to be the largest range steer ever
sent to market was shipped out OF

AMONG OUR NEIeHBORS.
A Grist Of Items Gathered From Our
Northern Montana Exchanges.

Chinook Opinion: The sheriff is
building a stockade around the old
county Jail here to make 1t possible to
confne county prisoners Ia the build
ing without keeping them 10 the cells
ell OF the time. The ssockade will be
II feet 10 height.
Shelby News: The farmers living
out north are forming a telephone
company to run a line from this place
toward the Gold Butte country. They
will probably buy the present line
which has been ia q bad state OF re-
pair for a year or more.
Culbertson Republican: The low
rates which went into effect Friday
morning are bringing settlers west by
the hundreds and the present indtca-
tions are that the state will witness
an influx of settlers this spring that
will surpsss ell other years.
Havre P%laindealer: Hon. John
Stanton, of Great Falls, was In Havre
this week and made q formal offer TO
the board OF county commissioners OF
the cite offered by his brother Hon.
| George Station for the erection OF the
county buildings of Hill county, as
made through the columns OF the
Plaindealer during the recent cam
paign.
Culbertson Searchlight: The citi-
zens of Malta are busy making pre-
parations to divide Valley county by
taking a liberal slice off from Valley
county and a smaller piece OF the new
county of Blaine and forming a new
county with Malta as the county seat.
The plan is entirely feasible, but can.
not be worked until ,hs new assessment

ceived in Malta Tuesda y evening OF

the board of county commissioner:
asking them to make an a%ppropria
ton for the purpose OF holding
county fair during the coming fall
Our people have come to the conclu
sion that a county fair will do more tt
show what this wonderful country
produces than any other means o
advertising, and it will do mora to
ward harmonizing the peoples inter
ests than any other one thing. Unde
the statutes the board of county com
m~issioners can purchase land ant

STILL IN THE AIR.

AS was anticipated by many the
voting in Ohio yesterday resulted lin
a division of the delegates among the
rival candidates of both the republican
and democratic parties. The pre-
ferential primary law In Ohio is very
different from what it is in other
states and the two big parties voted
Under different arrangements, a fact
which adds somewhat to the confus-
ion.
In the republican race Roosevelt
was the favorite but whether or not
he will capture the delegates seems
uncertain. The Taft manager as
serts the president will control the
convention and get the delegates at
large. The democratic situation is
almost equally mixed. Harmon and
Wilson ran a comparatively close race
though the early reports credit VIC
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-05-22

conceive that Richeson died for the
sake of Christ and that his sin was
forgiven. He did not die for Christ's
sake. He was executed against his
will as punishment for dastardly
crime. No sin is ever forgiven or
overlooked. 1t must always be paid
for in one way or another and this is
in keeping with the biblical declara-
ton that Whatsoever man soweth
that shalt he also reap" Incidentally
this doctrine as to sowing and reap
ing is more wholesome doctrine than
the doctrine of the forgiveness of sins.
Ii would be snap for evil doers OF
all varieties if they could be assured
that no matter what wrongs they
might do they could find absolution
and go to the great beyond with a
clear record.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-05-22

tory to the Harmon forces.
If the Ohio strength in the national
conventions is as badly divided as re-
ports at present indicate the Ohio pri-
mary will change the situation but
little. Had either element in either
party won a sweeping victory it would
have almost turned the tide of bat
tie in the particular party concerned
since the contests are all close at this
time.
The general situation at present
seems to indicate that in the repub-
lican party President Taft will go to
Chicago with an advantage over
Roosevelt in that he will have slight.
ly large number of delegates and the
machinery under his control. BY
steam roller methods the Taft forces
will quite likely control he convention
and take the nomination. The Roos-
evelt strength will be so great however
that the thing will not be easy and
when the steam roller attempts to
grind down delegations that have
been duly elected and are pledged to
the colonel it is very probable a bolt
will occur. 1t will not be at all sur
prising to see two republican presi-
dental tickets in the field each claim
ing to be the duly accredited ticket.
In the democratic party the situ-
alton today is simply one of chaos
and no prophet of discretion will at
tempt to say what the outcome will
be. The greater portion of the DEM
ocratic delegates are unpledged and
they have purposely kept free so as
to be able to go the way that seems
most fitting after the fight in the re-
publican party has worked itself out.
/ The democratic leaders have been
waiting intending to select their man
in accordance with whether or not he
will have to run against Taft or
Roosevelt. Just whom they will pick
if the democratic candidate must race
against both the president and ex-
president is a very interesting ques-
tion. The only thing certain is that
if they hope for success they must
name a progressive of no uncertain
character and a popular man. Should
both Taft and Roosevelt run under re-
publican colors and the democrats
nominate a reactionary it will mean
the election of Roosevelt despite the
fact his party will be rent in twain.

Allows One Drunk a Year.

Washington.-Only one case of in
toxication a year will be allowed to
the citizens of the District of Columbia
is a bill introduced in the house by
Representative Kindred should be-
come a law. Representative Kindred
proposes to exercise a paternal au-
thority over "drunks" and to send
them to an industrial colony to cure
them of their thirst.
The bill authorizes the establish
ment of a central office, where a
card index of "drunks" will be kept.
Whenever a person is arrested for
public intoxication the police must
telephone to the central office of the
board of inebrity and ascertain wheth-
er or not the drunk has been drunk
before, and If 1t is shown that he has
not been drunk for a whole year he
may be turned loose as soon as he is
able to take care of himself If his
name appears on the index as having
been drunk within twelve months he
is then in danger of having to take
his thirst with him to an industrial
colony for an indefinite term.

The Portland Journal asks how
much money is being spent in Ohio;
who is spending it; who is financing
the Roosevelt campaign and the Taft
campaign and what the people who
put up that money are trying to buy.
1t is a good time to ask such ques-
tions and Judge King and Thomas
McCusker are going to put the pro-
position up to the two big political
conventions.
