Senator DixOn's Letter
to a Valley View Settler

here in trying to bring about re-
lief to the settlers who had in
good faith gone in and taken up
this land. AS to particular places
where work is to be done, | am
poWerless to dictate as that is a
matter wholly under the control
OF the engineers.
Il get here many inquiries
from settlers situated as you are
wanting to know when their land
can be irrigated. | wish you
would give full publicity to the
information contained herein as
it will explain to the settlers
some of the difficulties under
which | have labored in trying
to bring about the long sought
for relief.
Assuring you that am at all
times glad to be of any possible
service to you in any way, | am,
Yours very truly,
JOS. M. DIXON."

sanitary condition as they should

sanitary condition as they should
be.
"All schools should be swept
daily and all sweepings and
waste paper should be burned,
not thrown out.
"All schools should be scrub
bed once a week and more often
as demanded by bad weatherc on
ditions. No number of sweep
ings will do as a substitute for
an occasional thorough scrubbing.
All toilets should be kept clean
and fly proof. There should be
a sufficient external embankment
to exclude air and they should be
screened. Some suitable disin-
fectant as slack lime, chloride of
lime or creolin should OCCASION
ally be used.
There should be individual
and not one common drinking
cup. A covered earthen jar of
suitable size with a faucet in the
side near the bottom should be
used. The jar should be cleaned
with scalding water frequently.
A close observance of these rules
will do much to prevent the dis
semination of many contagious
and deadly diseases.
Very truly yours,
E. C. ANDERSON,
County Health Officer.

Roman to Be Terminus
of Mission Valley Road

How could it be otherwise?
There will soon be more acres
under irrigation contiguous to
Roman than any other town in
the world. That is a broad state
ment, but it is a fact, neverthe-
less. With more irrigable acres
surrounding the town than any
other can boast of, what is there
to prevent it becoming one of the
best in all the state? Nothing
can and nothing will.
There is no intention of BOOM
ing Roman, and that we shall en-
deavor to prevent. What is
wanted is a steady growth in the
future such as has been the case
in the past, and with this con-
dition prevailing, the coming
season will find the town forging
ahead and steadily taking front
rank.

Great Falls Objects

The business men of Great
Falls are objecting to the ex-
pense of two telephone compan-
les when one would answer the
purpose just as we'll or better.
They are situated similar to most
OF the other large towns in Mon
tana, and have taken the iniative
to have the two lines consolidate,
or else one buy the other out and
stop the expense of being COM
PEELED to have both phones. A
meeting of the citizens has been
held and the initial steps taken
to compel the consumation of
this object, 1t is said that should
this not be possible, then steps
are to be taken to take over both
companies and maintain mum
icipal owned telephone line. That
would be a most sensible move
on the part of the city, as it
would, insure then against any
extortionate rate which might be
put into effect by either COM
pany having a monopoly of the
business.
1t occurs to a great many here
in Roman that if the business
men of a city the size of Great
Falls finds it too expensive to
maintain two lines, then how will
it be with the business men of
Roman. One line could and would
answer our purpose very nicely,
but with present conditions pre-
vailing, it becomes almost neces-
sary to bear the double expense.
Some of the merchants an
nounce that they will not be i'm
posed upon by being made to put
in both phones, and were this
method adopted by all it would
soon solve itself.
Roman is not in a position to
absorb the telephone systems
here now, and that's pity, too.
AS a matter of principal, this
paper believes in municipal owned
public utilities, but when there
is not the means to do so, then
the next best course must be
pursued.

Turkey Red Wheat

MEN of large experience in
the milling and wheat business
about Minneapolis and St. Paul
were very enthusiastic about Mon
tana's turkey red wheat,' said
John H. Hall, state commissioner
of labor, industry and agricul-
ture, recently while discussing
his stay at the recent land show
at St. Paul. "Advise your far
mers, said one of the big wheat
buyers there continued Mr..
Hall, " to quit the other varie-
ties and go in for the turkey red
wheat
THAT statement made me
curious and l said to him, Why
do you talk that way about tur-
key red? Most of the buyers
want to grade it down to a num-
Der 2 wheat. Replying he said
to me, I base my statement
on my own experience and you
can draw your own conclusions.
l bought and sold more than a
million bushels of Montana tur-
key red wheat for the 1911 sea-
son. Every bushel was handled
at a good profit. The southern
millers are offering a premium
for Montana turkey red wheat
as a high grade number l hard
wheat. That is why | advise
you as I do. o"'
Commissioner Hall said this
was but one of the numerous
cases that came to his attention
about the standing that Montana
turkey red wheat has in the
market of the Twin Cities. "Tll
tell you that sort of argument
sounds good to me-" said Mr..
Hall. 1--WE are going to exploit
that sort of material for it is the
sort that convinces."

Will Build Sidewalks

Some of those citizens who live
in Scearce addition do not intend
to wait for a city council to order
sidewalks in before they pro-
ceed to build walks along their
premises. Lumber is now on the
ground to construct a four foot
walk from the A. M. Thornburgh
corner south across the street,
thence west in front of the resi-
dence property of Harvey Cox,
C. F. Rathbone, W. S. Hollings-
worth and ]. ]. Rogers. It is
more than likely that other citi-
zens along that street will extend
the sidewalk so as to cover the
southwest portion of town and
afford an easy manner of getting
to and from their homes.
May other portions of the town
emulate the good example before
them.

