STOCK SUBJECT TO
'Y.sNATION ANY TIME.

Assessors all over Montana, as
well as stockmen, will be keenly in
terested in an opinion given out by
to the effect that livestock brought
into Montana for grazing purposes,
after the firsst Monday in March, is
subject to taxation the anne as if it
had been in the state prior to that
time.
The opinion was given at the re-
quest Of julian Terrett, county at
torney of Big Horn county, who pro-
pounded the question not only with
reference to the taxation of livestock
but also as to whether it is the duty
of assessors to assess property found
in the state owned by a reident for
the year in which the property was
brought into he state, when such
property was not brought into the
state until after IL o'clock noon of
the first day OF March.
With reference to the second ques-
ton Attorney General Poindexter
says that an opinion by former at
torney general holds that bank fix
lures which were not within the
state the frs Mondaty OF March were
not taxable.
"This opinion says the attorney
general lis the law, and the only
question a to the doctrine would be
as to the personal property, the situs
OF which is presumde to be at the

tility of such property would, of

BILL JONES-PeSSimiSt.

Bill Jones was a pessimist, when he
said: "Man comes into this world
without his consent, and leaves against
his will. During his stay on earth his
time is spent in one continuous road OF
contraries and misunderstanding by
the crowd in the background. When
he is little the big girls kiss him;
when he is big the little girls kiss
him. If he speaks to a woman on the
street some gossipy old hen whispers
to his wife Watch your man. II he
don't speak to every person he meets
he is heightened. If he is poor he is a
bad manager; if he is rich he is dis
honest. If he needs credit he can't
get it; if prosperous everybody wants
to do him favors. If he is in politics
he is a CRATER; if he is out of politics
he has not influence. If he is in
church he is hypocrite; if he is out
of church he is a sinner. If he don
ates to charity he does it for show
if he doesn't he is a tightwad. If he
dies young there was a great future
before him; if he lives to a good ole
age he is simply doing it to save fun
eral expenses.-Exchange.

OCEAN SPOT FIVE MILES DEEP.

The deepest regions Of the ocean are
commonly close to the shore and are
believed to have been caused by the
crumpling inward of the earth's sur
face due to the pressure of the near
land. Such is the "TuscarOra deep, a
long, narrow trough which extends
northward from Japan along the coast
of Asia; it's bottom being more than
27,600 feet below the general level of
the oceans floor. An even more pro-
found abyss is the Aldrich deep, close
to the Tongan and Kermadec islands,
which sinks to a depth of 30,930 feet.
The greatest depth yet found, how
ever, is the Swire deep of Mindanao
of the Philippines, this being $1,000
feet, or 3,OS9 feet deeper than Mount
Everest of the Himalayas is high.
However, one gains an idea of the
rarity of such abysmal regions from
the fact that of the $3.50 soundings
that have been made and reported in
water over a thousand fathoms in
depth, only seventeen were greater
than 1000 and only three exceed 5000
fathoms in depth. The greatest re-
corded depth of the ocean is only 400
feet more than six miles.-Scientific

COUNTY HIGHWAY NOTES.
Commissioner Mink Receives Plans
On Burton CaSSViIIe Road.

Plans were received last week on
which at present leaves Burton on the
west and goes up very steep hill to
the summit above Grant Valley. The
relocation will, if put through, go to
the same point-namely, the top OF
the hill but by a different route skirt
ing around the bluff for several humid
red yards. The plans call for the re-
moval of 4,495 cubic yards of mater
ial, the roadbed TO be shaped accord
ing to standard cross sections and
the sections to be chosen according
to the soil and construction condi-
tons.
The road, if put through, will re-
duce the grade from % per cent to
"a per cent and be several hundred
feet longer than at present. Three
rods wide right of way must be secur-
ed. Four drainage structures are on the
plan and the necessary guard rail.
The town of Waterloo has at pres
ent about $500 available for road pur-
poses and as rough estimate places
the cost Of the relocation at $4,000, it
will be necessary for the town to
raise about $500 more if at the town
meeting next month the voters desire
to go ahead with the project. The
amount of state and county aid avail
able with this sum would be about
$1,000.

man of the town in which the above
work is to be done, and Turner Bros.

COST OF LIVING INCREASED.
Heavy Advances Are Being Quoted
to Various Retailers In All Lines.

