versation with the Pioneer, that it
was the lack of fire protection as
much as anything which decided
MIR. Pablo to not rebuild. He
thinks that without a system of
water works to combat a fire
with, that no matter how much
of a fire proof building he
might build, recurrence of last
August's catastrophe would wipe
them out again. This is probably
true. The town needs a system
of water works and after dis
cussing the matter with num-
ber of the business men it seems
to be the general opinion that
they would much rather pay a
greater tax to maintain such a
system than to pay it to insurance
companies ! in premiums and
eventually take big losses. If
the matter of building a system
could be hurried along it would
be grand thing for Roman.

WILL QUIT BUSINESS
ON JANUARY FIRST

1t has been authoritively an
nounced that the firm Of Pablo
& Potvin will quit business in
Roman on January /. This course
has been decided upon by the
senior member Of the firm after
considerable hesitation. The fire
OF August last destroyed their
large stock of goods and the
building which has been accurnu-
lated and built during the past
two years and being without
insurance was practically total
loss. This loss was close $25, 600
and represented money invested
and made by the firm during the
time it has been in business here,
and not wishing to re-invest any
sum again NJ. Pablo has decided
to retire from active business in
Roman.
Mr.. Pablo is amply able, finan-
cially, to again build and restock
an equally large establishment
bat does nat seem inclined to do
SO.
Mr.. Potvin has not definitely
decided just what he will do, the
probabilities being he will re-
move from Roman. a fact which
many friends regret.

firm said the other day, in con-

TAFT ACCEPTS PROF FEE:SSORSH|P

President Taft has made ul
his mind to accept the proffer OF
the Kent professorship of law at
Yale and probably will take up
his duties at New Haven early in
the spring.
He will not be restricted
merely to lectures to Yale stud
ents but will be permitted to lee
ture, as he desires, in other law
schools Or upon the platform, or
to engage in any other occupa-
tion which he sees fit.
If the President had returned
to Cincinnati to resume law prac-
tice he felt that he would have
little opportunity for practice.
He felt that he could not appear
in cases before the United States
Supreme%c %courtmaa because he mad
appointed a majority of it's men,
bership.
He remembered w hen he
thought of the law, that he had
named many of the federal Judges
in Ohio before whom he might
have to argue cases, and he be-
lleved that about the only sort OF
practice which he could take up
would be international, and that
he regarded as uncertain.
At Yale the President will be
in surroundings dear to him and
in a position to engage in almost
any sort of business fitting for
an ex-President.
The analogy between the Yale
professorship and Grover Cleve-
lands relation with Princeton
appealed to Mr.. Taft strongly,
and when many of his close
friends and advisors wrote to
him approving his acceptance of
the chair at Yale, he decided
to take it. The President ex-
poets to spend several weeks
after March 18th in Augusta Ga,
where he passed two winter
vacations.

Married i'm St. Ignatius.

James Raymond and Miss
Agnes Morigeau were married in
the Catholic church at St. Igna-
titus last Friday and are in Mis-
souls this week enjoying the
honeymoon.
The bride is a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Antoine Morigeau and
has many friends among the old
timers Of the reservation, having
been born here. She attended
the Genoa, Nebr. Indian school
for several years and graduated
from that institution last year.
The groom is a young man
also q long resident of the Flat
head and has known the young
lady practically all her life.
They will make their home here.
Friends are preparing to extend
congratulations upon their return
home.

signers omitted the ages of thei1
children. On these grounds, the
claim was set UP that thL peti-
tlon is illegal. .
Mrs. Marshall, however, re.
fused to sustain the objection,
insisting that the question in
volved is too important for tech
nicalities to interfere.
''Those against a division of
the district then set up the
claim that the entire district
draws taxes from an assessment
OF somewhat over a million dol
lars and that of this over $780,
600 worth of property is located
in the district which the petit
TONERS seek to cut off.
Mrs. Marshall will not hand
down her decision for three or
four days. The petitioners have
decided to abide by Mrs. Mar
shall's decision and not appeal.
Under the law, an appeal goes to
the county commissioners. The
decision of the latter then is
final.
1T is said that the real power
behind the movement for division
is the Northern Pacific railway
company, which objects to pay
ing the 10 mill levy now assessed
against all property in the dis
trict. With the district divided
there would be no necessity for
a levy except a nominal one, and
the company would thus be re-
lleved of paying such a school
tax as is now assessed. That
would be nice for the railroad
but tough on the pupils of the
other sections of the reservation
and there are good many peo-
pie up this way who believe that
the railroad company is able to
stand the 10 mill levy, and much
more so than the settlers here
are able to pay a smaller amount.
1t is earnestly hoped that Mrs,
Marshall will deny the applica-
tion for division at this time.

D|SpLEASED WITH SEN.
T|NEL CHRISTMAS EDITION

The reservation people in gen.
eral are very much displeased
and not a little surprised at the
Christmas edition of the Missoula
Sentinel. That paper probably
sends more papers to Roman and
the other towns Of the reservation
than any other daily paper and
it was expected that some sort
of write up would be found in an
edition such as it was said would
be printed this year. But not a
word about the great Flathead
country can be found no matter
how thoroughly one migh t
search.
Their advertising solicitor met
with very good success, quite
number of the merchant and
business men placing ads. in the
paper no doubt not expecting
to receive much direct benefit
therefrom but anticipating a
write-up of the country which
might be of indirect benefit.
1t is more than likely the effect
will be felt before the year to
come is very old, and it will be
unless the memory of those who
are now angry suffer a relapse. |

