Roman Keeps Right on
Growing This Winter
from Washington under date of
January e, says:

from Washington under date o:
January e, says:
! AS a sweeping blow to the
anti-saloon movement over the
country, and practically making
all dry states of the union into
wet territory, the supreme court
today handed down a decision by
which liquor may be shipped
from one state into another, de-
spite the state laws to the con-
trary.
Dry" states from today are
no longer "dry" states, and the
prohibitionists have had their
work of years destroyed by the
decision today.
It was held that no state has
the right to prohibit the ship
ment Of liquor into it's territory.
Kansas. one of the leading pro-
hibition states Of the country,
and one that has been the driest
of all, will be among those ef-
fected.
From the decision, agents Of
breweries may operate in any
territory in the United States.
Private orders for ''booze" may
be taken and the liquor shipped
direct to the private individuals.
The states may still retain their
right to pass liquor laws in the
matter Of retail trading. Cities
may still make laws forbidding
the granting Of liquor licenses,
but the amber fluid" will flow
freely from now on, and the
thirst of thousands in the dry
states may now be quenched.
The decision is important to the
brewers. 1t will probably mean
that the output of the past year
will be doubled during the COM
ing year. Prohibitionists all over
the country are downhearted.

ment that the local land office
officials have hardly known where
they were att a good portion
of the time. Following instruc-
tions one day, and the next day
they are found to be wrong. 1t
has been a difficult problem and
local officials are not to be held
responsible for the situation.
Another peculiar and at the
same time gratifying feature
about the whole matter is that
notwithstanding these handicaps,
the homesteaders have gone for
ward and made good. With final
proof made difficult, and with
the duplicate receipts usually
issued denied them, the question
is what is to be done?
This paper believes that a
solution of the difficulty lies in
the issuance of a receipt which
will satisfy the men who have
money to loan, and will venture
to loan it on the strength of some
assurance that the homesteader
has performed all that can be
done at this time.
None of them can pay the
water charge, because it is not
known at this time what the
charge is to be. Those who have
loaned money on committed en-
tries have done so knowing that
there was q charge yet to be
paid, SO the situation in this re-
spect is not changed one par
ticle.
Concerted action on the part of
those interested might induce the
department to issue a receipt
showing these facts, which would
be satisfactory to all, and it
should be done.

Reduction in Prices

Major Morgan has succeeded
in securing a reduction in the
prices of wood, posts, poles and
logs, cut from the tribal lands,
which will amount to quite a
sum to the farmers and people of
the reservation in general, when
taken in the aggregate. 1t re-
quired considerable time and ef-
fort to secure this reduction from
the Indian department, but he is
glad to announce that hereafter
the prices to be charged will be
as follows:
Wood, 48 in. reduced from 25c
per cord to 1Oc.
Posts reduced from &c to 1c.
Poles . !" &c to 1c.
Logs from $3.50 to $1.00 per M.
At the time the reservation
was opened some tracts were set
aside for the use of the Indians
only, as timber reserves, and
none of this timber is available
under this reduction, and the
wood, poles, etc., must be taken
from unreserved tribal lands.
Anyone desiring wood, poles,
posts or logs, should communi-
cate direct with the office at
Jocko for permits and all will re-
ceive prompt attention.

Bateman -TOrseth

Miss Ora Bateman and T. j.
Torseth were married at $3.50
O'Clock Thursday evening in the
parlors Of the hotel at Ravalli.
Rev. Harold Griffis of Missoula
performed the wedding cere-
mony in the presence of a large
company of friends and relatives
of the popular young people. At
the conclusion of the services an
elaborate supper was served.
Mr.. and Mrs. Torseth will make
their home in Ravalli where Mr..
Torseth is telegraph operator for
the Northern Pacific railway,
and where the bride has lived
since her little girlhood, her par
ents being Mr.. ard Mrs. T. l..
Bateman proprietors of the hotel
and stage line.
A distinguishing feature of
this marriage is that it is the
first wedding ceremony to be
performed in Ravalli. Missoul-

would be greatly pleased to see
Col. Bryan nominated at Balti-
more for the presidency. He
persistently states that he is not
a candidate, and so does Col.
Roosevelt, but while neither of
them may at this time be, they
might both change their minds
at any time. There is no ques-
ton but what Col. Bryan is the
first real progressive, and should
have the call when progressive
candidate is nominated. He has
led the fight for 16 years now
and has at all times stood out
strong for the right of the people
as against special interests, and
surely it seems only right that at
this time, when the election of
a progressive is possible, that he
should again be called upon to
lead.
Some contend that the nomi-
nation of President Taft is alb
solutely certain, but should Col.
Roosevelt announce his candi-
dacy, the situation would be
changed materially. Quite num-
ber OF men might be found who
would vote for Taft were the ex-
president not in the race, who
would not do so if he were. That
might make his nomination a
question still greater his elec-
ton were he nominated. So
many republicans believe that
the president should not be elec-
ted again as to make them favor
any other candidate who might
be elected. At best, they say
the fight would be a bitter one,
but with Taft nominated there
would be>nothing but sure defeat
ahead.
Stranger things have hap
pened, however, than that it
would be Taft and Bryan again.

