in the city of Billings we're raised from
s240 a year to s54O, the maximum al
lowed by the state law, at a meeting
of the city council, during which every
phase OF the question of limiting the
number of saloons in the city was
thoroughly threshed out. When the
adoption of the ordinance was voted
on, Alderman Gates was the only
member of the council who voted no.
HELENA. June 4.-The Montana
Mining association proposes making
q vigorous presentation on the ques.
ton of alleged exorbitant freight
rates at the hearing on the matter
which has been ordered by the state
board of railroad commissioners for
June II. Both the railroad board and
members of the association have taken
1t upon themselves to secure q repre-.
sentative attendance, while, OF course,
the carriers interested will be repre-.
sented by counsel, judging from prece.
dent established at previous hearings.
BILLINGS, July 4.-The Billings
Sugar company is planning extensive
Improvements on It's big plant for this
summer and work will be started at

and a large storage house will be
erected. The storage house will be

provements mentioned, the feed yards
will be enlarged and additional sheds
will be constructed.

dam was blown out late last night in
order to relieve the pressure Of the
water which stood about q foot deep

Reports were circulated around the
city at a late hour that the Chessman
reservoir dam of the Helena Water
Works company, situated about 10
miles above Broadwater, had gone
out, but officials of the company EN-.
phatically denied this report.

They will start out q crew of men in q
few days to rush the work of construc.

Harlem News: Speaking about rain,
we're getting 1t all right now in the
Harlem district. Mondays rain wat
a hummer, and water enough fell to
pretty nearly set everything aaoat.
Wednesday afternoon, by the time the
first rainfall had got we'll soaked in,
two more soaking showers fell, and
the ground now has about all the mois-
ture it will hold. Nothing can pre-
veut a rousing big crop of everything
that grows in the ground.
Malta Enterprises: A conserv ative
estimate on additional plowed land in
this vicinity this year is placed; by
by men who claim to know, at about
50, 900 acres. 1t is further said that
practically all of this land will be
seeded to grain. II this is true, II is
certainly going to place this city ia q
position where an effort will have to
be made to take care Of the crop for
the farmers, and it is not too early to
begin devising plans for a storage
house or an elevator.

Personal Appearance Counts
High In Getting a Position.
BY JAMES J. HILL. Railroad rasnatc.

BY JAMES } HILL Railroad rasnatc.
I is one thing to get a position. It is another thing to keep it.
Getting a position requires tact, forccfulness and perspcuity.
~ KEEPING A POSITION is AN ART. Getting posi-
tons is accomplished by a large number of men and women,
but the number Of those who can keep positions is but small.
WHEN ONE STARTS TO LOOK FOR A POSITION HE MUST
POSSESS THE QUALITIES OF CLEANLINESS, CLEARNEss AND
PERsPIcUlTv. so MUCH DEPENDS UPON THE FIRST impress.
SION. LAX METHODS, UNkEMPT HAIR, soiLED FINGERS, A
NEckTiE AWRY AND CONFUSED SPEECH ARE SOME OF THE
FAULTS THAT DESTROY THE CHANCES OF AN APPLICANT.
When a man who is conducting a successful business advertises
for a janitor 0 a private secretary he goes to his Office and finds
several dozen applicants awaiting him. He hears them one by one
and notices that this young man has failed to polish his shoes, that
that young woman talks with a discordant slang, that So-and-so is
carrying the end Of a cigarette in his yellow, nicotined fingers II that
Miss This-and-th is overadorned with cheap jewelry. He finds that
one young man is utterly incapable of expressing himself clearly and
that another has a newspaper with a chart of the horse races sticking
from his pocket.
Each applicant is denied a chance because HIS OUTWARD
APPEARANCE AROUSES SUSPICION, and the merchant, sick,
disheartened and Disguised with humanity, goes home or to his club
to forget his unpleasant half day.
These statements may seem exaggerated, but they are the plain,
unvarnshed experiences that business men encounter every day.
Frequently employers are obliged to engage sovcnly, untidy men and
women whom they dislike because the advances of their business
demand more workers and the right kind is not to be had. But you
may be assured that when business slackens SUCH EMPLOYEES
ARE THE FIRST TO GO.

Railroads Anxious For
Transportation Reforms.

By ROBERT MAriER. President. Of he Rock Island Company
FEAR that the public but dimly realizes the WILLINGNESS
OF THE RAILROADS to accept and to further the re-
forms in transportation methods that recent changes in our
laws and in their administration have produced. The effective
prohibition of rebates and of free transportation and the elimination of
the many forms of determinations which expressed the subservience
of the carriers to the large shippers mark the emancipation of the rail
roads frc: = slavery to abuses to which none of them would return.
MOST OF THEM ARE NOT ONLY WILLING BUT ANXIOUS TO
COOPERATE IN ANY POLICY OF REASONABLE REGULATION
THAT WILL MAINTAIN THEIR BUSINESS ON THE HIGHER PLANE
OF MORALITY 70 WHICH IT HAS THUS Been FoRcl1LY LIFTED.
It continues, however, to be the claim of the railroads that they
shall not be so regulated as to be PREVENTED FROM EARNING
INTEREST on their bonds and REASONABLE DIVIDENDS on
their stocks.

As ALWAYS At A TIME OF ACUTE SOCIAL EXCITEMENT, THE

Lincoln wa neither mawkish nor sensational. He frankly sought
public Office. He never sought it by unworthy means. His sustaining
trust was in the honesty Of the ordinary citizen, whose life is neither
the comfortable Incidence that shrinks from all change nor the broken
career that leaps to embrace a gospel of despair: His weapons were
endless patience, cheerful good nature, Astounding common sense and
an abiding faith in his cause. He despised claptrap. He embodied a
cause, not a candidacy. He did not fight fire with fire. He faced hot
excitement with cold reasoning and mad vtuperation with clear truth.

Rats on ships.

"Are rats destruetive3 Well" said
q captain OF a merchantmen. II once
knew them 10 get through $1,000 worth
OF stun in Eve days.
Japan docs an immense trade with
China In cocoons, and the hrst time !
carried such n cargo they were packed
In sacks. When We got 10 Hongkong
we found that the rats had discovered
that part Of a cocoon was good 20 cat.
and the bill for their board came to
$1,000. The shipownera were sued FOR
that amount; but, the packing being
considered faulty, the claim was dis
allowed. IL was the FIRST aud last co.
coon feast the rats had, for ever since
japan has packed cocoons in zinc lined
cases.
EVERY time n ship gets back TO LiY-
erpooI a rat catcher IN set to clearing
out the rats, but by the time we have
loaded up again the rodents are every
bit as numerous. In some ports we use
rat guards on the ropes. and the ship
IL always fumigated before taking a
cargo OF fruit or tea. But there b no
getting rid OF them entirely. "--London
