he toldlme, go into the woodshed and
practice making a noise with a mallet.

been reached in the cattle business
said \. +. de Ricqles at Denver, COL,
land that from now on We will see an
improvement in the cattle situation.
All the best-posted etockmen with
whom.I,h have talked Of late seem TO
think.that there are better things in
store for.the cowman in the near flu
ture. There are fewer cattle in the
feed lots than usual at this time OF the
yearland there Is also a scarcity on
the range. Cattle were gathered OFT
the Northwestern ranges closer last
fall.than for many years and there
will,not be so many of them to move
this year. All of these things are
going to work to the adv antage Of the
cattlemen and l look for q decided
improvement In the business within

SURPRISING THE puGS.

The aggrega atoms of so.called prize
fighters which have made their head.
quarters in various Montana towns

gage in some legitimate occupation to
make a living. They are criminals in
the eyes of the law, but strange to say
their presence and pugilistic exhibi.
tons have been tolerated and encour.
aged in communities of Montana
citizens who were supposed to be law.
abiding and entitled to the respect of
their fellow men.
The city OF Butte has heretofore
been the favorite rendezvous of these
alleged fighting men. From time to
time there have been we'll advertised
performances in which the ''cham.
pions" of certain classes of pugilists
have taken part, and citizens Of the
great copper camp have contributed
literally to the support Of these law
breakers. Whether the fight was q
fake or the real thing, it was a crime
against the laws Of Montana, but the
public officials assumed that the people
wanted that kind OF entertainment and
made no effort to suppress It.
But the mayor OF Butte recently
