PRISON DlscoMFoRTs.

A great deal has been done to ameli-
crate the conditions of persons in pris-
on-yet it is apparent that much work
along the same line remains to be ae-
complished.
A board has just discovered that
incarcerated persons in Illinois are I'M
kindly treated. In Pennsylvania there
has been recorded the instance of a
number Of brutal men who broke into
the jail Of little town in that state
and robbed the only prisoner in sight
OF $2s-all the money he possessed.
In the case of the Pennsylvania pris-
oner the details are particularly dis
tressing. The prisoner who had been
robbed-fnding the doors open after
the robbers had departed-went out
and reported his loss to the authorities
He then returned to his cell and went
to sleep. But there is no indication
that his losses will be made good.
In Massachusetts,, not long arc
many people complained that coun-
terfeit money was becoming common.
The authorities discovered that the
bad coins were being made in one CT
the prisons Of that state. Then the
Industrious prisoners had their dies
and other implements taken from them
and it became impossible for them
to continue turning out spurious coins.
Various bankers in the penltentiarv
at Leavenworth have recently COM
planned that they are greatly ham
pered in their liberty. They insist serv-
ing Of penitentiary sentence is not
only irksome-but in many respects
positively embarrassing.
Banker Morse at Atlanta has had
his money taken away from ffm-not
by outsiders, to be sure, but by the
prison attendants. He is now NO bet
ter off than the other prisoners.
These are conditions which demand
wide publicity. 1t is true that only q
few people go to prison nowadays-and
these, mainly the people who have not
manifested ingenuity enough to keen
out But even the small numbers that
"go over the road" should be warned
in time--so that they may realize that
prisons are wholly undesirable places.

but it comes in very appropriately
again just now If you wish to in
vest in real estate, you can find
plenty of bargains in Flathead ana
Lincoln counties, that you know
something about, and it is ten TO
one that you are throwing your
money away if you buy land in
some distant section without seeing
it, no matter what some smooth
agent may tell you. And if you
wish to invest in town lots, it is not
necessary or advisable, to go sever
al hundred miles away to do it, and
unless you go and see the lots before
you buy it is safe to say you will
get stuck, no matter how finely il
lustrated the prospectus the agent
shows you. If you buy lots in Kali
ispell, or Columbia Falls, or White
fish, or Poison, or Dayton, you know
what you get. If you buy blind in

away, you have no means of know
ing whether you are getting any
thing but experience. Don't do it

BACK FROM THE DRY-LAND.

H. C. Karow, superintendent OF
the Somers Lumber company, re-
turned from a trip through eastern
Montana and western Dakota Sun
day night. In an interview with the
Pilot Man he stated that while he
did not accomplish much in selling
lumber to those dry-land farmers
on this trip, he says that everyone
over in that part of the state is
very optimistic, and just as soon as
it can positively be forseen that the
crop is to be the success that is be-
ing looked forward to, everything
is going to move fast. He says that
there is more real cultivation of the
soil going on than has ever been
known before, and the settlers are
putting forth all the energy to take
advantage of the copious rainfall an
conserve it by proper cultivation.
Everything hinges on the outcome
OF the crops, and the conditions are
certainly hopeful. There has been
rain every place and plenty of it.,
and those settlers are just the hap
piest fellows you ever saw.

If a company could be formed
with enough finances behind it to
equip itself with modern stump pull
ing machinery, and go in for the
work of pulling stumps and clearing
land on large scale it would no
doubt be success financially, and
at the same time be a great help
In building up the community. 1t
can be easily seen that cleared
land will sell more readily than land
with the stumps on it. A. Il. Nc
Keen was one Of the first to see
the advantage of cleared land as a
selling proposition, and as a result
he has now disposed Of nearly every
lot in his addition, where otherwNe
ne probably never would have sold
a single one OF them. People are
better satisfied to pay the differ
ence in price for taking out the
otumps rather than be bothered with
them; and it seems plausible that
If the ground is ready to move onto
il would look so much more inviting
that fifty per cent more people would
purchase with view to making thei
homes here.

Man about his work he said, 81 am

missioners have made the appropri-
alton for the Saltwater road. That
road is certainly in a deplorable
state. l have been telling the peo-
pie over there what the people over
here are doing to get the road OPP
ened and they are delighted. You
would not think there We're as many
settlers over there as there are. l
was really surprised at the great
scope of beautiful country lying in
that valley that is tributary to this
city. It's going to be big asset
to have that road opened. More
than most people can imagine l
suppose. AS an agricultural coun-
try it can't be beat, and it will de-
velope faster when the people can
get in and out from there easier"
