Des Moines. April 17.-If it were not
Tor the Unborn enthusiasm for military
affairs which many young men possess
the national guard would never to able
to officer its troops, in the opinion Of Ad-
jutant General Logan. AS it is the
problem Of occurring efficient officers y
the most serious one which the national
guard has to face. q ,a3 y.
Few people realize that the national
guard officers must make a constant
study Of their work. It requires four
nights per week OF study week In and
week out the year round all Of the time
they serve as officers for these men to
keep up with their work. Every two
weeks a new list OF questions Is sent
them. There are between forty and
fifty questions on the list. The officers
have to pass examinations on these and
many OF these questions require from
200 to 300 words to answer. ..-
No Pay Except Whom On Duty.
The officers do not receive accent OF
/ money for their services except when
ION duty. They then receive $6.67 per
day. They are required to buy their
own uniforms and supplies and their
own bed rolls, blankets, when called in
to camp. Officers say they spend sew
eral hundred dollars year in their ma
tional guard work. a'..,. ~" f.-
"You can readily see that it is only
the man who loves military work and
is truly patriotic who will accept an
official appointment in the guard" said
General Logan when he was asked
about the problems of the national
guard few days ago.
This Is one Of our greatest prob
officers. And it is a
great loss to the guard when an officer
moves away, or dies. or has to pass out
OF the service. Our good officers are
studying faithfully four nights out of
the week to keep up with their work.
The questions are made up by the reg
ular army and the examinations are
conducted by one OF it's officers. It Is a
stiff course '$E&~ m
LeKislation is now before congress
providing for paying national guard of :
ficerA $500 per year, that Is those who
rank above captain, and first leuten-
ants $500 and second lieutenants $3.50.
General Logan favors this. He says it
Is nothing more than fair. Further
more It will be q help toward securing
permanent and efficient officers.
General Logan does not believe that
the fact that an ofacsr Awe1 trained
makes him the more eager to enter

OANBuRY HATTERS
WILL LOSE HOMES

New York, Jan. 25.-After fighting
through the federal courts for thir-
teen years 1Ss aged Danbury hatters
have reached the point where they
feel there is nothing left to do but
sacrifice their savings and the homes
in which they had hoped to spend the
few remaining years most of them
have to live.
Within the next two months homes
and savings will be seized to satisfy
the $252,000 judgment standing
against them in the celebrated Dan
bury hatters' case.
Mart D. Lawler, one of the original
defendants, now living in New York,
told Of the discouragement of the
aged union men. The order of sale
of their homes has been approved by
the federal court.
The Danbury hatters were sued for
damages, the result of strike, which
was declared restraint of trade.

Would Organize Regiment

A letter from Lawrence R. Kelly,
acting commandant, of Bitter Root,
calls attention to the fact that an effort
is being made to organize the Second
regiment of infantry, Montana Ma
tional Guard. He wants to communi-
cate with someone who will interest
themselves in this matter and secure
the signatures to the proper petition.
He says:
"The object of the regiment is to
bring the men of the state into closer
harmony, and to stimulate greater
patriotic spirit for the love of both
nation and state. In no sense is it de-
signed to antagonize civic or other mil
itary orders now oper ting within our
limits. Nor has it the purpose of in
terfering in any way with whatever
plans the present congress may adopt
to increase the standing army. The
function of the regiment also will be
to develop better men for the nation
physically, intellectually and morally,
Many towns will be asked to cooperate
in the general plan. y

SEVERE WEATHER
ALL OVER STATE

While we of the Flathead have eX-
perienced real winter weather for the
the greater part of this month, still
there has been no danger of famine
on food Or fuel, nor single case of
extreme suffering from the cold waves.
This cannot be said of all parts of the
state. A number of deaths are re-
portec by the press in the eastern part
Of the state and one man, and possibly
two, are thought to have pershed near
Lincoln, in the upper Blackfoot coun-
try. Coal famines are reported at
Big Sandy, Outlook, Daleview and
other towns along the Great Northern
and 500 lines in the northern and east
ern part Of the state. In Sheridan and
Valley counties some points are prac-
tically without food or fuel and the
Montana railroad commission has been
appealed to for assistance in securing
prompt shipments of these necessities.
Cattle and sheepmen on the east side
are very dubious as to whether there
will be any herds and focks left. The
snow is now three feet deep and many
sheep are practically buried it the open
plains. Where hay can be secured it
is being fed, but it is found hard to get
the stock through the deep snow to
where the feed is. Stockmen, old
timers on the range, say it is the worst
winter since 1886, and say this is even
worse than that one.

