This plan. according 10 Mrs. Hale. is 20
start an organized, orderly, systematized
movement throughout the South. eneour-
aging the gradual exodus OF the negroes
from the Southern section OF the country
into the North and Northwest until there
should be a more even distribution Of the
races
-Southerners are inconsistent" said
Mrs. Hale. no Southern man has laid
his hand on a practical plan 70 enable the
negroes 70 go 10 some other section than
The South. II we Southerners would only
go about the race question In the right
way, with the help of the NoTtherners,
true unity could be secured
Because the bulk Of the negroes are in
the South, il is a sectional question. Be
cause il is a sectional question. II is a pO-
liticsl question AS long as it is a politi-
cal question. nothing toward a solution
can be reached
We are perfectly willing 10 admit that
much of our diStaste for the negro rests
on prejudice. But Il Is a prejudice guard

ciple is in turn guarding tremendous in

TAKING UP THE RAILS.

A work train with large force of mon
is at work tearing up the track between
Marion and the old station of Lakevicw
A report to that effect was current Satur-
day, and the Inter Lake interviewed the
local railroad people in regard to it, They
said they knew nothing about it, and it
could not be without their knowledge.
Therefore there was nothing to it.
Whether they really did not know it, OF
were merely pretending, does not matter
The rails are being taken up.
1t is reported that the rails are being
unloadcd and stacked at Marion, and
that the bridge timbcrs along the way are
to be taken up and used i'll repair work
on the Montana Central. That is the talk
but there is no confirmation from official
sources. The railroad people are mum as
oysters when asked about it.-Kalispel

INTERESTING GAME OF
BASEBALL

Whitefish and Columbia Falls crossed
bats Sunday at the latter place, the game
being won by Whitetish by score of 10
to 5. The local team was accompanied
to our sister city by hundred or more
enthusiasts, including the band, and the
day was greatly enjoyed by all. Most of
the crowd went out on the morning
train, and spent the entire, day in the
pretty little city OH the Flathead, but
there were some who drove down,
and who arrived in time to see the game.
The day was somewhat rainy, and the
grounds were not in good shape for fast
ball playing, which was the main reason
for the high scores, but there was some
excellent ball playing on both sides, and
the game was highly interesting.
Olson, the Columbia Falls pitcher,
pitched a good game, except in the first
inning, when the Whitefsh team run in
four scores, while Laird, for Whitefish,
pitched his usual steady game.
The game went off pleasantly in every
respect, amid band music and about an
equal amount Of good-natured roofing
for each side.
The local railroad officials gained the
hearty good will of the Whitefish crowd
by sending down a special car to bring
them home after the game, which was
in charge of Assistant Superintendent
VIM. Carswcl.
An unfortunate incident occurred
during the game, when Fitzpatrick Of
Columbia Falls was struck in the car by
pitched bali and almost knocked out.
Columbia Falls has an excellent base
ball club, composed of young men of
exemplary character who know how to
play tie game, and they will give White
fish two rafting good games when the
teams meet here on July I.
Although tic score would indicate that
Whitefish won the game easily, the local
team should not feel over-confident, for
had it not been for the course OF events
in the Gxst inning there might have been
u different story t. tell

MURDER AND SUICIDE
AT FORTINE
Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Fortine, June pa most shocking
tragedy occurred here on Wednesday
afternoon of last week. A neighbor go
ing to the home of Frank Yoakum and
his father, who lived on their ranches
about four miles from Fortine, found the
body of Frank Yoakum in the house
and that OF his father lying in the yard
near the garden fence, both having been
killed by gunshot wounds.
The coroncr's inquest was held at
Eureka OH Monday, the bodies not hav-
ing been found until late Friday evening,
and the jury found that the father had
been killed by his son, Frank, who then
committed suicide.
When the bodies were examined it was
found that Frank Yoakum had been shot
once through the head; he also had a
bruisc OH the temple which was made by
some blunt instrument, probably the hoe
which was found near his father. The
evidence showed that the shot in the
head was self-inflicted, for the revol-
yer was still clcncled III his hands
when the body was found. The
father was shot through the thigh, the
bullet ranging, upward and lodging in
the abdomen, and once in the upper arm
and once through the head.
Near the garden fence where Mr.
Yoakum was lying there were evidences
of a desperate struggle. There were no
eye witnesses to the tragedy, but the sup
position is that after Frank returned
from Eureka Wednesday evening, he
and his father had quarrclcd, and that
his father had struck him with the hoe,
which had SO infuriated him that he
killed his father, and in his rcmorse,
after realizing what he had done. he
went into the house and into his bedroom
and took his own life.
| The elder Mr.. Yoakum was past 70
and the son about % years of age, and
both owned considerable property. They
were originally from Kentucky. They
had no relatives in this vicinity.
+ The bodies were inferred in the Eureka
cemetery Tuesday afternoon.
