opinion remove her peaceful charac-

when the Deutschland left Baltimore

she needed for her own use, and that
she might act as a floating base for

.Perrine Says Loss
To Date is Light
RumOrs Concerning Loss
of Sheep Greatly
Stretched

There is no foundation to
the rumor circulated here that
my sheep losses have been
heavy during the past week or
two" said Jas. A. Perrine to the
Pioneer Press Tuesday. Il
credit the rumor to a herder
who left the band and came to
Cut Bank for a celebration. /
have lost a few older and weak
er animals, but the percentage
of loss to date is remarkably
light"
Mr.. Perrine states that there
is plenty of feed on the reserva-
tion and recently he purchased
hundred tons of hay, as a
reserve in case the cold spell
should continue for long
period. Those who put up
large quantity of hay and have
a surplus are making good mon
ey this winter, he says.
Mr.. Perrine seems inclined
to think that the Walsh bill, to
open the eastern edge of the
Reservation, will pass at the
coming session and appears to
have excellent reasons for this
belief. Two delegations from
the Reservation were recently
called to Washington, to present
the case, pro and con, before
Commissioner Sells. Bob Ham
ilton heads the "antis" and NAL
colin Clark is spokesman for
those who favor the opening.
The Hamilton lieutenants are
Oliver Sanderville, Bird Rather
and Chief Wolf Plume. The
Clark lieutenants are Dick San
derville, Jack Galbreath and
Mountain Chief.
1T has always been claimed
heretofore that the agitation in
favor of this move was con-
fined to a few mixed-bloods of
the more prosperous class" said
Perrine. "but this time each of
the delegations has a full-blood
Pigan chief to present the op-
posing opinions and the Com
missioner ought to be able to
get a good angle on the situa-
ton, from the standpoint of the
older Indians"

In Re Persona/
Prebayeahess

There's another lesson in
what might be termed personal
preparedness" to be learned
from the unusual conditions
that have prevailed the past
month, due to the severity of
the winter. And it is rather
human to pass the buck" as
the popular slang phrase ex-
presses it, or in other words to
excuse our own thoughtlessneSs
and lay the blame elsewhere.
There has been much condem-
nation of the Great Northern
for failure to make prompt coal
deliveries to different parts of
Montana, but after considering
all phases of the matter the
Pioneer Press feels in accord
with the following from the
Havre Plaindealer:
The Plaindealer holds no brief
for the railway company, but
it's sympathy is broad enough
to embrace that carrier as well
as unfortunate residents along
its line who suffer for want of
coal. Simply because the COM
pany cannot perform a physical
impossibility is no just reason
why it should be universally
condemned. We live in cold
country; ordinary winters are
sufficiently mild to permit sup
plying coal needs; until Christ
mas day the conditions were
ideal for the laying in of a fuel
supply; and if there is suffering
now for lack of coal, it is more
the fault of the communities af-
fected than of the Great North
ern railroad or any other human
agency. Whatever human suf-
fering exists, could in most
cases have been avoided by due
preparation.

The Stockmeu

A large number of stokmen
in the section north of Cut Bank
have called at the Pioneer Press
office within the past week to
look over the conditions of the

feet. After carefully reading
the conditions the invariable
declaration was none of it in

that the fencing provisions are
absurd, since the fence must be
donated at the expiration of the
leasing period. A number have
stated that the only feasible
plan would be the organization

purpose Of leasing and fencing
the land and for the mutual
protection Of the stock.

Club Talks Over
the Coal Situation
Water Famine Also Under
Discussion at Club
Meeting

President P. B. Anderson
called a meeting of the Com
mercial Club on Monday after
noon to discuss the coal situa-
ton. 1t seems that nothing
short of new county division
scheme or a crisis of some kind
provides sufficient incentive for
a good club meeting here. Mon
days meeting was well attend
ed, by business interests and a
few ranchers. 1t was learned
at this meeting that the Great
North ,rn had car of Fernie
coal which it offered to sell to
the club and after considerable
discussion John Miller was
asked to arranged to purchase
this coal and distribute a ton to
each person who made a re-
quest, as long as it lasted. How
ever, Mr.. Miller found it un-
necessary to purchase this coal,
as shipment came in for him
on the same evening and the
threatened famine has been
averted for the present. Secre-
tary Frank VanDemark was
asked to wire the Great North
ern superintendent at Great
Falls, asking that coal shipments
to Cut Bank receive the roads
best attention hereafter.
The water situation was in
formally discussed. President
Potter and Alderman Anderson
gave it as their opinion that
persons whose hydrants were
not working at present were
freeto use water from open iIy-
drants of their neighbors. Mr..
Potter stated that it would prob
ably be necessary to purchase a
new standpipe, as the pipe is
badly cracked in several places.
"The condition is extraordinary
and may not happen again for
forty years, so there is nothing
to do but be patient and strive
to make the best of conditions.
We are doing all we can for
water patrons, regardless of
cost" said Mayor Potter.
