LlBRO ALBERTO

Hace algtln tempo es sabido que los Esta-
dos Unidos ldearon cOmprdr la vecina isla de
Saint Thomas. Ell pefion antlano habitado
por gran numero de hombres que allf han ma
cido que lie aman porque tienen no mistif-
cada noclon del patriotismo, no fue vendido.
Consideration veiaminoso los hijos de aque-
liza lsla, que Sc les vendera. FL reg de Dina
marca, dando leyantada leccion de democra-
cia q gObiernOs de republicas que perpetran
ejemplos eXternos de todo 10 contrario, some
tic ell case la hbre conciencia de los santo-
menos. Quiso resolverlo dd referendum. Me
ior dicho, por medacion plebiscitaria. ell
voto unanime fue adverse La propuesta COM
prd.
He ahf un case cuya elocuencia necesita
concentrates. Saint Thomas, es una Antilla,
en- donde el idioma ingles predomina. Las
condolences Gle sus habitantes, son las mismas
de casi todos los pueblos antillanos. Son hom-
bres iaboriosos, inteligentes, activos Pose
yendo estas virtudes, la adicion de series
familiar Ell habla inglesa, entire ell cetro de la
monarquia y la purpura del gorro frigio, pare
ce aparentemente no comprenderse como la
votacion pebiscitaria no fuese favorable al
prop0sito del gobierno de los Estados Unidos?
Cerca tenfa Saint Thomas ell case de Puerto
Rico. Parece evidente que clio debi6 influir
en- ell amino ptlblico de la diminuta isla. Puer-
to Rico, con antigua civilization, con derechos
lnmanentes a que su personahdad juridica
de pueblo no fuese sofocada por ell hecho de
possession, en- nombre de la fuerza, padeci0
pauece un QeSpOUlSInO franco en- ell regimen
de gobierno que lie fue impuesto. Sc lie grava
con exacciones, con tributos = Puerto. Rico
no Intervene nj en- esas exacciones ni1 zen esos
tributos. Su pueblo es inteligente, esslaborio-
so, es active, no solo no lie son{reconocidas
esas Virtudes de su caracter sno queIseile des-
dora calificandole de inepto arafgobemarse
por 81 mismo " como 81 ESQ no ofuera1bastante;
Sc lie equipara punto menos que con la descen-
dencia errabunda de Israel, cuyos. .ejemplares
pueden aspirar la ciudadanfa Aamericana,
que al puertorriquefo lie mega. Como,
pues, no iban q recelar, en- Saint Thomas, de
las pretensones del gobierno de los Estados
Unidos? Como no iban rechazarlas?
FL vielo monarca danes fue justo con sus
vasallos de Ultramar.
Estos no han envidiado la suerte de los puer-
torrique1os. Pero de SECURE que, viendoles
debatirse con entereza, reclamando sus dere-
chos sin la agitacidn desatentada que haria,
acaso, simpatica para egoistas intereses de
ageno lnaje q la vollntad puertorriquefa
la accion de La fuerza, mas con altivez dentro
de sus aspiraciones; los ijos de, Saint Tho
mas, en- Ia genunidad de su patriotismo, ten
dram para los hijos de Puerto Rico sus n sim
patfas, las cuales satsfacenh los puertorri-
que1os que no han dejado nj dejaran de amar
La isla zen donde nacieron.\
No Yano fue para ell pueblo de Saint
Thomas, Puerto Rico, libro alberto para su
reflexiva acttud Y para su conciencia patrio-
tica.

ROUNDUP.

At base ball meeting held in the
European pool hall last Saturday
evening the matter of organizing a
new base ball team was discussed and
definite action taken in that direction.
G. R. Cheney was unanimously elect
ed manager Of the new aggregation,
and he in turn appointed Happy"
Kibble Temporary captain.
At the first meeting of the city
council held last night two applica-
tions for franchises were received
which are of great moment to the
people of Roundup. Both franchises
are being asked for BY James U.
Gridley of the Roundup Coal Mining
Co., the one being for an electric
light plant and the other for water
system. No action was taken on the
applications at the meeting but it is
understood that the meter will be
taken up at the regular session of the
council to be held Monday evening.
A special election will have to be
called to decide the question of grant
Fergus County Democrat., 1909-05-25

ing the franchises, which will un-
doubtedly be done at the coming
meeting.
Roundup is now a full hedged CITY
in every respect, the first city coun-
ell having organized last night.
Mayor Newton and the alderman
have all qualified and filed their oaths
Of office with the county clerk, and
they are now duly authorized to
transact the business Of the munich
pality. The meeting last evening
was held in the office of William ].
Jameson, who has been appointed
city clerk by Mayor Newton. No
other appointments have been made
with the exception Of j. M. Pyles as
city marshal.
The ]. P. Naderman family, one of
the pioneer families of the Musse1-
shell valley, last week departed for
their new home in Salem, Oregon,
where they will reside in the future.
With their departure the Valley
loses one of its most prominent and
highly respected families, and their
removal is cause for general regret.

Famous Old Producer Will Be Work.
ed BY Well Known Gilt Edge
Operators.
FIX UP old THE MILL
Ancient Plant to Be Rehabilitated
and Mine Workings Retimbered
Throughout.

