Criminal Cases Disposed Of. Two
Plead Guilty and are Sentenced.
On Wednesday, February oath, the
District Court convened to try the
numerous cases on the calendar. A
jury was selected from among those
summoned and the Court proceeded
to try the first case on the calendar,
that of the State of Montana VS.. Hib-
ben, in which the defendant was charg-
ed with assault in the second degree.
The case was long drawn out affair,
an interpreter being necessary for
many of the witnesses. The case con-
tinued over until Thursday and all the
evidence had been submitted Wednes-
day night. When the case was about
ready to go to the jury, one OF the
Jurors, Herman Baalke, was stricken
with an attack of heart failure and
was taken to the hospital for treat
ment. The jury was excused until
today and this morning at ten O'Clock
were to resume their duties.
Thursday afternoon, Frank Miller
and George Blake, charged with hold
up at Malta, appeared in court with
their attorney, E. N. Hill and entered
pleas of guilty. They were given SEN
tences of from one to three years in
the state penitentiary at Deer Lodge
Ex-Governor E. l.. Norris of Great

school, with Roy Huber as principal.
The pupils in the first eight grades
are taught here. The teachers under

Schroeder and Miss Parker.
At the north side school the first
six grades are taught, the teachers
being Miss Johnson, Miss Harlin, Miss
Lotten, and Miss Gaynor.
In all there are now sixteen teach
ers in the city schools of Glasgow,
while five years ago there were but
seven. Three teachers were added to
the faculty this year and there will
doubtless be large increase in the
number of pupils next year which will
require more teachers.
Today the faculty and pupils of the
new school will receive visitors from
8 a. m. until p. MAS the electric
light fixtures are not here yet, it has
been impossible to have an evening

FAIR DIRECTORS MEET
New Board Holds First Meeting. Of.
licers for Coming Year Elected.

The Board of Directors of the VAL
ley County Fair met for their first
meeting Wednesday night in the Com
mercial Club rooms, all being present
except Peter A. West.
DR.. M. d. Hoyt was unanimously
elected President for the ensuing year,
and Sam L. Rugg was chosen Vice
President. Leo B. Coleman was elect
ed Treasurer and S. C. Moore, Secre-
tary. Mr.. Leo Coleman rendered his
resignation as member of the board
Of directors, stating that it would be
impossible for him to devote the time
that it would be necessary to give in
attending to the detail work of the
fair directors and asking that his re-
signation be accepted. He stated that
he would be glad to DO anything to
help make the fair a success and would
work with the board in any matter in
which the board wished to call on
him during the year, but he felt that
he ought not attempt to act on the
Board of Directors because he needed
to give the time and attention to his
own business.
The board filled the vacancy Gre
ated by the resignation of Mr., Cole
man by unanimously electing J. L.
Truscott to the board. Mr.. .Truscott's
past experience in Fair Association
work and his keen judgment makes
him an ideal man to serve on the
board. Mr.. Truscott attempted to
resign and not accept his appointment
but he was arbitrarily ordered to "peal
his coat" and go to work by the Pre-
sident.
Committee chairmen were appoint
ed and preliminary plans outlined for
the coming year but no definite action
was taken. Another meeting will be
held within short time.
The board wants every farmer in
Valley county to feel that he has a
personal interest in the conduct of
the fair association and realize that
the success of the fair depends prim
arily upon the farmer exhibiting his
products. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended to all the farmers in the county
to attend the meetings of the board,
as they will be glad to receive help
from them through suggestions and
information which they can give,
| :nh 70 Hn %hn foir
attractive. By calling on the Secre-
tary at the Commercial Club rooms,
information may be had as to when
meetings will be held and the plans
for the coming year will be outlined
to anyone desiring to secure the in
formation. The board is enthusias-
tic over the prospects for a fair this
year that will outclass the 1914 fair
even more than the 1914 fair outclass-
ed the 1918 fair. 1t is the desire of
the Directors to not only increase the
attendance but to make the exhibits
doubly as large as they were last year.
They hope to be able to give as many
or more premiums as were given at
the fair last year. The premiums
will probably be awarded through
classification of exhibits, somewhat
different from last year in order that
the same kinds of livestock and agri-
cultural products which were not pro-
perly considered last year will oe Civ
en- good show to carry off the blue
ribbons.

