Fair Called Off,

There will be no county fair in Ra
valli county this fall. The fair direct
ors net with the Hamilton Business
Mems Club Friday night. The rust
linG committee reported that the
county's appropriation of $1,000 was
available yet and that the business
men of Hamilton would contribute an
additional sum of between $500 and
$1,000. The fair directors seemed sat
ished with this and inclined to go
ahead, but it developed that the race
track at the fair grounds had been
dismantled. The directors then con-
cluded to call it off, feeling that with
out racing and other attra actions be-
sides the exhibits the attendance
would prove disappointing. 1t was
proposed that an exhibit be collected
and forwarded to the state fair from
Ravalli county and which will be done
by the Hamilton Business Mems Club.

GENERAL GALEN'S
OPINION
CANDIDATES FOR COMMISSIONER
MUST SPECIFY Terri OF
EITHER 2, 4 OR 6 YEARS
IN PETITIONS.

Helena, June Sin reply to an in
quiry from c. B. Calkins, county at
torney of Ravalli county, Attorney
General Galen has given an opinion in
relation to the election this year of
county commissioners. Mr.. Calkins
wanted to know whether the tenure of
office of county commissioners to be
elected at the next general election un-
der the late amendment to the consti-
tuition is determined by the number
OF votes received by each successful
candidate or whether the term should
be specifically designated in the "nomi-
nation papers"
In reply Mr.. Gaien says: There does
not appear to be any statutory law
upon this subject aside from the act
of Feb. %, 1901, laws of 1901, page 2OS,
submitting the amendment to the con-
stitution. This amendment distinctly
provides that the general election to
be held in Novem ber, 1906, one com
missioner shall be elected for term
OF two years, one commissioner shall
be elected for term of four years and
one commissioner shall be elected tor
term of six years.
Nothing is said in the act further
than this as to how the tenure of each
term shall be determined, but as the
constitution specifies each term sepa-
rately it is very apparent that, for the
purposes of election, separate offices
are created, which are designated by
the length of the term. and this should
be stated in the nomination paper
"1n the nomination paper, after the
phrase as a candidate for the office Of
you should add the words county COM
missioner for the two-year term,' or
for the four or six year term as the
case may be-

But one burglary was reported and that was of an out-Of-town house, and for which neither the local officials nor the circus management could be held responsible.
 The circus itself was good. Circuses are a good deal like women in one respect and that is that different shows appeal differently to differens people.

THE JURISDICTION
 IN RAPlER'S CASE
Federal and Territorial Authorities
 May Come in Conflict.

The case oi Rapier, the man who stole a lot of government reclamation checks. forged and passed about $500 worth of them, is likely to become com plicated and bring the territorial and federal authorities into collision. The first complaint against Rapier was lodged with Col. C. w. Johnstone in his capacity of United States court com missioner and he issued a warrant for the arrest of the fugitive on a charge of forgery.
 As was stated by The Republican yes terday morning Rapier has been ar rested at Bisbee and the reclamation service officers here have been informed by the territorial authorities that he is to be given a preliminary examination before a justice Of the peace there.
 It is a question whether a territorial official hasany Jurisdiction in the case since the forgery was committed against the federal government and this question will probably be fought out. On the other hand it is possible that Rapier may be held now on a charge of passing forged checks in which case it might be construed that an Offense had been committed against the territorial laws
 So far no action has been taken by the local government officials to de termine just what the criminal status
