Kentuckians in the West.

To The News
A few lines from Oklahoma might be
interesting reading, especially coming
as 1t does from former Russell coun-
ty boy, but now Carter county Okla
homan. We have recently had an cleo
ton here and will tell you who was
elected to fill some very prominent
places in the State for our County.
Lee Cruce, was nominated on the Dem
ocratic ticket for Govorner. He lives
in Ardmore and is former Crittenden
county, KY, boy, and his nomination is
equivalent to his election.
M. F. Winfrey was nominated for
County Judge of Carter county. He is
an Adair county man, and his Office will
pay about $1,000. copper annum. Carter
county has two Representatives in the
State Legislature and both are Ken
tuckians. ] B. Champion, of Critten-
den county, KY, and your writer, who
is from Russell county, KY, William
Kirkpatrick, from Monroe county, were
elected County Commissioners, and /
could mention many other former Ken
tuckians who will fill prominent places
in this State had the disposition to in
trude upon your valuable time.
Suffice it to say that the Kentuckians
are holding their own wherever found,
and they have played very conspicu-
Gus part'in shaping the politics of this
wonderful new Safe. The above is not
written in spirit of egotisn, but
just wanted our old playmates to know
that the boys from the Cumberland,
and the Green River sections are MAX
ing good. Crop conditions here are well
nigh perfect Success to the Dear old

ELEVATOR
COMPANY FORMED
Option Also Secured on Chain of Desirable
Sites down the Yellowstone Valley.

With the organization of an eleva-
tor company, composed of prominent
business men and capitalized at $50, :
C00.00, it seems that Glendive is al
last coming into it's own as regards
facilities for the proper handling of
the immense amount of grain that
the county is now producing.
The incorporators of the new con-
cern, to be known as the Eastern
Montana Elevator company, are E. S.
Herrick, 7. F. Hagan, G. D. Hol-
lecker, G. w. Haskell and C. C.
Hurley. Other stockholders are C. A.
Thurston, Chet Murphy, Henry Dion
and Henry Mullendore. A splendid
location has been granted by the
Northern Pacific company east of the
lce-house. Not content with simply
handling what grain may come to
the company has arranged
for other locations at Intake or Head
gates, Savage, Grain and Sidney. It

will thus be seen that they have a
solid chain of locations which ought
to be ample to handle all the grain in
sight, especially upon the completion
of the new railroad and the provid-
ing of transportation facilities.
The elevator in this city will have
capacity of 80, 600 bushels. Work
upon it will be commenced just as soon
as the plans are received and approved.
It is presumed that the erection Of
suitable structures at the other points
mentioned will be but the matter of a
very short time.
Heretofore. the farmers Of this
vicinity have been hampered by lack
of storage facilities, lack of suitable
market at times and an unwillingness
to bring their grain to the city und
the prevailing conditions. It seems
that all these defects are certainly in
a good way to be remedied by the
new company

;ffect OF Forestry Rules Or
Power-Site Grabbing.

And what will be the effect Of
these National Forest rules on the
ownership and development of water
power sites in the Northwest? What
has been the effect? One fact: The
Southern Pacific has very recently
abandoned two of its most promising
power sites-one Of them located on
the Umpqua River in Southern Ore
gon, and the other on the Mckenzie,
a branch of the Willamette River.
The company seemed to have discover
ed that the power WASH t needed just
also that they must either get
to work or let loose. These two power
sites are now open, and it IS likely
that others of the power sites IN the
National Forests cf Oregon and Wash
ington will be released soon, or their
leases terminated because Of lack of
development work Such a wholesale
release seems almost inevitable, for
if ali Of the power sites that are now
being taeitly held in the Northwest
were really developed the market
would be deluged there would be
many, many times as much poWer
developed as is at present needed, or
likely will he needed in the next ten
years. r.. r. Howard in the January

