Corby is travelling all over the state,
visiting all of the important towns
and as many of the smaller towns as
possible. When it is known that every
one Of the tens OF thousands OF scales,
large and small, and measuring de-
vices in public use in the state has
to be examined, the magnitude of the
task imposed by the new law may be
imagined.
Each county in the state has to pur-

INTERESTING TALK
BY VICTOR MURDOCH
NOTED KANSAS lNSURGENT CON
GRESHAM AIRS HIS VIEWS
IN THIS CITY.

Victor Murdock, the noted insurgent
a lecture in this city last Friday eve
ming. His train was an hour late, SO
it was past 8 o'clock before he ar
rived, and this induced him to cut his
talk short, but what there was Of it
was entertaining and instructive.
Congressman Murdock gave some
first-hand experiences of the difficult
ties in securing the enactment of re-
forms not desired by big business in
terests He detailed vividly his own
fight to save the government five mil
lion dollars annually which the rail
roads were being overpaid for carry
ing the mail He told how Post
master-Gener Frank Hitchcock ap'
parently stood in with the railroads
and obstructed the efforts to have a
fragrant error in determining the
weight of mail corrected. MurdOck is
a great big red-headed fellow, full OF
good humor and ever ready for fight
for what he believes to be right. He
is recognized as one of the leaders OF
the rapidly growing bunch Of in
surgents in congress.
Following the lecture, the visitor
met a number of citizens at an in
formal reception at the Judith club
rooms Saturday morning he was ac'
companied by Judge Cheadle and Tom
Stout to Philbrook, where he boarded
the train for Great Falls, his next stop
being at Cascade. He thus had an
! opportunity to see the Judith Basin
and at the end of the ride, requested
| that he be enrolled as Judith Basin
| booster. In all of his travels, he said
he has never seen country of such
marvellous agricultural possibilities
and predicted an era of development
here which has never been equallet
| in the United States.

TREASURE STATE MAKING COUN.
TRY SIT UP AND TAKE NOTICE
At BIG LAND SHOW.
HILL CUP TO JUDITH BASIN
James Todd, Who Resides Between
Stanford and Geyser, Is Awarded
One Thousand Dollar Trophy Of
fered by Railroad Magnate-lands
Many Beautiful Cups.

Montana is very much in evidence
at the monster land show which
opened last week at Madison Square
Gardens, New York City. We carried
away the bulk of the big prizes award
ed for products such as are grown
successfully in this state.
Four Fine Cups.
Four fine cups will come to the
Treasure state. James Todd, who re.
sides in the Judith Basin, between
Stanford and Geyser, was awarded the
$1,000 Hill cup for 100 pounds of the
best wheat grown in the United States
during the present year. The $1,000
Earling cup for the best oats was won
by Doctor Hartman, of Bozeman, and
the $1,500 cup put up by the Pabst
Brewing company for the best barley
shown was awarded to r. Eisinger, OF
Manhattan. Gallatin Valley, Montana.
DR.. Sudduth, Of Broadview, won the
$1,000 cup for alfalfa.
Advertising Value.
This big land show is attracting
Fergus County Democrat. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1904-1919, 1911-11-07

thousands of visitors daily. The ex-
hibitors come from all parts of the
United States and Canada and the
fact that Montana, supposedly a min
ing state, has been able to go in there
and walk away with practically every
prize in the classes in which she was
a contender, is sure to be of immense
value in advertising the agricultural
resources of this state
Going to St. Paul.
G. l.. Wentworth and Henry Surpre-
nant will soon have the Judith Basins
big exhibit ready for shipment to st.
Paul, where it will be put lin place in
readiness for the big land show there
in December. Montana has reserved
one-third of the entire space available
at the st. Paul show, and of this
amount, the Judith Basin has several
hundred square feet. This section of
the state is going to send down a won.
derfully fine exhibit and it will, no
doubt, exert a powerful influence in
an advertising way.

ITALIAN ATROCITIES.
English Officers Bring Grave Charges
Against Soldiers of Italy.

English Officers Bring Grave Charges
Against Soldiers of Italy.
Lieutenant Montague, an English Of
ticer who is serving in the Turkish
army, has written the following letter
to an English paper:
Imagine my feelings, when, on en-
tering and driving the Italians out OF
Arab houses which they had fortified
and were holding, saw the bodies of
some 12O women and children with
their hands and feet bound, mutilated,
pierced and torn. Later on at (the
name of the town was lost in trans.
mission) we found a mosque filled
with bodies of women and children,
mutilated almost beyond recognition
could not count them, but there
must have been three or four hundred.
In this European war are such
crimes to be committed? Cannot Eng
land do something to stop such
horrors? In our civilization and time
you can hardly believe it, but it is true
nevertheless. l, myself, have seen 1t,
SO ! know.
Even now we are getting news OF
further massacres of women and chill
dren who were discovered on different
farms lately occupied by Italians. The
idea of the Italians, when they slaught-
cred the innocents, obviously was one
of revenge for their heavy losses In
battle.

Civil War Fought by Boys.

We forget the Civil War was waged
for the most part by mere boys. or
the 2,27S,5SS who enlisted on the
Union side, practically all were boys.
The 11S,00O of this number who were
over 81 years of age form but a frac-
tiOnal part of the enormous total OF
at enlistment, between Is and 21
About 100000 were 1S years old. About
100000 were II, and some 100000
from ID to Is years old. Three hun
dred were 13, 225 were IL, thirty-eight
were II, and there were twenty-five
who were only 10 years of age at the
time of enlistment. The figures or
the Southern side would probably
show yet earlier average age.

State elections are being held today
massachusetts, Maryland, Kentucky
Mississippi, New Jersey, Rhode Island
and Virginia. Members are to be elect
ed to fill vacancies in congress from
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Tennessee

one each, while there are two va
cancies in Kansas to be filled. Phila

Washington, Nov. 4-There are sew

The states whose contests this yeal
are of most importance are the Massa

Massachusetts is SO great that Mr.
Foss will need to get between 10000
and 10000 republican votes In order
to win. Both sides are confident oi
success, and the betting odds are eth
er even, or slightly fayoring Mr. Foss
In New York the issue is also ma
ticnal, although not quite so promi
nent as the national issue in Massa
chusetts. In New York the big con
test is over control of the lower house
of the legislature, which is now demo
cratic by majority of ten members
most of who mare from districts Ordi
narily republican. The loss by the
democrats of the lower house would
be a setback for Tammany Hall, and
would operate to check the onrush ol
that organization from state to ma
tional prominence in democratic af
fairs. If Tammany should carry the
lower house Tuesday, it would go tt
the national convention next year with
a degree of influence it never yet ha.
had, and, in the event of democratic
success at the polls, it would be Ons
of the national factors to be reckonei
with on matters of federal patronage