Various retailers are dubious whether
to laugh or cry these days for al
most without exception, advances
have been quoted in practically every
line. Farm machinery of all kinds
is up 10 per cent, increases having
already been plastered on and ano-
Their 10 per cent is effective by June
1st Grain binders will advance S.
above the present price by April LIST.
The dry goods dealers report adj
vances on many things, silks, linens
and other fabrics being higher than
they were and prospects of other adj
vances very shortly. Sugar is going
higher than ever according to one
man who knows what he is talking
about. At present sugar is selling
around TIC and it may go above SC
by summer.
In the printing business we find
heavy increases in all classes of color
ed papers, with the announcement
that certain colors cannot beo btained
at any price. Goldenrod paper has
advanced 800 per cent, cardinals are
out of sight and print papers are
likely to be of a distinctly yellow hue
before long. The manufacturers claim
that they are unable to obtain the
bleaching powders and ultramarine
blue used in producing the glossy
finish of the Herald's print paper and
consequently our readers must not feel
panied to receive a paper with a
yellow tinge to it when the present
supply is exhausted.
All the above is due to the Euro
pean war. Hardware, barbwire, fence
wire, rifles, metals of all kinds, alumni
mum ware, dyes, acids, paints, papers,
clothing and practically everything
is affected by the advances. The diff
ference will not be marked if our
farmers are able to raise a goodly
crop this season, for prices on farm
products are certain to keep step
with the upward procession.

Richard Meyer moved that the
health officer be instructed to carry
out the law without fear or favor in
improving sanitary conditions, and
this was carried. Mr.. Gross moved
that April Is, being the third Satur
day of next month, be set aside as
city cleanup Day." and this motion
was carried The school children are
at liberty that day and their assist
ance will be of no small amount in
getting the city placed in spick and
span condition.
The chair brought up the matter OF
Lancaster's poor train service and
voiced his belief that the business
men Of this town could get ample as
sistance from Montfort, Fennimore
and other towns along the line in ask
ing the North Western to give us bet
ter service. If this is of no avail, the
rate commission can be applied to.
The old committe consisting of III. e.
Carthew, E. J. Austin, r. Meyer, Jr.,
and Martin Mcdonald, was reappoint-
ed to take the necessary steps for Sc
securing better train service.
The chair read a letter written by
Mr.. A. H. Melville, secretary of the
Madison commercial club, offering to
come here at any time and give lee
ture on subjects of interest to the
body. The letter was heard with in
terest and at a no-distant date Mr.
Melville may be a guest of the even
ing.
To rid the community of itinerant
frauds. #. @. Meyer moved that a
committee be appointed to investigate
the case of each out of town party
asking for charity and issue creden-
tials in such cases as the committee
deemed worthy. The idea being tC
protect the business people from
frauds and fakirs. When the commit
tee issues proper credentials the bus
mess people can give or not as they
see fit.
After some further discussion or
the purpose of evening-that of 6

jOUrned.

will appoint four members to act witt

The Business Mems Association,
Gentlemen: The Woman's Club ap-
pointed me to ask you to put prob
lem before the Business Mems meet
ing tomorrow evening. 1t is one that
has been much discussed in the Wo-
mems club and we thought the men
of Lancaster ought to handle it.
1t is the problem of a general clean
up before fiy-time, OF the alleys, back
yards and stable yards of the COM
munity; also of finding some proper
and sanitary method for the disposal
of garbage.
We feel it a matter of great import
ance. and think that a general clean
UP of such places would do a great
deal to lessen the fly nuisance.
There are places 1 know near the
North school school grounds that are a
menace to health, and badly in need
OF attention. The flies are dreadful
in the school rooms and most annoy
ing to teachers and pupils.
If the manure piles and stables
near the school grounds were cleaned
It would surely destroy breeding
places for flies, lessen the number OF
the pests and add to the comfort and
health of the school children. There
must be ways to accomplish things
of this sort. Cleanup days are es-
tabIished in many towns and cities.
We are anxious to get results in
some way, and would like to have the
men of the community solve the prob
lem. If you will find the way the wo-
men will do everything in their pow
er to help.
Kindly put this before the meeting
and ask the men to take some action
or advise the Women's Club how to
do it.
Thanking you in advance, we are
cordially yours

MUNICIPAL BUILDING
NOW UP TO VOTERS
Continued from Page One.)

$4,000 available from the Ryland fund
for municipal purposes, $4,000 is al
ready available or approximately 20
per cent of the amount asked for-pro-
vided of course, that the free site IN
Ryland park is made use OF. Dr..
Fowler said that there was no use in
dilly-dallying arOund-that the thing
L do was to go before the voters
while the proposition had life behind
il and abide by their decision.
The speaker believed that papers
should be circulated without delay,
and called attention to the saving
made by having a vote at the regular
election-instead of a special election
later on,
Frank C. Never and Louis Fischer
both endorsed the $4,000 bond issue
and it was moved that this amount be
specified in the request made to the
city council for action.
Mr.. Carthew and Mr.. Meyer pointed
out that there were two provisions
in the statute for matters OF this KIND
but that the necessary legal steps
could be looked up IN very short
time, and the committee instructed as
to the proper method.
Fred Avery and A l.. Sherman
asked whether or not prompt action
could be taken and were assured that
there was nothing to hinder the COM
mittee members from getting started
at although the instructions al
low thin whatever time is necessary.
