The roundup record. [volume] (Roundup, Mont.) 1908-1929, 1912-10-18

"HE most important offices in the
county from the view point of
- the taxpayer are those of county
commissioners. The board of coun-
ty commissioners at their will can
conduct the affairs of the county
economically or extravagantly, just as
the bills of the county and pay out
the money. And necessarily the tax
levy must be contingent on the man.
ner in which they do things. 1t is
essential, therefore, that the taxpay-
ers look well into the qualifications
of the various candidates for these
positions before casting their ballots.
For the six year term county COM
missioner the Republicans of Mussel-
shell county picked a man who is ex-
ceptionally well qualified for this po-
sition. Olaf Jensvold is level-head-
ed farmer with good, sound business
judgment as is testified by the fact
that he has made success of his own
business. He was among the very
first of the dry land farmers to settle
in this county coming here in the fall
of 1907. His farming operations have
done much to instill confidence in the
settlers who have come in within the
last four years.
Olaf lens ID was born in Lincoln
county. s. tiLh Dakota. in 1878. He
was educated in the common schools
of his home county and attended
Augustana College for one year He
also was a student of the Sioux Falls
Business College for one year. The
OeOple of his home community honor
ed him with several positions of pub
lie trust which he held for a number
of years. He was elected to the posi-
tion of township clerk which office he
held for number of terms, and was
also chosen as clerk of the school
district. He was instrumental in form
ing a farmers cooperative elevator
at Canton S. D., an organization which
has made good and is still in exist
ence. In 1907, as stated above he
came to the Musselshell country and
located on his present ranch about
twelve miles north of Roundup.

HIGHEST AVERAGE OF ANY SALE THIS YEAR-reToN
COUNTY SALE COMES SECOND AVERAGE OF s1e2a

The sale Of state school lands held
at the court house in this city Tues.
day proved big success, 5.427.9O acres
being sold at total price OF $94,421.-
20, or an average of $17.4O per acre.
About sixty people were in attendance
at the sale and the bidding on
several of the tracts OF land offered
for sale was very spirited. Two
tracts in the extreme southwestern
part of the county near Seventynine
were especial favorites, one being bid

$500. 7,347.9O acres of land was Of

acres were sold. The sale was con-
Quoted by JOS. Oker, deputy register
of state lands, who was very much
pleased with the result of the first
sale of state lands to be held In this
county. The average price paid for
land, $17.40 per acre. is the highest
average of any sale held in the state
this year. The following are the aver
ages for some OF the counties of the
state in which sales have been held
this year:
Choteau. 1890: Ravalli, $11.95; Te-
ton, $163S; Cascade, $1,000; Hill,
$12.45.
Very few Of the tracts offered were
sold at the appraised value. The sale
shows that there is brisk demand
for farming lands in Musselshell coun-
ty, and the price received for the land
also sets new standard of value.
The land that brought the high figure
is dry farming land and not suscepti-
bic to irrigation. which In fact is the
case with nearly all the tracts sold.
The following is list of the tracts
sold, the appraised value thereof. the
price sold for, and the name of the
purchaser:

GEORGE OSBORNE
WEEDS MISS HlLGER
Beautiful Wedding at the HiIger Home
in leWistown-WilI Reside in
Chicago.

Miss Maude H. Hilger and George Fl.
Osborne were married last Thursday
evening at the Hilger home, corner OF
Seventh avenue and Broadway. With
the exception of few close friends
this was a family wedding. yet the
company was large one. Rev. E.
Wright officiated, the ceremony being
a beautiful one. Miss Elsie Hoben-
sack was the bridesmaid and Harold
Osborne best man.
The bride is the daughter of Hon.
David Hilger, president of the First
National bank, and Mrs. Christine Hill
GER who is the daughter of the late
James Fergus, for whom this county
was named. Mrs. Osborne was born in
this county, and except when away at
school has spent practically all of her
life here.
Mr.. Osborne was formerly account
ant for the Fergus company at Armells
and for the past few years has been
connected with Chicago banking and
bond house. The bride and groom will
spend short time on the formers
homestead and will then go to Chi
cago, which will be their future home.
Among those who came here for the
wedding were Nicholas Hilger, of Hell
ena. the patriarch Of Montana pio.
neers and grandfather of the BRIDE
Lewistown Argus.

eLENp,vE BRANCH TO BE BUILT
Rumor Again Has II That Cut OF to
Helena VIII be Constructed.