Running Line

Surveyors representing the
electric line, proposed by Mr..
Arnold of Poison, have been at
work in the vicinity of Roman
for the past few days, running
preliminary line. This is the
line, contemplated by some of
our Poison friends, from Dixon
to the lake town, which has been
the subject of negotiations be-
fore.
1t will be remembered that
some time ago party of Poison
people came down to Roman in
the interest Of this road and pre-
posed a plan whereby the Roman
people would finance the scheme
to the extent of putting up the
money for a preliminary survey.
Inquiries at the time revealed
the fact that so far Poison had
only subscribed about four hun
dred dollars, with Dixon in to
the tune of over $4,000, and Ro-
nan was invited to put up the
balance needed. At that time it
was not done-and up to date no
one has heard of it being done,
so somebody else must have
'come across as the men are at
work with surveying instruments
and other necessary paraphan-
ALA.
Now, there is no intention of
being funny about this railroad
project, and the Pioneer will be
among the first to lend every
assistance possible to an electrict
line, or any other kind Of a line,
when the proposition is presented
in a business like manner. 1t
will not be diverted from it's
efforts in building up the coun-
try, but the proposition must be
bona fide, and no shoestring fl
nance. If Mr.. Arnold is sincere
and has the backing to build any
portion of the line, the people of
Roman will not be found knock
ing, but will help in every way
possible.

The Pork Industry

A number of the farmers liv-
ing tributary to Roman have at
the present time quite a number
of fat hogs ready for the market.
The local market cannot buy all
there are offered and some out
side market must be had for
all these fat porkers. The price
of fat hogs heretofore has made
this a paying industry, and with
the supply limited to the demand,
it was an exceptionally good
thing for the farmer who had
the fat hogs. 1t is different
now, with the supply exceeding
the demand, and some avenue
must be devised to absorb the
surplus.
Missoula butchers will find the
Flathead a good place to visit
when in search of pork, and the
farmer here will supply their
wants on short notice.
There is another way to dis
pose of the surplus which will be
equally as advantageous to the
buyer as to the seller. Roman
buys during the summer months
many tons of hams and bacon
and lard, and this demand should
be supplied from the surplus now
on hand in the pens of the hog
raisers of this section. Home
cured bacon and hams are the
best in the world, when properly
cured, and there should be a
ready market during the summer
months for all the meats of this
kind which can be supplied by
the farmers of the valley.
Those who cure the home pro-
duct should also be able to sell
all the surplus lard they may
have at prices lower than paid to
eastern packers, and still make a
greater profit. Home rendered
lard is the best in the world, as
it is unadulterated and is the
pure article. Many of the house
wives of this section will welcome
the opportunity of buying the
home product whenever possible
and at the same time will keep
the money at home which other
wise would be sent east and
never return.
Hog raisers should not become
disheartened by reason of there
being no local demand to take up
all that they may have to sell at
this time, but should increase the
output and supply all the cured
meat and lard the country will
demand for years to come.

Butte Capital to Build
Flour Mill i'm Roman

Ross Lemire of Lemire Bros.
received word Wednesday that
G. L. Gagnon and Henry Crengle
of Butte, would be in Roman to.
day or tomorrow to complete ar
rangements for the building of a
high grade Touring mill in Ro-
nan.
The plans for the mill structure
have all been drawn and an esti-
mate made of .sthe machinery
needed to properly equip mod
ern mill to be in operation before
the coming wheat crop is to be
moved. The above parties are
provided with the necessary cap
ital to construct and equip this
mill and all that will be expected
of local people is their cooper
alton and a site for the same.
The needs Of the community
demand such an enterprise, and
the Pioneer congratulates the
citizens of Roman and the farm
ers of the Mission valley on their
good fortune in securing these
gentlemen with their capital and
enterprise to become interested
in the town and country.

Duplicate Re-
ceipt Recalled

During the past week several
of those who made communication
proof last fall and during the
winter, have received official
notification to return to the land
Office the duplicate receipts issued
at the time their proof was SUBJ
mitted. The statement is made
that while the homesteader has
done all that is required so far
as residence is concerned, that
duplicate receipts cannot at this
time be issued, for the reason
that where the tracts are farm
units no patents can be granted
until at least one half the irri-
gable area has been irrigated and
all the water charge assessed
against the land has been paid.
Those who have made proof
on land other than farm units
will undoubtedly be granted dup
licate receipts and in due course
of time have patents issued to
them. The general land office
does this, and it is said that the
department is about up with the
work so three or four months
should be about the time before
a patent is issued to those who
have taken land not included in
the farm units.
This action makes quite a diff
ference to a number of those
who have submitted their proof
and have received the receipts
now called in. Many of them
have sold or encumbered the
land, and this was done on the
strength of the final receipt.
That is a course heretofore prac-
tised in all new countries, and it
was thought that the Flathead
was to be no exception to the
rule. Men with money will
hardly make a loan now, unless
some receipt other than for the
money paid is given to those who
make proof. 1t seems as though
a receipt should be issued which
would show that the homesteader
has complied with all the require
ments except the payment of the
water charge, and should this be
done it will enable those who are
compelled to raise money on their
places to do so.
There probably never was be-
fore, and it is earnestly hoped
never will be again, SO many
problems to work out as on the
Flathead reservation. All prece-
dents have been set aside in the
manner of filing, and so many
changes have occurred since the
Flathead was opened to settle
