THE THRICE.A.WEEK EDITION OF
THE NEW YORK WORLD.
Practically q Daily at the Price of q
Weekly. No Other Newspaper in
The World Gives So Much ut
So Low q Price.

There has never been a time when
a newspaper was more needed in the
household. TIE great war in Europe
has now entered it's second year,
with no promise of an end for a long
time. These are world shaking events
in which the United States, willing or
unwilling, has been compelled to take
a part. No intelligent person can
ignore such issues.
The presidential contest also will
soon be at hand. Already candidates
for the nomination are in the field,
and the campaign, owing to the ex-
traordinary character of the times,
will be of supreme interest. No 9TH
er newspaper will inform you with
the promptness and cheapness OF the
edition of the New
York World.

lar subscription price is only $1.O0
per year, and this pays for 1856 pa

All prophets agree that the session
of congress which began on Decem-
Der 9Th will be very long one. Not
the least potent reason for this belief
is the fact that SO many republican
members have speeches attacking the
democratic administration that they
desire to get into the record for cam
paign use. Apparently the idea has
never penetrated that these purely
partisan arrangements have practi-
cally nc effect upon the minds of the
voters.

THAT AWFUL ARRANGEMENT.

Republican leaders served notice

fashion. Natural, il. true, but what
for?
For the revision which gave the
country the first honest tariff it has
known in the last half century?
For the banking and currency act
which has abolished panics, STABILIZE

Will Build Court House

The county commissioners have
been in session this week at Ba-
ker and at this meeting it was
decided to build a Fallon County
court house at once. The law
specifies that expenditures for
this purpose shall be $4,000 or
less unless the county be bonded
by vote OF the people for a larger
fund and the commissioners de-
clded that the cost of the build
ing should be within this sum,
The site selected is in the Saw
age addition to the town of Bak-
er. 1t was stated in The Eagle
that cost of the lots would be
$1,000. This was the result of
transformation, however, as it
is learned that the site has been
donated.
The commissioners will recon-
vene Monday to complete their
monthly grist of work.

NUMBER 81
CAN NOT REFEREND
Present County Division Laws
Will Remain in Force

According to the latest infor-
nation from Helena the attempt
to initiate repeal of the Wells
and McCone county division laws
has failed. It was the intention
OF county divisionists who would
make the new law imperative in
order to create new counties in
Montana, to petition for refer
endum vote on the two new laws
regarding division of counties.
thereby putting the old law. un-
der which Fallon county was cre-
ated, back into force until the
next general election.
In order that the people may
vote upon a statute by referen-
dunn. it is required that the peti-
tions bear the signatures of five
per cent of the voters in two
fifths of the counties. The peti-
tions must be in within six months
after the close of the legislature,
which was last Saturday.
At the close of business Satur-
day at the Office of the Secretary
OF State, there were ii counties
with petitions on file. II were
were necessary. Monday two
more were received that had been
mailed within the time limit.
This left the divisionists just one
county short of the required num-
Der. Later it developed that the
petition from Hill county had
not been properly attested by
the county clerk and probably
would have been thrown out on
protest. On Tuesday, too late to
be filed, there were received Pc
titions from Madison, Richland
and Yellowstone counties.
Had the effort to referend been
successful it is likely the map of
Eastern Montana would have
again been changed; the Holt and
Union county propositions would
have been given a new lease of
life and possibly Fallon county
might have been divided.

MAKING MOST OF THE IRIS

Iris Of all plants is most Indifferent
to its surroundings, soil and environ
ment. With satisfactory attention it
gives wonderful results.
For German Iris, plant the roots
deeply; but the bulb should be COW
cred very lightly unless planting late
in the fall or very early in the spring,
when they should be planted about two
inches below the soil level. At other
times just barely cover them.
When hoeing in the summer it is
we'll not to draw much soil to them, as
it is liable to rot them at certain times
when they are more subject to this
decay than others, when covered deep
ly with soil; and doubly so after they
become larger.
All the culture they need is to have
the soil kept free of weeds and hoed
very lightly or raked just so the crust
is broken or kept loose.
About November l, before freezing
begins, give them good hoeing and a
light dressing of manure after the hoe.
