The Whitefish pilot. [volume] (Whitefish, Mont.) 1904-current, 1912-02-01

It is true that when the voters OF
the county. especially those outside
of the city of Kalispell, had an op-
portunity at the election two years
ago to say whether or not the coun-
ty should be bonded for the purpose
of building dormitory for the chill
dren, they were SO engrossed in
other political affairs that they
thought little of the Importance of
this matter, and turned down the
question of providing so that the fu-
ture generation can get an educa-
ton, and voted to bond to build a
number of steel bridges instead.
Whitefish was younger town
then than it is now. The need of
better school facilities were not felt
so much, but now that the town has
grown up and a great number of
our children. in order to get a high
er education, have been compelled
to go to other cities, where they can
be taken care of, or have had to
drop school entirely for lack of
means, the question If again sub
mitted to the voters would carry by
a large majority in this. city, and no
doubt the same in other towns in
the county.

havoc in the windows Of that part OF
the country. In the Ardoch vicinity
there is hardly a whole window to

that city. Even plate glass windows
were crashed into atoms by the icy
downfall and residents put every
available obstruction into the windows
to keep out the heavy rains that fol-

Kenwortl1y in 81. Louis.

F. G. kenworthy, manager Of the
Kenworthy Aeroplane Exhibition COM
pany Of this city, has been in st. Louis
since the first OF the week securing
an aviator to temporarily replace Fred
HARM, who fell and was injured July
3 at Plentywood, Mont. It developed
several days ago that Harlm's injuries
were more serious than was at first
thought. His shoulder was broken
and his collar bone badly hurt and it
may be a month or more before ne
can take to the air again.
Manager Kenworthy however has a
big contract to fulfill at Devils Lake
Chautauqua next Saturday and Sun
day and has gone to st. Louis to get
n first class aviator to fill the bill. lin
coin Beachey worked for Kenworthy
at Winnipeg several weeks ago, and
in all probability will do the aviation
turn at the lake. Beachey is a broth
er OF Hillary Beachey. the most reck-
less daredevil flying at the present
day. Hillary Beachey was in the big
aviation e at Los Angeles in jan
uary and tool away considerable prize
money, winning several races and
prizes against thirty other hiers OF
international repute.
With Beachey or some other good
st. Louis aviator on the bill. the Dew
lis Lake visitors are assured Of a first
class exhibition in the aerial line.

RIDERS AGREE ON
SOME OF THE PRIZES

1t is practically assured that motor
cycle races will be featured at the
Grand Forks fair July so to August
2. Members Of the motorcycle club
held q conference with Secretary
Bachelor Of the fair association yes
terday and a satisfactory agreement
on the amount of the cash prizes to
be hung up was reached. according to
members of the club. The next step
to be taken is the arranging of a pro-
gram Of events and a meeting Of the
club will be called in a day or two to
take up this work.
Seven events will probably be run
OFF during the fair, although this has
not been definitely decided. The races
will be held afternoons and evenings.
Riders Of twin cyclinder machines
will probably bump up against the
half-mtle handicap proposition in the
ten-mile events. At least this was
suggested at the conference between
the club members and Secretary
Bachelor yesterday and 1t will be a
matter for the club to decide early in
the work Of forming the program.
Owners Of twins say hat this is too
great a handicap on the half mile
track as they cannot let their ma

they could on a mile track. Singles
will hold the half-mile course wide

Bessie Herberg shows her daring spir-
it-and incidentally the spirit Of riv-
alry-by duplicating the feat.
OF course. all this makes strenuous
entertainment for the public and adds
to the thrills of the performance.
During the next two weeks the girls
are to be given an opportunity to COM
pete for a gold medal offered by JOS
eph G. Miller, president and head Of
the 101 Ranch. for the best and clev-
crest rider of bucking horses.
There are thirty other cowgirls with
the 101 Ranch Wild West show. and
while they r all clever and daring
riders, they have refrained from en-
tering the contest, so that the battle
royal is absolutely between the rival
trio.
In the 1O1 Ranch there is, more
over, 1t is announced, a veritable con-
gress of Wild West people, including
cowboys, cowgirls. Indians from many
tribes. Mexican Vaqueros. old scouts
and plainsmen, and, for good measure,
and by way of contrast in the methods
of riding, there is a trouple Of genuine
Russian Cossacks. who utilize their
own little Russian ponies and high
saddles. All these typical people will
appear in the parade which inaugur-
ates Wild West day here.

