Milwaukee May Build North.

ST. PAUL, March 29.-According
to information received here from New
York, the Chicago, Milwaukee &
Puget Sound railway, the Pacific coast
extension of the St. Paul, is consider
ring plans for building q line from
Butte, Mont, through the Flathead
valley into Canada. The proposed
line, it is stated, has already been
surveyed, but no definite time has been
announced for the beginning of the
work.
The St. Paul has valuable coal de.
posits just across the line in Canada.
which is assigned as q reason for
building the proposed line. The road
would be within easy reach of Regina
and Calgary from the coal fields, and
would also benefit the state of Mon
tana. The directors Of the Puge,
Sound are said to have also decided
informally or the building OF an ex'
tension in Vancouver, British Colum'
bia, with q view of reaching that port
soon after the opening Of the Panama
canal.

lots containing the names of all the
aspirsnts for nomin atone by each OF
the parties. Retiring to the voting
booth he will select which ever ticket
be wishes and vote for whoever he
pleases. Under THE law each OF the
parties will hold state conventions
composed of the party nominees and
committeeman, whose sole business
will be to promulgate the party plat
forms. All nominations will be made
by direct vote of the people.
The second measure proposes q
stringent corrupt practices act, and
provides for furnishing Information to
voters, both as to candid ates and

pamphlets containing this information
will be mailed to everybody 10 the
state. The candidates unite to pay
the expense.

yesterday:

Eight men applied for the job soon
after the paper was on the street. The
first applicant was q little fellow and
| Mrs. Gillies sent him away. The Sec
ond, a big husky youth, said it would
be a pleasure to do the work for So.
Mrs. Gillies engaged him at once and
gave him Instructions. Her hesband
must not be permanently dis6gured or
disabled, but must be slapped, choked,
knocked down and rolled on the floor.
When Robert Bent Gillies, formerly
a water front broker, returned home
late in the afternoon, Mrs. Gillies and

MAY Amend Homestead Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The con.
ference committee on the Borah-Jones
three.year homestead bill, which will
adjust the difference between the SEN
ate and house bills, was appointed to-
day and Is a. announced yesterday, ex.
cept that Senator Chamberlain Of Ore
eon is named in place of Senator
Newlsnds.
Cham erlsin's appointment makes
it the more certain that Q satisfactory
bill will result. 1t was learned today
that an effort will be made in confer.
ence to insert q provision in the bill
giving the secretary of the interior
the right to eliminate from any
homestead land bordering on q stream
or lake that may be valuable as q
power site. II such a provision IL
adopted President Taft has informed
Senator Borah and others that he
will cancel every pending withdrawal
of public lands made for the purpose
OF protecting power sites. AS this
legislation will liberate several mil
lion acres of land and as very few
homesteads will embrace land,
valuable for power sites or be injur.
ed by this change, friends of the bill
are disposed to accept the amend men
and it probably will be adopted.

INITIATIVE LEGISLATION.

According to advices from Butte, pc.
titions for initiative legislation have
been signed by voters in Silver Bow
county to q number sufficient to make
them effective. and which will insure
the submission of certain proposed re.
form measures to popular vote at the
next general election. Similar petit
tions we're circulated in Chouteau
county and other parts Of Montana
some time ago, and we're signed by q
large number of citizens, irrespective
OF political affiliations.
In order to secure the submission oil
these proposed laws, it was eecessary
TO secure the signatures of eight pc,
cent of the Montana voters from a
least two.ffths of the counties. Thit
requirement, 1t is understood, hal
been fulfilled.
The fret of these laws provides TO,
party nominations by direct vote and
is designed to eliminate the abuses
that obtain under the present systen
OF packed caucuses, primaries ani
conventions. The law proposed TO,
Montana follows the Oregon direc
primary lew. excepting that the Wis
consin "closed system" is substituted
for the Oregon "open system." 1,

OFFICIAL PAPER OF cHoUTEAU COUNTY
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3. 1912.
WORK ON MILK RIVER.

Northern Montana residents who
anticipate benefit from the Milk river
irrigation project have been go often
disappointed by delay in the work of
construction, that they are not fully
satisfied with the announcement that
active oper atoms will be in progress
from now on. It is believed, however,
that the plans OF the reclamation SER
vice will be put into immediate effect,
the supervising engineer having been
instructed by the department to get
busy.
In q statement made to Helena ews-
papers, Mr.. Savage estimates that the
entire Milk river project will require
an expenditure of about s., 1000, 900.
The work involves the storage of va.
ter in the two St. Mary's lakes in the
northwestern corner of this state and
the diversion of the stored water from
the St. Mary's drainage basin, which
now discharges into the Hudson bay
to the Milk river drainage basin, by
q canal q miles long. The lands to
be irrigated are located between Havre
and the confluence Of the Milk river
with the Missouri river abont Is
miles east of Glasgow. Over $50, 600
acres in the Milk river valley will be
irrigatediby the waters to be gained
by the project. The entire tract to be
benefited by the construction of the
canal is traversed by the Great North
ern Railway company and great por-
tions OF it are composed of extremely
fertile soil.
"The total distance travelled by the
water from St. Mary's lakes to the
end of the canal below Glasgow" said
Mr.. Savage sis q little over 500 miles.
The project natur ally divides itself
into three grand divisions, extending
below Havre to the Dodson dam, with
division quarters at Chinook, is one.
The Malta division extending from
the Dodson dam to the Vandalia dam,
is another, and the main division
head quarters of the project. The
Glasgow division, as it ia known, ex-
tending from the Wand ALA dam to the
Missouri river, is the third. Glasgow
will be the head quarters of that divi.
sion.
"Drawings and specifications have
already been published and ADVERTISE
ment will immedi ately be made for the
construction of the fret division of
the Dodson north canal, and for the
waste water bitches under the first
unit of the Dodson south canal.
Drawings and specific ations are now
being completed and will be sent to
advertisement for the second unit
under the Dodson north canal, which
when completed will cover $4,000
acres.
IA board OF engineers will be con.
vened as soon as possible and the en-
cheering details of the entire Mill
river project considered and de,
finite conclusions reached and recon
mendations made regarding The
work of construction. Drawings aut
specifications for the St. Mary's stor
age system have been under way
throughout the winter at headquarterl
here. 1t is expected that ad vertise
ments for the bids on the construction
of this system willsbe made as soor
as the details have been passed on b
the board. of engineers, which will con
vene next month.
