amounts to $76,669,55S. The railroad
valuation for Chouteau county is ST.
753, 200, making total assessment of
about $S,160,O00. The railroad assess
ment of Blaine county is $1,572,S5S,
and Hill county $2,294,643.
According to advices from Chinook,
the sale of state lands in Blaine coun-
ty was disappointment to state Of
ficials who expected a brisk demand
for the tracts that were listed for
sale. There were very few purchases,
most of the sales being at compar-
atively low figure. The top price was
$27 per acre for 107 acres of valley
land near Wagner that can be irri-
gated.
At a meeting of the Chouteau Coun-
ty Fair directors held last evening,
the three-days racing program was
practically arranged, and proposed
baseball tournament discussed. The
directors concluded to offer induce
ments for a good baseball game each
day. 1t is. proposed that the Fort
Benton and Highwood teams shall
play the first game; Big Sandy and
Geraldine on the second day; and
that the winners in these two games
shall play for the championship on
the third day.

Fort Benton Pioneer in Parade

One of the historic features in yes
terday's parade and one of the most
interesting was the old brass cannon
which did fine service in the early
days fighting the Indians at Fort Ben
ton. It rode on the hurricane deck
of a mule then and it rode in the
same way yesterday. w. o. Dexter
was it's custodian then and again yes
terday, says the Great Falls Tribune.
That cannon was first fired by Mr..
Dexter in this state in the year 1872
when the whites made a raid on the
Yankton Sioux Indians, and Mr.. Dex-
ter has kept it in all these years as a
souvenir of that fight.
Mr.. Dexter first came to Montana
in 1866, coming over land from St.
Cloud, Minn., to Helena where he first
located. Later he moved to Fort Ben
ton and is now the owner of consid-
cradle land in that locality.
The first white man met by DR..
w. w. VanOrsdel, Brother Van" in
this state was Mr.. Dexter and they
have been close friends ever since.
Mr.. Dexter was the first man to bring
a threshing machine into the state
and it's arrival met with great sur
prise on the part OF the people who
had never before seen an outfit of its
kind.

for Primary Voting

In the primary election to be held
on Tuesday, Aug. 25, person must
vote a straight party ticket-there
cannot be a split ticket voted in the
primary election, but in the general
election in November a man can vote
for any person he desires irrespective
of party. At the primary on entering
the polling booth the voter is given
four ballots containing the names of
all the candidates seeking nomination.
He selects the ballot he wishes to
vote and puts cross opposite the
name of the various candidates, and
on leaving the booth he returns to the
Judge of election the three ballots he
did not use, and he also turns in the
ballot marked for the persons on some
particular party ticket and sees that
the same is deposited in the ballot
box. The polls at the primary elec-
tion open at IL o'clock, noon, and
close at Z o'clock in the evening.
The necessary ballots, poll books,
tally sheets and other supplies are
being sent to judges of election in
each of the AZ precincts in Chouteau
county, who will also be provided
with copies of the new election laws.
The extent to which the voters will
take part in the election will be a
matter of general interest among ci:-
liens who favor the new plan of NOM
mating the party candidates.

regular patron of certain Berlin
wine shop. One day man and wife
came in and sat down at his tabIei
and presently Menzel noticed that the
woman was making fun of him.
Calmly he drew out his sketching
book, gazed at the woman awhile, a.
if to study her face for portrait, and
then commenced to draw. Her huS'
band Immediately took notice: Il for
bid you to draw a picture of my wife.
Stop it," he exclaimed, angrily.
Menzel made few finishing touches
and then passing the sketching book
over to the man, he inquired, with q
laugh, "Is that your wife?" He had
drawn a goose.-Youth's Companion
