recting that hereafter the state shall
have 60-day preference right in
which to file.
This will have the effect of giving
the state first choice to file on lands
that have been restored 10 entry. In
all, about 500. 900 acres Of land in cas-
tern Montana have been withdrawn for
various purposes. AS this was re-
stored, settlers filed on the choicest
tracts, and the state was forced to
take the poorer pieces. A protest was
made, because the state is given SD
days, after plats are filed, in which to
decide il it wants any Of it to fill its
selections. but in the case of land with
drawn and then restored, it has been
denied the right heretofore.
AS result of the governors repre-
sentations to the secretary of the in
terror, ar order was made directing
the commissioner Of the general land
office Immediately to have pending un-
approved selections of the state ex-
amined. These embrace more than

lected by the state as far back as 1899.

also made that steps will be taken i'm

CROP PROSPECTS
NEVER BETTER
Outlook for Big Production
the Best in Long Time.

Never before in the agricultural
history Of Dawson county have crop
prospects been as good as at the
present time.
Since the recent generous rains.
all kinds of vegetation have flourish
Ell wonderfully. and now the entire
country is mass of green that does
the heart good to look upon.
In every dire ction, and in any
part Of the county. wherever ore
cares to go. the same conditions are
met. 1t would indeed take some
remarkably dry weather to set back
the growing crops as they are now,
and the concensus of opinion Of the
farmers generally seems to be that
n amount Of dry weather, if we
should have it later, can keep the
ii lers Of the soil of Dawson county
from having bounteous crops of
every kind. Naturally the farmers
are jubilant lot. Nature has done
we'll by them this year.
Although the starting of the pres
ent season was little late. all seed
placed in the ground has made
steady and rapid growth. and the
continued late rains have given il
the impetus that it needs.
Wheat. oats. flax and e0rn were
probably never better. considered as
a whole all over the county. Talks
with many experienced farmers in
these different grains have given Us
some basis on which to figure the

Michigan Governor Hopes None
Will Help The Malcontents

Lansing, Mich. July 9.-Gavernor 6.
Osborn in statement expresses the
hope THAT all good Republicans will
refuse to join the malcontents" in
the formation Of a new party and
says those who are not satisfied with
Mr.. Taft as a presidential candidate
can get what they desire by voting
for Governor Wilson.
i am not inconsistent in the posi-
tion | have taken that Republicans
need not bolt their party and will
not be considered as having bolted if
they vote for Wilson," he said.
MANY prominent and influential
Democrats in the country did not
vote for nor support Mr.. Bryan.
They remained Democrats neverthe-
less. and now all are supporting
Woodrow Wilson.
i don't think a new party. erected
upon the passions of any number OF
men, can live 0ne-half the work
necessary to create a party if direct
ed to purifying the Republican
party will produce tenfold better
results. hope all good Republicans
will refuse to join the malcontents

Glendive Defeats Beach AL
Beach On The Fourth

In fast and we'll played game OF
baseball the Cubs defeated the Beach
aggregation the Fourth By score of
to6. The game was exciting through
out and although the Cubs were never
in great danger of losing the contest,
it was close enough to hold the inter-
est of the large crowd which was in
attendance. Beach wanted to win this
game very badly for it decided the su-
periority of the two clubs, each hav-
ing previously won a game. The Beach
rooters We're very strenuous in their
efforts and were ably assisted by the
Beach brass band, which played eve
rything from Dixie" to Home,
Sweet Home" in q vsin attempt to
rattle and fluster the Cubs. But all in
vain, for the Cubs played their usual
strong, heady game and absolutely re-
fused to become excited or anything
else and kept pegging away, retiring
Beach batters and piling up score af-
ter score. The Cubs weakened bit in
the sixth and Beach scored FIVE runs.
thereby giving the otherwise monoto-
nous game trend Of interest. But
the Cubs came right back
and won the game in the eighth.
Calvin was on the mound for the
Cubs and although eleven hits were
made off his delivery, his pitching in
pinches was good. He received gilt
edge support, especially from the Cub
iniield, who grabbed everything in
sight with gluttonous vengeance. The
Cub infield with HiIdebrand at first,
Geib at second, Robedee at short and
Jones at third is almost impenetrable
and they are by far the classiest in
field in this neck of the woods. They
play ball all of the time and turn
many a wouldbe base runner back to
the bench. Below is the official as
sassinated press score:

