"ToO MUCH HOME TALENT"

The United states bureau OF cdu-
cation has issued a bulletin on "too
much home talent" In the public
schools that should appeal TO the
people Of New Mexico where many
abuses have arisen from such policy
and whore bin Is pending In the
legislature To mako no one eligible

catlonal institution unless he shall
have been bona Gde resident Of New
Mexico for ut least five years.
The bulletin was written by Or.
Frank A. NANNY Of Baltimore, who
says
mo greater misfortune can come
TO any school system than to have n
steady nbrceding Of home talent. The
board Of education should insist upon
the selection Of at least one-third Of
the new teachers each year from out
side the city limits"
Discussing the local training
schools for teachers, the bulletin says
that they are disappearing because
boards Of education have found that
the compulsory selection Of teachers
from them works injury to the pub
lie schools. though the evil OF "in-
breeding Is being met in some sec
lions by rule that not more than
sixty per cent of the teachers can be
chosen from the local schools
In other words, schools become
stale unless new ideas are brought
into them continually, 1t is for that
reason that the annual meetings Of
the New Mexico Educational associa-
ton have proved of such benefit to the
teaching force Of this state, Men from
other states are brought 10 New
Mexico each year for the purpose Of
giving the teachers the latest infor-
nation regarding the conduct Of
schools, both as to teaching and dis
cipllne.

been a failure in that only approxi-
mately five hundred entrymen have
filed out of a possible six thousand on
the very fertile land of this Reserva-
ton, and,
WHEREAS, the increased size of
the unit of land has been no stimulus
to the number of settlers on the Res
ervation, and
WHEREAS, the hardships in the
settling of this Reservation imposed
by the present laws has caused set
tiers to seek other lands in the United
States public domain and in the fer
tile lands of the Dominion of Canada,
and
WHEREAS, the present settlers
upon the Fort Peck Reservation find
the burden of meeting their payments
under the present appraisment so
great that many of them are unable
to meet their payments thereon and
to support their families, let alone
improve their lands, and,
WHEREAS, the present method of
appraisment has been a loss to the
Indians, in that the lands have not
been settled and the settlers thereon
have from necessity become delin-
quent in their payments, all tending
towards the loss of anticipated funds
to the Indians, and, therefore,
BE 1T RESOLVED AND RESPEC.
TIVELY SUGGESTED TO THE
HONORABLE SECRETARY OF
THE INTERIOR AND THE CON-
GRESS OF THE UNITED STATES,
as follows, to-wit:
I. That the appraisement as made
of the and of the Fort Peck Reserva-
tion be removed and re-appraisment
be made in lieu thereof.
2. That the payments of the ap-
praised price of the land be extended
over period of ten years.
3. That all settlers who have filed
on 160-acre tracts be allowed to take
additional 160-acre tracts on the Res
ervation, although the same be not
contiguous as now required by the
homestead laws.
Respectfully submitted,
C. F. BLAICH, President.

BANKERS PRAISE GLASGOW

In the report on the trip of the
"Red Special" on which the New York
bankers journeyed to the convention
in Seattle in August, Glasgow comes
in for big boost for the entertain
ment given the bankers during their
short stay here.
The article gives few lines to the
train leaving St. Paul and stop at
Willmar, Minn., and then tells of their
experience here. 1t says:
"The next stop was Tuesday morn
ing at Glasgow, Montana, where the
Glasgow Commercial Club had made
special preparations to entertain the
tourists. Here again there was an au-
tomobile trip, to show the splendid
natural resources of the region, and
the local committee went so far as to
publish miniature newspaper called
"The Spieler," which described vari-
GUS points of interest on the trip and
told of Glasgow and Valley County,"

RUMOR UNFOUNDED

Recently numerous papers in Sheri-
dan county were heralding the fact
that the Fort Peck lands had been
thrown open to entry. There is moth
ing to this however, as the rumor
started over the fact that the land Of
flee had sent out notices in re the res
toration of certain lands coming un-
der the Fort Peck irrigation project,
off the reservation. These lands which
do not aggregate more than a section
or two had nothing to do with any,
thing on the reservation.
The local land office has received
many inquiries from people who
seemed to be under the impression
that the lands affected were on the
Fort Peck reservation.

