project III 1904, or any one that mani
tested the slightest interest in the
Marias River project? If there is, I
failed to ever see or hear of it,
But how about the ST. Mary's Milk
river project? This is one Of the very
first projects taken up by our nat
ional government. The reclamation
engineers representing the various
departments have been at work on it
for years, many settlers have settled
in the valley on the ground of the ex-
pected government water, and in this
project it is the intention of the gov
ernment to give the settlers already
located. water; also those that To-
Gated on the strength Of the prom
ised water, and still further to settle
every acre of ground in the valley
susceptible to agricultural develop
ment.
cit was at this time that the num-
erous obstacles We're encountered, leg
al and otherwise, and which threat
ened the abandonment of the project

directly and indirectly interested show

various existing obstacles and show

1T WAS for just such purpose that

River Irrigation project are ready to
admit that were it not for the ener

HAVE STARTED
FAST FRElGH1S

Tuesday evening the Great North
ern put on two symbol freight trains
running out of st. Paul and Delta
through to the coast and handling
important freight, the transit of which
will not brook Of delay. The new
class flyers are numbers 401 and 4o2
and instructions have been issued to
have engines in readiness at all ter
minals to furnish power for them in
order that there may be no delay.
The Great Northern evidently pro-
poses to make record run in the
matter of freight transportation with
these trains and it is expected now
that the congestion Of freights which
has been so disastrous to business all
winter. will soon be relieved although
conditions are still far from satisfac-
tory in the east for railroading.

KIND WORDS
FROM "POp"

1t will be remembered that George
W. Venlum, secretary of the United
Milk River Irrigation association, was
here from Harlem to attend the BAN
quet rendered G. c. Babb, engineer
in charge Of the Milk River project
by the business men Of the city. Mi.
Eenuum is Familiarity known as Pop"
md he tellswhat he thinks Of the
EIavre folks in the following glowing
language, which appeared in an ar
ticle printed in the News of Harlem:
Pop says that there is in HayTe a
bunch OF business men that haye no
rqual in the state when it comes 10
entertaining friends They simply
cant be beat, says Pop. lis no Won
der to me that HaYre has risen from
a cow camp to one OF the most i'm
pOrtant cities in Montana. They eli
work shoulder to shoulder for the ad-
yancement of their city and that is
the main secret of their success"

The question Of the relative value
of the Milk River project and the
Marias projects to the city Of Havre
have been up for considerable discus
sion of late and the course of Hayre's
business men has met with some ad-
verse criticism. VIM T. Cowan, the
Box Elder merchant and the Chester
Signal both taking the position that
we are wrong. A representative of
the Herald called upon Mayor New
man and asked him for an expression
upon the subject from his view point,
both as Mayor of this city and as
president of the United Milk River Ir-
rigation association, and we give here
with his interesting and comprehens-
i've reply:
II reaC the article written by Mr..
VIM. T Cowan on the Marias River
project, also the lengthy editorial in
the Chester Signal, both bearing on
the same subject.
Il have no objection whatever to
being quoted on the, matter of the st.
Mary's versus the Marias River pro-
ject, in fact l feel that as president
of the Milk River United Irrigation
association, that it is my duty to re-
ply to the articles in question.
"To begin with I must confess that
/ am greatly pleased at the interest
that is apparently beginning to mani
fest itself among our neighbors to the
south and west Of us, on the subject
of Government Reclamation, but
must also confess some amusement
at the criticism of the Havre business
men for not discarding all interest in
the st. Mary River project and take
up the Marias River project instead.
81 am inclined to believe in the
truth and feasibility of the Marias
River project as presented by Mr.
| Cowan, in data taken from the 4th
annual report of the reclamation serv,
ice, but who is, there in the Milk Riv-
er valley, Box Elder or Chester who
knew anything of the Marias River

FOR EARLY
BREAK Up

F. A. Prosser of Chinook spent a
few hours here Monday afternoon, he
was enroute to Helena, where he went
to look after a ranch located on the
shores Of Lake Houser which he has
owned for over rs years and which
Issfsss astotore he had not considered as
of special value, though now its va
lue has materially increased.
Mr. Prosser is one Of the old timers
of Montana, and has been ranching in
the Milk River valley for seventeen
years, his ranch being located half
mile east of town of Chinook. While
in conversation with the Herald man
Monday Mr.. Prosser remarked the 81
miliarity between the winter just pas
sing and that of 1881, the first one
he ever spent in the state.
Unreseryedly he predicts an carly
spring this year, basing his calcu-
lations on many instances. One in
particular is the unrest felt by cat
tie and having worked with cattle for
many years he is familiar with their
actions. This year, as on several
occasions when the spring arrived
early, The cattle are nervous and are
continually trying to get out of the
enclosure and into the hills.
Talking of the hard winter Of 81,
Mr.. Prosser said: I'VE turned our
cattle out ON the Goth day of Feb
ruary that year, the break in the con-
tinued cold came on the 10th, and in
three days the large banks Of snow
were turned into running water, so
sJrong was the chinook" Why" he
continued, we planted Our grain in
March that year, and | expect to be
doing the same this year, though
when l left Chinook, the streets still
were filled with great large snow
banks, the chinook winds have not yet
reached us

the business interests of Havre to
learn that order of the Pacific board
OF fire underwriters have rescindad
their order issued some months ago,
by which rates on fire insurance in
Montana was advanced % per cent.
The advance was made a few months
after the earthquake at San Fran
cisco was caused by the large los
ses sustained by the great fire in
surance companies at that time. The
advance was met with much protest
by merchants and business men Of the
state, and al the Boosters conve1-
ton, held recently at Helena, resolu-
tlons were adopted requesting the le-
gislature TO take steps toward the en-
actment of laws to prevent such ar
bitrary action on the part of the in
surance companies.
The matter was then taken up with
the Pacific board by boards of under
state. and by Auditor Cunningham
with the result that the increase in
rats has been withdrawn Local a.
gents Of the big companies will doub. a.
less be notified Of the decrease in the
rates within the next few days. It is
stated that the reduction will date
from January /.
The lotice to the state auditor Was
contained in the following telegram:

one who had always taken the
greatest interest in its affairs
and who is soon to take up
