ing as attorneys is IF vital importance
People do not ordinarily demand an
inspection of the license of one who
proclaims himself an attorney at law;
they take it for granted, as they may
do, that he is what he assumes to be.
The law says who may and who may
not practice as an attorney; who may
and who may not assume to be such.
The people have right to presume
that the law in this respect is being
enforced; if it is not enforced, such
persons as entrust their business to
an unchallenged pretender are per-
mitted in matters of life, of liberty
and of property to lean upon broken
reed. For this reason it is universal
ly held that the practice of law is not
an inherent right but a privilege, sub
ject entirely to state control"

Washington, March ALI CONNER
cial intercourse by sea between Ger
many anr the outside world was de-
clared today prohibited by Great
Britain.
Identical notes presented by the
French and British ambassadors here
informed the United States govern
ment of this drastic step by the allies
in reply to Germany's war zone proc
lamation.
If this policy is enforced it will no
longer be possible to ship cotton,
manufactured articles and commodi
ties hitherto of non-contraband
character, from the United States to
Germany, directly or Indirectly, and
from the latter country the supply of
dye stuffs and other merchandise for
consumption in this country will be
cut off.
The impression was general in Off
cial quarters that a, strong protest
would be made against the action of
the allies, which was regarded as an
unprecedented step.

reported. E. G. Leonard presided and

complished by the Chamber.
Among thaose who spoke were c.
A. Thurston, president of the First

A meeting of the executive commit
tee of the body was arranged for last

COMING CITY ELECTION
TO BE PEACEFUL CONTEST

The electors of the City of Glendive
are notified that tomorrow is the last
day on which the registration books
will be open for the entry of their
names for the privilege of voting at
the city election on April 5th.
The usual elective Offices will be
voted on with the exception of Alder
men Larson and Rivenes, who hold
over from the past election.
Alderman Whetham has expressed
his intention of not entering the race
for another term, and if Ed. Haskell
of the Yellowston Garage decides to
file for the office before the closing
date, this coming Saturday, he will
no doubt be the next representative
of the first ward in this city.
It is definitely understood that the
present mayor, Thomas F. Hagan
cashier of the First National bank
will not run for Office again, and that
Henry Mullendore, who has recently
been approached on the matter, also
refuses TO consider the proposition.
DR.. A. A. Baker, therefore, remains
not only as the logical candidate for
the Office of mayor of Glendive, but
also the most acceptable one from
every viewpoint, whose name has so
far been advanced in this connection.
DR.. Baker, besides being a promin-
ent dentist is an officer in the State
Militia and served with commander
Dan ]. Donohue in the recent miners
trouble in Butte. He has acceptably
filled the Office Of alderman of the sec
ond ward for several terms and would
no doubt fill the position of mayor not
only with great credit to himself but
with profit to the people.

IF NOT PROSPERITY?
THEN WHAT is IT?

This is what prominent Gsendive
merchant was heard to say this marn-
ing on the railroad depot platform
when he saw an entire trainload of
Buick automobiles passing through
the yards on its way to Portland, Ore.
Not long ago trainload of Fords
was reported as having gone to the
west coast and another full trainload
of Franklins is expected to pass
through the city in few days for the
same destination.
It would seem from this and the
signed statements of such big firms as
the Overland-Wilys Automobile COM
pany, that such thing as hard times
talk and calamity bowling should be
tabooed by all sensible people and e
knocker who is heard to spread this
pessimistic chatter Immediately lock-
ed up as dangerous lunatic.
AS long as so many thousands Of
people in this country are able to buy
automobiles, which are being used
mainly for pleasure purposes and can
be considered luxury, there can be
no hard times in the true meaning Of
the word.
If the ordering of automobiles by
the trainload cannot be considered an
absolutely convincing indication Of
prosperity, then what can be?

BUILDING BUSINESS
is ON THE BOOM

AS an indication that the building
| business of Glendive is on the boom
and promises to open up this spring
as never before in the history of the
city, is shown by the many recent real
estate transactions recorded and the
number of residences that local con-
tractors are figuring on.
Fred Birch, the local contractor.
has bought from Wicks, Paige &
Lamb, Lots to 5, block 173 on the
South side, on which he will build
several modern houses this spring.
,,They will be sold on the monthly pay
ment plan.
He has also closed deal for the
old Methodist church property on the
South side and his family will immedi-
ately move into the old parsonage
where they will reside until the new
residences are built. Mrs. Helen Mix
has just purchased the property
where Mr.. Birch now resides.
The firm of Birch & Greb are now
figuring on six new residences, rang
ing from $4,000 to $3,500 for cost of
construction.
This firm, as we'll as two other con-
tracing concerns are now figuring
on the new addition to the Orpheum
theatre which will extend back fifty
feet-almost to the alley and furnish
a seating capacity of upwards of $50.

Shortly after midnight last Wed

way that the building and contents
were total loss.
Eight head of horses were in the

about $500; C. J. Smith lost one team

DEATHS
Heuser

The body of Charles F. Heuser,
who was suffocated in coal bunker
of transatlantic liner while laying
at dock in the Hoboken, N. J. ship
yards, on February Goth, was shipped
to Glendive last week.
After being prepared for burial at
Lowe Brothers Undertaking Parlors
the body was laid to rest in the city
cemetery on Sunday.
Mrs. Heuser has been almost seri-
ously affected over the tragis death
and is quite i'll in consequence. De-
ceased was 46 years of age and a man
of good habits.

new barn.
It was just by the merest chance
that the adjoining property Of Joseph
Sporel was saved, the heat at times
being so unbearable as to prevent the
volunteers from getting anywhere
near the blaze with water.
It has been limited about that the
fire was of incendiary origin, Mr.. Veg
geser himself making open accusa-
tions in his nervous, unsettled condi-
ton. No complaints, however, have
as yet been made to the county Of
ficials and until this is done, there
will be no investigation of the implied
charges.
This conflagration will no doubt be
the means of pointing out to the peo-
pie of Stipek-better by far than any
editorials of ours-the wisdom of i'm
mediately arranging for some ade-
quate fire protection in the Wheat
City.

RECORD PRICE PAID FOR WOOL

Dillon, Mont, March Three clips
of wool have sold here for 26h cents
a pound-the record price.
The clips weighed 272,0O0 pounds.
They brought the owners $72,0S0-
just $4,000 more than the same
amount of wool would have brought
had it been sold at the average price
of wool during the sixteen years OF
protection.
Had the clips been sold at the
average price during the protection
years, they would have brought
$44,SOO instead of $72,080.
These clips belonged to E. o. Sell
way, who had 125,0O0 pounds; Poin-
dexter & Orr, $1,000 pounds and the
Cornell clip of 10000 pounds. Larry
Holden bought the wool for Dewey
Gould & Co. of Boston.
Wool Firmly Held
Advises here are to the effect that
eastern markets are quiet on account
of lack of supplies. What little wool
remains is being firmly held. Ohio
three-eights blood has been sold at
36 cents, which corresponds to 32
cents for territory.
The National Wool Warehouse &
Storage Company has sent out letters
and information during the last week
which encourages the growers to hold
their fleeces.
