several anecdotes about the late Den

a. q law-maker, orator and lawyer.
The following story is one: One day
there entered his Office in Napa q
bright-looking, well-dressed China
man. He took . chair and pro-
seeded straight to the point: "You
Mr.. Spencer, the big lawyer
"Yes." SLOW much you charge to
defend . Chinaman?' "For what
crime?" Murder" "Five hum

he would call again. A few days
later he returned to Spencer's of

the desk before the astonished attor-
ney, and said: "All lite. ! kill i'm"
Spencer defended and acquitted him.

and has done excellent work
while Mr.. Kowitz has had con-
siderable experience in this line
of work in other states.
The coldest period during the
recent spell Of weather." as
shown by the Forest office ther-
mometer, was 38 1-2 degrees be-
low zero last Friday night. Sat-
urday night the temperature
went to 35 below, since which
time we have been treated to
much warmer weather. Still it
hasn't been thawing any at any

For the first time since the in

AND TO Be OPENED
|lo7 400 Acres Of Public Land to
> be Opened for Settle
ment Soon.

According to reports furnished
y Surveyor General Jerome G.
4ocke, there will soon be open
or entry in Montana 6,1W, 900
|cres of land. Of this amount,
1O4, 600 acres have been survey
I'd during the past year, $4,000
# which was done under the old
contract system, and 2,023, 400
Tres under the new system
Whereby the surveys are carried
IN by civil service employees,
working on a salary, and under
he direct supervision of Survey
pr General Locke and Assistant
supervisor Of Surveys J. Scott
Harrison. The remaining A,
D3, 600 acres were surveyed, or
practically surveyed in 1909 and
1910, but the working up of re-
Eurns and the final acceptance of
the work has been delayed for
various reasons, chief Of which
has been the failure of the con-
tractors to make such corrections
as was necessary before the work
could be accepted, forest fires
which drove deputys from the
field in the western part of the
State in 1910, and the inability
to secure sufficient examiners to
properly check the work after it
ihad been done, and the vast a.
mount of detail involved in the
change from the contract system
to the direct spstem.
OF the 6, l07, 600 acres on which
the field work of survey has been
completed, the field notes on

Maxwell appointed Receiver at

nothing to his discredit, but We
are aware of the fact that q bet
ter gentleman for the receiver
ship of the Miles Office than Mr..
Auld cannot be found. as he has
proven his fitness for that posit-

1888, ,544 acres have been worked
up in the surveyor generals office
approved and forwarded to the
commissioner of the general land
office, where it is awaiting his
acceptance. It is believed that
all of this amount will be accept
ed within ninety days, and the
land thrown open for entry. OF
the belance of 4,268, 457 acres,
the notes are being plated and
checked and as rapidly as this
can be done the work will be ap-
proved by the surveyor general,
and forwarded to Washington
for final acceptance. 1t hoped
that the most of it can be thus
disposed of by July 1st. In some
cases corrections in the field will
be found necessary and it is pro-
bable cannot be finally disposed
Of until next fall or early winter.
The cost Of the field work for
the 2,O23,OOO acres surveyed in
1911 under the "direct system"
is approximately three and one
tenth cents per acre. Had it
been done under the old system
by contract it would have cost
approximately seven cents per
acre.
This fact" said Attorney
Geueral Locke, coupled with
the facts that under the direct
system, practically all of the
corners are iron posts, and can
not be so easily destroyed, or
moved, that under the direct
system there is eliminated the
heavy expenses and long delay
of examination by an inspector
and the more important fact that
the work is of a far better quail
ity. because the Edeputy has nc
incentive to slight details for the
sake of speed and profit, makes
it patent that it was a serious
mistake that such a system was
not inaugurated years ago.

is TOO BUSY ELSEWHERE.

Christy Mathewson, the worlds
greatest pitcher OF all time. whose rep
utation was enhanced when his New
York giants were beaten in the final
game of the worlds series, talked to
a New York reporter recently. Matty
was there, not as Big SiX, the great
pitcher, but as referee of the interstate
checker match between New York and
Massachusetts.
In paying a tribute to the late John
T. Brush, he said: President Brush
was a man with brains. He was one
of the big factors in bringing baseball
into the exalted position 1T now occu-
pies, n that, too, despite the .handi-
cap of continued and chronic i'll health.
Mr.. Brush was a very fine gentleman,
a delightful man to meet, and a thor

That's just a wild statement"
Which was the better club, in youl
opinion, our red sox champions or the

THE athletics pitchers were superior
the athletics tried more inside play
than the red sox. They tried several
things in the first game of the series.
They did not win that game, but they
continued to try and to show things
and eventually came through. On the

THORPE GREATEST
HALFBACK IN Land

New York, Dec. 3.-"The football
season of 1912 will go down in the
history of the game as the year of
great halfbacks and of great drop
kickers,' says Hamilton Fish, jr, for
mer Harvard player, in a morning pa
per.
There has probably been a
season when there was such an abund-
ance of high caliber backs or such .ex-
cellent talent at drop kicking. The Sc
lection of the three best backs in the
country is a difficult task to under
take.
MY first choice would be Thorpe OF
Carlisle, the most valuable all-round
player in the game, and probably the
greatest halfbaCk that has ever played
football. He excels in all departments
because of his phenomenal makeup of
speed and power. He is a long distance
punter and a more dangerous drop
kicker than Brickley from beyond the
forty yard line.
Captain Thorpe was the mainstay of
the remarkable Indian team on offense
and defense, and was largely respon-
sible for the wonderful showing of that
team. 'f ?
"For the other half, Brickley of Har-
ward has the best claim, because of
his consistent performances through
out the season. Brickley is the great
est drop kicker in recent years, getting
the ball away quickly and surely and
within the forty yard line he probably
excels any drop kicker that ever play
ed" .