Rumors are again rife concerning
the probable construction of the long
talked of Glendivc-Iclena cutoff of
The Northern Pacific railway, says the
Dawson County Review. The North
ern Pacific will certainly get busy to
meet the entertainments Of its traffic
rivals in this great agricultural do
main, and it is predicted that this will
be one of the first lines built, and that
anoher will probably be branch line
from Intake or Stupek to Bloomfield.
With Great Northern and 500 lines
now going across the northern part OF
the county, all the big farming area OF
Dawson would be well supplied with
traffic facilities.
An erroneous impression has pre-
vailed to the effect that non-cOm-
mencement of the Glendive-Helene
cutoff was due to the fact that the
reconnaissance survey did not develop
feasible route. A prominent North
ern Pacific official absolutely denies
that statement, declaring that the
route established by preliminary sur
vey is completely feasible and devoid
of any serious drawbacks. Another
wcllknown official of the company is
quoted as saying that this line will be
built and in operation inside OF two
years.

ROUNDUP TO HAVE GYMNASIUM
Civic League Discusses Place for En-
tertainment and Training for
Young Men.

The Civic League held its regular
meeting Tuesday evening, at which
time the matter of starting a gymna-
sium for the young men of this city
was discussed and committee ap-
pointed to see what could be done in
this direction. The committee will
also confer and work in conjunction
with committee selected by the in
tersted young men of the city. 1t is
thought that arrangements will be
made to rent one of the store rooms
of the vacant Shaw building on Main
street, and steps taken to properly
furnish this room.
Roundup is sorely in need of some
place where the young men OF this
city can spend their idle evenings TO a
better advantage than heretofore. The
Civic Leagues interest in this matter
should meet the hearty approval of
tho people of this city, and they should
receive sufficient support to bring the
desired end about.

REPUBLICANS OPEN COUNTY CAM
PAIGN At MILESTONE LAST SATURDAY
HON. DAN slArToN, COL cRuLL
ING MEETING At MELsToNE-oTHER RALLIES AND
MOssElshElL WELL ATrENDED-MEETINc IN LAKE BASIN
SCHOOL HOUSE ToNtoHT-WILL COVER WEST END OF couN
TY NEXT

The Republican county campaign
was formally opened with big rally
at MelstOne last Saturday evening
when Hon. Dan w. Slayton, nominee
for state senator, Col. E. ]. Crull, can
didate for representative, and G. ].
Jeffries, candidate for county attorney,
addressed the people of that commun.
ity. The rally was held in the school
house which was filled to its capacity
many being compelled to stand. DR..
Hedges acted as chairman of the meet
ing and introduced the speakers. G.
j. Jeffries made very nice talk dwell
ing on local issues entirely and cover.
ing the candidates on the county tic
ket. He replied briefly to the argu-
ment advanced against him that he
is too young to hold the office of coun-
ty attorney, and from the way his re-
marks were received by the audience
one would judge that they were fully
convinced that he was capable and
qualified to look after the duties Of
that office to the entire satisfaction
of the taxpayers of the couny.
Dan SlayOn is still suffering from
his recent illness and was compelled
to speak resting against chair. He
made one of his heart-to-heart talks
that never fails to impress his hearers
with his sincerity. He devoted some
of his time to reviewing the work of
the last legislature. He also made
the declaration that If elected he would
always vote for that candidate for
United States Senator who received
the largest popular vote in the general
election.
Col. E. J. Crull, the Republican can
didate for representative, made bril-
liant talk that held the attention of the
audience to the end. He discussed
national issues in clear and concise
manner, attacking the Democratic nOm-
inee for president, and lightly rubbing
it in the third termers. Mr.. Crull also
went over the county ticket, showing
where the nominees of the Republican
party were in every instance worthy
of the support of the voters of the
county.
Many of the candidates on the Re-
publican ticket accompanied the speak
ers to Milestone. On Tuesday they
went to Lavina where Hon. E. D. Weed
and a number OF the state candida. 81,
conducted rally in the afternoon, a
fair representative audience being
present Wednesday evening a meet
ing was held at Gage, and last night
another rousing rally was held in
Musselshell. Tonight the speakers
will have a meeting in the Lake Basin
school house, and tomorrow night they
go to Ryegate. All of next week the
speakers as well as all of the cand1-
dates will cover the entire western
part of the county, holding meetings
at Belmont, Seventynine, Barber,
Rothiemay, Emory and Wheaton.