may be a little surprising to some
who think there is not much interest

interesting to know that at these in

Cowgirls Vie for Honors
In lOl Ranch Wild West

There is a th~ree-cornered battle in
the ranks Of the female contingent of
the 101 Ranch Wild West. which
makes known its strenuous features
to the Grand Forks public next Mon
day, July is. The three participants
in this battle royal are cowgirls, and
they lay elm to the euphonious names
of Lulu Parr, Tillie Baldwin and Bes-
sic Herberg.
These cowgirls are all clever and
daring riders. They do stunts in the
big arena that would make the ordin-
airy cowboy hesitate. They ride "out-
law" horses, they lasso wild ponies,
they dash around the arena on long
horned steers. and they perform other
startling feats that make the Eyes Of
the spectators open wide and sends
the blood circulating through their
beins with a mixture Of fear and adj
miration.

feats Of one excite the emulation Of
the others. When Lulu Parr springs

A SUCCESSFUL YEAR
FOR FARMERS
INSTITUTE
Purse Empty at Start But all
Hands Join in the
Boosting.

During the year just closed there
were ga farmers institutes Of Psi
sessions held in North Dakota. The
attendance was 37,049. AsFarmers'
Institute train vas also run by the
Northern Pacific railroad. This made
halliday stops at Al towns and was
visited by $3.50 people. Twenty-Five
thousand copies of the Farmers insti-
tute annual were also distributed.
A year ago such a report was not
anticipated. as the farmers institute
treasury was empty. The appropria-
ton failed to rnaterialize. Personal
instruction such as the farmers insti-
tute brings was needed. The institute
board figured out that a two day meet
Ing could be held for 500 and a one
day institute for SIS. The towns re-
sponded and soon there was enough
money guaranteed to start out. The
agricultural college helped by sending
speakers. The railroads furnished
free transportation. The Northern
Pacific and the 500 each gave one
thousand dollars in cash. while the
Great Northern furnished a speaker
most OF the time and two a part of the
time.
There was nc money to print an
institute annual so an implement Arm
printed $4,000 copies Of a book of over
400 pages and donated it to the state.
The copy was furnished by the farm
ers' institute.
When the Northern Pacific offered
to u a train the institute manage
ment had to go to the agricultural
college and to the towns again. The
agricultural college equipped the train
and furnished the lecturers al in ali
AN average of 25 all the time.) This
train contained nine exhibition cars.
which was furnished by nine depart
ments OF h agricultural college as
follows: Live stock, poultry. soils,
crops. chemistry. veterinary science.
dairying. horticulture, home econ
omics.
The livestock consisted Of types Of
draft horse. beef and dairy cattle.
lard and bacon. hogs. and sheep.
These animals were housed in a box
car and taken out onto a fiat car for
demonstration lectures. The poultry
exhibit consisted Of a complete poultry
plan on a fiat car. The other exhibits
consisted Of material to illustrate
some of h main facts worked out by
the different departments.
The towns each put up $50. This
made possible the running Of the train
n with the splendid success men
toned above.
, One of the new features in the in
stitute work vas a series Of follow-up
meetings. Tee towns were selected
for this. The regular institute corps
held the first meeting. This was fol-
lowed up in w weeks by a special

SAYS He
IS UNDECIDED
IN CASE
Someone Else May Test the
Second Choice Proposition
Before Supreme Court.

Senator Leslie Simpson Of Dickin-
son. recently defeated for congress in
the Third district by P. D. Norton, is
undecided yet whether or not he will
bring a test case before the supreme
court and have the validity of the Sec
ond choice votes tested. Simpson won
out over Norton by 200 votes on first
choice. but lost on the second choice
ruling Of the secretary Of state.
When this fact was discovered word
was sent out that Simpson would test
the second choice votes and IL he won
his case he would be the nominee in.
stead of Norton. %
Word was received from Dickinson
today that Simpson was moi certain
whether he would bring the test suit.
but it is understood that If he does
not someone else in the state will take
the issue for a final decision.
