that he could not make a better APP

Decrease of 100000 Head

Startling facts regarding the dc.
crease OF the cattle supply In the
United States are revealed In q re
port issued by the Department OF
Agriculture. The report shows that
the supply of cattle In the last year
has been the smallest In many years
and that It has a direct bearing on
the high cost OF living.
According to the heads Of large
packing interests IN Chicago, the de-
crease In the cattle supply is playing
a large part in the rise Of the price Of
meat and In the general cost Of meat
foodstuiYs. The increase, II Is assert.
ed, can be traced directly to the
breeder and the farmer, who, II Is de.
clared, have depleted their ranges Of
marketable cattle by the killing OF
calves for the market.
According TO the gov ernment re.
port. the total number OF cattle In
the United States on Jan. I was 3D.
O3O, 900, compared with 81 .2tiO 900 last
year, a decrease Of l,2.D,OOO, or 3.3
per cent. a most astonishing loss Is
shown In comparison with previous
years, there being u shortage Of about
1900, 900 ~ compared with 1908, due
mainly TO overmarkcting In the last
few years and the drought Of last
year. which forced an unusual mum.

Supplies OF hogs decreased 4,232 900,
or 81 per cent, a. compared with last

Get Warning From Home

According to the reports coming
into Washington, any democratic
senator who opposes the tariff bill
digs his own political grave, from
which there will be no resurrec-
ton; the two Louisiana senator's
possibly excepted. on account OF
the large sugar interests of that
state. The bill requires 49 sena-
torial votes to pass, and there are
81 democratic senator's; so that, if
the two Louisiana senator's desert
their party, there will still be 40
votes; and if one more deserts on
account of free wool, there will
then be tie, in which case vice
president Marshall will give the
deciding vote in favor of the bill.
However, the progressive repub-
licans can hardly refuse to support
the bill as decided improvement
on the existing tariff which they
have all bitterly denounced. There

100000 MORE GONE TO THE DEFINITION BOW vows
LIBBY TAKES TROY INTO CAMP 5---4

The first ball game of the season
to be pulled off on the local ground
was played last Sunday afternoon
between Troy and Libby. The
game was good one throughout
and resulted in win for Libby by
score of S to4 Both towns have
good teams, and very few errors
were recorded against either of
them; certainly none very glaring
or costly. Nc. P. Bailey acted as
umpire and filled the position with
credit to himself. When a player
started to kick, Mac would look at
him with frown, whereat the
belllgerent player would subside in
stanter. He has now proven his
ability as an umpire, and he can
have an umpire's job whenever he
gets tired of wrapping up groceries
lot hungry customers.
DR.. Jones pitched for the Libby
boys and Albert Leary worked on
the receiving end. Jones struck
out eight men, allowed very few
hits and only issued one pass.
Dug Woods pitched for the Troy
team; and though he pitched fairly
classy ball, the boys touched him
up for extra hits enough to win.
The game started off with Troy
at the bat. The first three batters
up picked single each, and it be-
gan to look as if the game was 60
ing to be farce. Several in the
crowd began TO lay money on Troy,
one man betting that Troy would
make 4 scores in the first inning.
Jones tightened up, after giving the
visitors that much encouragement,
and struck out the next three men,
retiring the side. 1t was the same
story for five innings; goose egg
tor Troy each time. Then they
garnered 5 runs in the sixth and
run in the eighth.
Libby started off with runs in

the first inning; then they took
a run in the fifth, sixth and sew
enth innings consecutively.
Ferd Bockman was depended on
to play, but did not arrive until
near the end of the game; he only
played one inning.
The Libby boys are a bunch o1
persistent knockers when it comes
to batting, and any pitcher looking
for chance to fatten his strike av-
erage had better fight shy of them.
Woods succeeded in striking out
but two men in the whole game.
He had good support, however; the
way Baker would scoop up the hot
ones at third and fire them over to
first was terrible to see.
Everything considered, it was a
splendid game; and the people of
Libby may be we'll satisfied if they
never see a worse one. Captain
Kuklinski has good team of fight
ers from the drop of the hat; they
will play with some fast company
this summer, but should be able to
bring home the major portion of
the honors.
We had intended publishing a

Libby VS.. Troy
On Local Grounds

The auditing committee reported
an audit of Ex-clerk Rices books.
The report was accepted.
Building Inspector Geo. Black
we'll presented his report which
was accepted In the year 1912
permits to the value of $4o,7o8
were issued, and up to May of
this year $y4,62o worth of permits
had been issued.
The bonds of banks holding city
funds were fixed at $1,000.
Henry Brink reported that he
had some money that he did not
know what to do with and the
council decided that it needed
sewer inspection fund. The city
attorney was instructed to draw up
resolution creating this fund.
The state officer in charge of
such affairs has written to the city
treasurer, asking for a report on
the fremen's disability fund. AS
there is no such fund. the council
decided that it would create one, so
that the treasurer might have some
thing to report on. The 6remens
disability fund, accordingly, became
a fact; and the clerk was instructed
to draw warrant on the Incident
al fund for $2I.73, the amount to be
placed in the new fund.
Alderman Blackwell asked for
leave of absence for 60 days. 1t
was granted by the council, with
the provision that he report all his
actions when he gets back.
The case of small pox in S. Libby
caused considerable discussion, and
it was decided that the health COM
mittee should be organized so that
this could be coped with. The
mayor appointed Messrs. Wells,
Bockman aud Baxter as health
committee; and the council ratified
the appointments.
The matter of moving the bell
1 4 -
quarters was brought up, and the
Chief of police was instructed to
call for bids and oversee the work.
The new city hall is about ready,
and the council will probably move
by the first of the month.

be held Tuesday night.
