More Big Eggs

Mrs. c. w. Hollingsworth
brought to the Pioneer office or
Monday last three White Leg
horn eggs which so far are the
largest to be exhibited. The
three eggs weigh just nine
ounces, one of which weighs four
ounces even. These eggs are
apparently all single yolk eggs,
being unusually large as will be
observed. 1t has been stated
that White Leghorn eggs are
generally smaller than other
breeds of chickens lay, but Mrs.
Hollingsworth says this is proof
positive that thoroughbred White
Leghorns are the most profitable
to raise.

salary of $4,000 a year. The

Another Orchestra Concert

There will be another orches-
ira concert at the Methodist
church on Thursday evening
next, April 10, by Judges Con-
cert Orchestra and other local
talent. The proceeds go to the
Roman city band and the boys
would appreciate a good audi
ence. Some special music is be-
ing rehearsed and lovers of good
will enjoy the evening.

but that they scarcely expect to
obtain sixty. five per cent the
first time.
The law provides that thirty
days after petitions for the crea-
ton of new counties have been
filed with a board of county
commissioners that body must
verify them and see if it COM
plies with all the requirements
of the law. Providing they do,
it then becomes the mandatory
duty of the county board within
the next fourteen days to fix the
date for the special election to
decide the question. The elec-
ton cannot be held sooner than
ninety days from the time the
commissioners fix the date, nor
later than 120 days from such
date. This makes a minimum
of four and one-half months
from the time a petition is filed
until the election is held, and
when the time ordinarily requir-
ed for obtaining signatures is al
so considered, it means that to
create a new county requires the
better part of a year.

FUHRER NAMED FOR MAYOR

At the mass meeting called to
nominate a candidate for mayor,
held in the old Pioneer building
on Tuesday evening last, it de-
veloped into very tame affair.
The meeting was called to order
by Mayor Rathbone, and after
some preliminary work, in which
the mayor and |. M. Brandjord
were both elected as chairman
for the evening, both declining,
Prof. E. E. Healey was selected
and accepted the honor. F. ].
White was made secretary and
the meeting decided to nominate
a candidate, as the call merely
convened the meeting to discuss
the advisability of 50 doing.
Only one name was presented
to the meeting, that of DR.. John
E. Fuhrer, and he was nominat-
ed by acclamation. Upon being
called upon for a speech he
thanked the meeting and pledg-
ed himself to a square deal.
The Roman band rendered sew
eral selections of music, and it
was heard many times how we'll
the band is doing. There are
number Of trained musicians
among the membership and it is
confidently expected that before
the summer is over Roman will
have as good a band as any town
in Montana.
After the mass meeting ad-
journed, the Third ward voters
met and nominated an aldermanic
ticket. A. M. Thornburgh was
named as chairman and upon
calling for the presentation of
names to be voted for, Cash
Coulter, Stanley Scearce and JOS.
A. Lemire were placed in nomi-
nation. Mr.. Lemire promptly
declined the honor and Coulter
and Scarce were nominated by
acclamation.
This completed the naming of
ward tickets, as the Second ward
met last Friday evening and
named Abe Meilleur and Frank
Menager, while the First ward
met last Saturday evening and
named A. A. Dix and J. D. Glat- +.
hart.
The name of A. Sutherland
was placed before the mass meet
ing for mayor, by Stanley
Scarce, but Mr.. Sutherland
pleaded other business and very
gracefully declined.
From indications at this time
it looks like a very tame election,
there being no opposition to the
ticket above named. This will
probably result in a very light
vote being polled, as where there
is no great interest very few
turn out as a rule to vote.

