BUT PRESIDENT DECIDES GOVERN.
MENT WILL NOT ACT NOW.
CONDUCT INVESTIGATION FIRST
Deer Lodge Valley Farmers Protest
Shutdown of Washoe Smelter.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 5.-After
an hours conference at the White
House today, at which the nnal hear
ing was had in the matter of demands
by Deer Lodge valley farmers that
the government bring injunction pro-
ccediugs against Montana smelters
on account of alleged damage to the
forests, President Roosevelt decided
that the government would take no
action in the matter at this time. The
solicitor general, however, was in
structed to make immediate investiga-
tions, in conjunction with the smelter
managements, to ascertain whether
or not there is some feasible means of
desulphurizng the poisonous copper
fumes, thus preventing further dam
age TO vegetation in the vicinity of
the smelters.
At noon the executives ofnce was
filled with Montana people, including
the protesting Deer Lodge valley far
mers, with Robert Clinton, Butte
attorney, acting as spokesman. John
Ryan and Mr.. Shores represented the
smelter interests and Montana's entire
congressional delegation were present.
Senator Lodge appeared in behalf
of numerous Massachusetts owners of
Montana clipper stocks, who would be
seriously injured by closing of the
smelters. Solicitor General Hoyt, Gif-
ford Pinchot and attaches of the for
estry divisions, were present to give
legal and scientific advice.
Montana's congressional delegation
has been deluged with messages from
business mems associations in Mis-
soula, Butte, Heleua, Anaconda, and
other cities, protesting against hasty
action that would grievously affect
business interest of their state,
Mr.. Ryan informed the president
that the matter was already in the
| federal court and was now under ad-
visement by Judge Hunt. The var
ious parties interested, lett tonlght

TWO CRIMINAL CASES HAVE AL
READY BEEN DISPOSED OF.
C. |vANH0FF IS ACQUITTED
Salacious Case Occupies Full Days
Time-Jury in Harrington Case
Disagree.

Judge Myers convened district court
Monday morning and proceeded to the
trial of criminal cases.
The first case called was that of the
state versus Mike Harrington, charged
with robbery. A jury was Quickly
secured and the taking of testimony
consumed only a few minutes. The
state established the fact that Harrig
ton relieved Dennis O'Neal of three
dollars in the Paragon saloon last
summer while the latter was in an in
toxicated condition. He secured the
money by cutting O'Neal's trousers
pocket while he was asleep IN a chair.
Harrington claimed it was all a JOKE.
The jury took the case early in the
afternoon, but late Monday night re-
ported disagreement and was dis
charged. Attorney H. c. Packer
conducted the defense.

| for criminal assault on Mrs. Johanna
Johnson, who lives two miles south of
Darby. The states evidence tended
to establish the offense, bat was not
clear. Mrs. Johnson testified that
Ivanhoff, an Italian laborer, had come
to her home three times while her hus-
band was away, and had harmed her
She admitted, however, that she made
no complaint until in the course of a
quarrel with her husband, when she
told him that he had better stay az
home, as "the Dagoes were hanging
around" Mrs. Johnson is Sweds
and gave her evidence through ar
interpreter. Her husband, James
Johnson, also took the stand. "My
wife is poor housekeeper," he said
''she doesn't keep things clean" He
told of his efforts to have Ivonhoff ar
| rested after his wife admitted she
had been assaulted. When the case
went to the jury Judge Myers advised
that it find the defendant not guilty
! and verdict of acquittal was imme
diately returned. Attorney HI. B
Cole, assisted by Attorneys Duncan 8
Marshall of Missoula, conducted tn,

and seizng an iron bar, struck his op-
ponent fearful blow. Smith, covered
with streaming blood, drew his revol-
yer and, as Clark attempted to con-
tinue the attack, fired five shots at his
assailant. Two bullets took effect in
the region of the heart, causing in
stantaneous death.
Smith immediately disappeared
and the darkness concealed tn direc-
ton of his fight. The sheriff's office
was appris ed of the occurrence, and a
posse was started in pursuit of the
fugitive. No trace of him, howe yer,
has been discovered. He seems to
have vanished completely.
A description of Smith was tele-
graphed to every town in the state,
and it is not believed that he ca n
possibly escape. Smith is said to be
S feet inches tall and SIS years of
age. He wears a heavy dark mus
tache, which is streaked with gray.
His hair, too, shows a plentiful
sprinkling of gray and his face was
covered with about a weeks growth of
beard when he left camp. He was
clothed in dark suit of checked ma
terial, and had a brown hat.

w hite's construction camp north
east of Victor on the Bitter Root Val
ley Irrigation cornpany's canal was
the scene of bloody fight Monday
night, which ended in the killing of
Clarence Clark, a stable foreman, by
Robert Smith, a member of the plow-

The details of the trouble as reported
by members of the camp indicate that
it was give and take fight, with the
honors pretty evenly divided. The
ditch contractors had paid off their
men and Smith and Clark were in
Stevensville together Monday, where,
it is said, Clark obtaind loan of $50
from Smith. That evening Smith ap-
peared at Whites camp, and seeking out
Clark, demanded the return of the
money. Having only $40, Clark prof
fered that amount, which was refused
by his creditor, who answered with a
vile epithet. Workmen, attracted to

TO PROTECT TREES IN
WINTER Time
Cheap Girdle Suggested That
Will Keep Mice and Rabbits
Away from Them.

