George H. Cohan and ''kid" Burns

The character of Kid Burns
in Geo. M. Cohan's 5 clever musi-
cal comedy, 1.-The Talk of New
York, = was written originally
for the popular pugilist, kid"
M. Mccoy, but the kid" got
stage-fright at the first rehearsal
and a hurry-up call was sent out
for an actor who could look like
an athlete. The part fell to Vic
tor Moore, then in vaudeville,
with the result that Moore made
a hit. The play scored knock
out, and run successfully for
more than two years at the Ans
terdam Theatre, New York. j.
Roy Clair will be the Kid
Burns in this season S production.
He is a trained athlete and an
actor of uncommon ability.
The production this season is
said to be even more elaborate
than the first season. Several
novel features have been added,
including the famous "Blue Rib

Eastern Montana
Wants Factory

Billings, Mont. Jan. 4-The
Billings Chamber Of Commerce
is compiling data ga the cultiva-
ton of flax in eastern Montana
with a view of interesting manu-
facturers in the establishment Of
a factory somewhere in the Mid
land Empire for the manufacture
of binder tWine from the flax
straw. Montana flax was award
ed second prize at the St. Paul
Land Show. The past season
has demonstrated that flax can
be grown successfully in this
state, many Of the growers hav-
ing phenominal success, the yield
ranging from Is to "a bushels
per acre. The market price this
year ranged from S1.75 to $500
per bushel, making the new pro-
duct more profitable per acre
than wheat. 1t is estimated that
the farmers of the Midland EN-
pire paid $l20, 1000 for binder
twine last season, the price per
pound being about II cents. 1t
is figured that binder twine made
from flax straw by the new pro-
cess can be made and SOLD at
profit for 8 cents per pound. The
superiority of hemp twine over
Manila is found in the fact that
the former does not rot and is
free from molestation of insects
and rodents.

NATIONAL BANKS MUST
NOT GRANT 0VERDRAFTS

The comptroller of the cur
rency-the government official
under whose immediate control
are the National banks has issued
orders to the examiners in the
form Of lengthy circular in
which he says:
The practice among national
banks in granting overdrafts
should cease forthwith. The
supreme court of the United
States has taken a strong posi-
ton against the mode of banking
declaring that the usage of al
lowing customers to overdraw
and to have their checks charged
up without having present funds
in the bank stripped of all tech
nical disguise-is a usage and
practice to misapply the funds of
the banks
An overdraft is really a forced
loan and every we'll conducted
bank abhors them. Now that
the comptroller has set his foot
down on the practice, it will have
to cease.

Death Only Will
Prevent Says Taft

Washington, D.. c., Jan. 81
Nothing but death can keep me
out Of the fight now," President
Taft is reported to have made
this statement to White House
callers today, and to have added
that he had no objection to the
statement being made public. It
undoubtedly was intended to set
at rest all reports that Mr.. Taft
might withdraw from the race
for the Republican nomination
for president in favor of Colonel
Roosevelt.
The president is said to be
thoroughly aroused to the gravity
Of the situation in the Republi-
can party, and determined to let
his attitude be generally under
stood. He has declared that un-
der no circumstances will he
withdraw his name from consid-
GRAFTON by the Chicago conven-
ton next June, and has asserted
that his position with respect to
the nomination has not changed
in any particular since he first
entered the White House.
Mr.. Taft has told his friends
and party leaders from the first
that if he should be called upon
to stand for election he should be
glad to do so, and that he felt
under obligations to the party
for having made him president,
and was willing to abide by it's
decision III The convention. He
adheres to this position accord
ing to announcements today, and
will not quit the race until the
nominating ballots are cast at
Chicago.
The president was urged by a
number Of his closest friends to
make definite statement as to
his position. and agreed to do so
in the language quoted above.
With this statement as their in
it is said, the presi-
dents supporters at once will
begin an active campaign in his
behalf.

the General Land office or Int rio1
Department would prevent he
appointment of a receiver of q
United States land office for the
third term. Such a claim is being
made here in an effort to prevent
the reappointment of one of the
most efficient land office men in
Montana.
(Signed)
Editor Dawson County Review.
A reply from Attorney Loughran
came today, worded as follows:
Washington, d. c., Dec. 20, 1911
Dawson County Review,
Glendive, Montana,
There is absolutely nothing in
law, decisions or regulations
against the appointment of re-
ceiver for third successive term.
George Freeman, receiver at
Helena, is now in his third term.
Efficient men should be continued
indefinitely. The Secretary needs
them.
(SignedD Patrick FL. Loughran.
1t would appear from the fore
going that Mr.. Loughran not only
investigated as to the facts. but
that he ais learned the feeling of
Secretary of the Interior Fisher
concerning the matter. However.
that may develop later.
1t will be interesting, to say the
least, to see now what disposition
Senator Dixon, who is credited
with having promised the appoint
ment to Maxwell, will make of the
matter. 1t IS understood that at
least one or two letters have gone
to Washington, canceling previous
endorsements of Mr.. Maxwell,
though the latter-it is fair to say
is not held personally responsible !,
in public opinion for the unusual
political asI ect of this case.

In Regard to Au|d'S
Reappointment
(From The Dawson County Review

the Miles City land office revealed
q condition which has caused a
great deal of comment here.
Mr.. Auld's second term as re-
ceiver expires in February, and in
view of his splendid record in that
office. his many old-time friends
in Dawson county, where he lived
for nearly twenty years, consider
ed it practically certain that he
would be reappointed.
Not very great surprise was occas-
ioned, however, when it became
known thet one William Lindsay,
now holding federal job as Unit
ed States marshal and supposedly
barred by departmental rules from
mixing in these matters of appoin t.
ment. was working for the ap-
pointment Of d. G.. Maxwell of
this city, in place Of Mr.. Auld.
The real surprise resulted from
the statement made in support of
Mr.. Maxwells candidacy for the
appointment to the effect that Mr..
Auld was barred from reappoint-
ment by a departmental ruling
that receivers could not hold the
office for third term.
e. y. Berry, one of the promin-
ent Republicans of this city, was
asked by The Review if such a
statement had been made to him.
and he replied It's follows:
'l on can certainly use my name
in connection with this matter.
Mr. Lindsay came and asked me
to write letter endorsing Mr..
Maxwell for the appointment. I
asked him how about Joe Auld
and he told me that recent rulin @
of the department of the interior
made it impossible to reappoint
MIR. AIld. On that showing I |
wrote letter to Mr.. Dixon. en-.
dorsing Mr.. Maxwell"
The Review also understands
that similar statements were made
to others in Glendiye.
Colonel F. M. Malone of Miles
City was here few days ago, and
incidentally the methods used in
Mr.. Auld were made
known to him. He talked to Mr..
Berry and told him he was certain
that no departmental ruling in re.
gard to third-term receiyershlps
had ever been made.
Cut OF the incident came a letter
from Glendive to Mr.. Auld, re-
luesting him to come down here
and let his friends know exactly
what the facts were. And he came.
Mr.. Auld's position, briefly.
was this: He has held the re.
for two terms. If there
arose opposition to his reappoint.
nent, he had not intended to make
any fight for it. But he and his
friends want square deal at any
rate, and he knew there was no
egal bar to his continuance in
ofhce.
The Review was naturally inter.
asted in this mixnp, and deter
mined to find out the facts in re
gard to departmental rulings. Ac-
