energetic young fellow who under.
stands his business. He has bought
up a hundred acres of hard wood.

says there is timber enough in this To-
cality to furnish the whole state with
its charcoal, for which there is much

COAL RATES BRING PROTEST.
Interstate Commerce Counsel Asked to
SUSPEND Chicago a Alton Tariffs.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 5.-The Iowa COM
merce counsel's department has asked
the interstate commerce counsel to sus-
pend the low rating on coal which has
been made by the Chicago & Alton rail-
road from mines in Illinois to Kansas
City. This road has announced cut
of about one third in its coal rates to
the big Missouri metropolis.
Iowa mine owners and operators as
we'll as those from near by points say
they can not compete with the Illinois
mines in Kansas City If this present
rate on coal from the Illinois field is
permitted to stand. Hence they are
asking that the rate be annulled OH
the grounds that it is discriminatory.
A suspension of an increased rate on
linseed oil and oil meal from st. Paul
to Iowa points has been asked by the
commerce counsel. A suspension of
the rate on glucose via lake and rail
from Iowa Mississippi points east, re-
Gently increased, is asked.
Two Iowa railroad men of Des
Moines, Fred Mcmillan and w. b.
Causey, have gone to Washington, D.
c., to appear before the interstate
commerce commission in behalf of the
Iowa lines which handle coal.

kept pace with the development and
it's founders realized that they had

corner of the mercantile store in 1891.
For twenty-five years the found

confidence in the belief that the coun-

still believe that the era Of develop

even greater changes than the period
from 1891 to 1916, which was tran
sition from the sage brush to the
waving wheat fields.
The fact that Glasgow has had

a mighty factor in the development
of the city. The fact that our banks

O'REILLY BEING HELD
FOR SECREST MURDER
Shooting at Zortman Puzzles Au-
thorities of Two Counties.

Bernie O'Reilly is in Jail at Malta,
charged with the crime Of shooting
Bud Secrest at dance at the jim
Kipp home on the Missouri river south
of Zortman, Saturday night, Janu-
ary Is. O'Reilly and his alleged VIC
tim were partners in the cattle busi-
ness. 1t is reported that the trouble
started when Mrs. Secrest expressed
desire to go home and O'Reilly tried
to persuade her husband to accom-
pany her, a quarrel ensuing and ter
minating in general shooting affray
in which, it is reported, both Secrest
and O'Reilly and others engaged.
Phillips county officials were first
notified, but when they reached Tort
man on their way to the scene of the
shooting, they were told that the kill
ling was in Blaine county. They i'm
mediately communicated with Sheriff
Buckley and Under Sheriff Laswell
and County Attorney Sias of Blaine
county, who started Monday by team
for the Kipp place.
Deputy Sheriff Riley Brooks Of
Phillips county was there when they
arrived and had the accused man in
charge. The question again came UP
whether the Kipp place was in Blaine
or Phillips county, as the land or
which his place is located is unsur.
veyed. O'Reilly will be held at Malta
until the matter is finally decided.

SAYS HUGHES CAN'T REFUSE

Chicago, Jan. 25-Charles d. Hilles.
chairman of the republican national
committee, before leaving for New
York last Tuesday after attending
the session Of the sub committee on
arrangements for the party's national
convention, discussed political ques-
tions including the possible candidacy
of Colonel Roosevelt for the republi-
can nomination for president.
"All the information have is to the
effect that Colonel Roosevelt is not
candidate for the republican nomina-
tion," Chairman Hilles said. "lIe has
declined to permit his name to go on
the primary ballot in the only three
states where it has been suggested
Minnesota, Nebraska and Michigan.
"In the statement issued by the pro-
gressive national committee, it was
made plain that any reasonably salts
factory man would be acceptable as
the republican nominee. They insist
ed that they meant just what they
said and we will take the statement on
it's face value. ] think we will be able
to nominate a man who will be salts
factory to all elements of the party
and that our candidate will be
elected.
"In regard to Justice Hughes no
one knows just what his attitude is
today, toward the presidency. In dis
cussing the subject with a friend in
1912 Justice Hughes said when he
went on the United States supreme
court bench he took the veil and re-
nounced the world.
"There is no man big enough to re-
fuse the presidency, in my opinion.
If he were nominated without his con-
sent l have no idea what he would
do"

board of directors. His first deposit
was 1920, which represented the sum
total of his wealth at that time.
The town at that time was COM
posed Of about twenty or thirty new
log shacks which housed the inhabit-
ants of the city. Some of the busi-

fronts, but they were all typical struc-

the making of the country and the
city of Glasgow, for with their coming
came new business enterprises. At
this time some of the bench lands are
considered the most valuable in the
country, but the first settlers settled
in the river bottoms and the benches
were Stunned as dry, arid spots. But
as the land in the valley was taken,
the settlers who came later were
forced. to go on the benches, and now
some of the most valuable farms in
the county are to be found there.

In the early nineties Havre was
just beginning to rise above the
prairie sod. The main line of the
Great Northern had reached Havre
then and yards were being put in
and the biggest part of the population
was composed of men in the con-
struction camp. The line from Havre
west to the coast was started in 1890,
and many mushroom towns sprang
up along the line, which have since
passed into history.
Starting a bank in those times
when the only inhabitants in the
country were cattlemen, cow-punch-
ers and few railroad men was
"a mighty precarious proposition, but
the bank of the Lewis brothers came
through the ordeal with flying colors.
There were only about twenty ranch
iers within radius of twenty miles
of the town then, and the surround
ing country was dotted here and there
with ranches and cow camps.
In 1900 the bank found it's old quar-
ters too small and a one-story brick
building was built next to the Lewis
Wedum store and this housed the in
stitution until year ago when the
present structure was erected.
With the beginning of the twentieth
century the country began to advance
more small ranchers and stockmen
coming in, but the high tide of immi-
grafton did not begin until 1908 when
people came from all parts of the
United States and Canada and settled
on 320 acres of Uncle Sans domain
During the early part of its histor,
/. Glasgow had made slow but stead!
| growth, but the improvements wer'
few and it still remained the sam'
old frontier town.
With the coming of the farmer th'
city began to experience its frs
boom. The rush to settle on home
steads in this part of the state con
tinued, and despite the predictions O.
the old timers and cattlemen tina
sage brush was the only thing tina
would grow, the settlers built thei
shacks, broke the sod and now man.