TAKEN UNDER AMUSEMENT

Monday last, Dec. %, was the
date set for the hearing of the
petition filed by citizens living
near Arlee for a division of
school district No. %. A mum.
Der of reservation people were
on hand to advocate for and tc
object to the division. From Ro-
nan were D. N. Mason, one of
the trustees, besides DR.. Resner,
also of the board.
In speaking of this matter the
Missoula Sentinel of Monday
said:
AFTER spending all morning
listening to arguments, Mrs. Pearl
T. Marshall, county superinten-
dent of schools, took under ad-
visement the petition to divide
Arlee school district No. %. The
petition has been brought by
residents of Arlee who seek to
have the southern portion of the
district cut off and made into an
other district.
THE Arlee district which the
petitioners seek to divide takes
in the entire Flathcad reserva-
ton. 1t is believed to be the
largest school district in the
country, it's area being half the
size Of the state of Rhode Island.
J. M. Herzog, a carpenter and
contractor living at Arlee, repre-
sented the petitioners at the
hearing. He carried with him
statement signed by all the Pc
titioners, authorizing him to rep
resent them.
"Herzog argued that the Flat
head school district was origin
ally started by him and a num-
ber Of other Arlee residents.
When it first started it took in
but small portion Of the reser-
walton. Gradually more terri
tory was taken in until at pres
it covers the entire reservation.
According to Mr.. Herzog,
there was no trouble until the
reservation was thrown open to
settlement. Then the settlers
came into the district in droves,
outnumbeaing greatly the resi-
dents Of Arlee. AS a result, con-
troll of the destrict passed out of
the hands of the residents at
Arlee. The present board of
trustees, claimed Mr.. Herzog,
are all members living outside
the district, which the .Arlee
people are trying to create. Mr..
Herzog further claimed that al
though a great deal of money
spent in the schools comes from
taxes in Arlee, the latter place
derived no benefit, the board
spending nearly all the money on
the schools outside of Arlee.
George Beckwith of St. Igna-
titus, a member of the Arlee
school board, was the leader of
those who opposed a division.
Others who appeared with Mr..
Beckwitn included: S. R. Logan
of Arlee, Leon Long of Ravalli,
DR.. Resner of Roman, H. G. D.
Hall of Moiese, c. D. Harding of
Roman, J. W. Cernik of Roman
and W. H. Sabin of St. Ignatius. t
The first point raised by those t
division was that the '
petition was not properly drawn. I
1t was shown that under the
law, the petitioners must sign '
their names, those of their chill {
dren, together with the ages Of /
the latter. In the petition the a

NEW FOOD POSSIBILITY.

Eat sparrows; when boned, broileo

This Is the latest advice OF Uncle
Sam to help his nephews and nieces
reduce the high cost OF living.
The department OF agriculture has
issue comprehensive pamphlet on
the English sparrow, condemning him
as harmful pest, and concluding with
a number Of recipes for his prepara-
tion for the kitchen. Most Of the
pamphlet is devoted to demonstrating
the harmfulness Of sparrows and tell
ing how to kill them.
English sparrows," says the report.
ARE noisy. filthy and destructive. They
drive native birds from villages and
from homesteads. Though they are
occasionally valuable as destroyers OF
noxious insects. all things considered,
they do far more harm than good.
Practical methods of dealing with
them include destruction OF nests,
shooting. trapping and poisoning. or
these trapping Is unquestionably the
best. English sparrows are good to
eat and their use as food is recon-
mended because OF their nutritive val
ue and a. 4 means OF reducing their
numbers"
In specifying methods OF prepara-
ton for the kitchen, the bulletin gives
the following directtons for dres9inH
the little culprits:
Cut off the legs. the wings at the
outer joint and neck close to the body;
strip of the skin. beginning at the
neck; make cut through the body
wall extending from the neck along
the backbone till the ribs are severed.
then around between the legs to the
tail. and remove the viscera. Spar

STRONG PLEA FOR PARKWAY
Los Angeles Newspaper Condemns q
Proposed Plan as Not In Inter-
ests of Economy.

w. H. Humphreys Of the Los An
geles board of public works has gone
on record as favoring narrower drive
ways in strictly residential districts,
and would lessen the street width and
widen the parkways of many now ex-
istent. This from a purely economic
view OF the matter, says the Examiner
of that city. Narrow streets cost less
to build and less to maintain than
wide ones and when there are to be, or
are paved such ini,...i cost and up
keep is no small expense.
But there is another side to the
question: the esthetic view OF the
matter How may We have beautiful
streets with but narrow green rib
bon along each side from 1S to 38
inches wide? Such paucity of park
way does not In the least influence the
appearance of the street. All that may
be said for 1t is that street trees may
be planted therein, though they cam
not remain in vigorous health and
beauty except for their youthful years.
1t may be possible for tree to sur
vive for many years under such hard
conditions, but what about them in
80 or rs years, at the time when they
should be most impressive. The
trunks will then have filled any or.
binary parkway from curb to walk.
Shall We then cut them out or shall
We cut large half-circle out of the
cement sidewalk and also narrow the
driveway three or more feet on each
side by moving each curb toward the
middle Of the street? Would 1t not be
better to start right and have fine Wig
orous, healthy trees for all time and
rest assured Of their enduring cen
turtles, to the continued Identification
OF our city? When shall we correct
admittedly wrong conditions? Do 1t
now.

when art will make our streets as
beautiful as the woods and as elevat-

more to be done before we have beau

Straight streets in residence dis
tricts, especially among the hills, are
largely wrong, though II many were
contour lines we might easily endure
a few straight ones. In following a
straight street we are impressed with
its monotony except 1t be we'll planted

most constitutes a crime to cut cam

a source of regret to those of good

Nevertheless, we are progressing in
this respect, for many large subdi-
