party. At ranch houses along the line
they secured milk and eggs and at
each of the small towns. Fresh meat,
fine western T-bone steaks, fresh fish
and game made the menu of the party
one of the chief items of interest, aside
from the constantly changing scenery.
In small settlements the car was re-
garded with keen curiosity by the ma
tives on account of the long distance
Travelled and the fact that the party
was entirely Independent of hotels and
ranch houses. But few nights were
spent indoors. A rainproof tent and
folding camp outfit gave the party
every convenience necessary to add to
their comfort while sleeping in the
open.
MANY CURIOS
But the trip was not without veXa-
tions. The car broke down but once
and the damage was not of a serious
character. When the party reached
the Buck valley Indian reservation a
heavy downpour put a stop to the
trip and for six days the party re
mained at the agency and took ad-
vantage of the splendid opportunity
to collect a large number of indian
curios and articles of historic interest
Before reaching the agency the car
stuck in the mud fiat and so receptive
to the hub IT was necessary to lay
a heavy plank track to support the
weight of the machine after it had
been raised by it's own power from the
thick gumbo
The party proceeded north to Shelby
Junction, through the Sweet Grass
range country and across the interna-
tional line to Calgary. Climate in
fifty-seven varieties, from the frigld
heights of snow clad mountains to the
b1ossoning valleys gave further va
rietv to the trip. Coming over the con-
tinental divide. near Salmon city, the
machine plugged for three hours up a
mountain road in two feet of snow.
A cutting wind was blowing and no
day of winter could have been colder
and more disagreeable than the June
snow storm on the top of the ma
tion's great watershed. 1t was in
Idaho that the best hunting was
found. Frequently while passing along
the party saw standing upon some
lofty crag. gazing curiously at the ma
chine moving with invisible power, q
mountain goat and snake, the timid
deer was startled to its retreat and
the codntry was alive with teathered
game

Forsaking the main Travelled roads,
the Studebaker was ptoted through
miles of rank growth of sage. Not
infreouentIv the car dropped into ma
tural holes, unseen until encountered.
but each time it was but the work of
a few minutes to eXtriCate the ma
chine and again start on its way to the
far northern city.

That Marion county Republicans re-
sent the meddling into their affairs Of
Captain Dawson, 81 the penitentiaryi
and any dietation as to, who shall con.
stitute the Republican Committee Of
this county, IS one thing. Another
thing is that It has now, leaked out
through the persons acting with the
captain why he was guilty Of such I'M
pudence. The story is that Scott has
promised to give the captain a place
as one Of Marshal Doyle's assistants.
1t was found that the assistants could
not be removed. Senator Scott to
hold the captains support made an
agreement to have another marshal
ship created for the captain. This is
the deal that caused the captains
presence with "Lonnie' under guard.
