Thinks It Great Countrv,

H. G. Gibbs, of Princeton, Illinois,
spent last Thursday in this city and
put in busy day looking over Lew
lstown and the surrounding country
Mr.. Gibbs is wealthy business man
OF the Illinois town and was on his
way to the coast He came up into
the Judith Basin upon the request Of
a number of his friends who are try
ing to get a line on this part of the
country with view to investing.
accompanied by Dave Hilger, Harry
Yaeger and John Beebe, he took an
automobile trip over Oh Cottonwood
and Beaver creek benches and was
shown the grain fields and the i'm
mense granaries of wheat and oats,
he expressed the utmost astonish-
ment at the grain yields as shown
by the data being collected by John
Ritch and before leaving, requested
that everything pertaining to rhe
country be sent to him. He is sure
that there will be great immigra-
ton to Fergus county next year

DECISION IN ONE
PRINTING CONTRACT
RETIRING BOARD COULD LET
CONTRACT SAYS HIGHER
COURT.

Last Monday the Supreme Court
OF the state handed down decision
in the case of the Red Lodge Picket
VS.. the County Commissioners OF
Carbon county The case involved
the validity of a printing contract en-
tered into by the old board just be-
fore retiring from office. The new
board refused to recognize this con
tract in view of the opinion of the
attorney general on the subject and it
was taken into court
After stating the case and citing
the authorities, the Court says:
THE power to make the contract
is specifically granted but the time
when such power shall be exercised
is not limited or prescribed There
fore, we say that the proposition is
incontrovertible that may be excr-
cised at any time during the term of
the board when prior contract FOR
such work has expired or is about to
expire, and. SO far as the power of
the board is concerned. it is just as
ample and complete the last week of
the boards official existence as at
anv time prior thereto The making
OF such contract at time near the
close of the official career Of an out
going board NAV. in some instances.

thoroughly awake to this fact.
In October, $l9,469 were taken in
by the county treasurer. This ex-
ceeded the sum taken in during the
same month last year. Receipts fell
OFT for the first twenty days of this
month but they started again yester-
da yand the total number of receipts
issued up to 8 o'clock this afternoon
exceeded by ten, the number issued
up to the same time last year. The
total amount collected up to date is
S7,256. There remain four days, or
until 8 o'clock Saturday evening, be-
fore the penalty goes on and in that
time over one hundred thousand dol
lars must be given up to the county
treasurer. During those four days,
Treasurer Chandler and his deputy,
James Croft, expect to be about the
busiest men in Fergus county.

Reports Which Are Being Sent In By Farmers
Of Fergus County Show That The Aver.
age Yield viii Be Thirty Bushels.

Up to noon today, John B. Ritch
has received seventy-ive reports
from the grain growers of Fergus
county giving the yield of grain, hay
and ptatoes on close to ten thousand
acres OF land. The average yield Of
wheat is going to be greatly in ex-
cess Of 80 bushels per acre and the
yield of oats and potatoes is Just as
phenomenal.
Threshing is still in progress in
some sections and it will require
two or three weeks yet to get all O:
the enormous grain crop in the gran
aries.
The only unsatisfactory thing
about present conditions is the de-
moraiized state IF the gram market.
This, however, does not reflect up
on Fergus county. These returns
are demonstrating that the Inland
Empire can produce the grain, a
greater quantity of it per acre, in
fact, than any other section Of the
United States.
Reports from different parts Of the
county indicate that a good snow
or rain would be good thing in or
der that the wheat sown this fall
might get a good start before win

the reports received since Our last

Chester Smith Puts Bullet Through Head Of
Walter fdirbdirn Near Pine GrOye.-(Jn.
faithful Wife Cause OF Tragedy.

well known and highly respected
stockman and rancher living south
OF the Snowy mountains. Soon after
marrying the girl, Smith found out
that she had reputation for i'm.
morality which, to say the least, was
decidedly off color. In fact, the girl
herself confessed to her husband that
she had transgressed every law Of
womanly virtue and gave an astound-
ing list Of men who had been her
partners in sin.
Some Of these men, Smith con.
tronted, but they denied the truth
OF the woman's story. Several months
ago, Smith called at the office OF
County Attorney Ayers, told the
story of his domestic difficulties and
asked for advice. He wanted GER
tain parties prosecuted but the coun-
ty attorney told him that unless he
could get something more than the
unsupported word of the wife, it
would not be advisable to swear out
any complaints.
Smith came to the same official
about the first of the present month
and again wanted something done
but admitted that he had no other
evidence than the statements BY his
wife. He said that some of the me
whom he had accused had threatens
ed to kill him and he desired per
mission to carry a gun The county
attorney cited him to the law con-
corning the carrying of concealed
weapons and Smith went back home.
Several days prior to the killing,
Smiths wife told him of having re-

With this in view, he went down
to the cabin occupied by Walter
Fairbairn and his brother, last Tues
day and left a note for Walter The
note simply requested Fairburn to
come to Pine Grove about noon
Thursday as the writer desired to
see him on important business. He
signed the note "a Messenger
Complying with the request ex-
pressed in the note, Fairbairn went

Big Tunnel Is Completed.

The two openings of the Billings
4 Northern railroad company's tun-
ne! near Lav;na, whicl, has been
named Painted Robe, met Thursday
with an error of less than quarter
OF an inch, says the Billings Gazette.
The tunnel is a quarter of mile
long and is built on a curve. Engi-
nering men say that the feat is IN
exceptionally clever one on this ac-
count. 1t is said that work on the
road will continue after the first of
the year. At present the contractors
are employing full force of men
and indications are that they will
continue to do SO until the work is
completed. Work on the new ex-
tensin is being pushed rapidly, the
company taking advantage Of the
good weather which prevails to get
as much work done as possible.

"The first shot l fired to scare him
back but when he kept coming, l
shot to kill" said Chester c. Smith,
a young rancher who lives near
i Pine Grove, while detailing to the Of
fcers the incidents leading UP to the
killing Of Walter Fairbairn near
Pine Grove last Thursday afternoon.
An examination of the body of Fair
BARN, held Saturday afternoon by
DR.. Attix, cunty coroner, showed that
Smith must have intended to do
more than scare his adversary at the
first shot, as in addition to the fatal
wound in the head, there was also a
bullet in the shoulder
The incidents leading up to the
killing of Fairbairn and the tragedy
itself are sensational in the extreme
and while the coroner's jury exoner-
ated Smith, there is no absolute GER,
tainty that the last has been heard
of the case.
The loose tongue and the loose
morals of a woman who, from her
own story, has reached the very
depths Of utter depravity, was the
cause of this latest chapter of blood
in the history of Fergus county.
AS brought out at the coroner's
inquest, held last Friday afternoon
and evening at Pine Grove, Chet
Smith, several months ago, married
the daughter of D. K. Anderson, a

HIS aim WAS VERY POOR

Thanks to the very exceedingly poor
aim of Bob Findley, Otto Kempen-
dorff last Saturday escaped getting
his anatomy punctured with a 32-
calibre bullet. Some of the bystand-
ers say that Findley really had no
intention of shooting Kempendorff
but simply fired down against the
pavement simply to scare the Lew
istown man. Otto, however, cannot
corroborate this statement as he had
his back to Findley about that time.
In fact, he was doing Barney Wef-
ers stunt back through the Big Bear
saloon in an effort to get in the rear
of some article of furniture which
might be bullet proof.
