Barry Stephens Convicted

The most severe arraignment a de-
fendant has received from the court
since Judge Rasch succeeded Judge
Hunt, says the Montana Daily Rec
ord. was administered Tuesday
morning to Barry Stephens convicted
Monday evening of having sold whis-
key to an Indian at Cut Bank.
stephens assentenced to serve four
months in the county Jail and pay a.
fine of $3.50.
Judge Rasch declared that it was
apparent that any man who went to
such town as Cut Bank, bordering
on an Indian reservation, and opened
saloon, did so with the deliberate i'll
tention of violating the laws of the
country relating to whisky peddling.
Continuing Judge Rasch declared
that hereafter when similar cases
come before him, he will not be len.
lent, but will impose penitentiary
sentences.

From nine loads Of oats X. V.

an average Of q trille over Al bushels
to the load, which is d remarkably
good yield for this year. Two loads
of oats OF Wilfrid Primeau's went
still better, yielding one hundred

pound sacks-333 40 pounds Or 5oS
bushel, an average of 25 bushel to the
load.
This grain was raised on land with

In the evening the serving of re-
freshments was continued and there

his building, the Malta Cornet Band
and Orchestra for their excellent
music, Messrs. Tucker, Cooper, Hew-

as well as the young ladies who con-
trlbuted music, Miss Silverman, who
furnished entertainment by fortune
telling, and all the people of Malta

mage.

Unusual Attractions for State Fair

Two features for the Eighth Mon
tana State Fair have been announced
and beyond peradyenture they viii
prove the most spectacular and in-
teresting ever seen there. These are
none other than daily exhibitions by
Curtiss, the well known aviator, and
cowboy relay race.
tary Martin Martin has
closed the contract with Mr.. Curtiss.
the well known New York man,
whose sensational flights in and
around the metropolis of the United
States and abroad, have made him
one of the foremost figures in the
aerial world.
The conditions are that he must
rise to height of at least fifty feet
and remain in the air fully ten min
utes. OF course, this does not mean
that he will not give even greater
demonstrations of his ability to
manipulate his aircraft by flying
miles and miles or rising perhaps to
a height of even a mile, but the min
imum has been fixed.
That this feature of the fair will
prove one of the greatest attractions
known to northwestern fair history
can not be gainsaid. Mr.. Curtiss
has an an international reputation.
and will personally manipulate his
aeroplane. Helena and Spokane viii
be the only western cities visited by
Curtiss, his contract providing for
an exclusive two weeks engagement
one in-each city.
Perforce, the cowboys relay race
will likewise be a thrilling affair. AL
ready number of entries have been
received, and it is expected that still
more will come. Every patent de
vice for saddling has been barred
the conditions providing for the es-.
elusive use of the old fashioned cinch
straps.
The contestants are to ride three
miles daily, thus involving three
changes. The race will continue
throughout the entire week.

LOWER MILK RIVER IRRIGATION
PROJECT WILL RECEIVE FUNDS
HOPE IS HELD OUT FOR COMPLETION OF BIG DITCH BY RE.
CENT VISIT OF ARMY ENGINEERS TO VALLEY

The special train furnished by
Louis W. Hill for the Board of Engi-
neers reached Malta at 1:50 last
Thursday and the party arrived
about 4:30, having stopped at Mud
Lake where Malta citizens met them
with autos and after taking them
about the lake brought the party to
this city.
The Board staid in their special
train over night in Malta and held an
informal reception for the Maltaltes
during the evening. Impromptu
speeches were made by a number OF
the gentlemen present with the irri-
CATION project as the principal theme.
Early Friday morning the special
train pulled out for Dodson and the
party left soon atterward in autos on
their inspection trip of the project
and the Dodson dam.
The Engineers have come and gone
and it is confidently believed that
their visit to this valley will result
in much good. They were delighted
with the beauty Of the valley though
we have had no water to make it
more beautiful: they heard the hard
and expensive experiences of some Of
the ranchers who had tried to pro-
duce abundant crops without water;
and they secured valuable data to
use in their report to president Taft.
The are many reasons why the
Lower Milk River Irrigation Project
should receive more consideration
from President Taft, than some of the
other projects inspected, when the
reports OF the engineers are made.
The number of years that have
passed since work on the project was
started, the large number of settlers
within it's boundaries, and the extern
siye area under cultivation. Also
the fact that actual construction work
on the ditch has been done by the
settlers.
1t will take the Board of Army En-
gineers number of weeks longer to
complete the tour of inspection of
the different projects and consider
able time will be spent in preparing
their report SO that it is hardly prob
able our project will receive any of
the 500 200, 900 fund for use this fall.
However, we may receive portion
of the SIS, ,OOO, 900 which if already in
the treasury. Somewhere along the
itinerary of the party Senator Dixon
is said to have intimated that our
project would receive 81 .0OO, 900 of the
$50 ,OOO, 900 fund.
The special train was one of the
finest ever in this city being an EN-
tirely new outfit of cars. 1t consist
ed of baggage car, diner, the pal
ace sleeping car, Osakis, and a COM
partment observation car besides the
private car of President Louis Hill.
The train was in charge of Conduct
or H. r. Spooner of Havre, one of
the oldest conductors Oh this divis-
ion and engineer Tom Pierce was at
the throttle. Travelling engineer j.
e. Benson and Supt. I. +. Lowry
were also with the train. The train
was electric lighted throughout.
President Hills auto was unloaded
at Malta and he nsed it in making
the trip to DOdSOn.

trict, presented pitiable spectacle.
His rough shirt was stiff with blood,
his beard was matted with the flow
from wounds on his head and face
and from streams that had flowed
from his nose and ears in the fearful
effort which he put forth to bring out
of the fire his injured brother, whose
charred body he was at last forced to
leave in the blazing forest above
Mullan, where he and his brother were
prospecting in the hills. The two
started out and the brother fell,
breaking his leg. Then began the
saving of his injured brother.
Through smoke and fire he stumbled
on, but the fire gained on him and at
length overcame him. Finally the
injured brother became unconscious.
George was hardly able to stagger,
and finally, reluctantantly and tear
fully, he turned his back on his bro
ther and fled. He was hardly able to
speak, so swollen was his tongue. A
purse was made up for him and he
was sent east where he has friends. :"
The latest and most serious news
from the fire stricken districts comes
from Thomson Falls. 1t is feared
that six hundred fire fighters, who
left that town four days ago, are all
lost.
Messages from Wardner, Idaho,
state that fires are raging within a
mile and a half of the town and that it
is in great danger. Six hundred men
have been sent out from the mines to
fight the flames. The women and
children are prepared to leave the
city.
Tuesday, Governor Norris ordered
out four companies of state militia
to fight the fires, so that with the
company already working at Libby,
there are five companies of the state
guard at work.
