Ben Clodfelter has whispered
it to the Pioneer Press that a
baseball team has been organized
in his bailiwick, to be known as
the Dryland Dreadnaughts. Ben
modestly asserts that this team
can come in any day and chalk
up a row of ciphers for the Cut
Bank aggregation.

Complains Bitterly

A farmer who is known fol-
the excellent product of butter
ne markets came to Cut Bank
Monday with fourteen pounds
Of choice butter and after vain
attempt TO sell it was compelled
to take it back to his home. The
farmer in question called at this
office and complained bitterly
over his inability to find a mar
ket here for this small amount
of butter and wondered what
would happen if this section
ever became a real dairy sec
ton. The Pioneer Press is not
inclined to indulge in censure
over this incident, but it does
seem regrettable that it should
occur. Perhaps when the dairy
industry is greater than at pres
ent a good o 1tside market will
be developed and then there
will be no danger of inability of
marketing all the farm products
that can be produced hereaboutS.

Ask That Agent
Be Not Transfer'd.
Reservation People Want
Preseut Agent to
Remain

This week petitions were cir
culated at Browning at different
points or the Blackfeet asking
that Agent A. McFatridge be
retained at his present post of
duty.
A short time ago Agent Nc
Fatridge was rendered a promo
ton by the Interior Department
and was seriously considering
accepting same. The people of
the reservation learned of this
probable transfer of their popu-
lar and efficient Agent and they
at once got into communication
with Mr.. Merritt and Commis-
sioner Sells. The protest against
making the change was so en-
phatic that it is quite probable
Agent McFatridge will be pre-
vailed upon to remain.
About a year ago there devel-
oped little friction at Brown
ing in which the Agent was in
volved. This has died away
and this week one or two Of the
leaders of the opposition to his
administrative policies circulat-
ed petitions praying that he be
continued in his present posi-
ton.

Seizees All Stray
Stock on Reserve
Strict Patrol of the Indian
Country is Being
Maintained

The drastic action of the De-
partment of Indian Affairs in
seiz.ng all stray stock found on
the Blackfeet Reservation is
the topic of conversation among
stockmen hereabouts this week.
EARLY this week bands of
sheep belonging to D. A. Mac
Rae and A. Bonnet, found on
the reservation, were ordered
seized. The sheep were placed
in the custody of different ones
on the reservation while Agent
McFatridge awaited instructions
from the Department.
Wednesday morning it was
reported that couple of bands
belonging to Canadian flock
masters were seized up near the
boundary and placed incustody.
Horses, cattle and all livestock
found in the Indian country are
being taken up. The Pioneer
Press learns that a bunch OF
stock was seized some time ago
and that an assessment of $1
a head was levied. What as
sessment will be levied upon
the owners of the sheep bands
Is still to be determined, but ii
is thought that they will be
compelled to pay a heavy fine,
as it is said that there is astrong
sentiment against allowing them
to craze on a reservation.
1t was the supposltlon Of
many that after the lands were
allotted to reservationlWards they
would have the privilege OF
leasing their allotments for any
purpose but TINS does not ap'
pear to be the case.

Holiday Spirit is
Holding Full Sway
Carnival and the Baseball

Big Crowds

A holiday spirit has prevailed
in Cut Bank this week. The
whistle of the little engine that
runs the merry-go-round, the
dulcet tones of the organ that
grlnds out popular and patriotic
airs, the nasal crying Of Darkers
at tvariouS booths, the air Of mys-
terry and wonder that hedges
the different show places on gay
broadway have been a strong
lure for the kids OF all sizes, ano
Of course the older folks have
TO go and see how much fun the
Kids are having, you know.

votees in this corner of the

day and took home nine Cut

over on Wednesday and captur-
ed the game on that day. Yes
terday a couple OF knights from
coonland were used as a battery

out even that did not break the
spell. Five umpires were usee

Buy Sherburne Line

The promoters of the plan to
connect the upper Cut Bank
river section with Cut Bank by
means of a phone exchange
met with the Sherburnes, who
own the ST Mary's International
line and tentative plans were
made for the purchase of this
line, so the Pioneer Press has
been informed. The up-rlver
ranchers in the event the deal is
consummated, will extend this
line to Cut Bank, in accordance
with their previous plans.

Company Formed

We understand that the men
who were out prospecting for
oil the latter part of last week
have located on claims of the
richest kind. A company has
been formed and corporation
charter applied for to the secre-
tary of the state. The capital
stock of the new oil company
is to be one million dollars paid
in. Already stocks are soaring
and it certainly looks good for
some of our local townsmen.
We have not yet learned the
names of the officers but it is
understood there is quite a fight
on for the presidency.-Sweet
Grass Advocate.

Rich Oil Finds

Residents of Sweet Grass who
called on the Pioneer Press
while in the city report that the
gas and oil boom in that section
has everything else backed off
the boards. In the West Butte
section, east of Sweet Grass, oil
seepages have been discovered
on the surface and experts de-
clare that it is of the very finest
quality. Gas has been encount-
cred in a number Of places.
Eight large drilling outfits have
large drillings have been shipped
into Sweet Grass within short
time and a number of Canadian
and English capitalists are look
ing over the prospects now.
They stated that the entire
West Butte section had been
staked out for oil claims. Dur
ing the past week the town OF
Sweet Grass has been almost
deserted, so interested were its
citizens in the oil developments
east of that town.
