laid up alone for two months in a
little cabin on Big Creek. about 80
miles north OF this city, suffering
with frozen feet.
With man named Mckay, Ford
left Columbia Falls in September and
headed north for the west branch Of
Big Creek, to run a line Of traps.
The men had just finished building
their cabins and had their traps set
when Ford went out to look over
the line. and was overtaken by the
first big snow storm in November.
He had no snow shoes. and was un-
able to make camp that night. It
turned bitter cold. and before he
could build a fire he had both
feet and hands frozen. But the next
day he managed to reach his cabin.
His partner started for town, and
Ford says he expected to be alright
In at least two weeks, and as he had
provisions to last longer than that
he felt safe.
Mckay never reached town, it is
said, and he is thought to have lost
his way in the snow and perished.
In the meantime Ford g foot swelled

had narrow escape from drowning.
He managed to get in nevertheless,
and called en- DR.. Houston. who
dressed his foot, and then with the
aid of cane, his snow shoes under
his arm, his foot bundled up to his
knee, and his clothes in tatters he
walked to Columbia Falls.

Never Too Old
 To Learn

Our people are learning every once in while that they can save money by trading at home. Just few days ago one of our best citizens came in and readily admitted that he had made a mistake in ordering wall pa per from a sample book house, but asked me to be as considerate with him as possible.
 He told me that the price offered was 50 and 20 per cent off list and of course looked attractive to him, but that he knew now that he would have saved time, worry and money in buy ing from me.
 We will not take the liberty to give the name, but are sure that the gen tleman would not hesitate to tell you just what he told me
 These kind of things happen to many of us, and the wise thing for the fellow who has not been caught, is to profit by the experience of the other fellow and buy your paper from us, where you run no risk in getting too much or not enough.
 We appreciate your trade.

The Weld county republican club

there was nothing strange in the
action OF the Weld county club in
yielding to the progressives in their
demand for . presidential prefer

The machine did not make the
fight that was expected, A. 1t was
realized that the sentiment was too
strong for the primary to be over

standpatters had stood pat. 1t was
apparent that there would have
been an open breach.
The hall was not large enough to
accommodate all who came. Many
stood inside the hall and others re-
mained in the hallway. President
v. T.. Keyes, in his opening address,
came out squarely for the primary
and OF the two score other speakers
there were but few who did not ad-
vocate the views Of the president OF
the club.
The meeting was we'll sprinkled
with progressives and when 1t was
evident that there was an over
whelming sentiment for the primary
no organized attempt was made to
defeat the wishes OF the majority.
No candidate for the nomination
for presidency on the republican
ticket was endorsed by the meeting.
This matter was not brought up
and probably will not be. A poll

president among the republicans is
about two to one in favor of Roose-
