THE SEEDS OF SUCCESS.

"The only recipe that | know OF
that is likely to achieve success is
hard work and an undivided interest
in whatever a young man undertakes"
Paul Morton.
Paul Morton, president of the
Equitable Life Assurance society; be-
gan his business career as $25-a-
month clerk in the land Office of the
Burlington & Missouri railroad, at
Burlington, Iowa. He was no better
off than a dozen or so other clerks,
but when there was an important task
to complete he never looked at the
clock, and he often came back at
night to finish up.
1t took Mr.. Morton from 1873 until
1898. just rs years, to climb from this
insignificant railroad clerkship to the
vice presidency of the Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fe railroad. In that
period Mr.. Morton easily put in ten
years overtime for which he never
was paid. But he got business train
ing that made him competent to di-
rect successfully the great affairs of
the United States navy when he was
appointed a cabinet member, and la
ter on to direct one of the biggest
insurance companies in the world.
"How long will Mr.. Morton remain
at his Officer" was asked of his sec
rotary at l20 Broadway.
Until he has cleared away every
pending matter of business" was the
reply.
"How long will that be?'
"Well, Mr.. Morton may get through
by 6 o'clock" was the answer still,
if not, l would not be surprised if he
were down here tonight. He never
lets a day get ahead of him."
"Will you please explain OF what
benefit is a good liberal education,
and how long ought young man de-
vote himself to it?' Mr.. Morton was
asked
"a young man who starts out to
win his way in the world with tech
meal education has about the same
| advantage over a competitor without
an education that locomotive pos
sesses over an OK team" said Mr.
Morton. Everything is in its favor
to start with but don't forget thai
a locomotive can be wrecked in many
ways and with bad handling may no
get to its destination with as much
satisfaction as the OK team.

A WARNING
TO FARMERS
Stallion Registration
Board Gives Out
Information

Bozeman, Mont, Dec. "a, 1909.
This is the season Of the year
when farmers should be wise. If
they are not, they may get stations
that cannot stand for public service.
This Board has repeatedly given
warning, and there are parties in
the state selling stations that can
not stand for public service,
L. M. Hartley, of Salem, Iowa,
shipped six stations to Billings,
Montana, in violation of the stall
lion law. His agent, E. f. Make.
plead guilty and paid the fine as
sessed. Two Of these stations cam
not stand for public service in
Montana. One of these stations
is French draft, ten years old,
black in color, has star, and some
white on inside of right hind foot,
His name is "Alyarez,' registra-
ton number 10000, weighs about
l,8OO pounds, is about IL hands
high, and is chronic roarer, that
is, affected with laryngeal hemi-
plegia, disqualification mentioned
in the Stallion Law of 1909.
The other stallion is Percher-
on, four years old, bay in color,
has a star and is smooth and
chunky. His name IS ''Theophile
Gauntier,' registration number
572l7, weighs about l, $50 pounds,
is about l65 hands high, and has q
side bcac 4t tlso utsil+ Of right
front foot, also mentioned as a dis
qualification for public service, in
the Stallion Law Of 1909.
Prosecution is pending against
other parties IN the state, and pros
pective buyers should look out for
unsound and diseased horses, as
they may get stations that cannot
stand for public service. The aim
is to compel observance Of the law,
SO that Montana will not get the
refused unsound and diseased stall
lions from other states, that have
stallion registration laws.
Persons knowing Of stallions be-
ing shipped to Montana will please
notify the Stallion Registration
Board, Bozeman, Montana.