Through the agency of the Hilger
Loan and Realty Company, the Con-
rad Stanford company and A. NJ
Hotter, of Heelna, last week leased
to Woodson Bager, Earl Cooper, Tom
Caldwell and Bob Turnbull, of Gilt
Edge, the famous Maginnis mine and
mill at Maiden. The Gilt Edge men
are to take charge July 1st and will
commence at once on the work of re-
habilitating the old mill and putting
the mine in shape for working.
It is the intention to fix the mill up
so that one hundred tons of ore can
be handled daily.
Millions have been taken out OF
the Maginnis mine and we'll informed
mining men believe that there is yet
a large quantity of good ore in the
property. The four men who will
have charge of it now operate the
Gold Reef mine and mill under lease
from John A. Drake and have made
a wonderful showing on a property
which was considered worked out
As result Of their management and
intelligent work, the Gold Reef is
said to show up better right now than
at any other time since it was pur-
chased by the Chicago capitalist.
Another Big Cleanup.
Pete Rosso, of the Cumberland
Mining company, returned Saturday
evening from Anaconda where he had

from the Maiden property treated at
the Washoe smelter. The 2o tons

WILL GIVE CONCERT.
Friends of Miss Ruth Waite Arrang.
ing Benefit for Her,

A number of the friends of Miss
Ruth Waite are arranging for con-
cert to be given for her at the opera
house some time' next month. Miss
Waite has entered the Anaconda
Standards voting contest, the first
prize for which in this district is a
fine piano. Of course all of Miss
Waite's friends want to see her win,
and the idea Of giving this concert
originated with them. The entertain
ment will give all who are interested
an opportunity to show their good
will and it is certain to be success
in every way. Mr.. T. P. Haller has
volunteered to act as musical di-
rector and about the most attractive
program ever presented in Lewistown
will be carried out. Miss Waite, who
is easily the most popular singer in
this part of the state, has not been
heard in public in long time, and
her appearance will be welcomed.
She will be assisted by the best talent
in the city and ought to be greeted
by packed house. The exact date
for the concert will be announced
later.
Fergus County Democrat., 1909-05-25

the city about 9 O'Clock and the
audience was entertained with selec-
tions by the Lewistown band and the
Brewer orchestra until about o:30
o'clock when a message was received
stating that the train would not be
in until II o'clock or later.
The members of he class, Principal
P M. Silloway and several members
of the board Of trustees then marched
on the stage and the regular program
was begun.
President Moulton Good Substitute.
President Moulton of the board
took the place Of Doctor Duniway
and certainly was good substitute
considering the fact that he had made
absolutely no prparations for the. oc-
casion. He delivered a brief but in
spring address to the five graduates
in presenting to them their diplomas.
The progras as rendered, was as
follows:
Overture, Poet and Peasant. -.
................ Cecilian Ochestra
Invocation. -. Rev. J. F. Dimmick
Piano Solo, Chopin's Mazurka in c
Sharp Minor -. Mrs. F. J. Hazen
Vocal Solo, "The Rosary" ........

............. Miss Grace Brewer
Overture, Angel Serenade. .......
Cecilian Orchestra
Presentation of Diplomas. .......
$500. President Board of Trustees

............ Cecilian Orchestra
Senior Class Play.
The senior class play, "Above the
Clouds" was given in Culver's hall
Wednesday evening before large
audience. The play was put on in
fine style, all Of the young actors
acquitting themselves most creditably.
Those who participated were:
Frank Wright, Beth Peck, Mar
garet Woods, Marie Remington, Ella
French, John Grove, Harvey Rowley,
Duane Aldrich, Harold White, Leo
WINS and James Cannon.
Music was furnished by the Cecilian
orchestra.
The Junior Prom.
Th junior prom was held at the
opera house Thursday night and was
great occasion for the students and
a large number of guests. The hall
was beautifully decorated, several of
the students working all day in fixing
up the hall.

netted the very substantial sum Of
$,263.60 or about $253 per ton.
This same company sent shipment
to the Ponderay smelter last Feb
ruary which netted over seven thou
sand dollars. 1t is said that a half
dozen or more carloads of the same
size and richness could be taken out
by two or three miners in thirty days.
A. S. Wright now has the property
under bond for large sum and is
preparations for the erection of
a mill this summer. Pete Rosso and
Frank Stephens are the principal
stockholders in the Cumberland

Phil A. Chase each own a substan-
tial block of the stock.

Five Bright Students Graduated From
the Fergus County Free High
School.
ONE DISAPPOINTMENT
Lat Train Prevents Arrival On Time
of Doctor Duniway, Orator OF
the Evening.

Margaret E. Woods. ...---
Beth V. Peck.
Ella NJ. French.
Marie A. Remington.
Frank A. Wright.
One unfortunate and unavoidable
incident marred the otherwise In
teresting exercises of commencement
OF the Fergus County Free High
School which were held Friday even
ing in Culver's hall.
The train which brought to the city
Doctor c. A. Duniway, president of
the Montana State University, who
was to deliver the address to the
graduates, was several hours late and
the large crowd was deprived Of the
pleasure OF hearing Montana's most
distinguished school man. Doctor
Duniway was also greatly disappoint-
ed as he was desirous of meeting the
people Of Lewistown.
Interesting Program.
With this exception, the program
was carried out as scheduled and was
greatly enjoyed by the audience which
filled the large hall. The dcorations
were the most elaborate and beau
tiful ever seen in the city. The class
colors, white and yellow, were much
in evidence and the stage in particu
lar presented a beautiful spectacle
with its mass of evergreens, flowers
and colored lighting effect.