The last legislature adopted a
.joint resolution protesting against
the manner in which the classifi-
cation and appraisement of lands
were being conducted on the
Flathead Indian reservation. The
resolution was sent to the secre-
tary Of the interior, and a reply
has been received from Assist
ant Secretary Lewis C. Suylin
by Secretary of State Anderson.
In his letter Mr.. Suylin details
at length the proceedings in con-
nection with the opening of the
reservation. He points out that
under the law the original ap-
praisement commission was fore
ed to disband one year after it's
organization, but before it had
finished it's work.
1T will, therefore, be seen,"
he continues, that there is no
authority of law for allowing en-
tries on the unclassified and un-
appraised area within the reser-
yation nor on lands classified as
timber.
Notwithstanding the rejec-
ton of applications of prospec-
tive settlers by the local land Of
ices at Missou]a and Kalis-
pell, ] am informed by the In
dian officer that a large number
of such persons remained on
tribal lands and placed improve
ments thereon, thereby compli-
eating the adjustment of allot-
ments required by reason of GER
7ain conflicts with power and
reservoir sites"
The work. continues the
letter, has been greatly handi-
capped owing to numerous ap-
peals taken by applications for
lands classified as timber and
asking for denominations, thus
aecessitating additional work by
The commission.
The Indian office advises that
his work will be resumed just
rs soon as field conditions per-
NIT, and will be carried on with
q view to completing the same
at the earliest practicable date"

Nine new COUNTIES PRO.
POSED UNDER BR0WER BILL

There will be nothing hair
triggery or impulsive in the pro-
ceedings pending and about to
be started for the creation of
new counties in Montana. In
enacting the law providing a
general method, the Legislature
took good care to see the brakes
would always be on, with the re-
suit that even after the neces-
sary number of signers have
been obtained to petitions for
the creation of a county, not less
than four months must elapse
before the question is definitely
determined, says the Helena
Record.
Nine new counties are on the
boards at the present time, ac-
cording to the best obtainable
information. Richland, out of
portions of Dawson and Custer
counties; Pondera out of Teton,
in the Waller country; Wheat
land, out of portions of Fergus,
Meagher and Sweetgrass coun-
ties; Phillips out of the eastern
half of Blaine, and the western
half of Valley counties; O'Fal-
lon, out of the northeastern part
of Custer county; Lake out of
portions of Flathead, Missoula
and Sanders counties; another
county, with Three Forks as the
county seat out of portions of
Gallatin, jefferson and Madison,
and another county with Angus
ia as the county seat out of por.
tions of Teton, Cascade, and
Lewis and Clark.
An election has been ordered
on Richland county early in May.
The advocates of the new divi-
sion confess they expect to see
it beaten. Immediately proceed
ings will be started anew, and
this second time the creation of
the county will carry, assert it's
advocates.
1t will be defeated the first
time, it is explained, because the
election will be held under the
provisions of the law before it
was amended by the Thirteenth
assembly, the date of the elec-
ton having been ordered before
the amendments became effec-
tive which among other things
reduce from sixty-fve to fifty
one per cent the proportion of
the total vote necessary for the
creation of a county. Richland
advocates explain they will not
have any difficulty to obtain fifty
one per cent the second time,

GOFF BUILDING
Defeat Scholastics in al Seven
Inning Game at Union
Park.

The Golf building team playing UNI
der Captain Joe Carduff. defeated the
Scholastics with Captain AL. Walms-
ley pitching in seven inning game
at Union Park Tuesday evening by a
score of to 3.
The game was not started on sched-
ule time as the Scholastics reported
with only eight men, After fifteen
minutes waiting and five minutes to
argue the question they violated a
league rule by plying Carl Cuppett,
a member of the Bowlers team, y in
right field. After tits was settled the
matter of jan umpire was, the next
trouble as none appeared to officiate
in the game. Ankron, member of the
Goff building team. was pressed into
service and the game started. The
Scholastics, although agreeing to
Ankron umpiring the game, objected
to every decision and delayed the
game by arguings ~
The seholastics scored their runs
in the second and third inning when
Lowe was hit for six safe hits, netting
three runs. In the other five innings
Lowe held the schoIastics hitless and
struck out nine men.
The Goff Building scored one in
the second on singles by Moran and
Quinn and a double by Killeen. An
other came ia the third when H. Car
duff led offswith double and scored
on J. carduff's. single. The big inn
| ming was the fourth. The Golf Build
ing scored four runs on singles by ]
Carduff, Quinn, Morrison and doubles
by stutler and Lowe. The Cor Build
ing's last score came in the fifth when
McAndrew tripled and after the next
two mem famed the breeze he stole
home while Walmsley was winding
up. The play was close at the plate
but the umpire called him safe.
Captain sackett, of the Golf Build
ing team, is i'll at his home and his
many friends hope he will soon be
able to return to his team as they
surely do need him. Several bone,
head plays were pulled off by his bunch
in the game last evening.