THE CLOSE Of
THE YEAR
Review the Past, That
the Future may be
Happier Therefor

The close of the year is always
time for serious thought and refec-
ton. The past crowds upon us at
this time with far more than usual
intensity and especially forces upon
our attention our faults, failures
and mistakes. Let us look them
squarely in the face and profit by
them. The wise man always does
this, but the fool never. The lat
ter goes on committing the same
follies and making the same mis-
takes, never profiting by his past
experience, to say nothing Of the
experience of others. Every man
makes mistakes, It may not be
his fault the first time, but it is if
he makes the same mistake a sec
ond time. We helieve that the
secret Of success with those who
succeed, and the cause Of failure
with those who fail, will be found
largely in the ability and disposi-
ton to study the causes Of both
success and failure, not only in
ones own experience but in that
of others.
The farmer now has leisure to
review the operations Of the year,
and he should do it candidly and
critically. Make a complete analy-
sis Of every important operation.
Find the weak places in it and
trace them to their origin. Moth
ing will prepare one SO Thoroughly
for the operations of the year to
come as this kind of searching in
vestigation.
And while we are about this
business we should look just as
carefully into our record of moral
responsibility. We should be far
more anxious to improve character,
mind and morals than to improve
our farms. Serious study of our
weak points and of means to
strengthen them is a very profit
able business at any time, and if
pursued assiduously will strength
en- and develop all that is good and
admirable in our natures, and make
rs better, stronger, nobler men and
women as the years go by. And
the time will come in the life of
every one when such record of
honest, earnest, persistent effort
to improve will afford far greater
satisfaction than anything else in
his account with this world. We
can wish no better thing for all our

Glendive, Dec. 25. - Christmas
Eve gave place to a tragedy at
Newton, in the lower Yellowstone
valley, about fifty miles from Glen
dive, when J. w. Olinger shot and
killed Daniel Keaton in Olinger's s
saloon.
Bal blood had existed between
the two men for a long time. Kea-
ton was released from the county
jail only two days ago, having
served a term for keeping a disor-
derly house. Olinger was instru-
mental in securing Keaton's arrest
and conviction. It is presumed
here that Keaton went to Olinger's
saloon last evening to square ac-
counts and the trouble ensued. -

GOVERNORS
MESSAGE
To the llth Legislative
Assembly in Extra
ordinary Session:

You have been convened in ex-
traordinary session, in accordance
with the request Of a large majority
of the members of this Assembly,
for the purposes stated in the call,
as follows:
First. To consider and, if
found desirable, to appropriate
such additional sum as may be
necessary to permit the purchase
Of materials of every kind or char
acter produced or manufactured in
Montana that may be used in the
construction of the Capitol addi-
tions, and to make any amendments
to the Act authorizing the construc-
ton Of said additions the Legisla-
tive Assembly in it's wisdom may
deem advisable.
'Second. To make an appro-
priation for the support Of the Pub
licity Department and for advertis-
ing the resources Of the State for
fiscal year 1910"
You have heretofore committed
to the State Board Of Examiners
the duty of building the additions
to tine Capitol. The Board is now
performing that duty. With every
act Of the Board 50 far performed,
and with every arrangement 50 far
made for the construction of the
wings, | have at all times been in
absolute accord. You have not
been convened on account Of any
dissatisfaction on my part with any
thing that has been done, or with
anything that has been arranged
for by the Board.
The enactment of the law author
izing the construction of the wings,
any amendment that may be deemed
necessary to be made thereto, the
providing of funds to pay the cost
of construction, and any and oil
regulations relative to the amount
that may be paid for labor or ma
terials, are purely legislative func-
tions.
I have been constrained to grant
your request and give you oppor-
tunity to assemble and exercise your
best judgment, rather than to deny
your petition and thereby arrogate
myself a legislative prerogatiye.
Full authority has been given
you in the call to enact amend
ments, provide additional funds,
select materials, and make or
change any regulations that in your
Judgment may seem advisable.
The report Of the Board Of Elk.
aminers, showing what has been
done and the plans that have been
outlined for the furtherance of its
duty, is submitted herewith. Your
approval or further directions now
seem in order. In my opinion, the
Board has in every instance fol
lowed the plain provisions of the
law heretofore enacted by you, and
, further responsibility is now com
mitted to the Legislative Assembly
the supreme authority. That some
of the materials entering into the
construction Of the wings can bt
produced elsewhere cheaper thar
Montana materials of like kind an(
J quality, seems to be an unques
} toned fact. Whether it is advis
5 5 able to pay a higher price for ma
!. terials produced and manufactured
in Montana than that for which
materiols of like kind and qualit.
can be procured elsewhere, and,
SO, how much, you only, in view Q
the law now in force, may decide
