Retail Merchants Association
Notifies Police of His
Presence in City.
SEARCH is BEING MADE
Ladies' Home Journal People
Wire Here That He is
Likely an Impostor.

Action has been taken by the Re
tail Merchants Association of Clarks-
burg to apprehend a solicitor who
worked in this city for number of
days getting subscriptions for the
Ladies' Home Journal, who, the as
sociation suspects, is swindler.
The solicitor engaged the services
of two or three boys here to assist
him in making house-to-house can
vass in the residential portions of the
city for yearly paid-in-advance sub
scrlptions to the Ladies' Home Jour
nal for $1.0O each with which prom
ise was made to send, free OF charge,
the American Magazine and set OF
pictures.
"A number of such subscriptions
were taken in the city and finally in
formation was sent to the merchants
association concerning the method
employed, which, 1t is claimed, Is
method not employed by the pub
fishers of the Ladies' Home Journal.
President Lloyd Souders, of the
association, took the matter up ON
behalf of the association and sent the
following letter to the Curtis Pub
fishing Company. Philadelphia, pub
fishers of the Ladies Home Journal:
The Curtis Publishing Company,
Philadelphia, Pa.
Gentlemen:-A young man, about
16 years Of age, is canvassing this
city, representing The Ladies Home
Journal and taking yearly subscrlp-
tions for said magazine, at 800, pay
able in advance. AS an additional
inducement, years subscription to
The American Magazine,"s also
some pictures free.
This being so unusual and entirely
foreign to your manner of soliciting
subscriptions, we think you should
know 1t.
Respectively yours,
RETAIL MERCHANTS ASSN.
Lloyd Souders, President.
In reply to this letter, Mr.. Souders
Saturday forenoon received tele-
gram from the Curtis Publishing
Company, as follows:
Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. /, 1908.
Lloyd Souders, President,
Clarksburg Retail Merchants Assn.
Agent not authorized. Twenty
five dollars reward for arrest and
conviction of fraud for taking Ladies'
Home Journal and Post slIbscrintions.
Signed.
CURTIS PUBLISHING co.
Publishers Ladies' Home Journal.
Mr.. Souders notified Chief of Po-
lice Stealey Of the action he had tak-
en- and showed him the letter and
telegram. Mr.. Stealey and his force
are looking for the solicitor. Word
was received Saturday that the man
had left the city and had gone to
another city in the state.
According to information given to
the merchants association, the solicit
or represented himself to he acting
for the Ladies Home Journal Com
pany and is reported as signing re-
ceipts for subscriptions as such. AS
the Curtis Publishing Company does
not authorize solicitors to take or
ders for them in this manner, Mr..
thinks there Is something out
OF the way concerning the subscrip-
tions taken in Clarksburg and adj
vises residents here not to give out
their money for the same until the
case has been cleared up.

WILL BUILD DODSON DAM.
Site Definitely Located BY Engineers
Of Reclamation Service.

The location OF the Dodson dam
that will divert the waters OF Milk
river for irrigation of the lower por-
ton OF the valley, is definitely estab.
lished by o water right filed in the
county clerks Office by II. N. Savage,
as agent for the United States gov
eminent. It will be built at a point
about three and one-half miles west of
Dodson, the official record of the site
locating it at the southwest corner of
section %, in township 81 north range
20 east.
1t is stated that the dam will be 20
feet high, about $50 feet long, with an
earthen embankment about 5000 feet
in length. The water right filed by
the reclamation service claims 1000
cubic feet per second of the flow of
Milk river, for the purpose OF irrigat.
ing about 159, 900 acres of land in the
counties of Chouteau and Valley.
Another water right filed by the re-
clamation service claims 1000 cubic
feet per second from the Davidson
coulee, to be used in irrigating about
142, 600 acres of land between that
water course and the mouth of Milk
river. The filing OF these documents
/ will soon be followed by the com.
mencement of work on that part OF
the project to which they relate.

Philbrook Citizens Protest.

According to the Lewistown Dem
ocrat, there Is much opposition by
people living in the Judith valley In
the neighbordood of the old town OF
Phibrook to the announced intention
of the Billings & Northern Railroad
company to change the lame of the
proposed town on the Judith river
from Philbrook to Hobson. This op.
position has taken the form of q petit
ton, signed by 80 per cent OF the
people in that part of the county, re-
questing the railroad company to
permit the old name to remain a. the
designation of the new town.
It is pointed out that Philbrook is
one of the historic names in the Judith
Basin. It was the name of the first
important trading point in the county
and much of the earlier history of the
Basin centers around the old town.
To all of the old residents the name
Of Philbrook calls up memories Of the
early eighties when the old town was
the scene Of numerous stirring adven'
lures, many happy days. many JOY
Gus nights.

Norris Boosts For Montana.

According to a Washington special
to the Butte Miner, q brief address
was made by Governor Norris at the
Thursday session of the conference of
governors. His remarks referred
principally to forest reserves in Mon.
tana, and were in part as follows:
"Those spots upon the map, though
they comprise q, ZOO, 900 acres in Mon
tana, we don't object to; we would
not blot them out. But l would
suggest, Mr.. Secretary, that there be
nc more. We have sufficient. We
want forest reserves to protect the
forests, because the forests protect
the watersheds. They give US water
for the reclaim alton of arid lands, and
Montana generally, although hereto
fore known as O great mining state
only, will in a few years be known as
one of the great agricultural states.
"When l hear you gentlemen talk
about producing 10 or 20 bushels of
wheat per acre it makes me think that
l would like to take you into the
Judith basin in our state, where last
wear on dry land they produced 60
bushels of wheat 20 one acre, and were
not specially vain of that yield either.
With irrig alton we can produce 100 to
l25 bushels of oats per acre, weighing
AZ pounds to the bushel, while l be-
lieve the usual weight is % pounds 20
the bushel. Tha: is something Mon.
tana can do.
but, gentlemen, we do protest and
we do object to using a forest reserve
as a means for regulating the ranges
| of the west. 10 other words, we DO
object to levying tribute upon the
stockmen who Craze their herds and
their Hocks in order to get money to
| Protect the forest reserves"

Crushed In Machinery.

GREAT FALLS, May 15-The fast
moving belts and the rapid whirling
shafting in the concentrator at the
Boston & Montana smelter claimed
another victim this forenoon in
William ]. Breen, a young man Of
Butte, who had been employed at the
place for only a short Tina.
Like the death of Peter Conrad in
the concentrator just a week ago the
death of Breen was undoubtedly due
to inexperience about the machinery
and lack of care in his movements.
