Motorman l. H. Nell first noticed
the girl standing on the tracks in

Lupton took no notice Of the mob
and the meeting was uninterrupted.
A farmer named Smith arose and
offered his farm to Rev. Lupton if the
latter would give him the gift Of

DANDRUFF KILLS HAIR
Cuticura Soap Kills Dandruff

II was troubled with dandruff on
my head ever since I was twelve years
old. I had beautiful hair up to that
time. The dandruff destroyed my
hair. I tried everything I could hear
Of. I had no doctor, but I went into
q drug store where ! was well acQuain-
ted and asked the druggist if he knew
of anything that would be good for
me. He said: 'Of course I do. just
get a cake of Cuticura Soap. I got
It, and it did my hair good the first
time I used it. My sister in law
couldn't keep the dandruff off the top
Of her baby's head. and the hair
wouldn't grow. I was there, had q
cake of Cuticura Soap with me. I
told her about it. and gave her the
Cuticura Soap. and in about three
months I went there again. the child's

OPPOSE LEASING PLAN.
Western Stockmen Appear Before
Committee and Make Protest.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1l.-About
twenty-five delegates from the grazing
states OF the west appeared before the
senate committee in regard to the pro-
posed law for leasing the p ublic lands
Or an alternative system.
Messrs. Boardman, Walsh, Penwell
and NARROW represented Montana at
the hearing and also appeared before
a special committee appointed by the
president a year ago to look into land
matters. Messrs. Boardman and
Walsh took an active part in both
conferences and it was soon apparent
that all the men from Montana were
opposed to the Burkett bill, which pro.
poses to charge so much per head for
cattle on public lands.
The cattle men were represented by
members of the American National
Livestock association, who favored
the measure. while the sheepmen, rep
resented by members of the National
Woolgrowers' association, opposed
it.
During the proceedings, a letter
from President Roosevelt, addressed
to Senator Warren, was read. 1t in.
dorsed general control by the govern.
ment of grazing lands, but insisted
upon the protection of homesteaders
and arraigned the %sheepmen severely.
The cattlemen and %sheepmen criti-
cised each other and defended their
own motives. The cattlemen made no
defense of the charges that they had
been v%iolators of the law. and the
sheepmen asserted that it was neces.
sary for fencers of public lands to
make their peace with the govern.
ment, for ''they would be convicted if
ever brought to trial.
j.. NJ. B%Oardman, of Helena, Mont,
asserted that every cattleman had vio-
lated the laws in regard to fencing.

violators. just take the membership of
the catt!emen's association" he said.

He added that he had fallen into po-
litical disfavor and could no longer

American Dramatic
Art IS In a Poor Way

" Dr. LUDWIG FULDA. Eminent German Dranaist nd Poet
N rich America the dramatic art is the POOREST of all the
arts. Public bodies and private citizens vie with one another
in patronizing and promoting the other arts, BUT THEY
IGNORE THE THEATER. They think it is not good
enough to deserve subsidies. The drama is on the very lowest rung of
the ladder.
America has no, yet bred dramatist, and still her thcaters produce
almost entirely home plays-lght burcsque and comedy, melodrama,
spectacular pieces in which revolvers play the chief part. Problem
plays are taboocd. There is too much of the PRUDE in American
paygoers to permit this.
Now and again one hears Shakespeare, NEVER SYSTEMAT-
ICALY, and of the best of what Europe produces Americans know
next to nothing. Managers go on playing the same piece night after
night as long as it fills their Golfers. This is love of art! 1T SIT.
FILES ART.
Then the star system! In the playbil the name of the piece is
printed small; that of the STAR is in flaming letters. 1t is only tho
star the American theater gocrs wish to see.
Nowhere in the world have l seen such beautiful actresses. No
where have I seen such ARTLESS DRAMATIC STAGING and
such an artess public.
The men who write for the American stage are to be envied. They
need not bother about dramatic technique. IT WOULD BE LOST
ON THEIR PATRONS. Their dramatis personae can come and go
how and when they like. Motive is not necessary.
IN THE LAND OF WONDERFUL MECHANICAL INVENTIONS THE
STAGE MACHINERY IS THE MOST PRIMITIVE; EVEN THE MOST
ORDINARY APPARATUS IS MISSING.