HaIley,,s Comet Is Plainly Visible
In West

Despite the fact that scientists
had stated that Halley,s comet
would not be seen by the naked eye
until February, it is already visible
in the west a short distance above
the horizon each evening shortly be-
fore 6 o'clock.
Astronomers claim that during
the months Of March, April and
May the people Of the western stat
es will witness something spectacu-
lar in the doings Of the great
Wanderer, which requires about
three-quarters Of a century to
make its journey round the earth.
According to Prof. Thomas Buck
halter, the noted Oakland astrono-
mer, Halley's comet will give the
western states a close brush on May
18, and he states that the brush
may be more than spectacular, be-
cause the earth will pass the last
third of the 10000, ,000-mile tail of
the visitor and the effect ought to
be as dazzling a piece of heavenly
fireworks as this generation has eV-
er witnessed.

Mask Ball A Grand Success

Practically the best crowd Of the
season attended the masquerade ball
at the Opera House on last Thursday
evening. From the first strains Of the
new orchestra floating in upon the
dancers, until the hour of $50 a. M,
the hilarity, terpsichore and enjoy
ment were unlimited. A representa-
tive crowd was present and every
thing passed off most pleasantly. The
management representing the Brother
hood of Owls deserves special credit
for the manner in which every detail
was splendidly carried out.
The decorations, consisting of
green and gold, the lodge eolors, ev-
wreaths, etc. were as hand
some as have been seen this season.
Miss Lillian Guy, representing Alas
ka' was given the prize Of the cut
glass vase for the most elegant cos
tune. Although delayed trains pre-
vented the receiving of many of the
costumes, enough were finally secured
to represent every department Of
human nature, enmasque, as it
seemed. Certainly the Owls have set
a new record for the success Of
mask ball in Glendive.
The Grill Cafe catered to the inner
demands Of the dancers in it's usual
style.

and there is no reason for believing
that the work of Cowell and Crom-
lin will need much, if any, revision.
1T is unfortunate that the sun
will be rather low, but it will still
be Of sufficient altitude to make
good observations possible. Should
the transit take place as predicted
it will last about an hour. and
should the comet cross the suns
disc centrally it will give the visit
ing astronomers an excellent op-
portunity to study a comet under
the most favorable conditions.
Another feature of the visit lies
in the fact that the comet will be
100000 miles from the earth.
The tail will be about 20,00G,000
miles long and pointing directly
away from the sun it will doubtless

Mr.. Taft has taken the further

There may be some democratic
opposition to certain features Of the

clusion that the provision to allow

tions to make joint rates amounts
to pooling.

for Friday.
Railroad bills will be taken up by

alton bill is expected to have the
hardest Shedding of any measure in
his programme. Land bills and con-
servation measures will receive care
ful attention at the present session,
regardless of the Ballinger-Pinchot

Pinchot Is Chosen Association
Head

Washington, Jan. 23.-The election
of Clifford Pinchot to succeed DR..
Charles ". Eliot as president Of the
National Conservation association was
announced tonight. DR.. Eliot, at
whose suggestion Mr.. Pinchot was
elected, retains the honorary presi-
dency. Mr.. Pinchot will take active
charge of the association headquarters
in Washington.
Two weeks ago DR.. Eliot wrote to
the executive committee Of the asso-
citation that Mr.. Pinchot as the re-
cognized head of the conservation
movement, should take the active
leadership. He wrote Mr.. Pinchot
suggesting that he accept the pres
ideney. At DR.. Eliot,s direction
meeting Of the association was held
and Mr.. Pinchot,s election followed.
The National Conservation associa-
tion was formed last July to help,
through a large individual member
ship, to put into practical effect con-
servation principles declared by the
conference Of governors in May, 1908.
The association was formally
launched last October. Since then,
under DR.. Eliot's personal direction,
it has obtained a membership extend
ing over the country. It is announced
that an active campaign to extend the
membership into every state will be
carried on.
