Coal Bulletin Receiued

The Pioneer Press has secured
a copy of Bulletin 621-K, deal
ing with the geology and coal
resources of northern T e to n
county. 1t is put up in pamph-
let form, contains many maps
that give all the elevations and
depressions and the legends are
so clear that one can easily
trace the location of coal for
nations hereabouts.
The maps show outcroppings
of coal along the Cut Bank from
below Birch creek to the Alli-
son prospect above Cut Bank
and in veral places on Big and
Little Rock coulees. Further
northeast a t Landslide an d
Horsethief buttes there is evil
dence of coal in manv places,
also on Headlight butte. Along
both sides of Milk river ridge
coal veins appear and in places
it is about 18 inches thick and
of good quality. Near the Pals
ley ranch on St. N1arys there is
a showing of good coal, but the
quantity seems limited.
1t is shown that coal crops
out along the upper edge of the
rim" In T. 35N., R. 4W, there
is showing of about six inches
of rather inferior coal.

tensive coal deposits in this sec.
ton. Geologist Stebinger hints
that they may be more valuable
than surface indications reveal,
but he is inclined to the belief
that nowhere in this section il
there sufficient coal to justify
it's development except for pri.
vate use by nearby dwellers

such breeding places is obvious.
The important part that the
fly bears as I, spreader of dis
ease has been emphasized in a
number of instances during the
last few years. These findings
teach us that no matter how
careless we have been in the
past that it is suicidal to con-

Now is the time to swat the
fly. The fly menace can be
controlled best by eliminating
breeding places. DR.. l. j. Muir
ply of the Minnesota Public
Health Association has prepared
material which will be of assis-

individuals in anti-fly crusades.

DR.. Murphy says, "a most inn

of breeding places and in this
connection it should be remem-
bered that 95 per cent of all our
house flies come from horse
manure. Other important

manure in the most convenient
place and to build privies in a
most disgraceful way; but that
is no reason why we should
continue these unsanitary prac-
tices. Without filth the house
fly cannot exist. Where they
do exist in abundance someone
or some community has been
extremely careless. T h e fly
should be regarded not only as
a pest, but as a most important
disease carrier. To prevent
this menace clean up this spring

Caucus Nominees
Are Not Opposed
Potter For Mayor, Larson
and Adams For
Council

Mondays municipal election
was devoid of a single thrill.
The caucus ticket went through
almost unanimously, a few
citizens taking a little amuse-
ment for themselves by voting
for different citizens for mayor
and alderman-a number of the
ladies receiving complimentary
votes in both wards.
Mayor S. L. Potter received a
fine endorsement. eighty-nine
out of ninety-nine expressing
silent approval of his admins
tration of the past two years.
Fred Adams was accorded a
like endorsement by citizens of
the second ward. Mr.. Adams
has proved a very able and
conscientious town official.
T. j. Larson, the new men,
Der on the council from the first
ward, received all but a few
scattering votes. Mr.. Larson is
a progressive and spirited citi-
zen and will prove a valuable
conferee of Mr.. Anderson, the
hold-over alderman from the
first.
Thirty-three women voted
for the first time at a city elec-
ton, about half of the women
whose names appear on the
registration list. The vote was
rather light, due, no doubt, to
the fact that there was no con-
test.

The question of the right of
members of the Blackfeet tribe
of Indians, according to the
treaty of 1895, to hunt and fish
and to cut timber in the Glacier
National Park, has been the
subject of much discussion in
the past.
In the letter written by Pres
ton &. West, Solicitor for the
Interior Department, under date
of January 4, 1915, he calls at
tention to Article / of the treaty
of September 26, 1895 in which
it is stipulated. THAT said
Indians shall have and do here
by reserve to themselves, the
right to 60 upon any portion of
the lands hereby conveyed so
long as they shall remain public
lands of the United States. and
to cut and remove therefrom
wood and timber for agency and
school purposes, and for their
personal uses for houses, fences
and all other domestic purposes;
And provided further, That the
said Indians hereby reserve and
retain the right to hunt upon
said lands to fish in the streams
thereof so long as the same shall
remain public lands of the
United States under and in ac-
cordance with the game and
fish laws of the State of Mon
tana.
The Glacier National Park
was established by the act OF
May IL 1910. which places il
under the executive control Of
Cut Bank pioneer press. [volume] (Cut Bank, Mont.) 1909-current, 1916-04-07

the Secretary of the Interior,
authorizing him to make rules
and regulations for the care and
protection of the fish and game
within the boundaries thereof.
The Solicitor says in his letter
of January 4, 1916, II am, there
fore. of the opinion that upon
the dedication of the land to
use as national park, ceased
to be public land of the United
States, within the intent and
meaning of the term as used in
the agreement, and right of In
dians to hunt and fish ceased
with the approval of the Act of
May II, 1910"
According to the opinion of
the Solicitor the Blackfeet In
dians have no right to hunt
within the Glacier National
Park, other than that accorded
to the general public, under the
regulations adopted by the Sec
retary of the Interior, as to the
fish and game therein.

A New Brick Fire
Station for City
Work on the Station On
City's Lot to Begin
at Once

Work will begin at once on a
brick fire station on the city's
lot, in the rear of the Jail site.
The size of the structure will
be 24x40. The Council, at it's
Monday meeting, approved the
plans and made provision for
the building. Jens Bake will
oversee the work of construc-
ton.
The council will make another
effort to arouse interest in the
matter of organizing an efficient
fire-fghting brigade, a matter
that should be of vital concern
to all citizens.
The council also discussed
water rate readiustment to con-
form with suggestions of a rep
reSentative of the State Utility
Commission, who recently
spent a couple of days here.
This matter will doubtless re-
ceive considerable attention
from the council when the new
members take their seats.
