Visited Local Schools

Mrs. Pearl T. Marshall, county
superintendent of schools, has
been engaged in an official visit
to the local schools on the reser-
walton this week. Mrs. Mar
shall arrived in Roman Monday
and spent the early part of the
week visiting the schools ia the
country west and northwest of
town and afterwards visited the
local schools.
Mrs. Marshall is one of those
who takes great pride in the con-
duct of her office and is giving
the people of Missoula county her
best endeavor as superintendent
of schools. The people of the res
ervation especially have every
reason to feel that Mrs. Mar
shall is their friend as she has
labored earnestly in their behalf
in the interest of schools in every
section.

The Roman Postoffice

Postmaster A. M. Sterling has
improved the Roman postoffice
this week and enlarged the num-
ber of call and lock boxes and
provided some other necessary
apparatus to care for the increas-
ing business transacted therein.
He has just received the new
boxes and turned the same around
in the room used for the post
office and is now able to handle
the heavy mail received daily in
much quicker time.
The business at Roman has
grown wonderfully during the
past year and today it requires
the entire time of one person,
and the greater part of the day
two are busy. The money order
business alone takes up the time
of one person when not attend
ing to the distribution of the
mail, the land payments being
practically all made through this
medium.
1t is probable that the Roman
office will be raised soon now to
a presidential Office, and this
fact demonstrates that the re-
ceipts and cancellations are suf-
ficient in volume to bring the Of
flee within the number entitled
to be so classed. Patrons will
appreciate the efforts of Post
master Sterling in providing the
new equipment and in increasing
the service in the manner he has.

Died at St: Ignatius

Charley Regis, one of the lay
brothers at St. Ignatius mission,
died last Friday morning, aged
II years. The deceased was born
in Italy and had been in this i'm
mediate vicinity for IS years.
He had long been gardener at
the Mission and it was through
his skill and incessant labor that
the grounds and gardens at the
Mission have reached the high
state of cultivation as is shown
there. He was buried Saturday
morning last at 10 O'Clock, in the
Catholic lot, Father De la Motto
preaching the funeral sermon.

Healthful
Country

1T is a remarkable fact" said
one of the Roman physicians yes
terday morning, chow healthful
this country is. Why, do you
know that there is not one half
the sickness this yesr that there
was last and with twice the pop
ulation here now as then. 1t is
not only in Roman but through
out the entire reservation coun-
try, and outside physicians re-
port the same condition all over
western Montana.
That reads good to everybody,
except the doctor, and they are
not complaining. In a new
country many people living
therein, having changed loca-
tions for their health, to know
that sickness is absolutely at a
minimum speaks we'll for the
healthful conditions surrounding
them.
DR.. Fuhrer, the U. S. R. S.
physician, says that he probably
has the best opportunity of any
Of the local physicians to properly
gauge the amount of sickness in
the country. He says that were
it not for the accidents which
have happened to men engaged
in the reclamation work during
the past three months he would
not have had any patients in all
the 300 or more now employed at
that work. Only three men have
been in the hospital during that
time from the reclamation.
If there is any place where the
record will equal the Mission val
ley for healthfulness in all the
country around US, let them
make the fact known, otherwise
this section will lay claim to the
belt and is prepared to defend
the title.

permission must first be obtained
from the department at Washing
ton. Before the red tape attach.
ed to such matters can be unrav-
eled and untangled death may
overtake the unfortunate ward of
the overzealous bureau chief and
the funds conserved" for future
generations of the fast disappear
ing race. This plan of caring for
the Indian is working so we'll that
he is often in the keeping of a
higher power than a Washington
official before assistance can be
given.
To those who have had expert
ence on other reservations it
seems just a little pin-headed to
put such policies in operation. It
appears that it would be better
for all concerned that the In
dian lands be leased and a reve-
nue. derived upon which the own
er may live without want. To
refuse to allow the Indian to eth
er lease or sell his land places
many of them in an exceedingly
difficult condition. They have not
the means to purchase horses and
machinery with which to farm.
and the department warns all
and others not to trust
them for such things; then how
are they to farm on their own
hook, even were they so inclined?
To many of them it mean hard
ships and privation, if not desti-
tuition and starvation in the face
of plenty. Rich in lands, they
must endure it all to satisfy the
whim of the official representative
of the Indian Rights Association.
TO the reservation country this
policy means a period of stagna-
tion to business and a stop to de-
velopment not in keeping with
it's great possibilities, and calls
for a vigorous protest.

Eighteen new cardinals of the
Catholic church were created in
Rome on the 9th inst. Among
the number were three from the
United States, Mgr. Farley of
New York City; Mgr. O'Connell
of Boston, and Mgr. Falconio of
Washington. 1t is said that the
pope feels the great impor-
tance of the event with respect
to the relation of the church to
America, and said in private con-
versation that the flourishing
condition of the church in the
United States would remain in
history as one of the chief char
acteristics Of his pontificate.

Its Not So Funny, Either

One day this week some of the
matrons of Roman whom it was
supposed were more wise, under-
took to initiate their younger
days and attempted to fathom
the intricacies of roller skating.
To those who were there (as
spectators) it is said to have been
very amusing. Each of them
were in that class who formerly
essayed to belong to the best Of
skaters, and their efforts to
"come back" proved their un-
doing. Some Of them, the bal
ance Of this week have been, un-
able to sit down, others to stand
up, and some when once down,
either sitting or reclining, have
much trouble in getting up, and
those who remain up cannot get
down.
All Of them affirm their deter
mination of trying it again, and
their next endeavor will probably
cause the Doctors bill to be the
big item in the household ex-
pense for the month.

