Notes From Two Rivers.

Last Sunday evening the former
companions and schoolmates of United
States Senator Thomas J. Walsh of
Montana, gathered at Hotel Hamilton
to greet him and do him honor. Mr.
Walsh and his daughter Genevieve who
were on their way to Washington ar
rived here in the afternoon and paid
brief visits to numerous friends of the
Walsh family who were early settlers
here. Nearly fifty former associates
of the Senator and business men were
present at the banquet that was held in
his honor.
Two Rivers citizens feel proud of
Senator Walsh. No other former citi-
zen has ever held such high office.
Senator Walsh was born at Two
Rivers, in June, 1859. At 16 he was
graduated from the high school, and
two years later received life state
certificate. He taught school for three
| years, and then entered the University
of Wisconsin, from which he was grad
uated in 1884. From Wisconsin he went
to Redfield, S. d., practcing law there
for six years, until he removed to Hell
ena where he has since resided.
While not millionaire, he has nc
cumulated an ample fortune which Il
invested principally in Montana land
and livestock. He has but one child,

Too True. Alas.

A newspaper that believes in "toot-
ing ones own horn," says: Editors
are born boosters. The other day an
editor was solicited to join lodge
and was handed a petition printed by
a supply house. He got dun from a
merchant in government stamped
envelope and written on a gargling oil
statement; he made a purchase at a
store and got a duplicate bill printed
in Chicago, and wrote check on a
bank printed in Denver. Ye Gods, how
can an editor be expected to join a
lodge and pay bills for such treatment
as that, and all the time tell the peo-
pie to trade at home? Ever think of
it? Editors have TO be born boosters,
prepared to live on dried herring and
stand for anything"

Calf Resembles a Bulldog.

A calf that closely resembles a
bulldog, when viewed from the
front, and looks like a prehistoric
beast when side view is taken,
has made its appearance in Mea-
dows and is proving more than
a nine-day wonder. Unfortunately,
the freak refused to live long,
but j. NJ. Wanemaker does not
intend to be classed as a nature
fakir when telling the story of
the queer calf, so he has had it
properly stuffed and will keep it
to prove. the truth OF his state
1nents. The calf was born a few
days ago. 1t has long hind legs,
snort front ones. The head of the
freak is out of all proportion to
the size of it's body. That it be-
longed to the feminine persuasion
is apparent from the fact that it
had three perfectly developed
tongues. One of the things which
gives it a strong resemblance to
the common bulldog is the fast
that it possesses flat nose and
an undershot jaw.

ABOLISH THE
LEGISLATURE
Governor or Kansas Recommends
State Commission Government

Governor Hodges of Kansas, dur
ing the closing days of the legisla-
ture, sent to that body message
urging the commission form OF
government for Kansas. He did
not send the message with any idea
that a bill covering it would be con-
sidered at the present session but
with the purpose of putting the pro-
position up to the members and to
the people of the state for their
consideration in the next two years.
His recommendation in brief are
as follows:
Abolish the legislature.
Establish state commission govern
ment.
Elect one or two commissioners
from each congressional district to
make the laws.
Make the governor an ex-officio
member of the commissioners.
Keep the commissioners at work
all the time.
Pay them salaries adequate for
the place.
Give them or g. year terms.
Make them subject to recall.
The result will be better laws,
greater economy, greater efficiency
quicker response to popular SEN
timent and direct responsibility for
acts or omissions.

According to the Madrid CORE
spondent OF the London Daily News,
the police have succeeded in discov-
ering the gang of swindlers res
ponsible for "the Spanish prisoner
frauds. The gang, which was adj
.nirably organized, began operations
eight years ago. The chief OF the
gang was Eustebio Rico. proprietor
of a house at Is Luciano street. He
was assisted principally by his brot-
her, his father-in-law, and his pri-
vate secretary, Guilermo San Juan.
Rico's house was specially built
for the purpose of fraud. 1t was
provided with false doors and secret
rooms, and so on, in order to baf-
file the police. Every day hundreds
of letters were dispatched to the
four corners of the earth, inviting
foreigners to lift the treasure hid
den somewhere by bankrupt pri-
soner in Madrid. The victims were
invited to telegraph to some bogus
address here. Then an outdoor agen
of the gang, Antonio Gallego Or
tega, former telegraph messenger,
was directed to bring them. The
above is given for what it is worth;
probably very little. It's dollars
to doughnuts that Spanish fraud
letters will not stop coming until
Uncle Sam refuses to receive mail
from Spain. That will make the
Spanish government come across"
all right. Many Emmett people have
received letters from this outfit
during the past year.
