Certainly the passing of the
big cowmen will be regretted by
mauy, even if the country has
been benefited by the result, fol
they are really and truly the
fathers of the country.
There are IN Northern Monta
ma today, former cowboys and
cattlemen who have either made
their pile and settled down tc
life of comparative ease or en-.
gagged in other lines of business.
They still retain their interest
in old scenes, old friendships
and former experiences and as.
sociations, and they never for
get the lessons taught by the
hard task.master, must, and the
tribute must demands. They
are all men Of sterling and stan =
dard worth. They are as a rule
successful in any other business
they may have taken up, and
they are numbered among the
nations pillars.

MIKE HEALEY
PASSED AWAY

Michael J. Healy, United
States inspector Of customs. and
one of the best known citizens o1
northern Montana, died at
Havre Sunday evening, after an
ILLNESS of two weeks. He was
born near Sun river 46 years
ago, and had spent almost all
of his life in this section. He
was undersheriff of Chouteau
county for several years and
took an active part in Ropubli-
can politics.
He was a member of the Ea.
giles and of the Hibernians. He
leaves a wife and four children,
the eldest 18 and the youngest
10. His funeral will be held
Wednesday from the Catholic
church.
No man in this part of Monta-
ma had more friends than Mike
Hea]y, as he was generally
known. While he was active in
campaign times in behalf of his
party and was for the ticket at
all times without regard to fac
tion, his friends were not con-
fined to any political party OF
class of people. Kind hearted
and generous, ever ready to
favor a friend, he was popular
with everyone, and as an Official
he was known as one who al.
ways could be depended upon te
do his whole duty.

NORTHERN LIGHTS
SEEN BY CITIZENS

The Northern Lights with all
their splendid and harmonizing
colors were visible in this city
last Saturday evening just at
9:15, and those who were lucky
enough to be star gazing at that
moment seen a sight the like of
which they may never see again.
This luminous meteoric phe-
nomena suddenly appeared in
the heavens in a crescent like
shape, and quickly assumed a
strange mysterious brilliancy of
pale yellow. This mysterious
picture soon changed into
streamers of a wavy appearance,
which looked like a great mass
of merry dancers. who appeared
to suddenly assume all the most
brilliant colors known to man.
Again their position was as sud-
denly and mysteriously shifted
as their appearance. This time
they assumed an arch of light
from east to west and moved
slowly into oblivion. One spot
in the east remained quiet for
several minutes, and assumed
a pale red, which sent the shiv-
ers through many a spectator
The sight is said to have beer
one of the best ever seen in the
country.

While the Malta range was
we'll known to all the stockmen
of the state in those days, there
was no such place as the town
Of Malta, with it's splendid re-
ligious edifices and it's palatial
hotels and spacious business
blocks, as she is seen today. It
was in the early COS that M. E.
Miner, the Kohrs, Seiben and
the Coburns, realized the con-
venience to ship from this point
which was then composed of q
two.room section house and a
small sidetrack. A request was
made of the railroad to con-
struct a stockyard here and it
was Immediately granted and
the old stockyards are in reality
responsible for Malta's exis.
tence.
In those days the combined
shipments of these outfits were
from 1900 to 1000 cars per year,
and they represented a combined
interest of about 100000 head of
cattle ON the range. However,
their blissful happiness was
short lived for soon other inter.
ests we're attracted here by the
wonderful success of the stock
men, and they slowly invaded
the territory. About eight or
nine years ago the sheepmen
realized that this was an ideal
shipping point. and would trail
here for miles around to ship
from the famous Malta stock
yards. A few years later they
established shearing pens and
became very material factors in
building up the country.
1t was, however, the cattle
men who suffered from this in.

up the country to their own un'
doing. Nevertheless. they new

and exemp]ify the great future

would mean their going out o1

For years when other parts of

outfits would move in. and in

In no nation in the world do the
elections have the effect upon bust

The reason is obvious. In the first
place the Tariff is made a political

industries are effected by any
changes made in tariff schedules
The moment there is any likeli-
hood of a change in Tariff SEIZED

certainty that causes temporary
cessation of business, until matters
are adjusted, and consequent dull

radical change in the Tariff policy
of the Government would be inev-

business depression.

TOLD BY THE THUMB.
One Way, So They Say, Of Reading q
Persons Character.

One Way, So They Say, Of Reading .
Persons Character.
The closer the thumb is set to the
wrist, the greater the amount OF anna
BILE qualities a person possesses. And.
conversely, the higher on the hand the
thumb is set, the lower the order Of his
mental and moral makeup.
Monkeys thumbs abut from the hand
at point close to the fingers. The
closer to this formation a human being
comes the more mOnkey-like intelli-
gence and character he is apt to have.
A thumb set very close to the wrist
shows sympathy for all in distress,
great generosity, independence, love of
liberty for self and others and q readi-
ness to share with the unfortunate.
When the second phalanx OF the
thumb is much longer than the nail
phalanx, there is a discordant relation
between reason and will.
Reason preponderates to such an ex-
tent that the entire life is spent IN
planning what to do without ever do
ing.
A person Of this kind sees clearly
what is best for him, but lacks de-
termination to put It into execution.
He sees the goal and the steps neces-
sary for attaining 1t, but in the same
glance he takes in all the obstacles,
and while he is bordering the matter
the opportunity to win success escapes.

CAN'T BE SEPARATED.
Some CIOyerpOrt People Have
Learned How To Get Rid

Backache and kidney ache are twin

You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the backache
until you cure the kidney ache.
If the kidneys are we'll and strong,
the rest of the system is pretty sure to
be in vigorous health.
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong,
healthy kidneys.