Election Officials Named

The board of county commits.
sioners received the report of S.
Napton; appointed to take the
census of Roman, last Monday,
and the election officials for the
first election to determine the
question as to whether a major
ity of the voters desired to incor-
porate the town were named.
Ross Lemire, B. H. Denison and
A. Sutherland were selected to
act as judges, and A. NJ. Sterling
and Coker F. Rathbone as clerks.
d. I. Curran, chairman of the
board, called up over the phone
and stated that the board was
surprised to find as many names
on the list as $40 and congratu-
lated the people of Roman on the
remarkable growth. He also
stated that the board would have
called the election at once, but
for the fact that the great reg
ister showed only one duly regis
tered voter residing in Roman
and asked that the people here
get busy and register this week
and have the names forwarded
at once. This matter has been
to and the election proc
lamation is looked for next week.

Governors of Western
States on Boosting Tour

The western governors are on
a boosting tour throughout the
east. They met in St. Paul Sun
day last and there took passage
on a special train filled with the
products Of their states and will
go as far east as Albany and as
far south as Washington. On
their way they will be received
and entertained at several cities.
1t is expected they will be back
in the city of St. Paul by Dec. 13.
The governors included in the
party will be A. L. Eberhart of
Minnesota, John Shafroth of
Colorado, Joseph E. Carey of
Wyoming, R. L. Massey of South
Dakota, John Burke of North
Dakota, James Hawley of Idaho,
Edwin Norris of Montana, M. E.
Hay of Washington, Trasker
Oddie of Nevada and H. w.
johnson of California. The gov
ernors will be accompanied by
their secretaries and members of
their stats. The party will be
in charge of former Governor
James H. Brady of Idaho, with
whom the idea of the trip origin
ated, and Riley Atkinson, secre-
tary of the Chamber of Com
merce of Boise, Idaho.
The object of the tour. as con-
ceived by Governor Brady, is
mainly educational. Politics is
to be strictly barred and for that
reason the urgent invitation of
the woman's suffrage advocates,
asking the governors to address
suffrage meetings in various cit
les during their trip, have been
politely but firmly declined. The
governors undertake the trip not
only with a view to learning
something by observing the con-
ditions in the east, but they hope
to convey valuable lesson to
the people of the overcrowded
east, by bringing before them
convincing proofs Of the enor-
nous resources and advantages
of the west and informing them
in regard to the manifold induce
ments offered to settlers in the
western states. It is confidently
expected that this tour will be
fruitful of results by giving a
new and powerful impetus to the
westward movement of immi-
grafton and by diverting the
westward march Of settlers from
Canada to the western states of
the United States.

Permanent Exhibit

To exploit the resources anc

west Development League will
place permanent exhibit of the
products of the soil, lakes, rivers.
forests and rivers of the various
states in a great display room
and show them to thousands of
people who pass through and
visit the city of Saint Paul-the
gateway to the northwest terri
tory.
This state has been invited to
occupy several hundred square
feet of this space without cost
as the St. Paul Association of
Commerce has entered into a
contract with the league to fur
nish the display rooms in one of
the new buildings of that city
rental free, if the league will
furnish, light and maintain the
display; the offer has been ac-
cepted.
The plan is simply to show
every person who transfers in
St. Paul as we'll as those who
live there, a comprehensive ex-
hibit of the products of the
following states: Minnesota,
North Dakota, South Dakota,
Montana, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon. The exhibit will be
conducted without prejudice, the
league publishing uniform infor-
nation about each state in attrac-
tive booklets, distributing them
and securing the names of all
visitors which will be furnished
the Commercial Clubs and state
immigration officials of each
state.

Indian Department Policy
Detrimental to PROCESS

Last week the Reservatio,
Land 4 Lumber Co. decided t,
lay a pipe line from their plan
ming mill in Smead addition tt
the creek for the purpose o.
supplying their engine, which
will be used to furnish power to
drive the machinery, with water.
Preparations were being made tc
go ahead with the work when
behold, they discovered that
Uncle Sam would not allow the
laying of the pipe line along
the street leading to the creek.
All the company could under the
circumstances was to quit work.
1t is becoming quite the thing
nowadays to plan some develop
ment of the many resources of
this reservation only to run up
against a departmental order
which prevents the work being
done. One can hardly breathe
the pare air of the country with
out first obtaining a blue print
of the section of country he de-
sires to breath in and have it
O. KID. by some Indian depart
ment official at Washington be-
fore really doing so. AS to any
real work being done which
would in any manner effect the
reservation, that is out of the
question.
In this connection it has come
to light within the past week that
no more Indian land leases are to
be made. That is, no lease will
be made Of lands that belong to
any able bodied Indian, for the
reason that the department has
decreed that the Indian shall
work his land himself. Shades
of Tecumseh but that depart
ment head has a wonderful knowl-
edge of conditions as they really
are on an Indian reservation. 1t
has also been learned that no
more patents are to be issued for
the reason--it is claimed-that
the Indian sells his land as soon
as a patent has been issued. 1t
would not be surprising were the
department to refuse to issue a
homesteader a patent unless he
give a bond not to sell his land. |
There would be just about as
much justice in one order as in
the other.
Congress passed a law author
izing the Indian allottee to sell 60
acres of his 80. Some big bureau
chief at Washington issues an or
der that beats the law congress
passed seven different ways. He
says that no one will be allowed
to sell until the land is covered
with an irrigation ditch, as it will
be worth much more at that time.
That may be true and it may not.
Today men can be found who are
to gamble a little and buy
he land believing that the water
charges will not exceed $50 per
acre, and are paying-or would
oay-a price which when added
% the $50 water charge, makes
he land bring about all or a little
more than tits really worth. Sup
pose the water charge is in ex-
:esss of $50 per acre, would it
hen be reasonable to expect the
and to bring as much or more
