The Navy Octopus

Those who are wondering why a great
fleet of battleships have been goinH
around the world for over a year Tin
time of peace). would do we'll to read the
discussion in congress (now going on) as
TO how much money it. requires to keep
such a navy afioat and how much the tax
payers of this union are forced to pay to
support this great octopus. known as the
navy.
Nearly one hundred and fifty millions
of dollars must be appropriated to pay
this navy bill; for the next twelve months
and the fleet of battleships have been
junketing and pleasure-seeklng as be-
fore stated for considerably more than
twelve months. Every new battleship
soaks up from six to eight millions OF
dollars to build. The pay roll and sub
sistence account will soak up several
other millions before this battleship
rots and is sold as junk. and the princi-
pay use. we seem to have for this costly
navy. is to furnish travel and pleasure
seeking for a great lot OF pleasure-seek-
ers. aboard the ships
Is the game worth the candle?
The officers on board such battleships
seem to be privileged to invite their own
guests to travel with them. and the tax
payers foot the bill OF entertainment II
that isn't cheeky. what Is It.
1t looks very much as II the big fish
are eating up the little ones very fast.
II seems as if the great mass OF our
people are becoming iewers of wood and
drawers of water to give the favored
ones a very good time. If the pension
business does not bankrupt the nation
Il looks very much as IL the navy busl>
ness will eat mp every. spare dollar that
is left What are we coming TO?

Sold Liquor to Aid Consumptive

MACON, Ca, March 9.-Unless the pris-
on commission of Georgia acts today,
Gordon Bailey. a young man of this coun-
~, will have to begin working out sem
tence of II months upon the chain gang.
The only other alternative is the pay
ment of $3.50 fine which was imposed
upon him by the city court of Macon for
violating. the prohibition law. Bailey IS
without the Pounds and his case is pathet-
ical one for several reasons.
He has a brother who is a victim of
consumption and it was in order to Sc
cure him certain necessities of life that
ne sold liquor. When he entered plef
of guilty in the city court he thought he
would get off with fine less than 800.
so the fine of $3.50 proved appalling to him.
His case was taken before the prison
commission which body has not acted fin
ally. All 1t had to say was that the case
would be looked into at a later date.

PLEASANT SESSION

Last Monday evening the local
chapter of the Eastern Star held
one of their pleasant sessions. After
the regular routine of business was
over with, the refreshment commit
tee repaired to the ante-room and
brought out a sumptuous luncheon.
During the course of the luncheon
Hon. f. Nj. Hutchinson acted as
toastmaster and a numl er of the
new members and visitors respond
ed to the toats.
AS Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. South
wick, both members of this order,
are leaving the city they were pre-
sented with a beautiful berry dish
as a token of esteem from the men,
bers of Vista Chapter. E. M.
Hutchinson made very appropri-
ate presentation speech in behalf OF
the chapter. expressing regrets that
two such Jealous members were to
leave this lodge.

MORE FAST MAILS

The Great Northern mail-express
trains running between St. Paul
and Seattle clips just 13 hours from
the time made by the Oriental
Limited and makes it the fastest
mail train in the United States for
the length of distance that it has to
travel.
Reports are now current that the
Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget
Sound will inagurate to the Pacific
coast on October ID, mail train
which will attempt to cut by two
hours the schedule which has been
established by the Great Northern.
The Milwaukee road has the best of
it on account of having little the
shorter route, but they have not got
a roadbed to stand the fast running
like the Great Northern has.
The Northern Pacific seems to be
butting in also, so before long it is
likely to be a three-cornered fight
to see who will get the mail con-
tract which will be let in the spring.

A SAD CASE

A sad case of desertion has been
witnessed in our city during the
past few weeks in the Qualey
family at Lakeside.
Mr.. Qualey had a good position
with the John F. Lindhe Co., but
could not keep away from strong
drink. After getting on a protrac-
ted spree some months ago he dis
appeared, leaving his family consist
ing of a wife and three small chill
dren in a destitute condition.
He was heard from in Spokane
once, when he wrote to his wife
saying that he was sick at the time
and hoped that they were all we'll.
Since then the loyal little wife, too
proud to ask the assistance OF
neighbors has been in a pitiful
situation, but the neighbors after
finding out her condition did all
they could to help her.
Last Friday she gave up all hopes
of ever getting any assistance from
her husband and feeling that she
was imposing ON her friends she
packed up and went to the poor
house at Kalispell with her three
little children, the youngest one
being less than year old.

The mail service on the new fast
mail train on the Great Northern
commenced last Monday with the
rain leaving St. Paul at 8 a. m.
arriving here Tuesday at II a. m.
Heretofore express only was
carried on this train but now the
regular mail service is in effect.
With the installation of service
on this train railway postoffice
service on train No. 3 has been dis
continued between Glasgow and
Seattle, but no change has been
made in the service of trains No.
1, 2 and 4.
The fast train will exchange mail
with Malta, Harlem, Chinook,
Havre, Shelby, Cut Bank and all
offices west of Cut Bank except
Essex and Bolton.
This will give us the best of mail
service, as the mail comes in from
the east at II a. m. and that will
give ample time to answer letter
and get it out again on the evening
train if necessary, but it will put
Kalispell farther out of the way
than ever, because all mail from
Kalispell is put off at Cut Bank,
where it has to wait for No. 3, and
then be forwarded by express, as
No. 3 will not have a mail car west
of Glasgow.
The following clerks have been
temporarily assigned to the service
on the fast mail:
East division-Haupt, McFar-
land, Vanleppeloy, Smith and
Anderson.
West division-Hanson, Rey-
nolds, Nelson and Donaghty. On
this division there will be one clerk
in charge from Whitefsh to Spo-
kane and three helpers from Rex
ford to Spokane. Two of the help
ers will deadhead to Rexford on
train No. 4 and one will perform
service on train No. 2 to Rexford
The above assignment of clerks
is temporary. If full railway post
Office service is established, promo
ton of clerks will be made on their
records, due credit being given to
their seniority on the line.
