RECLAMATION FIGURES

Helena last week disclosed some
statistics which will be of value
to the settlers on the Flathead,
which it has not been possible to
secure heretofore The estimate
given out by Engineer Savage as
to the probable cost will be re-
ceived by the settlers with con-
siderable pleasure as it gives
them some basis upon which to
calculate the ultimate cost to
them of the water on their land.
1t will be of value to intending
or contemplating purchasers of
land here, which facts they have
been unable to secure heretofore.
During the past eighteen
months many inquiries have been
made as to what the water
charges per acre would be and
to each and every inquiry there
was but one answer: No one
knows, or if they do will not
tell" 1t was and is a very un-
satisfactory answer to give men
who had journeyed into the
country to make investments,
and who were enough interested
to look up tracts of land which
would suit them. They have
nearly all gone away disappointed
at not being able to determine
what the land would cost them
should they buy it. No other
section of country has been SIM
ilarly situated and now that it
can be said with authority that
the engineer in charge computes
the cost at $35 per acre, it will
be of value to the people who
have land here for sale and to
intending purchasers as we'll.
Should these figures prove cor
rect, and there is no good reason
why the cost should be in excess
Of that amount per acre, it will
not be so high as to prevent peo-
pie investing in the land and will
bring into the country many peo-
pie who have the means to go
ahead and improve the country
faster and better than the same
is now being accomplished. 1t
requires much labor and more
capital than is generally sup
posed to Wrest virgin prairie
from the wilderness and convert
it into a profitable agricultural
country. The Flathead is no ex-
ception to the rule; the task here
is accompanied by all the hard
ships of other homestead coun-
tries. The first settlers, as a
rule, are not those who reap the
benefit from the energy expended
in opening up the country, as
they are usually of limited means
and cannot hold on until the de-
velopment which makes their
lands valuable has been accom-
plished. They are forced to give
way to the man who is better
able to finance the work. He in
turn also disappears, and it is
the one who after several changes
in ownership finally reap the
benefit. 1t looks like history is
going to repeat itself here.
Another statement which is en-
CT uraging is that the power to
be produced on the Flathead
river has not been abandoned as
has been reported. 1t would be
d crime to allow the 200. 900
horse power capable of develol :
ment to be allowed to remain
dormant and nothing good come
of it. That is enough energy to
make a whole state wealthy in
power alone, and with the de-
mand so great as at the present
time, it should be in actual use
every day. It's development
would be an inducement to the
establishment of factories enough
along the Flathead river to sup
ply the entire western section OF

 IN TWENTY YEARS
Shaw Lady Looks Younger Instead of
 Cider With Lapse of Time.

Shaw, Miss.-Mrs. V. N. Smith, of l this city makes an interesting state ment of her experiences as follows: "T'wenty-n years ago I contracted serious form of womanly trouble. We called in our family physician, ed to do no good. It went on into other bad troubles, and I commenced taking all kinds of medicines to see if I could get relief, but to no avail.
 I suffered with that trouble up until eleven years ago, when I read about Cardui, the woman's tonic, and bought Q full treatment. 1t relieved me at once, and after taking the full treat ment, I am now well and stout.
 I sent my brother, whom I had not seen in twenty years, one Of my pho tographs, and he wrote me that I looked younger then when he last saw me-"
 For more than 50 years, Cardui has been relieving women's sufferings. and building weak women up to health and strength. No other tonic gives the same results as Cardui. No other wo- mans medicine has the long record of success in treating cases of womanly weakness and disease.
 Cardui will surely help you.
 Try it.

MITCHELL WILL BE NEXT MAYOR Fusion Ticket Looks Like Certain Winner Over
 Tananany Today
NO TAMMANY MONEY
SuE2er Also a Strong Favorite In the Rettin@-ist0r Bets
 $l90,1GG.

New York. Nov. 3 3.-Conseryative estimates of the result of tomorrow s mayorality election based on polls of the five burroughs are that Mitchell. the Fusion candidate. will carry the city by from 50,C0O to 75,000. The other Fussion nominees on the city ticket will, it is expected, be swept into office by the ahti-Tammany wave
 An indication of Tammany's lack of confidence in the result of tomor- rows vote was the light betting in the Wall street district today. Odds oa Mitchell were stretched 10 four to one and some small bets were made at four and oae-half to one and five 10 one. The largest bet recordgd was $S,000 to $2,733. One bet of $50 to $500 that Sulzer would not be elected to the assembly was record ed.
 The total amount wagered during the day was estimated at $1o0,0o. FincentAstor was said to be heavy packer of Mitchell.
 The weather forecast indicates partly cloudy, but warmer weather, so it is expected that a heavy vote will be cast. In anticipation of an attempt by Tammans to vote, thous- ands of floaters and regeaters who are said to have been oolonized in various sections of the city, several hundred warrants have been prepared Iy the District Attorneys office.
