CAREER OF
GREAT MAN
AT AN end

st. Paul, May 30.--In the death CT
James j. Hill the Northwest has lost
its foremost citizen and the United
States one of it's leading railroad men
and tinanciers. Although nearly sew
enty-eight years of age Mr.. Hill con-
tinued to guide his numerous branches
of industry until few days before
his death.
Mr.. Hills illness dated from May II,
when he returned to his home suffer
ing from a bad chill, the outgrowth
of hemorrhoids. On May % q slight
infection OF the buttock was noticed,
the result of the hemorrhoids. This
infection spread rapidly and two op-
erations failed to retard it's progress.
From this time on Mr.. Hill lost
strength rapidly and hope for recov-
cry was abandoned some hours before
the end came.
Mr.. Hills wife and children were
present at the end, together with DR..
Herman M. Biggs of New York and
Rev. Thomas J. Gibbons, vicar general
of the Catholic diocese of st. Paul.

ROMAN WALL0PS
MISSION REDS

The game last Sunday on the Roman
diamond between the locals and the
Mission Reds was too one-sined to be
interesting after the sixth inning. The
game started off like real game, with
the Reds rapping out two runs in their
half and it looked like they We're going
to trounce the home team. But in
their half the Greys slugged the offer
ings of Blake, the opposition twirler,
and before the run-getting was stopped
three scores were chalked up and it
looked like Romans game. 1t was a
goose egg for the Reds in their half of
the second, but Roman made another
and the score stood to 2. Thus it re-
manned until the fifth inning when the
Reds got busy an ran in three talies,
or one ahead, and things did not seem
as bright to win the game as before.
Roman failed to score and the Reds
changed pitchers, putting in Steve
Peone, and then the fun did begin.
Seven Grays crossed the plate in their
half of the sixth and the game was
safe and on ice. Phil Hull then went
in the box for Roman, relieving his
brother Ben, who had pitched good
ball, and it was impossible to solve his
offerings. No scores were registered
by the Reds after Phil went into the
box, but Roman added couple more in
their half of the seventh frame. The
final score stood Mission 5, Roman 13.
Jacobs was hit by pitched ball and
Harmon was substituted. He made
place for himself in the hearts of the
fans by lining out a two base hit the
first time up, with the bases full, and
scored three men. He had only one
chance in the field to show what he
could do but that was enough He
speared a long fly with his bare right
hand after a run and the crowd went
wild. Joe White started the run get
ting in the sixth inning by lining out a
two base hit with three on ahead of
him and scored them ALL SO two hits in
that inning scored six tallies. All the
boys played stellar base ball last Sun
cay and a like performance would have
won them the game the Sunday before.
Except in the one inning the Reds
played good ball, but they We're handi-
capped by their best pitcher, Archie
Mcdonald, having sore arm. He
played center field and second base
with credit. Their catcher is a good
man also, and as base stealer is as
good as has been seen here in many
day.

DYNAMITE EXPLODES AND
MUT|LATES HANDS AND FACE

DR.. Resner reports serious accident
near his place southwest of town We'd
nesday morning. 1t seems that Tony
Ryack, Hungarian, who lives on the
Jas. Mcconnell land southwest of Ro-
nan, was endeavoring to blast some
rocks in order to remove them from
the land and the dynamite he was using
had become wet so he took a portion
in his hands and was rubbing it be-
tween his fingers to dry it out, when
it exploded, mutilating both hands and
seriously burning his face and eyes.
DR.. Resner was called and hurriedy
dressed his injuries and took him to the
hospital at St. Ignatius, where it was
found necessary to amrutate the thumb
and two fingers on the left hand and
two fingers of the right hand. His
face and eyes, it is thought, will not
be permanently injured but will be
quite painful for some time.