REPuBL|C'NSHAVE
R0uS|NC RALLY
HON. e. D. WEED TRAINS HEAVY
ARTILLERY ON HOT AIR
PARTY.

The political rally given by the Re-
publlcans at the Star theatre Tuesday
evening was without a doubt the most
interesting that has thus far been held
here by any OF the parties. Altho
there had been another political meet
ing the evening before, a good sized
crowd turned out to hear the speakers.
The audience followed the talks of
the speakers closely, and in marked
contrast to some of the other meetings
very few left the hall until the close of
the speaking.
Lewis Terwilliger was the first
speaker introduced by Col. E. ]. Crull,
Mr.. TerWilliger avoided politics, being
candidate for superintendent of
public instruction, which office he ar
gued should rightfully be taken out Of
politics. He devoted some Of his talk
to the text book graft, the fruits of
which he parents of the state are now
tasting. There has been a complete
change in the text books used by the
public schools of the state this year,
the reason for which is not apparent,
which is working hardship on those
who have children in school.
Charles Mccoy, republican candi-
date for state auditor, and L. l.. Gala
way, candidate for associate justice,
were also present and made short
addresses. Mr. Galloway reviewed
some of his work as iurist in the
state and his efforts to secure certain
legislation beneficial to the state
among which is included the law cover
ing water rights which he framed.
The principal speaker of the even
ing was Hon. E. d. Weed, of Helena
who is not candidate for office. Mr..
Weeds address was listened to with
rapt attention. He opened up a battery
of twelve-inch guns on the mistaken
policies of Democracy with such tell
ing effect that one Democrat in the
audience got riled and started to ask
the speaker some questions. Thereup-
on the speaker warmed up to his task

BULL MOOSE RALLY
Edwards and Everett Address People
Of Roundup Monday Evening.

The local Bull Moosers held a rally
in the Star theatre Monday evening
with Sen. Thos. Everett and Frank
Edwards as speakers. Mr.. Everett
devoted his time chiefly in Offering
an apology for the third term party
and in attacking the Amalgamated.
The Amalgamated was also Mr.. Ed
wards chief point of attack. He
quoted couple Of yards of figures
relating to freight rates and railroad
mileage and things of that sort, and
before he was fairly under way large
number Of the audience had left the
hall. During the meeting Senator
Dixon's name was mentioned once
after which the speaker paused for
applause. When the applause did
come it was practically confined to
those occupying the stage.

In 1908 when steps were taken tow
ard the establishment of an expert
mental station in this part of the state
the authorities of the agricultural col
lege at Bozeman decided to locate the
institution on the Olaf Jensvold farm
and appointed him manager and direct
or. The experimental station is now
a model institution and ia doing much
good toward the development of Mus.
selshell county. Every summer a
Farmers picnic is held at the station
at which time a public demonstration
is given, and field sports, races and
other amusements and entertainments
provided for the visitors. These
events have proved big success and
have grown into a permanent institu-
tiOn.
Mr.. Jcnsvold has always shown a
great deal of interest in good roads,
and being farmer and therefore fully
realizing the Importance thereof, his
election as member of the board of
county commissioners would mean a
substantial boost to the good road
movement in this county.
Olaf .Jensvold has always followed
the pursuit of agriculture along bust
nesslike and scientific lines, hence his
success. He is free from any outside
influ. aes and owes allegiance to no
clique or ring. If elected he will give
the taxpayers of Musselshell county a
safe. conservative and economical adj
ministration. and he will look after
