CITY AND FEDERAL POLICE
CLASH IN CITY OF M|ssOULA

A merry row is on in Missoula
between the city and federal
officers. On Saturday last Po-
liceman Lease attempted to ar
rest a drunken Indian on the
depot platform when a federal
sleuth by the name of Oftedahl
interfered, whereupon another
city policeman came forward to
assist his comrade. At this
juncture Special Officers Eiklor
and Ramey and were assisted by
some say half a dozen other fed
eral officers. Guns were much
in evidence and blood was flow
ing freely. After the general
melee was over the drunken In
dian was forgotten and the fed
erals having overpowered the
city policeman and landed one of
them in Jail, it was up to the
city administration to make the
next move. Accordingly their
man was released and on Mon
day, at the instance of the city
attorney, warrants were issued
for Eiklor, Ramey and Oftedahl
charging them with interfering
with an officer.
The city of Missoula will be
represented by Attorneys Harry
II. Parsons and Judge Woody
and the case will be pushed to
the limit in order to determine
once and for all who is supreme
as far as police authority goes
inside the city limits.

CALIFORNIA LAND ACT
IS NOW IN EFFECT

The alien land act, the subject
of diplomatic interchanges be-
tween the United States and
Japan, and other bills passed by
the legislature, became effective
Saturday, Aug. 10. The alien
land act, as finally passed,
provides that aliens not eligible
to citizenship may have all prop
erty rights guaranteed to them
by existing treaties between the
United States and their native
countries, and in no other way,
and may, in addition, lease lands
for agricultural purposes for a
period of three years. The same
provisions are made for compan-
les in which the majority of
stockholders are such aliens, or
in which such aliens hold the
stock. The inheritance
OF land contrary to the provis-
ions of the act is prohibited, and
it is provided that the real prop
erty hereafter acquired in contra
vention to the act shall escheat
to the state.

Vernal Vale

"A party of friends and neigh
bors gathered at Vernal Vale the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. j. d.
Bowdish, Saturday, August 2, to
enjoy an old time barn dance.
This was the first barn dance
given ON the reservation. Every
thing was done in barn dance
style there was no first red ear
OF corn but the role was changed
often enough to keep everyone
busy. Mr.. Turnquist did some
fancy violin playing and Mr..
Moore some fancy clog dancing
topped off with the buck and
wing which amused the crowd
while supper was being cleared
away. The guests, about sixty in
all, departed for home at late
hour wishing for another barn
dance before the hay is stored
away and declaring this one to
be the Hit of the Season."

FOR SMALL FAVORS We
ARE TRULY THANKFUL

Il am in favor of an early de.
claratlon announcing the maxi
mum cost per acre of the Flat
head project and the approximate
acreage in each farm unit subject
to irrigation
This is the only positive state
ment the Roman Commercial Club
members were able to elicit from
Secretary Lane during his trip
over the reservation. That is,
which could be construed as a re-
ply to any Of the requests here
tofore made on the department
concerning the Flathead.
Should this announcement be
made at an early date it would
be of much benefit to the home
steaders who at the present time
have no knowledge as to the
probable cost of water nor the
probable number of acres each
have subject to such charges.
This information would settle
the question as to the amount of
the mortgage Uncle Sam holds on
every homestead under the pro-
Ject, and remove all doubts of
prospective purchasers as to be-
ing able to stand the expendi-
ture. 1t would establish values
and put the country on a sound
business basis.

-Donahey in Cleveland Plain Dealer.

This little prophecy should be
an incentive to all farmers
whether they are now marketing
hogs or not, to set aside part of
their time and land and get in
line for the good prices that are
to come.
Reliable information claims
that the shortage in the beef
supply is also going to be felt
among the ranks of the pork
producers within the next year.
1t is claimed that even those
who are raising hogs cannot fill
the great demand that will be
created.
Hogs can be grown with profit
on any farm, even where they
are given only a meager allow
ance. in feed and given the run
OF a good pasture. If pastured
on alfalfa the gains made will be
better and the profits correspond
ingly larger.

EVERYTHING S0.CALLED
IS NOT CONSERVATION

Secretary Lanes visit to Ro-
nan and the reservation last
Tuesday on a tour of inspection
makes his opinions and utter
ances at special interest, espec-
tally to the people of the west
and of this locality in particular.
His attitude on conversation is
OF as much concern as other pub
lie land questions and on this
subject the secretary says the
first thing he would like to do is
to get liberal appropriation
from congress for the purpose
OF buying a large supply of scis-
sors in order to cut the red tape
Everything is not conserva-
ton which is so-caIled, con-
tinues Secretary Lane. "There
are no questions involved which
cannot be solved by the applica-
ton OF common sense. The ma
ton has enormous resources in
coal, oil, in mineral deposits, in
water power sites, in forests, in
grazing land. These lands exist
not primarily for the purpose of
being surveyed, measured, re-
ported upon in dreary official
documents and fenced in by red
tape. They exist to be used.
My interest in them is human,
not geological. They will serve
a valuable purpose only if they
make the people happier, more
prosperous and contented. 1t
goes without saying that they
are not to be monopolized. My
will be to encourage
settlement and development in
the real sense of the term.'
Secretary Lane also expresses
his great interest in Alaska, the
future home of many million
American citizens and of many
new states. He says that it con-
,ains 60, 900, 900 acres of arabic
and, besides the immeasurable
:oal deposits. He favors the inn
Mediate building of railroads to
assist in the development of
Alaska and will recommend to
congress that the government

lion of a government railroad in
that territory.