FARMERS SHORT COURSE
At ROUND BUTTE A SUCCESS

The farmers short course in agri-
culture at the Round Butte school last
week was success in every way. On
Friday, the last day, more than 40
farmers were in attendance and great
interest was manifested by all present.
Farmers from that section who have
been to town all report that the lectures
by Profs. Burke on soils, Hillman on
dairying, Mccormack, the government
expert, on cooperation, and Miss
Katherine Jenson on home economics
were especially commendable as we'll
as helpful.
Several practical demonstrations were
made, including milk tests, and every
body present took the keenest interest
in both lectures and tests.
County Agriculturist j. r. Campbell
was present all three days and the
farmers out that way say that the
board of county commissioners are
lucky to secure so valuable a man and
trust that they will keep him. He
seems to be on the job all the time.
The dance given Friday night more
than paid all the expenses and the
committee in charge is entitled to much
credit for their management of the
course.

WEEKS PLEASED
WITH FLATHEAO

81 don't see why any railroad should
n t want another Gallatin valley"
Thus r. F. Weeks of Seattle, division
freight and passenger agent of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, ex-
pressed himself yesterday on his return
from the Flathead reservation, which
he investigated for probable traffic on
behalf of the Missoula Chamber of
Commerce. Mr.. Weeks is traffic ex-
pert. He made preliminary investi-
cations for every extension of the Mil
waukee between St. Paul and Seattle.
The chamber of commerce secured his
services in the belief that they were
the best available.
Mr.. Weeks travelled over the reser-
walton for four days. II wish my road
might build in there" he said. "ln
my opinion it is better country than
the Gallatln valley, which | inspected
for the Milwaukee. 1t has larger
arabic area, more water and is more
pleasantly situated, | was very fav-
orably impressed by what | saw in the
Flathead." 5"
Mr.. Weeks will make his report to
the chamber of commerce later and
upon this will depend the attitude Of
the Missoula and other interested
chambers of commerce toward the sug-
gested Missoula- to-Polson electric road
- Missoulian.

Reclamation Contracts

Bids were opened May rs, at st. Ig-
natius for construction work on various
units of the Flathead project. On
schedule |, two bids were received,
Mendenhall, Bird & Co., Springville,
Utah, bid $19, $40; Percy M. Ross, $18,-
O40. On schedule the bids were Earl
D. Covell, $19,615.65; Clarence B.
Long. Poison, 4,947.3O. On schedule
3, Mendenhall, Bird & Co., bid $780,
300, while on schedule no bids were
submitted.
Saturday a contract was let to Earl
D. Covell for 1000 yards of earth
work, the same being the construction
of a canal to take the place of the
north Pablo reservoir. which has been
abandoned. The reservoir cost $76,-
OOO, so it is reported, all of which is a
total loss.

FORM RING ABOUT TEUTONS

London, May 30--The British, Bel
gan and Portuguese forces, which
have invaded German East Africa, are
slowly but surely forming ring
around the Germans, while General
Smuts, Boer commander of the South
African forces, is surrounding the Ger
mans who are defending the Usanbara
railway and has occupied one of the
important stations on that line as we'll
ing to an official report.
British force has penetrated twen-
ty miles into German territory in the
front between Lakes Nyassa and Tan
ganyika.

This was declared illegal, under the
Sherman antitrust law, by divided
court, upon suit by the United States
government, and the Northern Securi-
ties company was dissolved.
In 1907 the subsidiary companies
controlled by the Great Northern, in
Guiding fourteen railway companies
operated as a part Of it, were pur-
chased and incorporated into the Great
Northern system. In the same year
Mr.. Hill resigned the presidency Of
the system and became chairman of
the board of directors, an Office he
held until July /, 1912, when he re-
signed.
Along with Mr.. Hills railroad ac-
tivities he also branched into the bank
ing business.
The greatest event in the history of
the First National bank in st. Paul
was it's merger with the Second Ma
tional on Jan. /, 1913, after j. J. Hill
and his associates had acquired sub
stantial interest in both institutions.
When Mr.. Hill acquired his inter
ests in the two banks and merged
them he at the same time got controi
of the Northwestern Trust company
with a view to providing the means
in St. Paul for handling large f1nan-
cial transactions and operations that
had previously been made through the
great banking institutions or New