Travelling Salesman Booster

William P. Anderson, who is a
travelling salesman for a San
Francisco dry goods house, but
who is also a homesteader on the
Flathead, made final proof Mon
day last on a claim just across
the river near Sloan's Ferry.
Mr.. Anderson has spent a neat
sum of money improving his
place and has built a substantial
home, wherein his mother and
father reside, and they all think
there is no place like the ranch.
In submitting his proof of inn
provements and cultivation Of
the land, Mr.. Anderson furnished
some exhibits in the form Of
photographs taken when he first
hauled lumber thereon with
which to build his house and
barn, then he has another show
ing the house in course of con-
struction, another when COM
pleted, another with the chickens
and other live stock around the
place, and his mother is a promi-
nent figure in the foreground
feeding the chickens, and still
another showing the growing
wheat and other crops. 1t will
be an Innovation to the interior
department to find attached to
the proof photographs showing
the different stages of improve
ment.
Mr.. Anderson is one of Ro-
mans most persistent boosters,
too. He travels over California,
Oregon and Washington and is
talking Roman and the Flathead
at all times. He is looking fondly
forward to the time when he can
retire from the road and estab-
lish himself permanently on his
farm and when that time comes
he will be heartily welcomed by
all his neighbors and the citizens
Of the Flathead in general.

Says It's a Compromise

A news dispatch from Helena
in the Great Falls Tribune says
there has been held a conference
of the republican factions in this
state, and that as a result a pol
icy has been agreed upon which
is a compromise between pro-
gressives and regulars. The dis
patch purports to give the names
of those who met secretly in Hell
ena and committed the balance
Of the republican voters to a pol
icy which they may have deter
mined upon. Just what that
compromise consists of is not
said, but it is a compromise any,
way.
To a great many thinking re-
publicans, there is to be no COM
promise this year. Progressives
have wearied of the leadership
of those who have had the des-
tinies of the party in hand and
are determined to wrest from
them the control of the party
machinery. This being the case,
it will not leave a very good
taste in the mouths Of some to
read that it has been agreed by
certain ones in this state to COM
promise.

More Held to Grand Jury

On Saturday last the prelimi-
nary examination of Ovilla Cour-
will, charged with introducing
liquor into the Flathead reserva-
ton, was held before the u. S.
Commissioner in Roman, and
after hearing the evidence, he
was held to answer the charge
should the grand jury find an
indictment. On Monday NAL
colin Mcleod was also held to
answer a similar charge, the
bond in each case being fixed at
$500.

Volume II. No. 38.

A prominent business man OF
Roman was down to Missoula last
week and while there met a rep
resentative Of the Northern Pa
cific railroad who is probably bet-
ter posted on what that road will
do the coming season than any
other official, aside from those
constituting the board of direct
ors Of that road. In conversa-
tion with this gentleman, it was
learned that there is now no
doubt but what the Northern
Pacific will build a branch line
from Dixon into the reservation
this season, and also that it will
not be extended any farther for
the present than Roman.
Just why this branch will not
be extended to the Great North
ern is apparent when one stops
to consider what the effect Of
such a move would be. It would
mean that the Northern Pacific
would be building a feeder to
that road which would take away
from the main line and divert to
the rival all that portion of the
business which might be shipped
north from this section, while if
the branch only penetrated far
enough into the reservation to
catch the bulk of the business it
would still not divert anything
away from that road.
To build to the lake would be
to place the road in competition
with water transportation and be
just as risky a move as to build
direct to Kalispell or some other
point on the Great Northern.
Then the fact remains that should
the road build as far as Roman it
will have done enough to get all
the big business of the reserva-
ton, as it is from here and the
surrounding territory that all the
grain is raised which makes up
the big business a road expects
to get. During the past season
the steamers on the lake have
been entirely adequate to handle
such business as Poison gets, and
with nothing particular coming
into that place it would not pay
any road to build into that town.
Probably when that town has
built some good summer hotels
and a sufficient number of people
seek the shores of that beautiful
lake in the summer to make it a
paying proposition to run a line
into that section, then the road
will be extended, but not at the
present time. Railroads do not
mix sentiment with business and
no matter how eloquently the
people of Poison may plead their
cause and expound upon the
beautiful scenery they have to
show the people; a railroad wants
to be and must be assured of
something tangible to haul in
and out before they can be in
duced to spend the money it
would require to tunnel into that
town. .
This means a great deal to Ro-
nan and the towns south on the
reservation. 1t means all that
vast section between here and
the railroad, something like %
miles long and Is miles wide,
will be rapidly developed and
will supply a business for the
branch line far in excess of what
the tonnage has been in the past.
It means that St. Ignatius will
be provided with shipping facil-
ties far better than at present
and that some other small town
will be established midway be-
tween here and Dixon which will
add to the convenience of all in
doing the business of the coun-
try. To Roman it means that
with this town the terminus for
