Little Boy Breaks Arm

A rather serious accident took
place at the home OF Rev. and
Mrs. Christianson last Tuesday
evening when their little 81 year
old son Dean had the misfortune
of falling into the basement, re-
sulting in a broken arm, the bone
breaking off completely near the
shoulder blade.
DR.. Koehler was called immedi-
ately, who set the bone and at
present the little fellow is getting
along as well as can be expected.
1t was the boys left arm. Here's
hoping for a speedy recovery.

Gliding to make his future home

Congressman Stout Retires

! From the Butte Miner.
Washington, D. c., Jan. %.
Representative Tom Stout to.
day formally announced that he
would not become candidate for
reelection. He said, "My reasons
are purely personal. Foremost
my wife and | would rather live
in Montana than in Washington.
We have a home in Lewistown,
which, modest though it is, has a
good many advantages over a
Washington apartment house.
THE people of Montana have
been mighty good to me and |
have tried to repay them for their
generosity by devoting my full
time and endeavor to the task of
representing them here at the
nations capital. If | believed
that | was the only person avail
able who can adequately perform
the duties of this office | would
be entii ely ready to set aside all
personal considerations and stick
with the job, but | appreciate
that there are scores of good men
in Montana who can represent
the interests of our state here in
Washington with just as much |
fidelity and doubtless greater dis
tinction than |.
my future plans contemplate
going back to hwistown, resum-
ing my old job as the editor of
my newspaper and taking only
such part in public affairs as
every good citizen should deem
his duty to take in both develop
ment and upbuilding of a thriv-
ing, progressive community"

Col. Hull Informs
Contract Has Been Let

About the most reliable infor-
nation regarding railroad con-
struction the Banner has been
able to obtain lately is a statement
made by Col. D. j. Hull, the
Great Northern Right-of- Way
man, in a letter to M. A. Thore-
son of this place, received a few
days ago.
In his letter Mr.. Hull stated
that he had now received an Of
ficial plat from the head office at
st. Paul, showing the permanent
survey between Lambert and
Circle which has recently been
decided upon by the officials of
the Great Northern, and that he
had received instructions to 90
and finish up the purchasing of
right-of-way at once.
He also stated that contracts
for the construction of line west
from Lambert had already been
let, and that unless something un-
looked for happens, work will
start early in the spring.
This information coming from
Mr.. Hull, whom it is known has
heretofore never let out any in
formation regarding the railroads
intentions, we consider about the
most reliable of anything we have |
heard yet.
1t also looks very probable that
the company intends doing some
thing this coming spring by the
fact that representatives of Guth-
rie G Co., have recently been at
Lambert and vicinity investigating
conditions at Fox Lake over which
the survey runs.
The general opinion of every
one is that the road is almost sure
to be built at least as far as Circle
the coming summer. But although
prospects for railroad to Circle
by next fall looks very favorable
at present, there is no telling what
may turn up before spring which
may cause the company to can ,,
cell all operations of grading etc.
However we will have to live in :
hopes that by next fall we will be
able to see many a carload of
grain shipped out of Circle by
rail. .

trifle premature 10 begin changing any

Muckrakers and uplifters and satirists
and all of the others of the numerous
and exceedingly vocal association re-
formers have been devoting much
space in our most Influential news
papers and most respectable magazines
to expose the defects and congenital
degeneracy of the congre ssional pork
barrel and have drawn much acclaim
from the populace for their multitude
inous exposes but nevertheless and
notwithstanding, the p. b. continues to
flourish with all of its antique and ebul-
lient florecence. Despite the many
deadly assaults of recent months, the
pork barrel today demonstrated that it
possesses power recuperation which
must be discouraging, to say the least,
to those talented gentlemen who have
been so copiously tearing it to tatters
since the close of the last session of
congress.
Like the changeful chemelion, the
esteemed pork barrel possesses the
happy faculty of altering not only its
color but also its shape as the necessi-
ties of the occasion demand. 1t may
appear this week in the guise of
rivers and harbors bill, next week as a
military appropriation bill carrying
substantial federal gratuities for useless
army posts and the week after as a
pension bill containing increases in the
pensions of thousands of people who
were born some years after the curtain |
had been rung down following the
final act of our great fratracidal tragedy |
Of half century ago. ia :.
But with public opinion running I
strongly against the pork barrel as It
mas existed in the past, it became
-ather necessary this year to devise a
lew method of turning an ancient trick
laid trick being the distribution of GER
ain government monies in such a man.

distribution. Whether rightly or

PKOIESl' INTERFERENCE

The American Note to Great Britain
is Clear and Vigorous in
It's Terms.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The text Of
the American protest to Great Britain
against interference with neutral mails
made public tonight reveals that dip
lomatic and consular dispatches have
been treated in a manner the United
States considered 'veXatiously inquisi-
torial." TIE note describes the prac-
tees of British officials as ''unwar-
ranted interference and in urgently
requesting a prompt reply, points out
that "a strong feeling is being aroused"
in this country because Of the loss Of
valuable letters, while foreign banks
are refusing 10 cash American drafts
because they have no assurances that
drafts are secure in the mails.
The United States declares that the
Parcel post articles are entitled to the
exemptions of neutral trade and de-
MES the right of Great Britain to take
neutral mail ships into British juris
diction for purposes of search and then
submit them to local censorship regu-
lations. 1t also denied that the Brit
ish government has authority over neu-
tral sealed mails on ships which mere
ly touch at British ports.

Odell where they defeated the team
from that place the night previous.
Spectators report that it was one Of
the best games they had ever witnessed
as the teams were evenly matched anG
both played clean ball. To the Mosiel
players much favorable mention was
made regarding their sportsmanlike
conduct, and the local boys speak in
highest praise of their opponents.
The boys left here Friday noon in a
sleigh with four horses attached, driven
by J. P. Tryon. After the game a
dance was enjoyed and the team left
early in the morning for home.
Throughout the game the score was
close. A return game will be played
here in the near future.

A WORD FOR MOTHERS

1t is grave mistake for mothers to neg

depressed, you should know that SCOTS
Emulsion overcomes just such conditions
It possesses in concentrated form the
very elements to invigorate the blood,
strengthen the tissues, nourish the nerves
and build strength.