Fruitgrowers have had trouble Ike ep-
ing the mice and rabbits away from
their fruit and ornamental trees dur
ing the winter months, and not few
young trees have been killed by the
depredations of these pests. Prof. r.
w. Fisher of the state agriculture al
college, in an article written for the
Northwestern Stockmau and Fa rmer,
gives some valuable pointers about
how to prevent this destruction. The
professors advice follows:
Fruit and ornamental trees can be
protected from injury through sun
scald on the trunks and from girdling
by mice and rabbits by wrapping the
trunks with paper, burlap or other
materials which will shade the bark
and which the animals will not eat
through.
1--WE have found that the veneer tree
guard is the best material for this pur-
pose. This consists of a thin board
from 18 to 20 inches long and wide
enough to go around the tree. The
bottom is placed about an inch below
the surface of the ground so mice can
not get under. The guard is held in
place by tying heavy string around
ii or by wrapping with a fine wire.
Rabbits or mice will not eat through
these guards and they afford sufficien,
protection against injury from sun
| scald.
| Many hardy or half-hardy shrubs
will be much better for some winter
protection. Especially is this true il
the plants are in an exposed place
Such shrubs as spiraeas, hardy roses
Devtzias, ETC., can be grown with en-
tire success if they are given slight
protection during the winter. Ar
easy and cheap, as we'll as efficient
way, to protect these plants is to tit
the branches together by putting {
string about the base of the plant
another about half way up and thirt
string tight about the tips of th'
branches. Burlap or old gunny sack
are then wrapped about each plan
and securely tied IN place. The pro
lection given will keep the pla nts fron
winter killing"

ELECTRIC LIGHTS IN
BUSY VICTOR
New Power Plant Was Set
in Motion Saturday for
First Time.

Victor now has electric lights. The
new power plant on the Bitter Root
river east of the town was set in mo-
ton Saturday, and electricity was
sent flushing through the wires and
lit up the progressive little city for
the first time.
The new lighting system, which
was put in by J. S. Hodge, and indie
pendent promoter, is thoroughly mod
ern. The electricity is generated by
water power from plant operated en-
tirely by automatic machinery. Thus
the cost of maintenance is small, and
there is an abundance of power.
The business men and residents of
Victor are generously patronizlng the
new system. Most of the business
houses are now supplied with electric
lights, as we'll as a large number of
residences. Arc lights for the streets
have also been provided and are main.
tanned at the expense of the business
men.
The system is to be extended to Cor
wallis. Poles for the wires have been
set nearly to the town and the exten'
sion will probably be completed in
less than a month. Farmers who re.
side between Victor and Corvallis
may also use it, as the plant can sup
ply an abundance of Juice" The
new system, it is said, will ultimately
embrace a much larger territory thar
is now anticipated.

ONE BANK TAKES
500, 900 BLOCK
OWENS AQUEDUcT BONDS SELL
RAPIDLY
German-American Savings Institution
Subscrbes to Biggest Lot Since
State Took Half
Million

The German American Savings bank
yesterday subscribed to 100000 worth
of Owens aqueduct bonds, M. N. Avery
signing for the bank.
Directors at an informal meeting
agreed that the aqueduct subscriptions
should be encouraged and with this
decision made they set rapid pace.
The bonds number 100, each bearing
per cent interest from last December,
thus giving bonus of over two
months interest.
President w. S. Bartlett and the
board believe that nothing more sub
stantial than subscribing bonds can
be done now to relieve the unemployed
and encourage public work than to in
duce a general sale of this paper.
AS hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of machinery purchases have
taken up much of the preliminary
money subscribed the new allotments
will be used in Hiring and paying men.
The securities will be delivered i'm
mediately
Other Los Angeles banks have signi-
fled their willingness to subscribe to
the $4,000 lot of the current issue
which with private subscriptions will
probably absorb the series quickly.
The aqueduct board is anxious that
this be done as it will insure an ample
working capital for some months.
Ranking as municipal investments
they are available as security for de-
posits of city, county and state funds.
