BET THEY WISH THEY
WERE IN THE FLATHEAD

The following item clipped from
an Indiana paper goes to prove that
Montana and the Flathead have the
eastern states beat thousand ways
in climatic conditions:
I'VE have heard several old time
residents claim that they never saw
1t SO hot and dry at this time Of
the year before. A good many Of
the farmers are plowing up their
hay fields as the hay is all drying
up. Wheat is heading out. and is
from six to eighteen inches high. A
great many have had to replant
their corn and gardens on account ef
the cut worms and drouth. The ther-
mometers have been ranging right
around 100 In the shade"

MORE EVIDENCE
TO THE GOOD
MORE INDICATIONS THAT THE
GREAT NORTHERN WILL
PUT SHOPS HERE.

A report comes to town this morn
ing that officials of the Great Nor
ern visited Whitefish yesterday
their mission being to look up To-
cations for railroad shops at the
division town.
It will be remembered that sever
al weeks ago there was talk of re-
moving the present shops at Hill
yard to another location and White
fish was spoken of in that connec-
tion.
Further color is given to the re-
port by the sudden eagerness of a
Whitefish purchaser to close up a
hang-fire real estate deal for some
property near the town owned by
a Kalispell man.-Kalispell Journal

The regular monthly meeting CT
Gil the city council was held in
the council rooms Monday evening,
the clerk and mayor attending, and
all the councilmen present, except
Skyles and Bonner.
The treasurer's report was not on
hand, and its reading was dispensed
with. The report of the police mag
istrate showed that 1892 had been
collected during the month Of May
as police court fines. The chief Of
police showed that he had collected
IS pond fees and $136 poll tax.
The water commissioner reported
the collection of $759.9O for water
rentals.
Alderman Johns of the street and
alley committee outlined the work
that he intended to have done on
the streets this year, which would
include grading on Central avenue
and Second street.-the putting in of
several crossings and culverts, level

spots. opening up street at Lake
side and making several fills.
Mr.. Johns asked that the council
allow the street and alley committee
$4,000 to do this work with. and a
motion was duly made and passed
that the money for this purpose be
appropriated. This action Mayor
Mayfield was very firmly opposed
to. contending that the proceedings
were illegal, and that according t.
the ordinance this work could only
be carried on by establishing spe

OPTIMISTIC SORT.

Crop conditions along the main
and branch lines of the Great
Northern in Montana for the week
ending last Saturday are given
in summary prepared by J. T. Nc
Gaughey, assistant general freight
and passenger agent. This summary
is based upon telegraphic reports
received from all Great Northern sta
tions in the state. 1t follows:
ION the Rexford and Kalispell
branch to Mondak, the grain crop is
doing fine. 1t rained all last week,
turning to warmer weather the first
three days. The winter wheat is in
perfect condition. Spring wheat and
oats is all up. About 80 per cent
Of the flax sown is up and looking

be more rain.
''On the Butte to Havre branch
there have been several good rains
The weather is very warm. The
winter wheat is doing fine. Seeding

PEDDLING NOT A
PROFITABLE BUSINESS

NJ. Kim, a bright young Chinese
salesman, taking orders for a Chi
cese garment house in Spokane, was
in the city Friday drumming up a
little business, but was apprehend-
ed by the chief Of police, and
brought into police court to explain
why he had not secured a peddler's
license. AS ignorance of the law
is no excuse, he had to pay a fine
Of $25 for his experience. Accord
ing to the Eureka Journal he had
a similar experience in that place,
after he visits few more Montana
towns and gets hauled up, he will
probably apply for license before
he starts doing business.

PRIVATE FISH HATCHERY
ESTABLISHED ON FISH LAKE
STATE HAS BEEN ACQUIRED PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL
WHO HAS BEEN GRANTED ABSOLUTE CONTROL STATE.
STARTED ATCHERY HOLD RIGHT
WITH PRIVILEGE SEEMING COMMERCIAL PURPOSES
FISHERMEN OUTRAGE
ING STEPS TO THWART THE AFFAIR