LOOKING FOR OIL AND GAS
Plentywood Enthused Over Prospects
of Developing New Oil Field


The oil and gas bug has struck
Sheridan County. This information
was CLEANED from County Auditor J.
F. Redmond of Plentywood, who was
in the city several days this week
on business.
"People in the northern part of
Sheridan County are very enthusiastic
over the possibilities of striking gas
or OIL" said Mr.. Redmond, "and sew
eral experts are already on the ground
making careful investigation"
"One of these men, an expert geol-
ugist, who has been in all the oil
fields of the United States and Can
ada has gone over the ground thor
oughly, studying the lay of the land,
and he believes that the vein from
Calgary extends right through the
Plentywood country. AS soon as he
has made his examination and decided
where to sink the first we'll, drilling
operations will be begun, and several
drilling outfits are all ready to come
there and begin work.
"a company has been formed to
drill for oil and gas, of which Senator
F. G. Fishbeck is president, and stocl
is owned by hundreds of prominent
citizens in the county.
"From present indications gas can
be reached at a reasonable depth and
the tests so far have all been very
good for oil deposits.
"The crops around Plentywood are
the best ever harvested there and
grain is pouring into the elevators in
steady stream"

only a local freight did not slacken
his speed, expecting to make the

preaching the right Of way he paid no
attention to any train that might be
approaching, but was watching a
threshing outfit at work near the
road. When but few feet from the
tracks he saw the oncoming train and
put on the brakes, but 5hey failed TO

shot without giving my husband a
chance, as witnesses stated that at the
first shot his horse became startled
and at the second shot Long fell to
the ground.
"He was snotr in the back and d.
rectly under his arms, the bullet enter
ing one side and coming out on the
other. 1t was shown at the trial that
he must have had his arms in raised
position to be wounded there.
"This part of the story I learned at
the trial from Balls and Glenn Longs
statements.
"They say my husbands last words
were % Lord, dear God!' After the
shooting Ball said that he walked to
the body and as he couldn't find gun
on him (Long), Ball walked to the
house, put up his rifle and got re-
volver which he took out and put on
the body.
"Then Ball went up to Sandy Mar
tin and Billy Buzzard's place, but I
don't know what he wanted up there.
Then he went to Saco, where he
stayed for quite while and I met
him on the street one day and he
laughed at me.
"At first Ball had said that Glenn
Long had put the revolver on my hus-
bands body, but later Ball confessed
to having done it himself. Glenn
Long had gone out with Ball to meet
Long but had not taken part in the
shooting, and he was acquitted Oh the
charge of murder, when Ball took the
blame upon himself"
Among the character witnesses
from this side who were at the trial
were Sheriff C. w. Powell, Virgie Vau-
pei and Emil Lucht.

OLD SHOTGUN EXPLODES

An accidental shooting occurred at
Dodson Wednesday morning which re-
suited fatally for young man named
Pfife. With young companion, Pfife
had gone to an old bunkhouse to spend
the night and here they found an old
shotgun, and in fooling with it, the
weapon was discharged, the bullet en-
tering Pfife's body below the heart,
killing him instantly. ,Pfife had just
returned from the harvest fields of
North Dakota and was the only sup
port of a widowed mother.

MAY BAR FOOTBALL STAR.
Captain Scion of Minnesota Team Ac-
cused of Professionalism


cused of Professionalism
For playing professional baseball
the past summer with the Havre base
ball team, Captain Lorin Solon of the
University of Minnesota football team
will probably be suspended.
1t is claimed that Solon while Il.
Havre went by the name of Stone, and
it was when the Chicago baseball team
was on its way west, stopping at
Havre that one of the players saw
Stone or Solon. When asked why he
was up in the northwest he said he
was on his way to Glacier Park.
The information that Scion was
playing ball with Havre was sent to
the faculty at Minneapolis and result
ed in Prof. E. A. Harding visiting
several points in northern Montana in
vestigating the case.
Stone or Solon will be remembered
by local fans, as he caught for the
Havre team when they played here the
latter part Of August.
When E. A. Harding reached Havre
he found that in every picture taken
of the ball team, one face was always
missing, that of Catcher "Stone."
Havre baseball fans only smiled when
asked why it was that their catcher
would never consent to having his pic
ture taken. He was told that Stone
was very timid and did not like to get
before the camera.
According to Mr. Harding, Mime
