ASK COUNCIL FOR
MORE POLICEMEN
Commissioners Would Like
Ten More PatrOImen at
Least

Much interest is centered on the
request Of the Board of Police Com
nissioners 90 city Council, for an in
crease in the appropriation of that De-
partment, from $4,000 to $4,000 an
nually, so that ten patrolmen can be
added to the present force.
Until the Council takes up the bud
get Of expenses for the ensuing fiscal
year II will not be known whether the
boards request can be granted.
The iremen and teachers are clam
bering for more money and should
their requests be granted, there is some
doubt whether there viii be sufficient
money left to meet the demands of the
Police Department.
That more policemen are needed is
an understood fact. Outlying districts
are much larger than can be properly
patrolled, and proficient police pro-
lection is almost impossible under the
circumstances. In the event Of Coun-
! ell increasing the appropriation of the
/ Department these districts can be di-
vided and, in consequence, better pa
trolled.
Extra police are needed on Market
street and for a time there was a
squad Of four men doing duty there but
Chief Of Police George Black decided
that the men there could be dispensed
with for time. and they arc now doing
duty in the outlying districts. Many
believe that there should be several Of
liccrs doing duty on the main street OF
the city, all the time. not only to pre-
serve order and regulate traffic but fol
the benefit Of the many strangers who
come 10 the city. Strangers generally
get on Market street, and on searching
for information naturally look around
for a policeman, and the latter under
present conditions Is not always avail

tain Market street squad but hasn't
enough men at his disposal for III,

in satisfactory condition; the retail
dry goods trade is becoming more ac-
tive, and on all sides signs are multi
plying that we have turned the cor
ner and that better times are ahead
1t is not to be supposed that the pc
riod of readjustment is ended that
must go on; because in many
cases prices of commodities are still
upon too high a plane. But the les
son is being taught that prosperity is
possible upon lower basis condi-
ton which is really more desirable
because more stable and also more
equitable when the necessities of life
can be had at more reasonable cost
The tariff question is now out Of the
way as a stock market factor. and
cannot even disturb general trade
very severely, as no harmful changes
in the schedule are expected"

BEN T|LLMAN WAITED
FOR A GENTLEMAN

Washington, April Ex-senator Till
man of South Carolina, has paid his
first visit to the White House today
in seven years and received a cordial
greeting from President Taft. His
appearance today in the executive Of
fees created a sensation. The senator
walked to the White House unac-
companied, but left with Senator
Beveridge of Indiana, riding to the
capitol with the latter in his auto
mobile. Booker r. Washington was
waiting to see the president when
Senator Tillman arrived. The South
Caroinan was Immediately shown
into Mr. Taft's office. The call was
purely of a social nature it was de-
Clared.
II came" said Senator Tillman,
Ito see if the office seekers had fried
any fat off the president, but they
have not fried a pound"
Asked why he had never visited the
White House in the past Senator
Tillman replied:
Il waited until "A gentleman got
there"

IN AFRICA.

Within twenty-four hours, if the
good ship Admiral sails on its sched
uled time, Mr., Roosevelt will reach
Mombasa, where he disembarks for
his trip through the jungle Dispatches
from the east coast announce that
there are great preparations making
for the reception and entertainment
of the American hunter There will
be hundreds of the big chiefs of the
he lands and there win be big ban
Duet rendered him by the Englishmen.
No matter how impatient he is to get
into the jungle, Mr., Roosevelt will be
compelled to pause for a while at the
seaport and recognize the courtesies
that are extended to him. He will, in
all probability, lose nothing by the
wait. There are things doing in the
interior apparently in his behalf The
dispatches say that there is record
breaking band of lions on the interior
plateau, waiting to be killed; there Is
band of elephants in the jungle,
larger than has been known for years.
Everything is shaping nicely and If
the ex president can escape the horde
of correspondents and photographers,
there will be nothing to mar the
pleasure or excitement of his tour.
This tour by the way is not to be as
extensive as some have imagined: The
Muscular last Sunday published a
map which showed the route which
the Roosevelt party will follow across
the eastern corner of Africa; it is not
long journey and it is far from
being a hazardous crossing of the
dark continent. But there is every
indication that the trip will be pleas
ant. The snowstorm which hit the
Bitter Root yesterday has quit and
that's a good sign.

CHE Err UP.

What though the clouds, after a cou-
pie of days absence hung low yes
terday and what though the snow fell
fast for a while, there is nothing in
there is not thing to inspire COM
plant Those who felt sorry yaster-
day morning for the Red Apple people
know that their sympathy was wasted,
for the opinion of SO eminent an
expert as j. O. Read is that an April
snow is worth a million dollars. Those
who felt sorry for the Eagles also
wasted their sympathy for the Mis-
soula Eagles are Webfooted and wet
track is what they like. Those who
felt sorry for the reputation OF the
Red Apple belt wasted their sympathy,
for the weather was not quite as bad
here as it was elsewhere Those who
felt sorry for the boosters wasted
their sympathy, for the Missoula
boosters boost best when they have a
little handicap. Those who felt sorry
for the spring flowers wasted their
sympathy, for the blossoms were the
better for the moisture and the pro
lection which the wet snow brought
Those who felt sorry for the real es.
tate men wasted their sympathy, for
the vendors of the best dirt on earth
needed a day indoors to catch up with
their work. Those who felt sorry for
anybody wasted their sympathy, I'M
less they bestowed it upon the fellow
who stood around and complained
There was nothing in that little snow
storm to make anybody feel bad II

that could have come to Mssoula.

