A GLORIOUS T|n[ ON TH[ FOURTH
Roundup to Be the Nations Center
of Patriotism and Gaiety on
July Fourth.

By the program given below it
may be seen that Roundup will not
take a back seat when it comes to
properly making the American eagle
scream on the nations birthday.
The governing committee in charge
Of the celebration has been doing
some good work the past week and
everything is now practically in
readiness for the big day next Mon
day. Enough money has been
donated to pay for all of the at
fractions and provide for the prizes
being offered for the various sports
and races. Nothing will be left un-
done to show our guests on the
glorious Fourth of July one of the
most magnificent ontbursts Of
patriotism ever witnessed anywhere

MINE RESCUE
Station and Investigation Building
May Be Secured for Roundup.
Bill Passes.

The fact that the bill providing
for the establishment of mine re-
scue and investigation station in
Montana has passed Congress, has
set number OF Roundup people to
thinking as to whether it wouldn't t
be possible to have the station To-
Gated at Roundup. With the de-
velopment of the Bull mountain
coal field, which is considered the
most extensive in the western part
Of the United States, it does not APP
pear at all out of reaaon to have
this station located here. Besides
Roundup is within convenient reach
OF the Carbon county fields to the
south Of us and the Great Falls coal
district to the north.
Roundup people should get to-
gether and work for the station, and
it is possible that by donating ground
for site the government could be
induced to locate it here.
1t will cost $2.264 to establish
and equip the mine rescue and in :
vestigation station in Montana, as
provided in the sundry civil bill,
passed on motion Of Representative
Pray. 1t will also cost $500 to
maintain the station yearly. These
estimates have been prepared by the
geological survey, under whose
jurisdiction they would fall.
The housing for the station in
Montana would be brick building
36x3S feet, two stories high, with a
one-story training room 20x3O feet,
at cost Of $4 900. The following
equipment would be needed.
Six rescue apparatus complete,
$3.50; telephone helmet, 5000; oxy-
gen pump. $3.50; 200 potash regen-
orators, $115; three automatic re.
viving cabinets, 115; three portable

CROPS LOON GOOD N SPITE Of H[AT
Altho There Has Been a Lack Of Rain
During June Crops in Valley
Look Promising.

The month Of June which almost
invariably means an abundance of
moisture for Montana, has been one
Of the dryest and hottest Junes on
record, and altho much alarm was
felt over crop conditions over the
entire state, favorable reports have
been coming in and the harm done
has been inconsiderable when COM
pared to conditions in states to the
east of us. For almost week up
to Tuesday the mercury had been
lowering around the 100 mark, and
it was feared that all dry land crops
would be irreparably damaged.
On Tuesday, however, the heat
wave was broken and there was Il
light rainfall during the afternoon
and evening. On Wednesday the
thermometer had come down con-
siderably and there was another re-
freshing rain which was quite gene
raj in this section. Yesterday
Jupiter Pluvius" again turned the
throttle over to WET" with the re-
suit that there was a very copious
rainfall, nearly taking the proper
tions of a cloudburst in the Flat
willow country.
Reports from points along the
Musselshell on crop conditions are
very favorable, winter wheat in the
vicinity Of Musselshell, Lavina,
Ryegate and other points practically
being far enough advanced to be
out Of danger.
Wednesday afternoon the writer
made a trip out north of Roundup
toward Flatwillow and he was sur
prised beyond measure to find crops
in the excellent condition they are.
Among the places we visited were
those Of VIM. Jensen, Byron Gates,
Mrs. Smith, Alvin p. Harris,
Henry Fairbrother, William Fisher
and Martin Olden. All garden
truck. potatoes. oats. winter wheat
and corn were looking fine. In
some instances where spring crops
had been put in late, the outlook
was not SO promising Especially
promising were the fields Of winter
wheat and oats on the farms of
Henry Fairbrothcr and William
Fisher. 1t is estimated that winter
wheat in this section will average

Old timers are almost unanimous
in their opinion that if dry farming
proves successful this year, which
they consider an unusually dry year
there must be some merit in this
method of raising crops and in the
soil of the Montana benches.

A BIG ELK
Head Of Largest Elk Ever Shot in
Montana Brought in From
FlatWillow.