that according to certain act of tn
legislature private individual may
take possession of lake in which
there never has been any fish, pro-
vided he will stock it by Matching
100000 fish eggs each year, and as
compensation for this at the end of
three years he will have the privil-
ege Of seining the lake for CONNER
cial purposes.
How Fish lake could have been
taken possession Of in this manner
is a sort of mystery, as it has been
known to the fishermen in this vicin
ity as one of the best fishing resorts
in this part Of the state, and has
always been teeming with fish.
Since it has been learned that
this lake has been taken possession
Of by private parties, the fishermen
and sportsmen of Whitefish have
entered a very strong protest. and
are probing into the affair to find
out by what rights the public waters
can thus be appropriated. To those
who are vitally interested it appears
that Mr.. Schrader has gained a con-
cession that he is not entitled to.
II there had never been any fish in
the lake there would be no fault to
find, but inasmuch as this lake has
always been one of the best stocked
lakes in this part o. the state, and
that Mr.. Schrader will have the pri-
vilege of seining the fish therefrom
for commercial purposes for his own
benefit, when legitimate fishermen
have no rights to sell fish caught
on a hook and line, they feel that
an injustice is being done the public.
This is the first intimation that
anyone here has had that private
fish hatchery had been established.
The matter is being taken up by the
Whitefish club and all the sports
men, and will be carried to the state
game warden at Helena.
Mr.. Perdue referred the matter
to Sydney M. Logan, Kalispell at
torney and enthusiastic fisherman,
who has had some insight of the
affair. His reply is as follows:
when l was in Helena in April
I took the matter up with the state
game warden, and he was very much
opposed to the proposition of any
one acquiring any rights for a
hatchery at Fish lake, but there
seemed to be some difficulty in the
way at the time on account of this
man, Schrader having acquired some
privileges from the government, the
lake being in the forest reserve. l
will take the matter up with the
forest supervisor and find out just
what rights Mr.. Schrader has ac-
quired from the government. When
in Helena, told Mr.. Aware, the
State Game Warden, that l was sat
isfied that the granting of any fish
hatchery rights at Fish lake would
| stir up a hornets nest and that /
personally was very much opposed
to anything of that kind. l will be
in Helena in a few days and will
again take the matter up with Mr..
Aware. and in the meantime, l woul
be glad to have your club
instruct me to act for them in max
ing any protest SO that l can con-
vince Mr.. Aware that there is a SEN
timent back of me-"

Fishermen going to Fish lake last
Friday were surprised to find that
his lake, three miles from the sta
ion of Stryker, which has been one
bf the most popular fishing resorts
or Whitefish fishermen, has been
aiken possession of by a private in
1ividual, who claims that he has Sc
cured absolute control of the lake,
hnd streams flowing into it, having
gained this privilege from the state.
He has taken up a homestead on
The side of the lake and built small
fish hatchery for the propagation of
trout, and is using the lake to breed
them in. Not only that, but he has
built his cabin right in the middle ct
the road leading to the lake. thus
blocking the highway. and fisher
men coming there to fish are warned
that the place is private property.
and given a hint to keep away.
J. D. Perdue, Pete Gutensohn and
Wallace Hamill left here last Friday
morning for Fish lake, which has al
ways been their favorite fishing
grounds, and were very much sur
prised on approaching the lake to
find cabin right in the middle of
the road, which blocks it completely
to all traffic, and makes it difficult
to get around. They greeted
the occupant, whose name is said
to be w. H. Schrader, a former trav-
cling salesman, formerly of Spokane,
who has filed on the homestead.
Mr.. Schrader inquired where the
visitors were from, and was informe
that they were from Whitefish, and
had come out for a days fishing. AS
the conversation led on Mr. SchradeI
Informed the party that he had re-
ceived a three years lease on the
lake from the state, and had also
received permission to run a fish
hatchery there for the propagation
of trout, which he would sein for
commercial purposes. At the upper
end of the lake small stream
flows in and the waters of this has
been diverted into the miniature
fish hatchery. At the other end of
the lake is another small stream
which Mr.. Schrader is cleaning out
So that the fish can more easily get
up to spawn.
Continuing the conversation Mr.
Schrader Informed the fishermen
that he had shore right so feet
wide all around the lake, and while
he did not say so outright, he in
ferred that anyone fishing in the
lake were trespassers. This was all
news to them, but in spite of this
gentle hint they continued to the
other end of the lake where they
cast in their lines at the mouth OF
the little creek. Mr.. Schrader fol.
lowed and began doing some work
little ways up the creek thus max.
ing the water muddy. and of course
the fish would not bite. Mr.. Per.
due naturally became a little bit in
censed at this unhospitable conduct
and went up to see him about it
and was curtly informed to the ef.
feet that he could do just as he
pleased about it and If they didn't
like it they had better go away.
We have not been able to find
the authentic authority, but those
who are supposed to know law state

OF Land Shows is Beginning
to Be Appreciated All
Over the Country.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. 2O-The
Importance and value of land shows
are Of such character that both pop
uIar sentiment and administrative
authority in all parts OF the country
freely endorse them because of their
admitted value in every phase in
which they appear before the public.
Pennsylvania by its magnificent ex-
hibit officially approved the great
,Pittsburg land show of 1910. and
the populace approved it to the ex-
tent of neary 100000 visits in the
twelve days of its existence.
The Pittsburg land show this
year, in the Duquesne Garden, will
be open frteen days during the
period between october 12 and IS,

being the belief that many more
people will desire to see it this year
than last year.
Everywhere throughout the West
and Canada preparations are max

very finest exhibits of their particu-
lar soil products to the land shows
of the East, including Pittsburg,
