LETTERS TO EDITOR
ARE you ONE?

Editor Day Book;-Millions believe
in Christ, but there are only few
isolated ones who follow Him.
Many more pray in His name that
they may prey upon their kind with
good excuse.
To serve civilization and the hui
man race one must first be able to
serve God and self to an extent of
demonstrating the traits and virtues
Commendable in man
Owe no man anything, and you will
be free to own yourself.
Inasmuch as charity begins at
home" it is well then to sweep be-
fOre=one's own door. ,..-

By the number of laws of a coun-
try may be determined it's virtues or
it's coTruptness.
OF all the judges in Christendom,
Jesus, the Christ, is still supreme, as
he not only culled the Ten Command
ments, abbreViating them by saying:
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, all thy mind and
all that is within thee" The second
is like unto it: "Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as myself" But He added
when speaking to his disciples: ga
new commandment I give unto you,
that ye love one another. HELEN.

mother at 1912 Udell street in In

The mother talked to Chief Of Po-
lice Goodwin over long distance tele-
phone today and told the police she
would send a ticket to Richmond for

lice would hold him here until the
ticket arrived.
The police did not believe the boys
story as he said he had slept on the

went through Indianapolis, therefore
accounting for the fact that he had
come to Richmond. He had a street

Montana at sixteen and a half. The
eastern markets are practically bare.
Prices here as high as importing cost
with some grades higher Manufac-
turers buying foreign freely, the ac-
count being the lack of domestic wool.
Probably not in twenty years has the
market been so we'll up. Foreign
markets are higher. About thirty
American buyers will leave in few
days for London sales. No doubt
London prices will be forced higher
through their efforts to obtain supplies
for use before western woods arrive.
We believe domestic clip will be
much less than reported size of last
clip. This fact alone justifies the
expectation Of higher prices than last
season.

Automobile Trail Blazing Associa'
tion Representative in City .

A. L. Meigs, representative of the
Automobile Trail Blazing Association
is in the city to-day on his way west.
The trail between New York and
Seattle snow being completed. The
methods by which the trail blazing is
done and the means by which the
traveller may easily find his way to all
points of the country are very unique.
The crew consists Of specially design
ed Bessmer trucks which serves as a
workshop during the day and a bed at
night. They carry nearly fifteen
hundred pounds Of paint which is used
in painting signs on the corner posts
on the trail. The code is quite simple
There are three letters R, s and X.
The r signifying turn to the right,
the letter I. directing the traveller to
turn to the left. The letter X is a
danger signal. It warns the traveller
that there are parts of the road close
ahead which must be gone over care
fully, so as to avoid accidents. Each
post is painted quite close to the
ground SO that the traveller at night
may easily discern it as he passes
along the highway. When a corner
post has painted upon it one white and
two red bands it signifies that the
rider or pedestrian should continue
straight ahead Glendive is on what
is termed the red trail. The red trail
extends from New York City to Seat
tie. South Of us on the Milwaukee
road from Aberdeen west to Terry the
trail is yellow. The red trail is
taken up at Terry and followed to
Seattle. The Association has, as we'll,
a blue trail from Chicago to San
Francisco which includes roads thru
illinois, Iowa and Nebraska and other
states in the west. The efficacy Of
this enterprise can he easily appreci-
ated. In a short time every state will

A mysterious tragedy occurred Sat
n;obt about the hour Of eleven.
ctoee, former employee OF
- Northern Pacific, was shot and
, , tho west end Of the road
,.;doe leading out of the city.
~ p Johnson says that he is the
,.s.Iant. Mrs. Steele who was with
,,,nson in buggy is said to have
,.,oa Johnson weapon with which
s,,o,a was killed. Ten minutes after
,bs tragedy occurred Officer White was
,t the side of the dying man. One
.,ond in the throat hindered him
from giving more than a few minutes
;,formation before he died. His first
,.o.oment vas that his wife killed
him and in the same breath he said !:
"yo il was Johnson that killed me. =
He, as best he could, gave Officer
White few instructions regarding
tbe whereabouts of his parents. The
hotv was reposed in the county morgue
and on Monday morning a secret in
ouest was held. A coroners jury re-
turned the verdict of justifiable homi-
eide. Johnson, who gave himself up
without any ado. has been set free.
It is quite likely that the mystery
which surrounds the tragedy will
make it necessary for the authorities
70 inquire more fully into the crime.
The remains Of the deceased have
