ROADMAsTER SAYS
NO MORE SLIDES

Assistant Roadmaster Larson who
Is connected with the Great Nor
thern was in town Friday and in con-
versation stated that there would be
a large amount of work done in his
territory the coming summer consist
ing of balasting, re-laying steel, etc
He estimated that extra men to the
numbed of 1000 would be employed
throughout the summer between Cut
Bank and Troy and anticipated a
busy season.
Speaking of the prospects for
trouble from slides and high water
this spring. Mr.. Larson asserted that
he could safely say that nothing but
a heavy snow storm will again block
the traffic between Columbia Falls
and the summit, and this was not ex-
pected this late in the season. The
frost does not extend into the ground
over few inches, due to the hea-
w fall of snow in October, there
fore when the frost goes out the
mud will be ouly a few inches deep
and will not cause slides of any
consequence.
The work on the new hotel at
Midvale has started, the surveyors
being already On the ground laying
out the lines. This work calls for
extensive grading and filling, but
will be one of the finest examples
of architectur. yet undertaken in
the park.-Columbian.

a homestead in the Northfork coun-
try, twenty miles north of Columbia
Falls. Mr.. Volk states that the
land filed on is all meadow land, and
is some of the finest in the Flat

into that section it will no doubt be
one OF the most productive sections
in the valley. There are now about
sixty settlers there.

FOUR NEAR DEATH
When Gas From Coal Stove Escaped Into
Their Home.

Rutland. March 9-Mr. and Mrs,
Charles FREEDOM and two of their five
children were victims Of asphyxiation
Wednesday night at their home in city
park when the fumes from coal stove
in the kitchen so poisoned the atmos-
phere of bedroom which they occupied,
that Mrs FREEDOM and her daughters,
jeanette and baby, Katherine, have not
YET entirely recovered from the illness
resulting.
The parents and the two youngest
children sleep in this bedroom which
olens off OF he Kitchen where the stove
was left as usual on Wednesday night
when Mr.. FREEDOM retired In the early
morning he was awakened by the UNI
usual fumes and found Mrs FREEDOM UNI
conscious and the children partially so.
DIR. A. II. Bellerose was Immediately
called and they were soon improving
from the effects OF the poisonous gas.
Three older children, Harold Mar
garet and Francis, occupied other rooms,
where the gas did not penetrate. The
bedroom where the parents aud children
were made i'll by the gas was not ven
tlated and it is believed that the four
lives were saved only because the fam
lily burned coke in the stove instead
OF coal, this not causing such volume
of gas as coal would have made under
similar circumstances.

KNOX NOT INVITED.
Colombia Doesn't Want Secretary to
Visit II.

Washington, ID. c., March 9,-Oflicial
Washington is agog over the announce
ment Thursday night of Senior Roberto
MacDouall, charge d'afTaires of the re-
public of Colombia, that Secretary Knox
has not been invited to visit that coun-
try in his tour of South American re-
publies.
Senior Ospina, the recent ambassador
from the little republic, was withdrawn
short time ago, presumably because
he wrote personal note to the state
department advising that the visit of
the secretary to his country would be
"inopportune" on account of the alleged
failure of this government to arbitrate
the dispute relative to the boundary line
between Colombia and Panama. Inas-
much as his government recalled him
shortly after that incident, it was gem
orally thought that it disapproved his
action, and the state department took
the note as merely an expression of per-
sonal opinion on the part of Senior os-
pima.
1t seems n fact now that those per-
sens were correct who said that the
Colombian government in reality backed
its minister in his action, Senior 0spina
being willing to sacrifice his usefulness
in Washington to get the boundary
dispute prominently before the Amer
icar public and Congress. The state
ment given ont at the Colombian lega-
tion Thursday night follows.
"The charge d'affaires of Colombia
said tonight that he was authorized
by his government to state that Secre-
tary Knox has not been invited to visit
Colombia
Senior MacDoualls personal comment
on the incident was:
II am now in receipt of reply to
my inquiry. My home government
states fatty that no such invitation was
ever voluntarily extended to the secre-
tary of state, Philander Knox.
"The facts are these Secretary Knox
advised the Colombian government that
he intended making a visit to various
Central and South American nations.
among which Colombia would he one of

eminent replied what would otherwise
have been gross insult that he would
be welcomed by the Colombian govern
mtnt. There was no other reply pos
sihle among civilized nations.
This is the head and front of CO.
lombia's invitation. to wit: That when
Secretary Knox informed the Colombian
government that he was coming they
said, what they could not do other
wise than say, you are welcome
