STRONG CANDIDATE FOR At
TORNEY.

One of the states brightest and
most promising young attorneys was
nominated by the republicans at the
primary election for the office of
prosecuting attorney of Shoshone
county In the person of Carlton Fox

coming member of the Shoshone
county bar while associated with the
late Henry P. Knight, and later with
A. H. Featherstone in the practice of
his profession in Wallace and In win
ming them demonstrated his ability
and fitness not only to represent the
interests Of individuals but of the
county and state. An honored and
useful career was predicted for Mr.
Fox several years ago by no less p
person than Senator Hepburn and
those predictions are rapidly being
fulfilled. BY schooling and experience
he has become well equipped for the
duties Of prosecuting attorney and his
election will mean that the interests
of every citizen Of the county will be
guarded with impartiality, fairness
and justice.

FEDERAL'S REPORT SHOWS BIG
EARNINGS FOR SEPTEMBER
Has $4,000 Left Of Profits After Pay.
ment Of misunderstanding Made
Good Showing.

The Morning. mine was the leading
dividend producer of the properties of
he Federal Mining & Smelling COM
pany in September according to the
official report for the month, which
has just been issued from the corpor-
atoms New York office.
The company's net earnings for the
first month of the new fiscal year were
1862, or approximately $4,000 in eX-
cess of the dividend requirements. The
profits were at the rate Of S1,051 900
for the year, or 81 per cent on the
preferred stock. About 100000 Of this
amount came from the Morning mine,
where. owing to improvements, the re-
covery from the ore mined was much
better than in previous months.
While the matter of increasing the
preferred stock dividend rate from 6
to per cent has been under considera
tion for some time, 1t is not regarded
as likely that the directors will auth
Orize the advance in disbursements
until 1t is demonstrated that the com.
pany can maintain the rate Of earn
ings established in September.

WALLACE HIGH TO PLAY
WARDNER. KELLOGG SATURDAY..
Local Team Will Hold Championship p
in County If Successful, Having
Won First Of Series.

If the Wallace High school team
wins the football game scheduled for
Saturday and again defeats the Ward
ner- Kellogg team, the championship
for the county school association for
1912 will rest with the local team.
There is a strong hope In the minds
of the Wallace boys that they will be
victors and that a third game will not
be necessary. This is based on the
fact that all the heavy and experience
ed players are in fine form. and that
their individual and team work have
improved rapidly under the rigid
coaching Of Mr. Utterback. The
practice games have shown marked
improvement and there is no doubt as
to the abundance of the essential ele-
ment Of determination.
The Twin City team Is a good one,
well balanced and trained. The Wal
lace bows admit that they had their
work laid out in the recent game and
expect hard battle. They have not
missed an opportunity for the hardest
kind of practice, and the gains made
in condition have given them much
announcement.

TO SECURE
TROUT FRY SUCCEED
NiNETYFlVE THOUSAND ARR
PLANTED IN STERAMS OF
THE COUNTY.
Nearly a Quarter Of a Million Have
Been Apportioned to Shoshone Dur
ing 1912 and More Have Been Or
dered Distributed.

With the distribution of 95,00t
trout fry. which arrived in Wallace
last Friday, the total received ant
placed in the streams of the county
during the year was brought up t,
100000 and the assistant chief gamt
warden, R. J. Hanlon, who brough'
the last consignment from the state
hatchery at Standpoint, gave out tn.
information that one more consign
ment Of $4,000 had been ordered fol
this county. This will probably ar.
rive before the end of the year. and
will give Shoshone a more liberal ap
portionment than it has received ir
any year in the past.
The Shoshone Rod and Gun club
deserves the credit for securing the
fry, for its members have been active
in looking after the interests of the
sportsmen in every way, and have
given special attention to keeping the
streams well stocked. The future OF
angling is assured for several years
to come.
The consignment of $4,000 received
Friday were distributed as follows:
In the North Fork, above Prichard
$4,000; in Pine creek, 10000, and In
the lakes and streams above Mullan
$4,000. Those given toe Pine creek
were planted by William Riggs while
Harry Ingals took charge of the 25,-
