INTERSTATE COMMERCE
REDUCES EXPRESS RATES

The interstate commerce COM
mission has ordered a reduction
in express rates amounting to
fully Is percent. Drastric re-
form in regulations and practices
in the method of operation is
also prescribed.
Briefly stated, the new rates
may be said to be based upon a
minimum charge of 21 cents for
a one-pound package. This
charge increases in ratio to the
increase of weight and distance,
at rates varying from three
tenths Of a cent a pound, to
about IL cents a pound. Twelve

STUDENTS PASS
THE STATE Examination

The board Of examiners for
eighth grade diplomas for Mis-
soula county has made it's report
and many students passed the
examination successfully. There
were five scholars from Roman
who took the examination, and
while some will be required to
take the examination over in
some branches, on a whole their
papers were quite creditable.
Thorne Brown was the only one
from Roman to receive a diploma
at this time, but in August it is
almost certain the others will
pass. They are Minnie Brown,
Homer Carper, Lura Miller and
Nellie Billings.
Leonard Peone, Bertha Pied
alue, Eugene Potvin, Henry
Jendelle, Alice Edmondson,
Goldie Irish, Bessie Dellwo,
Eleanor Hull and Melvin Dix
took the examination for geog-
raphy and all passed.

FALLS WILL PLAY
BALL IN ROMAN NEXT SUNDAY

Manager Carper has secured a
game with the strong Thompson
Falls team for next Sunday and
the best game of the season is
looked for. The Power City boys
are a fast bunch ON the diamond
and will put up a game that
will De hard to beat.
The Roman team will be COM
posed Of the regular players next
Sunday and will not be in the
crippled condition of the last game
Or two. Earl Wagner will be back
from Kalispell and occupy the
pitchers box, and Tom Wagner
is expected to be able to do the
catching; but if not, then Bricker
will do the receiving.
Some fast ball playing should
be the result and this game will
certainly attract large crowd.

B|CFORK V|CTORS
UNDER HANDICAP

The game between Bigfork and
Roman last Sunday was one of the
most interesting played on the
local diamond this season. This
was partly due to the fact that a
number of Romans regular play
ers were out of town and there
fore out of the game, and the
team was a picked-up combina-
tion composed of school boys, men
who had not played before this
season, and some of theregulars.
Earl Wagner, the regular pitch
er was in Kalispell, land Phil Hull
consented to try his arm again.
He pitched only a few innings
when his arm gave out and he
was succeeded by Claud Wagner,
who held the Bigfork sluggers to
scattering hits. Tom Wagner,
the catcher, was retired in the
seventh with a sprained ankle
and Chris. Vandenburg was put
in to finish the game. The Big
forkers went through with their
original lineup and without mis-
haps.
In the first inning, with Bigfork
to bat, it was one, two, three and
out twith them. When Roman came
up it looked like they never would
retire, eight runs being made on
errors by the visitors. They
booted, muffed, fumbled, threw
wild and cavorted around like
kids. Finally the umpire declar-
ed three men out and the race
around the diamond was at an
end or practically so.
Bigfork was in to the bad with
the score standing 8 to 0, and il
looked like a cinch but their
men tightened and Roman only
made two more in eight times at
the bat, while the visitors scored
two, three, or more, until the
score was tied, and then forged
ahead one run and won the game
10 to IL.

while there was some kicking the
game was not quite so boistrous

INDIANS PETITION
AGENTS REMOVAL

Owing to the fact that Major
Morgan stopped the Sun dance
and annual celebration of the In
dians at Arlee last week, charg-
ing drunkenness and gambling, a
petition has been circulated ask
ing for his transfer or removal.
The charges laid against the Of

serious and the petition was evil

has a better understanding of the
English language than is acquired
in a tepee on a reservation.

prejudice, but such charges can
not be ignored and passed with
out notice.
The citizens of Arlee deny that
any drunkenness or gambling oc-

less occasion this year for inter-
ference than in past years. They
also claim the reason the dance
was not allowed to continue was
because it was not held at the

G. Howard Smith returned
from Portland the latter part of
last week to remain until after
his crop of wheat is harvested.
He has 80 acres of fine wheat
this year, in a section of the
country which last year did not
produce as good crops as other
portions, and upholds the theory
that with the seed properly sown
on we'll prepared ground, that a
crop may be expected anywhere
in the valley. Deep plowing and
thorough narrowing will pay
every time.

