SAYS LID IS
ON TO STAY
Governor Norris Lays Down the Law
With Reference to Gambling in
the State of Montana.
GAMBLING MUST STOP
County Officers Ordered to Strictly
Enforce Anti-Gambling Measure
Letter Sent Out.

Helena, July 12.-"The lid is on
and on to stay. Gambling, prize
fighting and violations OF the wine
room law will not be tolerated" Gov
Edwin L. Norris and Attorney Cen
eral Albert J. Galen.
This statement followed the ad-
dressing Of a letter to county Of
hclals, and was provoked by reports
received that layout gambling was
in progress in Meadervile, Walker
vile and on the flats near Butte. Fri
day, July 8, Attorney General Galen
notified County Attorney Walker. of
Butte, of the reports being received.
The following day Governor Norris
directed the attorney general to ad-
wise county officials that the law
must be enforced.
County attorneys and sheriffs of
Montana are threatened with sum-
mary removal from office by Gov
ernor Edwin L. Norris, if they fail to
rigidly enforce the laws against
gambling, slot machines, wine rooms,
and prize fights. Not alone must the
laws be enforced, but these officers
must make speedy and careful investi-
cations to learn if they are being
violated
This is the first time in the history
of the state that a governor has taken
such an outright and determined
stand against evils which have been
reported to exist. And the position
he takes is heartily endorsed by
Attorney General Albert J. Galen.
Governor Norris wrote a letter to
Attorney General Galen last Saturday
directing him to call the attention Of
officials to the need of enforcing the
laws, and advising him that in the
event the officials are derelict to
"please invoke the remedy provided in
such cases. this being the summary
removal statute.

who worked over her for about twelve
hours, death finally coming to her re-
lief.
The trouble which has been exist
ing in municipal affairs between
Mayor Lehman and Chief Of Police
Ray was yesterday amicably settled,
and the tumultous waters surround
ing the city government have become
pacified. In conference held yester-
day afternoon the city council came
to the conclusion that the matter had
been viewed more or less through
compound microscope, making a
mountain OF mole hill, and the only
thing to be done was to have it set
tied as quickly as possible, to pre-
serve the fair name OF Roundup in
the eyes Of the commonwealth. An
agreement was reached whereby
Mayor Lohman withdrew all charges
against Chief OF Police Ray and re-
instated him, this action on his part
being contingent on the adoption by
the city council Of resolution
which, in a measure, vindicates the
mayor and prevents future recur-
rences OF squabbles OF similar ma
ture.
JOS. L. Asbridge, member of the
executive committee Of the County
Division Club, was in the city several
days this week from his ranch on
Willow Greek, and while here gave
out some statements in regard to the
feeling Of the people residing in the
northern part OF the proposed new
county of Musselshell Mr.. Asbridge
took it upon himself to interview the
people residing in the sx-mile strip
between the third standard parallel
and the township line south OF that,
which territory is being disputed for
by Lewistown and the supporters OF
the segregation movement. Out OF
fifty seven voters and taxpayers seen,
forty expressed a desire a belong to
the new county in preference to Fer
| gus, stating that it was more con-
venient in every respect, and signed
petition to that effect. OF the 9TH
er seventeen number in the extreme
Northwestern part of the strip in dis
pute insisted on remaining in Fergus
county, while the Others did not care
to express an opinion, saying that it
was immaterial to them how the
county was divided Just what ef-
feet this canvas will have on the Lew
istown interests is, Of course, un-
known, but it certainly seems no,
more than fair that the wishes OF the
people living in the disputed territory
should receive due consideration. Ir
making the canvas, Mr. Asbridge had
no more further object in view than
simply to ascertain the views Of the
people concerned.
Fergus County Democrat., 1910-07-19