Hilles Is Chosen To Manage
Taft Campaign

Washington, July 9.-Charles D.
Hiiies, private secretary to President
Taft, was today chosen for chairman
of the Republican national committee
and James B. Reynolds, now a mem
ber Of the tariff board, was chosen for
secretary.
President Taft this morning again
met the subcommittee of nine from
the national committee to perfect
plans for carrying on the campaign.
Chairman Hilles and the full national
committee will meet July 10 in New
York and appoint a treasurer and
other officers, an executive and an
advisory committee.
Otto Barnard of New York, Charles
G. DAVIS and David r. Forgan of Chi
cago, John Wanamaker Of Philadel-
Phia, w. F. Swinney of Kansas City
and John Hays Hammond of Washing
ton are considered for treasurer but
no decision has been reached.
Hilles will resign as secretary to
the president on Saturday. It is
thought unlikely that Taft will ap-
point successor but will turn the
business of the executive offices over
to the two assistant secretaries, Ru-
dolra Foster and Sherman Allen.
Headquarters Of the national COM
mittee are TO be opened in New York
next week. The opening of a middle
west headquarters at Chicago and Pa
cific coast headquarters at Portland
was considered and practically decided
upon. Ralph e. Williams, former
national committeeman from Oregon,
was practically elected to take charge.

probable yield. The results are
that wheat is expected to go from
20 to 80 bushels per acre. oats from
35 to SO, and flax from 10 to Is. The
different varieties of corn are also
looking splendid. but at this stage
Of the season. it would be somewhat
difficult to figure the probable WELD.
A magnificent acreage will meet
the knife Of the harvester this year.
Over 100000 acres are estimated, on
a conservative basis. to be in crop in
this great county the present season.
When all this is threshed and the
product marketed. the farmers
prosperity will be transmitted in
great degree TO all the residents OF
the various communities. Money
should be more plentiful than it has
been for several years.
The Dawson County Fair in Sep
tember should have better agricui-
tural exhibit than it has ever had
before, and no one can doubt that it
will be an exhibition of the county's
resources worth going a long, long
distance to see. The St. Paul Land
Show will also do much with its
Dawson county exhibit to advertise
our magnificent resources.
The year Of 1912 is bound to go
down into history as the one that
saw the first mighty impetus given
TO the vast agricultural resources of
the immense domain contained in
our great county Of Dawson.

WaShlNGTON. Aug. 16.-The fallacy
OF senator Watson's post-electiou
primary plan Is so plainly apparent
that McGraw Democrats II they con-
sider the primary scheme carefully
have but one recourse TO prevent the
rteurn OF Watson to the Senate and
that Is to aid in electing a Republican
legis lature.
The post-election primary drafted
under the personal supervision and
with the sole object OF enhancing the
political fortunes OF Senator Watson.
provides that is the event OF a Demo
cratic majority In the Legislature to
be elected In November. that exactly
one week after the elections the Dem.
ocratic voters shall 40 10 the polls
and indicate their preference for
United States Senator.
So far there are out two avoweC.
candidates among the Democrats for
the Senatorship, the incumbent. Clar-
ence w. Watsos. OF Fairmont. and
John T. McGraw. OF uraron. Mr.. Nc.
Graw In the announcement OF his
candidacy states that he will make q
determined candidacy for the honor
conditional OF course. upon the Leg
islature beisg Democratic.
Now anyone fami.far with politics
IN West Virginia knows that in the
event that the legislative race is close
between the Democrats and Republi-
cans that IN all probability the COM
plexion OF the next Legislature will

four days after the general election,

ties, the returns always come in slow
ly. In fact It is often several days
after the election before the voters
of Pendletoh know VINO will be their
next county clerk. prosecuting attor-
ney or commissioner. Suppose that
three or four votes constitutes a ma
jority in the next Legislature. Sup
posed that the returns from Pendleton
and other so-called back counties are
as usual belated. The Senatorial pri-
mary is the next Tuesday after the
general election. When will the can
didates in this primary conduct their
campaigns in the ever. that such
condition as has been pointed out,
arises?
Mr. McGraw's chief prowess as a
campaigner lies IN his ability on the
stump. His castigation OF the cor
ruption OF the last Legislature from
the hastings in every county in the
State in the event that he several
weeks in which TO make his campaign.
would probably result In his crushing

II is however absolute folly TO think
Of McGraw making an active cam
paign for the Senatorship and visit
ing every section of West Virginia

ticularly II he has to remain quietly
at his home for two OF three days I'M
I'll the complete returns are received

has n Democratic Legislature on his
hands or not
The thought OF McGraw stunning

lous communities OF the State are.
is not only ridiculous but silly and
absurd.