Seattle to Vancouver, p. C. In 1889 a
branch had entered the ore producing
regions of Northern Minnesota, move
which resulted in the taking over by
the company of great tracts of ore
land.
Meanwhile the ambitions of the rail
way builder reached even beyond the
coast lines OF the Western United
States. He had long made study OF
American commercial relations with
tigation had convinced him that an
eager market for American wares lay
over there in the region OF the rising
sun.

n. P. LINE WILL Be
0NE-HALF MILE WEST

OF Roman as a location for the
best town to be built in this
great valley. Those who have
been skeptical heretofore may
now cast aside all feeling of fear
and 90 ahead with any perman-
ent building with the utmost
security.
Mr.. Cooper was accompanied
by Senator Joseph M. Dixon of
Missoula, w. H. Merriman. di-
vision freight and passenger
agent, Superintendent Lowery,
Major Morgan, Project Engineer
E. F. Tabor, Fred Sterling, Geo.
H. Beckwith and several others
whose names were not learned.
1t was expected that President
Hannaford would be of the party
but at the last moment he was
called back to St. Paul by the
serious illness of James J. Hill.
Mr.. Hannaford was in Missoula
but received word to return just
before leaving for Roman.
The party drove as far as Pol
son and Mr.. MOWerv. the en-
gineer who has been doing the
last work over the line, accom-
panied them all way. This also
lends color to the rumor that
work will commence on the Dix
on extension right after the
board Of directors meet in July.
This would enable the road to be
completed in time to handle the
1916 crop very nicely.
After making the return trip
to the railroad the officials pro-
ceeded to their respective sta
tions and left the feeling here
that some good had been accom-
plished by the agitation for an
electric line. Everybody feels
that if it had not been for the
meetings held in Roman and the
monster meeting held in Mis-
soula, that nothing would have
been done this year. 1t some
times takes a big noise to wake
some people up and when some
of the people live as far away as
New York City it requires an ex-
ira amount to accomplish any,
thing. The noise evidently pen
etrated the quarter most needed.
The electric line would still be
a good thing, both for Missoula
and the valley, and some day
will be realized. 1t would meet
with as hearty support and en-
couragement today as it did
when the chances looked very
slim for any road building by the
N. P. The people here have not
changed their minds by the COM
ing Of the high officials Of that
road.

Roman people who had the
pleasure of meeting General Sup
erintendent Cooper of the Nor
thern Pacific while he was in
Roman last Sunday, were more
than pleased to hear Mr.. Cooper
make the announcement that the
line from Dixon had been
definitely located and that it
would be built according to the
last survey which runs just one
half mile west of the Pioneer
office. This is the line which the
engineer, Mr.. Mowry, who has
been here for the past month,
has been engaged in running and
which brought the line more than
a mile closer to town than any
previous survey.
Mr.. Cooper said that when
Mr.. Mowry was sent here he
was instructed to bring the line
as close to Roman as the topog-
raphy of the country and the dis
tance of the detour would per-
NIT, and that after the survey
had been made it was found that
this was as close to town as they
could get without mourning too
great a curve in the line. He in
quired Of those present from Ro-
nan if this arrangement would
meet with the approval of Roman
people and seemed very pleased
when told very readily that it
certainly would. Mr.. Cooper
further said that the arrange
ments had all been made to rake
the announcement when con-
struction work would be COM
menced when President Wilson
sent the ultimatum to Germany
which so nearly caused a break
in diplomatic relations, and
which caused the directors of the
road to withhold the announce
ment. He said that a meeting
of the directors would be held
July l, at which meeting some
thing definite would be decided
upon and announced.
He told the delegation that
the N. P. had been keeping close
watch of the development by the
reclamation service; that the slow
manner of the government in
furnishing the money to COM
plete the project had been the
cause of the railroad not building
before, but now that congress
has voted $750,000, a very liberal
sum, that the road would not
hesitate any longer in building
to Roman.
Coming as it does from one
high in authority, this announce
ment must be taken as definite.
1t should settle the permanency