Accordingly, a circular letter ad-
dressed to county attorneys and
sheriffs, was prepared by Attorney
General Galen 1t reads:
Il am just in receipt OF the COM
munication herein set forth from his
excellency, Edwin L. Norris, gov
ernor, which communication is self
explanatory No specific case Of vio-
lation OF the law is called to my at
tention.
However, it seems apparent that
the governor must have obtained
some information with respect to
laNity i'll enforcement Of the law on
the part OF some officials, otherwise
he would not have written me such a
letter
by section 5, Of article VII, OF the
state constitution. the supreme power
OF the state is vested in the governor,
who shall see that all laws are faith
fully executed And | believe it wise
on the part OF the chief executive Of
this state to occasionally; call upon Of
ficers charged with the enforcement
Of state laws III order to give them
strength, encouragement and renewed
energy.
Text of Letter.
The letter OF the governor is as
follows:
July 9, lolO.-Hon. Albert ]. len,
July 9. lol0-Hon Albert J.
Galen, attorney general, Helena, Mon
tana:
Dear Sir-Please call the atten-
ton of all county attorneys. sheriffs
and other peace officers to the neces-
sity for speedy and careful investiga-
ton into all violations OF the law.
and the advisability OF prompt and
vigorous prosecution of persons
charged with public offenses.
IF reports published in news
papers and statements publicly made
are correct, greater vigilance on the
part OF prosecuting and peace Of
icers will result in the prevention OF
violations OF the laws relating to
gambling slot machines. wine rooms
and prize fights, or in the conviction
of offenders against these laws in
several places in the state
While it is not presumde that
any officer would neglect to perform
his duty as directed by you, il such a
contingency should arise. please in
yoke the remedy provided in such
cases
May Mean Removal.
Evidently the remedy referred to
by the governor in order that laws
may be properly enforced by officers
charged with that duty is the slim
mary removal statute | should re-
gret very much in any case TO have
to invoke this remedy, but believe
from my experience had with present
county attorneys and sheriffs that it
is only necessary to call attention to
the necessity for greater vigilance on
their part. Yours verv truly.

Brick Made by Raymond Company at
Dayton, Ohio, Received by the
Commercial Club.
MONEY IS ALL READY
Local Capital Is Pledged to Erect
Modern Plant Now That All
Tests Have Been Completed.

The Lewsstown Commercial Club
has received from the c. w. Ray
msnd company, Of Dayton, Ohio, four
brick which were recently made at
their factory in Dayton from shale
sent down from this city The brick
are a success in every particular and
the letter which accompanied them
states that the exhaustive tests made
by the experts at the factory show
that there is not a better brick max
ing shale be found in the United
States than that sent from Lewis
town.
Good for All Purposes.
Tests were made not only in the
manufacture OF hollow and solid
building brick but also in vitrihed
building brick, paving brick and tiling.
All were equally satisfactory.
There is practicall,, an inexhaustible
quantity Of this same shale within a
stones throw OF the city limits of
Lewistown Local men have said
that they will provide the money
necessary for the erection OF modern
plant, provided the tests were all
right, so it now seems that a new
industry and a very important one for
IcwistoNn is an assured fact.
Means Good Payroll.
A brick factory will mean steady
payroll for Lewistown 1t is esti-
mated that from fifty to seventy-fve
men will be employed from the start
and this number will be increased as
the market for the output is opened
mp With a superior article of
brick manufactured under exceptional
ly favorable conditions so far as
economy of production is concerned,
there is no reason why Lewistown
cannot soon be supplying the entire
state with this very necessary build
ing commodity.

Testimony Tending to Show Stephen
E. Suffers Connection With the
Murder of Burke.
SOME PECULIAR FACTS
State Rests and the Defense Will
Have Its Inning This Afternoon
"A Strong Chain.

The preliminary hearing in the case
OF Stephen T.. Suiter, OF Maiden,
charged with the murder OF Thomas
Burke at that place on June %, was
begun before Justice Edward Brassey
yesterday afternoon. Suiter, who was
represented BY Attorney ] A. Cole
man, appeared to take little interest
in the proceeding but smiled broadly
at some witticisms during the exam
ination Of a witness. County At
torney ]. c. Huntoon, who appeared
for the state, contented himself with
making out a prima facie case. The
evidence 50 far Is all circumstantial,
but it all points strongly to Suiter,
and III the absence of any cxplana-
ton OF these circumstances clearly
justfcs such action as has been so
lar taken by the officers
The Chain Of Evidence.
As stated Mr. Huntoon confined
his efforts to developing a prima facie
case Beginning with the motive, it
was shown that bad feeling existed
between Burke and Suiter and the
shcrff's records established the fact
that Suitcr caused Burke's arrest for
making threats last fall Burke could
have furnished bonds, but stubbornly
refused to do so and remained in the
county jail for several weeks. Three
witnesses testified that at about D.
m, on the afternoon Of June %, they
heard the report Of shot gun, in the
general direction Of the open cut
where Burke was working A. M.
4 White, who owns a ranch near Suit
4 cr's place, few miles from Maiden,
testified that about 4 p. m, on June

that the man was Suiter, but he was
not certain. having paid little atten-