8 The Railroads
%8&I%~ By j. j. HILL President Great Northern System
By j. j. HILL. President Great Northern System

lWv ODAY the entire country is suffering from want of trans
portation facilities to move its business without unreason-
able delay. The prevailing idea with the public is that the
railways are short of cars, while the fact is that THE
SHORTAGE is IN TRACKS AND TERMINALS
to provide a greater opportunity for the movement of the cars.
More cars2 Yes, we need more cars, but we need also cars of
greater capacity, heavier trains and MORE MILES OF RAIL
ROAD to haul them over. In ten years the railroads of the country
expanded 90 per cent for the handling of a business that increased
ITO PER CENT. Suppose you are able in the near future to increase
that expansion so per cent? That will still leave 40 per cent a year of
the business WITHOUT ANY FACILITIES for taking care of it.
1t is estimated that from $4,000 to 100000 miles of track must
be built AT ONCE to take care of this immense business. But to
build that amount will cost as much as the civil war cost at least. 1t
will cost from 81, 900, 10000 to $5,o00,O 5000. A thousand million
dollars a year for five years will scarcely suffice. Why, there is not
money enough or rails enough IN ALL THE WORLD to do this
thing.
And if the rails were piled up ready for the undertaking, and if
the money were in bank today, it would be impossible to GET THE
LABOR with which to do it.
LABOR IN THE MINES, IN THE FOREST, IN THE QUARRY, ~
BEHIND A STONE WALL WHICH IT CANNOT SCALE.
There is no question since the civil war of half the consequence
of this one. Why, you can't go out and contract with any railroad in
this country to move 500 cars Of freight from St. Paul to New York
in thirty days. And the railroad could not deliver il ii it should con-
tract to do it.
There is not money enough available to bring relief to this situa-
ton UNDER THE CONDITIONS EXISTING. Are men going
to invest their money in railroads as long as railroads re considered
OUTLAWS? The fact is the railroad has not been getting justice in
this country. Why, in the recent campaign we beheld the spectacle of
two great political parties preaching the doctrine Of the operation of
the railroads by the government. The federal government is to run the
main lines-they are the only ones that make any money nowadays
and the private investors can have the branch lines, THERE BEING
NO PROFIT IN THEN. Is that the way to get men to put more
money into the country's railroads? Is this the way to get more rail
road mileage SO that the countrys freight can be moved?
1t is time to CALI. A HALT in this treatment of the railroads.
Why, I challenge any one to point out a road that has not failed at
some point in its career.
HAVE GONE INTO THE HANDS OF RECEIVERS. IT'S BEEN A FAD,
AND A COSTLY FAD, TO BUILD RAILROADS.

human race is full Of human
nature. That Is why we are al
most grateful for this fuss be-
tween President Roosevelt and
the Bellamy Storers. 1t is so human.
No matter how high a man may rise
in official rank, whether he be a presi-
dent OF an ambassador, he still remains
a mere man, controlled by the good
old common qualities inherent in the
human animal. The same IL true Of
woman, even truer.
1t Is perhaps unfortunate that this
somewhat undiplomatic controversy
must be spread upon the records Of
our national life, and yet, save for the
persons directly concerned, there is
nothing really serious about It. An
International affair it Is in a sense, but
It is not loaded. No international COM
plications can result. The ultimate
outcome WILL be simply silence after a
little while. When the tumult and
the spouting dies (the grammar is Mr..
Kipling's) this ancient earth will con-
tinue to revolve upon its own axis.
Its rate Of revolution will be precisely
that observed by scientists from Gall
lei up to date, the ms will rise and

will reign, and the republic at Wash

live!

An International Triumph.
All the friends Of the Bellamy Sto"

most happily mated. Both are we'll
educated, highly cultivated and ambi'
tious. Mrs. Storer at first was ambi-
tious along artistic lines and later for
the political preferment Of her hus-
band. At the Philadelphia centennial
she first became intensely interested
In pottery work. Suggestions received
to experiments with the pottery clays
Of Indiana and Ohio. with the result
that she evolved a new and distinc-
lively American branch Of that art.
Her lockwood creations went abroad.
where In turn they were ascrlbed to
China, Germany, France and Spain.
The Europeans scarcely could believe
that America was capable OF produc-
Ing such beautiful and original work.
It was an international triumph for the

as United States minister successfully

turned her attention to the production

results that her fame was largely In

her best energies to the advancement
Of her husband. While Mr.. Storer un
