The republicans of Roman ad-
vertised a meeting two weeks
ago to organize a club. Then
came the big snow and rain on
the night they were to organize.
1t was decided to postpone for a
week and again there came a
splendid big rain, soaking the
ground thoroughly. Another
meeting is called for July 8, and
if it rains on that date a meeting
will be called every week until
no more rain is needed. The re.
publicans always bring good
things to all men-so they claim.

The Progressive national COM
mittee met in Chicago Monday
to take action on the declination
of Theodore Roosevelt to accept
the nomination of that party for
president. The full committee
was represented either in person
or by proxy and an acrimonious
session followed. The first &C.
ton was to accept Col. Roose-
yelt's declination, and then the
fun commenced. Some members
wanted a new man named, while
others, among whom were Geo.
w. Perkins, the real godfather
of the Bull Moose party, who
favored the endorsement of
Charles E. Hughes the repub-
lican candidate. After several
hours discussion it was voted 80
to 6, with nine members declin-
ing to vote, to endorse Hughes.
1t was developed during the
evening that those members of
the national committee who had
formerly been republicans were
favorable to Hughes, while those
whose past affiliations were with
the democratic party were
against his endorsement, so it
may be said that all are again
back in their old party align
ment.
After the endorsement had
been made by the committee a

Senator Myers writes that he
has succeeded in passing through
the senate his bill to reappraise
many or the homesteads on the
Flathead which were appraised
at a higher price by the second
commission than like lands were
appraised by the original COM
mission. He writes that his bill
provides that no lands shall be
appraised higher than like lands
appraised by the first commits
sion and none higher than $500
per acre. This means much to
many homesteaders on the reser-
walton. To provide against any
injustice to the Indians, the bill
provides that the difference shall
be paid the Indians out Of the
United States treasury. The
bill is now before the house and
is in the committee on public
lands, of which Hon. Tom Stout
is a member. Senator Myers is
very anxious to secure the pass
age through the house of this
bill and would appreciate it if
those interested would write Mr..
Stout and urge him to use an
extra effort to get it through.
Everybody here interested should
write Mr.. Stout Immediately and
save themselves many dollars.
1t should be worth that much
effort.

telegram was sent by the secre-
tary to Hughes, who Immediately
answered by wire, thanking the
committee for the endorsement
and he also sent a message to
Col. Roosevelt, asking for a con-
ference. Thus it will be seen
that there will be a square issue
made between the republicans
and democrats this year.

will require their best efforts to

|M|SS0ULA READY
WITH STAMPEDE

Everything is in readiness for the
four day celebration at Missoula, Mon
tana, July l, 2, 3 and 4.
The Mssoula Stampede plans are
completed. The horses, long horned
steers, riders. ropers, buckaroos, rope
splnners and trick riders are on the
grounds getting acquainted. There
will be many new contenders at the
Stampede this season to compete for
the championships and general cash
rizes.
Nothing has been overlooked to make
the Stampede promise of 1916 assured.
The entertainment will positively be
the most important ever staged in the
northwest.
The increasing of the relay purses
and those of other events has attracted
the attention of lots of good riders who
did not attend the Stampede last sea-
son. There will be many new and
novel features added to the program.
A stage coach race will be unique and
thrilling. Novelty races, not attempted
last year, will prove extremely enter
tanning. Mrs. "Cuba" Crutchfeld,
comic opera prima donna, will sing
with band accompaniment. There will
be five more strings of horses in the
relay event according to the entries on
hnad now.
CUBA" Crutchfeld, world famous
champion roper and rope spinner, who
performs marvellous tricks while spin
ming moose, will give exhibitions at
the Stamdede. Crutchfeld turns SOM
ersaults and cart wheels while spin
ming his rope about him, something
that is not accomplished by other
ropers.
The Stampede will fill four after
moons with thrill and interest.
CIVIC CELEBRATION
The fourth of July Stampede COM
mttee of the Missoula chamber of COM
merce has been active for many weeks
preparing program Of entertainment
for the four days of jollity. The pro-

The feature Of the night entertain
ment is to be the illuminated aeroplane
flight. Mcclellan, bird man, will fly
over the city at night, his aeroplane
illuminated. This will be the first
night flying seen in Western Montana
and will prove of great interest. In
addition to this, the committee has
practically come to terms with the
"human comet. Wrapped in a sheet
of flame this human meteor will flash
from the south bank of the Mssoula
river to the north branch of the river
where he will make sensational drop
into the swollen torrent. These two
features promise to be spectacular IN
every sense of the word.
The unwilling of the first monument
along the original site of the Mullan
trail will take place on one of the cele-
bration dates. The monument will be
dedicated to the memory of the famous
Captain Mullan who blazed the trail

pany one of the leading brokerage firms
Of Los Angeles, arrived in Ray Sat
drday to inspect the district in gen.
sral and the property of the Arizona

copper districts of Arizona will see
heavier investments during the next
sixty or ninety days than they have

lion than any other stocks in the whole
country at the present time.

way by the first of the year according
to John c. Devine, president and gen.
eral manager Of the company who has
recently returned from a visit to the
property. AS soon as the capacity of
the smelter is increased, it Is expected
that shipments will begin to go for
ward from the Pinal Development
property, where in addition to about
900 tons on the dump, a large tonnage
has been left in place until shipping
should be commenced.
The tunnel at Pinal is still working

RETURNS
ON AMENDMENTS

PHOENIX, Ariz, Nov, 16.-Practi-
cally complete returns from eight of
Arizona's fourteen counties on the pro-
posed amendments to the constitution
and initiated measures indicate thai
five of the twelve measures passed on
by the people have been defeated. With
the exception Of the amendment bar
ing the shipment of liquor into Ari-
Iona, the remaining measures ana
amendments are still in doubt.
The five measures that have certainly
been defeated are the three so-called
labor measures, proposed by the Ari-
zona Federation Of Labor, the local
option amendment and the amendment
to the divorce laws. The labor meas
ures provided for the abolition of the
state senate. for the creation of q de-
partment Of labor and for the establish
ment of the office OF state architect.
All three Of these measures were de-
feated by vote of~approximately two
to one The local option amendment.
which would have permitted each
county or Incorporated town to vote on
the question of permitting the sale OF
liquor was defeated by majority of
over two to one. A large vote was cast
against the proposed divorce bill, which
was vigorously opposed in some quar-
iers on the ground that 1t was prac-
tically a duplication Of the Nevada
statute. The bill as drawn provided
additional causes for divorce. includ-
ing insanity, and incurable diseases,
and reduced the residence limit from
one year to six months.
The vote on abolition Of the death
penalty was so close that the result
will not be known until after the Off
cial canvass The bill requiring ma
jority of all the votes cast to enact an
initiated or referred measure Is also un-
certain, the vote from nine counties
showing slight majority against the
bill. The measure providing for legis-
lative, redistricting, the workman's 9
compensation act and the bill amend
ing the game laws are still uncertain,
owing to the close vote on each meas
ure. Indications are that a measure
referred by the legislature, clearing up
the statute as regards exemptions from
taxation was defeated by the action OF
thousands OF voters who did not under
stand what the measure meant.
