GROWERS SHOULD
HOLD FOR 20 CENTS

Growers of Montana should
hold their wool until they are Of.
fered at least 20 cents per pound
for it, is substantially the advice
+of VIM. Rae jr., of Billings. Mr.,
Rea is one Of the largest flock,
masters of Montana and is at
present wintering 100000. wooly
backs. He says that there is a
shortage Of the commodity and
that as the big eastern buyers can
not purchase a supply from abroad
they are compelled to depend up
on the west for it. He calls at
tention to the fact that most Of
the southern wool has been con
tracted foratI6 to 18 cents and
that the Montana product is al
ways worth from two to three cents
more than southern wool.

OPPOSITION MAY

Secretary Fisher OF Washington,
has supplemented his oral testi-
nieny given before the house pub,
lic lands committee against the
Borah-Jones bill to reduce the
term OF homestead entry to- three
years, by q written report which
IN part lecites that the proposed
bill. if passed, would lead to sum
mer excursions on the part of those
who desire lands for speculative
purposes and not for lands upon
which to build homes. Bonafide
SETTLERS would suffer if the bill
should become law for the land
he seeks would be taken up by a
Especulator to whom the settler
would have to pay money, either
lin purchase of land when patented
or in securing abandonment of the
Eelaim SO that he might file on it"
The opposition of Secretary
p Fisher, il i believed, lie 90, will serve to
prevent the bill from passing the

OLDEST RAILROAD
CHANGES TITLE

1t is reported, and on what rail.
way men consider good authority,
that the Northern Pacific will
within short time pass from the
railway map, or that that title will
pass from the railroad vocabulary.
and that in it's place will come. the
Northwestern Pacific In other
words the great transcontinental
railway system, planned and exc
cuted by Henry Willard, the great
German financier, after having
passed through every stage o1
financial disaster until it was
finally brought to the front and
placed ON safe financial basis by
G. S. Mellen and then by How ard
Elliott, will pass out of existence
in name only. r."
Strange as it may seem, this
story did not eminate from the
switch shanty," the source of
most of the useful information re-
garding the changes in railway
management, but comes direct
from bulletins said. to have been
issued by the Northern Pacific or
dering that after certain date
all business for the Northern Pa
cific will be accepted for the
Northwestern Pacific
If such is the case it is probably
but the carrying out of compact
entered into between the two roads
at the time the Northern Pacific
presumably fell heir to the inter
ests of Jim Hill in the Northern
Pacific. ~.

DONALD THOMPSON
PASSES BEYOND.

Donald Thompson, our deceased
brother, was born at Markham
Ontario, Jan. II, 1886, and passed
from this life Feb. II, 1912, a
1925 p. M, aged 76 years and ont
month. His bovhood days were
spent at Guelph, Ontario. Here
he met Victoria Husband who wa.
to become his devoted wife. The
marriage was solemnized at the
Niagara Falls July "a, '62, but the
first year Of their married life was
spent at Guelph, where their
daughter, Lillian, was born.
In 1868 they left Guelph, to
make their home in New York
City. While there the deceased
was in the employ of leather es-
tablishment, binding and finishing
leather. Here a son was born and
buried.
After some years they moved ia
n F4A.
Illinois where Mr.. Thompson was
in the employ If the Baltimore 8
Ohio railway company. Here too,
a son was born, whose life was but
for few brief days. Percy Err
nest Thomas was also born at
Pana, Illinois.
In 1889 the family moved to
North Dakota, from which state
they came to Harlowton, Mont,
in the fall of 1910. ."""-
Upon reaching Harlowton Mr..
r.
and Mrs. Thompson united with
the Wilson Memorial church. The
deceased had been loyal member
of the Methodist. church for forty
five years, and a Mason for forty
years.
He leaves d wife, a son and a
daughter, besides many relatives
and a host of friends to bemOan
the vacant chair. Yet the effects
of that cheerful companion, that
effectionate father, that Christian |
friend are not lost. Happy is his
memory, bright was his hope. |
Like the last autumn leaf it was
his lot to see the friends of former
years 60, one by one, to their eter-
nal resting place, then loosing his
hold to mortal life he gleefully,
joyfully joined the ranks Of those
forever around the throne of God.
They rest from their labors. Their
works do follow them.
