The week just closing has been one
of rumors, some excitement and gen
eral unrest for the public in general
of the city of Havre, while for the EN-
ployes OF the city government
ing mayor, aldermen city engineer,
and in fact about everybody except
ing the city clerk, city attorney and
city treasurer-have been. working,
watching, planning and advising. The
cause Of this unusual stir has been
the breaking of the clasp OF the stern,
cold winter that has held this section
in so tight grasp for the last sixty
Or seventy days.
The chinook wind, for which We
have so long hoped, began to blow
about the middle of last week--in fact
it was working earlier in the week in
the Bea.' Paws south Of toWn,-and on
Saturday morning the flood of water
began to appear in Bull Hook creek,
which is fed from the hills south CT
town for a distance of about fife
miles.
There would have be no trouble
at the pumping station but for the
fact that this stream was banked full
of snow which has been blowing into
it during the winter and that in va
rious places just above town this
snow packed ana gorged the channel
one place about a quarter of mile
in length was a solid mass of ice
and in consequence the water was
forced out of the bed of the creek
and a large lake was formed just
south OF the pumping station.

The passage by the state senate or
joint memorial, introduced by Sen
ator Thomas Everett at. this county,
and the encouraging outlook for the
passage of the memorial by the house
will arouse more than ordinary inter-
est in all portions of Northern Mont
ana.
The joint memorial is addressed to
the United States congress and has TO
its object a partial Strengthening out
of many deplorable land and water
right conditions which exist in this
portion of the state.
The memorial points out, what has
been known in this part. of Montana
for a lo1.s. time past, that present con-
ditions are resulting in the movement
of large numbers of settlers from
Northern Montana across the interna-
tional boundary line into Canada,
where much more inviting conditions
are offered them.
The meat of the memorial, however,
consists of the statement, which, in
less legal verbiage, emphasizes long
standing contention that the govern
ment is standing on wrong premises
when it seeks to ignore the interests

miles south Of Hinsdale, was in town
the other day, says the Hinsdale
Homestead, and reported his losses
so far were but % head; that he was
feeding lightly, but had sufficient feed
to run him through March. Mr. smil
ey's loss so far is hardly equal 10
summer loss, and if the winter breaks
reasonably early, he will go through
without any loss to speak of.
Reports received at this office from
the northern part Of the county, es-

are to the effect that the sheep and
cattle losses OH account OF the seV

as had been reported and was anti.
cipated One good sized sheep out

head lost up TO the first of the week.
We are informed that most CT the
ranchmcu have hay to run them well
into March, and that they do not now
anticipate heavy loss on any stock
they can get to feed. 1t is also said
that the range IS not n as bad shape
as was reported, and with reason

in range cattle will. not be exceeding