medical treatment, the result of
playing with dynamite caps
which he had found along the
canal. With a hammer and a
rock he was preparing to make
the big noise and at the first
blow of the hammer the caps
exploded. His hands, face and
body was filled with the flying
particles. one lodging in the left

wounds and removed many of
the small pieces and with excep-
tion of the eye there will be no
serious results, and the Doctor

Market Outlook

Those in the business of fat
tening hogs for markets are
offering the prediction that in
October we will again have TO-
cent hogs, says the Chicago In
ter-Ocean. The fact that mar
kets have steadily advanced dur
ing the past few months seems
to be a good foundation on which
to base such a prediction.

FIRE DESTROYS
PABLO ICE HOUSE

About two o'clock Monda,
morning fire and smoke was dis
covered coming from the top OF
the Pablo ice house, in the real
and a little to the north of Mr.
Pablo's store, and immediatel,
adjoining the residence of Mr.
and Mrs. VIM. Engle. Billy
Downs and Tracey Hull were the
first to arrive and give the alarm,
Immediately warning the Engle
family. Ralph Mcbride noticed
the fire about the same time but
being farther away did not ar
rive until after the two former
had spread the alarm.
In a very short time fully
seventy-five men put in appear
ance and by hard work sue
ceeded in holding the fire to the
ice house, although a wash house
and wood shed belonging to Mr..
Engle stood only ten feet away
to the north, and warehouse of
Mr.. Pablo's not over eight feet
to the south. The warehouse
and Mr.. Engle's house were
swiftly cleared of their contents
and a rope was thrown around
the warehouse and some thirty
men pulled it over and away
from the burning ice house.
Mr.. Engle's we'll furnished an
abundance of water and by keep
ing his buildings thoroughly
soaked and covered with wet
carpets and bedding, with mater
ial assistance from the chemical
engine which was reloaded sew
eral times, the flames were con.
fined to one building. Luckily
a heavy rainfall commenced al
most simultaneously with the
fire and continued until the real
danger was practically over,
otherwise it is doubtful whether
the neighboring buildings would
have been saved. Mr.. Pablo's
ice house had a refrigerator room
built in the center of the build
and this was filled with canned
goods, meats, ETC., the loss of
which was complete. His loss
will exceed $500 with no insur-
ance. Considerable damage was
done to the contents Of the Engle
home in removing them, but this
loss is partly covered by insur-
ance.
How the fire originated is a
mystery and as this is the second
ire of this character in that
block within the past three
weeks and property owners are
commencing to believe they are
doomed.

lei, all opportunity was glVer
the Dixon people to say wha
they desired, and A. G.. Thomas
acted as their spokesman. Hi:
remarks were along the line Of
the other local speakers. Hon
A. j. Brewer was the last speak.
er of the day; and he handled
the subject matter of his re.
marks in a manner which show.
ed his entire familiarity with the
subject. He made it plain that
the people here, those who are
furnishing the money to de-
velop the farming lands of the
reservation, are in earnest about
wanting the water on all the
land, that they desire the vacant,
uncultivated and unimproved
Indian lands made available for
such things, and this desire is
not animated by altogether sell
fish motives. 1t is for the pHr-
pose of assisting the Indian as
much as themselves. After Mr..
Brewer had finished, the secre-
tary shook hands with many of
the assembled people, discussed
matters with others and embark
ed at once in the Case again for
st. Ignatius, where, upon their
arrival, dinner was served at
the Mission hotel. Here he met
many Indians, listened to their
complaints, talked with Father
De La Motto, whose knowledge
of Indian life and affairs on this
reservation is probably greater
than any other one person.
From St. Ignatius the party
went to Ravalli where they took
No. l, westbound, and the next
stop would be North Yakima,
where another reservation and
reclamation project will be WIS.,
tied.
During the trip to Roman the
secretary evidenced keen inter-
est in the reclamation project,
but made 1t very plain that this
was purely an Indian project and
that it was being constructed
with their money and for their
benefit. 1t was learned, how
ever, that the plans had been
in Washington for the
completion at once of the bitches
which are to furnish water to
he Valley View, Big Butte and
Noiese country. This latter
hitch to be undertaken at once,
water to be taken direct from
crow creek, without the aid of
reservoir, which will follow
ater, in hopes of having water
lvailable for that valley next
'ear. This was really the best
Information received during the
Whole trip. The other projects
will be let by contract just as
oon as advertisements for bids
an be made, work to commence
n the early spring.
There is considerable disap-
ointment among those who had
nticipated some assurance of
reforms asked for being
iven. In plain English it can
e said that there is nothing
oing." Those things which the {
eople here believe would solve (

administered in the future much !
1e same as in the past. This is j