burned your property. Tell us, Is there
anything we can do TO you that will make
you fight like men?" This is a typical
Mexican taunt flung at Americans in Mex
leo, and it is of value, because it indicates
the attitude of Mexicans toward people Of
our own country.
1t is of little meaning now-thls Obre-
gon-Scott protocol-save as it reveals the
same utter refusal on the part Of the
President to face the fact he has created.
To suppose that there is anything Of value
in the agreement reached, anything Of per-
manent value, is foolish. We may retreat
now, but we shall have to return. We are
at war with Mexico by Mr. Wilson's act,
and it is only a question of time when we
shall hate TO face the fact Of war which
Mr. Wilson has blinked so long.

Genius and Book Learning.

To tho Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: n Robert Browning were living to-day
he would be obliged to amend his immortal
line "Alls right with the world But let
Ms indeed be thankful that the Shakespearian

English drama and literature for all time.

able letter by Mr. Arthur VI. Taylor in The
Tribune Of this date. The supposition that
Shakespeare could not have written Shake

sense Of the beautiful in child should begin
before book learning.
Let US read one OF Charles Darwn's la
ments: If had ny life again, would have
made il a rule to read some poetry and lister
10 some music at least once every week; per
haps. then, the part of my brain now atrophled
would have been kept active through use.
The loss Of these tastes is loss of happiness
and may possibly be injurious TO the intel
ect, more probably TO the moral character
by enfeebling the emotional part Of our
nature"
Goethe went further when he wrote: "a
man should hear little music, read litt.e
poetry and see fine picture every day o.
his life in order that worldly cares may not
obliterate the sense Of the beautiful which
God has implanted in the human soul"

Blaming the american Peasant"

The adventure of theatrical life must
have cut deep into the soul of Mr.. Win
throp Ames to bring forth the reproof
of the masses" which he uttered at the
Sothern dinner. Poor stuff, he rated the
American stage in the present dark hour {;
and the blame he laid entirely at the door
Of democracy. Public schools, prosperity
and labor unions have accomplished a
grand public watering Of the intellectual
stock" he declared Those Americans
who would be called peasants abroad"
have pressed upward to the increase of
the clover middle class" and the lower
ing Of theatrical taste. And so on.
Just why this philosophy should have
seemed appropriate at celebration In
honor Of Mr.. and Mrs. Sothern, with their
record Of popular Shakespearian success,
it is o little hard to comprehend. Mr..
Ames seemed to feel the awkwardness Of
his situation and devoted some time 70
praising their clairvoyance, faith or rea-
son Che was not sure which, in playing
up" to ;heir public successfully.
That democracy has had a thoroughly
disturbing effect on the old landmarks Of
intellectual aristocracv every one will
gladly admit. Such intellectual taste as
depended on tradition and habit has un-
Qucstionably lost ground And ability TO
find new landmarks in the maelstrom Of
modern taste has been slow 70 develop.
Writing and playing down" to a supposed
general public has been the easy way the
safe way, out. But now that the revolu-
ton has progressed into fairly well defined
channels It is time that a realization Of
gains as we'll rs losses should appear The
American peasant has a surprising way
Of turning up at college or even the Lit
tie Theatre before he is through with
life. And even if he escapes these con
ventonal channels of intellectual training
he often has quite as keen an eye for the
criticism of life upon the stage as your
born and bred Intellectual
The aristocratic theory broke down long
ago in political life simply because it
wasn't so. It dies harder in sheorly in
,electual pursuits. Yet even there the
idea is beginning to dawn that the trouble
with democracy is not democracy, but the
failure Of its leaders TO trust it.