What is claimed to be the head
OF the largest elk ever shot in the
state Of Montana was brought in
from the Sherman ranch on Flat
willow Wednesday. The elk was
shot by ST Sherman some years ago
on his ranch on Flatwillow where
they once roamed in large numbers.
This member was one of the last of
the tribe in this section of the state,
and in its day had been the quarry
OF many hopeful nimrod. Mr..
Sherman has loaned the head to
Thos. Graham ofthis place in whose
place Of business it is now on dis
play. Tommy is peculiarly attach
ed to this trophy OF the hunt for the
reason that in his boyhood days he
spent many an hour in an ineffec-
tual attempt to lassoo this same
antlered monarch. At the present
Tommy is Of the opinion that may
be it is just as well that he failed to
rope the big animal, as there un-
doubtedly would have been some
thing doing if he had connected.
The head is attracting great
deal OF attention, and we'll it may
for it certainly is whopper. The
horns are each 56 inches long from
base to tip, and the points are 36
inches apart. The widest spread is
AZ ! inches. Each horn has seven
prongs.

COLUMBUS BUNCOED OUT
OF SIS BY BOGUS MASON

r. A. Lindsay, an Englishman,
pleaded guilty before Judge Davis yes
terday to the charge of embezzling SIS
from ]. Columbus in the belief that he
was getting him into a local lodge of
Masons. He asked for probation, which
was refused, and he was given one year
in Folsom.
Columbus claimed that Lindsay came
to him August 26 of last year and told
him he could make good Mason out
of him, representing that he was a
member of the order in good standing.
Being anxious to join the order, Colum-
bus was easily led to believe his name
was being presented to a lodge for
membership. Lindsay told him the ad-
mission fee would be $75, and this Co
lumbus turned over to him.
Not hearing anything about his ap-
plication for some months, he went to
the lodge and found out from the sec
retary that his name had not been pre-
sented and that Lindsay was unknown.
He thereupon swore out a charge of
embezzlement, to which Lindsay pro-
tested, but later admitted.

ALL CITY LAWS VOID,
HOLD CHINK'S LAWYERS
Judqe Willis Refuses to Take This
View Because of the
Wide Results

Not desiring to take the responsibility
Greater Los Angeles, as is claimed by
Attorneys George L. McKeeby and Paul
w. Schenck, in their application for a
writ of habeas corpus for the release of
Wong Wing held for violating the lot
terry ordinance, Judge Willis of the
criminal court yesterday denied the ap-
plication.
He thereby saved the jobs of city Of
ficials, contracts with the city, and
everything in connection with the gov
ernment of Los Angeles, for the time
being. McKeeby and Schenck in their
arguments for the release of Wong
Wing had declared that as Los Angeles
was a new corporation since the an
nexation of Hollywood, Wilmington and
San Pedro, all ordinances passed be-
fore the annexation election are void
under the laws governing municipal
tiles.
Not content with stating this cruel
charge in connection with an attempt
to release the Chinaman, the attorneys
allege that the city officials now In
power are not really city officials. but
that they are mere interlopers who are
squatting on positions which rightfully
WIDE SCOPE
Under their arguments all criminals
and others who have violated the city
ordinances-passed before the anneXa-
ton of the towns Northumberland are
serving time, are being held in jail
wrongfully and should be freed. Even
the recent garbage ordinance would
have long since been relegated to the
dump" under their arguments.
The peculiar part of the proceedings
is that their arguments as presented
sound perfectly valid, and it is only
their gigantic scope in connection with
the release of Wong Wing which
sounds preposterous. ridiculous, impos-
sible and impracticable.
The attorneys are willing to admit
that the charter of Los Angeles stands
But that is all they will admit. In re-
gard to everything else in this munich
pality their arguments mean that the
condition Of the law in Los Angeles is
just the same as though the whole city
out to its limits, had slid off the tail
of Halleys comet and dropped "ker-
shunk' at point between the Pacific
ocean and Old Badly.
McKeeby and Schenck would have the
city ordinances all repassed after the
city officials had been elected, and then
it would be up to the courts to give the
Chinaman a retrial to make the pro-
ceedings legal and valid.
Wong Wing was charged with selling
lottery tickets against the city ordi-
nances, and it is alleged he stuck the
winning tickets in a corner of a wall
for future reference. He was sentenced
to thirty days in jail and habeas corpus

EVANGELINE, YOU'RE BAD
SAURIAN TO BITE POOR MAN

"Tex," the trainer at the alligator
FARM was painfully hurt yesterday
morning by Evangeline, the largest al!l-
gator at the farm. Photographs of the
animal were being made. The trainer
was assisting, when the animal made
snap at him and inflicted a wound on
his leg. His physician says that no
bones are broken. However, the in
iured man is confined to his bed.