NAMED FOR ROMAN

After being minus U. S. commits

named by Judge Bourquin of the fed
eral court last week Wednesday, John
N. Bailey of Roman, being the man.
He received his commission last Mon
day and is now qualified and ready to
attend to any business connected with
that position.
The absence of commissioner in
Roman has been serious detrment and
inconvenience to the homesteaders and
others in this part of the valley having
land business to transact and Mr..
Bailey's appointment will be welcomed
by all. He drew his first case Tuesday
when Officers Glenn and Ramsey
brought Albert Rhoeder before him on
charge of introducing liquor on the
reservation. After an examination
the defendant was bound over to the
federal grand jury and his bond fixed
at $3.50, in default of which he was
taken to Missoula for safe keeping
Rhoeder was caught at the dance at
Jim Griuder's Monday night with a
little less than pint of whiskey in his
possession.

NEWS|N MONTA

Nine persons, among those arrested
at Butte on charges of violating the
anti-racehorse gambling laws, were ar
raigned in the district court. Stephen
G. Brown, Butte manager for the Pos
tai Telegraph company, who is alleged
to have secured the information re-
ssarding the races on which the wagers
were laid, is charged with thirteen Of
fenses. His bond was fixed at $4,000.
The county attorneys Office is still en-
gagged in drawing up information
against others of the persons arrested.
Officials state that these arrests are
the beginning of a campaign that will
surely wipe out all forms of gambling
in Butte.
1nformations filed in the district
court by County Attorney Matt Can
ming resulted in the arrest of thirteen
Butte men on gambling charges, Sher-
if Charles Henderson and a force OF
twenty-five deputies raiding a series
of alleged bookmaking establishments.
Stephen G. Brown, Butte manager of
the Postal Telegraph company, and
Robert Dunlop, an official of the West
ern Union Telegraph company, were
among those arrested. Miss Ida
Thorne, public stenographer also
was taken into custody, but later re-
leased on her own recognizance.
Two city detectives, Frank White
and H. Van Orden, were found in the
Fischer saloon when it was raided and
County Attorney Canning declared
that informatons would be filed in the
district court charging them with fail
ing and neglecting to perform their
official duties.
The officials of the two telegraph
companies are charged with transmit
ing messages for the use of the book
makers. Two of the others under ar
rest are William Fischer and John
Theis, we'll known proprietors of sa-
looms, charged directly with making
books.
The act under which the arrests
were made was passed at the last leg
islative session, abolishng racetrack
gambling in Montana.
Thirteen informations have been
filed against the manager of the Pos
tai Telegraph company and one
against the Western Union Bond for
$4,000 was required before the court
would release Manager Brown of the
Postal, this sum being reduction
from $4,000 first demanded.

OIL AND GAS RIGHTS
ARE SAFECUARDEO

Secretary Lane has announced the
creation by President Wilson Of three
new oil Withdrawals in Montana and
North Dakota.
The two Montana orders, one cover
ing several rock structures in the
south central part of the state be-
lieved to be favorable for oil and gas
deposits, and the other covering the
Glendive rock structure in the east
ern part of the state, total about 1885,
600 acres.
The North Dakota order, which COW
ers the southern end of the Glendive
rock structure, covers about $1,000
acres.
The department says that, although
these seem large, it should be noted
that the total of $4,000 acres less
than 20 per cent is vacant govern
ment land, the remainder being pat
ented or included in existing entries.
Even the 100000 acres of vacant land
is subject to homestead, or other non
mineral fling, oil and gas rights being
reserved to the United States.
Thus these orders will not hinder
agricultural development and they may
retain valuable deposits of oil and
gas in the ownership of the United
States.

NORTH MONTANA TO
PLANT MORE WHEAT

Northern Montana will have much
larger wheat acreage in 1916 than was
harvested in 1915 or any previous
year, according to James Griffin,
rancher and merchant of Chinook, who
is secretary OF the Montana State
Grange society.
About Is per cent as much winter
wheat was sown last fall as was soWn
in the fall of 1914,' said Mr.. Griffin,
"but the farmers have been laying
their plans for a great spring wheat
crop. For instance, one man who mad
never sowed more than twenty acres
has let contract for ten acres OF
early breaking to be sowed to spring
wheat. That may not be exactly
typical, but it gives hint OF the
trend.
"The acreage Of spring wheat will
be fully 50 per cent greater than any
past year, the acreage OF 1913 being
the largest so far. Our north country