In a letter from Congressman
Pray that gentleman says that it
is the eastern conservationists
who are preventing the home
steaders on irrigation projects
from receiving patents or assign
able title to their land. Mr.. Pray
says that every effort is being
made to secure favorable action
by congress on this measure and
he has hopes of finally being sue
cessful.
The average easterner appar-
entity believes that the govern
ment is giving something for
nothing when a man takes up a
homestead. They do not realize
that to take up raw land, miles
from transportation, put it in
condition to produce, pay all it is
worth in cash, be tied hand and
foot to it for term of five years
- during which time they must
contend with idiotic department.
al orders and rulings and stand
the scrutiny of two-bit specially
imported land detectives who are
pensioners of some eastern poll
tician with a pull-costs lots of
hard earned money and much
more hard labor. All of which
should be counted as more than
mere money, the idol of the east.
1t has been said eastern people
believe any time a man receives
patent for homestead he has
the same as stole the land; or, in
other words, that the homestead
law is just another manner of
land thievery and that everyone
connected with the matter is a
party to the theft. If they will
but try the experiment and then
assert that homesteader is a
land thief, that person will be
voted amedal a bigger than mara
thon race course.
While the eastern conservation
list is pointing his finger at the
homesteader and crying thief, it
would not be out of place to ask
how matters are conducted in
their own pet departments hav-
ing to do with conservation, for
estry, power, reclamation and the
allied CRAFTS, wherein thousands
of incompetents wax fat yearly
at the public crib.
While on this subject it may be
added that there is not one frac-
tion of graft and thievery in a
homesteading locality compared
with one little river and harbol
Job which the eastern congress-
man is so particular to secure fol
his district.
Western congressman have
been up against this eastern SEN
timent for years and some have
been innoculated with it and are
unable to accomplish much for
their constituents on account OF
it.
The officials of the interior de-
partment are also considerably
like we'll, mighty peculiar.

FRED WA|TES|DE SPEAKS IN
ROMAN ON POLITICAL ISSUES

Last Saturday evening Fred
Whiteside of Kalispell, made the
first political speech Of the cam
paign in Roman. This early ap-
pearance was probably arranged
owing to the fact that the Hon.
Fred has a burning desire to
write governor of Montana
after his name, and was out
after few delegates.
The evening was a disagreable
one for a crowd to venture out,
as the rain fell during the time
when one would be going and
most of the time during the
speaking. He is said to have
paid most of his attention to
President Taft and the Hon.
Teddy and incidentally took a
fall out of the reclamation ser
vice. This has been one of his
hobbies, having written and
spoken about reclamation ex-
travagance several times hereto
fore.
The dance after the speaking
was an enjoyable affair and was
attended by a large crowd.

OVER 10000 ACRES IN GRAIN
Careful Estimate for
the Year 1912.
An AVERAGE YIELD is CERTAIN

The following figures will prove
to be a conservative estimate of
the acreage for each man named
who are farming in the Mission
valley this year. The men are
scattered in every direction from
Roman, and it will be noticed that
none have less than 40 acres.
There are many who have less
than 40 acres and this will bring
the grand total to over $4,000, -
probably will exceed 10000 acres
and the yield estimated at 20
bushels per acre for the wheat,
with three-fourths of the acreage
in this cereal, and the total esti-
mated crop it can readily be seen
will be large.
The list is not given as being
absolutely correct, only an esti-
mate, and where one man may
be a little high another may be
low, SO it will be found fairly ac-
curate in the aggregate.
Those who have been listed
and the acres in grain are as