tee and that Poplar would send a COM
mittee to Helena provided the Glas-
gov Commercial Club paid all en-
penses.
Discussion seemed to make it ap-
pear that Mr.. Bowers had come up
from Culbertson under the mis-ap-
prehension that it was only necessary
to show the Glasgow Commercial Club
the desire of the people of Culbertson
to be taken back into Valley county
and that all the work, finance, and
detail of securing the change in boun-
Diary lines of Valley and Sheridan
counties would be done by the Club.
On motion by Mr.. Leo B. Coleman,
then carried, that as soon as the cities
of Culbertson, Poplar and Wolf Point
had committees ready to go to Helena
to present the matter to the Legisla-
ture, the Glasgow Commercial Club
would send its committee with them
and do all possible to assist in secur-
ing its passage.
Mr.. r. J. Moore then by motion ask
ed that the Glasgow Commercial Club
to place itself on record as favoring
the passage of the bill introduced in
Helena, changing the boundary lines
Of Valley and Sheridan counties,
thereby adding territory adjacent to
Wolf Point and including that city to
Valley County. Motion carried.
Adjournment was then taken as no.
thing more can be done until the cities
interested in changing the boundary
line are heard from.

Some of the republican scouts
who have been taking a prelimin-
ary survey OF political conditions,
claim to have discovered move
ment In some states where the pre-
sidential primary is in operation,
to force the nomination of Col.
Roosevelt on the republican ticket.
OF course Mr.. Roosevelt does not
claim to represent republican prin-
ciples but this would not prevent t
voters calling themselves republic
ems from forcing bis name onto
the ticket if majority could be
secured. OF course such move
would disrupt the republican par
ty and would insure the election of
democratic president The fact
that such proceeding is possible
simply proves that party organic :
ton cannot be maintained under
the primary system where candi.
dates rather than principles de-
termine the vote.

Yankton plans on handling the
biggest crowd in her history on
Gala Day, October 10th, when the
world famous United States Marine
Band gives a matinee concert in
the Garden Terrace Theatre-the
open air auditorium on the college
campus; and State College of
Brookings clashes with the Yank-
ton college Greyhounds for grid
iron supremacy.
The Marine Band is the most
illustrious of american musical Or
ganizations. 1t is now returning
from an all-summer engagement
at the Panama Pacific exposition,
and makes Yankton as one of the
relatively few towns on its return
trip. 1t is only in the last few
years that the president has ever
permitted the organization to leave
Washington.
| State has won but once on
Yankton gridiron; Yankton but
once at Brookings. Both teams
are strong and should be evenly
balanced. Brookings proclaims a
team capable of making clean
sweep for the collegiate champion
ship. Yankton predicts a surprise.
The two teams and Dakota Wes-
leyan locked in triple tie for the
college championship last year.
Great crowds are anticipated by
automobile from everywhere within
motoring distance. The train ser :
vice is excellent. There will be
free pushmobile races down town
in the morning. A combination
ticket for both attractions will be
sold at $h50.

Not Encouraoino.

Mr. Taft, ex-president of the United
States, is a gifted writer, and at one
time he had a high reputation as
poet, says London Tit-Bits. On one oc-
casion, however, when he was very
young man, he received a nasty shock
from an esteemed relative of his.
This was an aunt who lived in the
country, and the future president went
to dine with her one Sunday evening.
Proudly he carried with him some cut
tings from nothing less,
In fact than his own published verses.
After the meal he took them exultant-
ly from his pocket and gave them to
his aunt to read.
Adjusting her spectacles, she went
through them carefully, while her
poetical nephew watched her anxious
ly. Presently she put down the cut
tings and glanced over her spectacles
at the poet.
William" she asked, innocently,
"do they print those things for moth
ing if you send them in?"

to the ruling of the public examin-

must, after November 10Th, keep
at least fifty per cent of their legal
reserve deposi' ed 10 banks within
the state of South Dakota. The
ruling has been strongly resisted
by nearly all OF the state banks
outside of the reserve centers, and
really it looks as though the ban

on their side, but experience will
show which is right.

If certain charges are true it
looks as though Eugland is rather
over playing her haud in this con.
traband business. It appears that
this country has been getting GER
tain raw material from Great Brit.
ain to be used by our manufactur.
ers, but England now refuses to
permit these shipments except up-
on a promise that the articles
manufactured therefrom shall not
be shipped to aly other country
without her consent. This demand
also includes shipments from this
country to South America The
charge is also made that England
has seized American cargoes billed
to neutral countries, on the ground
that they were contraband, has
paid tor them according to the
values liked by her prize court, and
has then shipped them herself to
neutral countries and sold them at
an advance in price. If these
charges are true they show high
handed construction of the rights
of contraband, and this country is
justified in strongly resenting it.
