inimical to the in
terests of the mem bers of the Lower
Milk River organization, and tina,
they expect to be able so to show tt
the people of Chouteau and Vale,

Swiudler Worked Rauchers.

HELENA, Feb. 16.-A swindler who
imposes upon %ranchmen and govern.
ment homesteaders, and who is said
to have cleaned up O., 10 in Washing.
ton. Oregon and western Montana,
Is badly wanted by the authorities.
The sheriff and other peace officers
Of this state are warned to keep
watch for him.
His method OF operation is SIMPLE.
After convictions are secured of per.
sons living 10 a certain locality,
charged with the illegal cutting of
timber from the public domain, the
swindler appears on the scene. He
represents himself to be a special
agent Of the government, sent to in.
vestigate conditions, and see il any
other homesteaders have been vlolat-
ing the laws. After remaining a short
time. he approaches the homesteader
and tells him he thinks he Is guilty of
violating the laws. The homesteader
lie scared. After arousing the mans
fears, the swindler confides to him
that he thinks, by the payment Of a
certain sum. gauged according to the
rancher's prosperity, that the case will
not be pressed.
Whether the farmer is guilty or
otherwise, the effect of the other con-
victions makes an impression upon
him, and he accedes to the swindIer's
terms and pays over the money.
Usually it is some time before he dis.
covers he has been duped and even
then Is afraid to say anything for fear
the government will begin to suspect
that all his doings have not been
honest and upright.
Within a short time after the timber
cases came to trial at this term of the
federal court before Judge Hunt and
several Of the defendants had been
found guilty, the man made his APP
pearance in the Bull mountain
country, in Missoula county, aud
perpetrated the same trick on several
Of the ranchers. II is only within the
last week that his presence was dis.
covered there. The swindler learned
that the officers knew he was in Mis-.
soula county and fed. Now they are
looking for him.

Preparing Irrigation Code.

HELENA, Feb. l6.-The commission
created by the Ninth legislative as
sembly for the purpose of codifying
the irrigation and water right laws
spent the entire day today in a gener.
al discussion of the laws. The mem.
bers of the commission who were
named by Governor Toole met last
evening at the Grandon and perfected
an organization by the election of
former Supreme Court Justice II. N.
Blake, of Helena, as chairman, and
r. H. Ray, of Helena, as secretary.
Among those in attend ance at to-
days meeting were H. N. Blake, Sen.
ator A. w. Mahon of Valley county:

Baker: G. H. Campbell, of Great
Falls: f. c. Lewis, of Stevensville:
j. N. Tolmap, of Red Lodge, and
State Engineer A. f. Chandler, of Ne.
vada.
The commission is directed to have
its report ready by May, and one of
the commissioners, in an interview
with The Record today, said that he
regarded it as O than likely that
the outcome of the meeting would be
the formulation or drafting of an ir-
rigation code, which would be pre-
sented to the next legislative assembly
for adoption. In the meantime, it
will be published in the newspapers OF
the state and the people will be given
an opportunity to acquaint themselves
with its purposes.

1t Means Prosperity For Butte.

BUTTE, Feb. l5.--The announce.
ment Of the settlement Of the copper
u that for ten years has Deer car-
ried on in Montana between the
Amalgamated Copper company and
F. "A. Heinze is received with extreme
satisfaction in Butte by all classes of
people, with the exception of q few
political workers who have for years
subsisted on Heinze. They do not
like the news of a settlement and the
possible elimination of Mr.. Heinze
from political activity.
With the settlement of the trouble
it will be possible to add at least
5000, 600 pounds of copper to the
monthly output of the Butte district
immedi ately upon the resumption of
work in the mines that have been
closed for years, and several thousand
more men will be given employment.
F. A. Heinze disappointed many
men by drawing Out Of the expensive
fight, but he has protected all his
friends and all of them have had op.
portunities to make big money.
When the deal was certain to 20

a time when United Copper stock was
practically worthless, he wired all his
friends in Montana to buy United
Copper and Amalgamated and ask no
questions. Those who have been his
followers for years and have never
been tipped wrong by him obeyed and
bought. The result lie that they are
all rich. and are still friends of Heinze,
Those who we're otherwise involved
through connections with Heinze were
also given advance notice to protect
themselves.