GLASSES FOUR YEARS AGO,
WHICH CURED HER.

1t affords me great pleasure to
give DR. Dodd, the specialist on eye
and nervous diseases, a testimonial
Four years ago | consulted him AMI

me of headache, nervousness, indiges-
ton and constipation. | had been un-
able To find any permanent relief until
| consulted DR. Dodd had tried other
glasses with little or no benefit, and
| am fully convinced that there is
much more to the fitting of glasses
than many think. I am also equally
certain that there are hundreds of
nervous, sick men and women in Butte
who would be enjoying perfect health
II they We're not so foolish about wear
Ing glasses. I know several who are
aware Of the fact that their eyes are
being strained. but they imagine
glasses would make them look older.
when the fact Is glasses would relieve
them of many Of their wrinkles, which
are caused. as DR.. Dodd explained,

MINISTRATloN.

san Francisco, April 20-For the
tenth time since his confession was
recorded, in the early part OF 1907,
James l.. Gallagher, at one time
chairman of the board of supervisors,
was summoned to the witness stand

ruption that brought about the down.
fall Of the Ruef-Schmitz administra-
ton and the indictment of a score Of
prominent business men associated
with public service and other corpor-
ations. Attorneys representing the
president of the United Railroads pro-
tested vigorously against the admis-
sion of any Of Gallagher's vital an
sWers, contending that there had been
no proof Of any conspiracy implicat-
ing the defendant.
With Francis ]. Heney conducting
the examination, Gallagher declared
that he had talked with Ruef about
the application of the United Rail-
roads for an overhead trolley permit
before the fire, and that the former
boss had requested him to ascertain
If the permit would be granted by, the
board.
Il talked with several members of
the board" said Gallagher, land | re-
member that Andrew Wilson ex-
pressed belief that there should be
a large payment He mentioned $1O,-
600 for each member of the board. I
reported to Ruef that the ordinance
could be put through, and at this
meeting it was understood that | was
to receive $4,000, Wilson was to get
$4,000, and the others $4,000 each"
Gallagher testified that he had re-
ceived an aggregate of $4,000 in three
payments, but that he had disbursed
it to other members of the board in
two equal installments.
Throughout the day every seat in
the court room was occupied and the
police guard at the door regulated the
admission of spectators, who We're
kept in line outside the building.

MITCHELL ADDRESSES
YALE DIVINITY SCHOOL

New Haven, Conn, April 2O.-John
Mitchell, former president of the
United Mine Workers of America,
spoke today before the Yale divinity
school.
There are" said he, six ends which
trades unions are striving to attain;
a wage suitable to the American STAN
dard of living, the eight hour day
child labor laws, employers liability
improved working conditions and the
preservation of the constitutional guar
antee Of free speech, free press and
trial by jury, and it is to attain these,
all other methods failing, that resort
is made to strikes and boycotts. There
is more in a strike than wages or
hours Of labor and strike may be a
loss from monetary standpoint and
a great gain in a higher and nobler
sense"

NATION DEFRAUDED
OF CUSTOMS DUTY

New York, April 20-Further in
Vestigation of the smuggling of Paris
gowns into this port lead the custom
house officials today to declare that
the organization has probably SNUG.
gled in Sl,000000 worth of goods per
year for the last 10 years, thus de-
frauding the government out of 5000
GOO annually in customs duty
Efforts to avoid criminal prosecu-
ton and to shield from publicity the
prominent women for whom the $50
GOO worth of recently seized gowns
We're intended, resulted in the offer by
reputable attorneys, representing
anonymous clients, of $260,OO0 to the
government to drop the investigation
The federal grand jury is inveSti-
eating the ease and it is intimated
that the Identity of the smugglers will
be revealed.

waved their handkerchiefs, and even
their peach basket hats, to the pom
derous, bowling and blushing "unde-

BETTER AND BETTER.

Reports from the east are that bus
mess is improving and. aside from the
trouble in the wheat market there is
nothing that mars the forward move
ment of business in all lines Analyz-
ing the situation in his weekly letter
Henry Clews says:
In business circles there are con-
tinued signs of revival This is par
ticularly true Of the building trades,
In which there is much activity in
the erection of buildings resulting
from cheap money, lower raw mate
rails and increased efficiency of labor.
There is also much activity In the
structural department of the steel in
dustry. The railroads are now plac-
ing orders more freely and it is not
improbable that April will be a record
breaking month in structural material
orders. OF course, prices are exceed
ingly low and in many cases profit has
been reduced to minimum. AS a re-
suit economies are being forced in
every direction, sometimes by LESSEN
ing the force. sometimes by lowering
wages. Another sign of activity is
shown in the large purchases Of wool
by manufacturers who see orders
