railroad accidents, more than five
times as many as street car accidents,
nearly as many as railroad and street
car accidents combined, and more
than twice as many as automobile &C.
cidents. The total number of deaths
due to the use of firearms in the
registration area in 1915 was 1904.
Nearly one-third of the 9O9, 1855 deaths
reported for 1915 in the registration
area, which contained approximately
81 per cent of the population of the
entire United States, were due to
three causes-heart disease, tubercu-
losis and pneumonia.

PLAYING FAIR

Much has been said about the pub
LEGATION of an article by a local news
paper upon the death of a person, the
cause Of whose demise was unknown.
Without considering the evidence
in the case, and allowing his preju-
dice to overcome all sense of honor or
decency. the editor of the News drew
his own conclusion that death had
been due to liquor.
The mere presence of a receptacle
containing whiskey in the house of the
deceased was certainly no reason that
death had come in this There
was a hammer in the room, as we'll as
other utensils which might have been
employed to do bodily harm, but the
News editor overlooked these and Sc
lected the booze idea as being the
most sensational, and best fitting the
policy of his paper.
There was nothing definite about it.,
but it served its purpose of ISLANDER
ing the dead" and placing a doubt as
to the cause of death in the minds of
many people, including the wife and
childran of tho docoocad
1t is not our idea of fair play. A
newspaper to serve it's purpose can
still avoid the "yellow" and sensational
items that only do harm. and no good.

GOOD YEAR FOR MONTANA

In the history of Montana the year
1916 will go down as one of the most
prosperous in every line of endeavor
since statehood was attained. In the
year which closes today the world has
made an insistent demand for the raw
materials. which the Treasure state has
in such abundant measure. Its cop
per mines have produced more ore
than ever before, and the red metal
has been sold at prices never before
reached in the history of the industry
in the state. It's production of the
precious metals has added millions to
the wealth of the world.
The farms of Montana have pro-
duced millions of bushels of wheat
which have helped feed the world and

the prices received by the growers
have been such as have made not only
individuals but communities in all Sec
tons of the state most prosperous.
The cattle growers, the sheep and
wool raisers have received excellent
prices for their products, and the
thousands of dollars which have come
into the state from the sales of meat
animals, as we'll as from other prod
ucts, are in evidence in the growth of
the deposits in the banks in every
section of Montana.
While the winter of 1916 was Sc
we're, there were no large losses due
to climatic conditions. During the
year no section of the state suffered
, from any disaster, but on the other
hand, not only nature but conditions
generally were favorable for growth,
development and prosperity.
During the year there was a greater
recognition on the part of settlers,
capitalists and other seekers after
new homes and locations of the OPP
%portunities offered in this state. AS
a result tens of thousands of people
will tomorrow spend their first New
Year in Montana.
1ndustrially there has been great
development in the past twelve
months. Great plants for the reduc-
ton Of ores have been begun or start
ed operations, and old ones have in
creased their capacity. Additional
beet sugar plants have been estab-
lished, and plans have been consum-
mated for the manufacture of some
of the raw materials produced in the
state into finished products. During
the year there has been employment
for every man and woman who could
and would work at good wages.
For the farmer, the miner, the mer-
chant, the banker, the worker. the
outlook for 1917 is bright. The state
is better known and more favorably
than it has ever been, and all that is
required for the greater and bigger
and better Montana which every loyal
citizen of the state is striving for is
active, sincere experimentation

A BOON TO

The signing of the 64O-acre grazing
Homestead bill means much to Mon
tana. Those ~conversant with condi-
tions predict the biggest influx of new
settlers that has ever come to the
state.
While it probably means the pass
ing of the open range, it means that
every acre of land where title has
been obtained has increased all over
the public land states at least 10 or
Is per cent in value. 1t means that
hundreds of millions. of acres will be
turned over to the struggling settler,
the homeseeker for homes and farms.
Some predicted that the passage of
the measure would sound the knell
of cattle raising in the west, but the
author of the measure claims that by
its passage there will be more cattle
raised than ever before.

MONTANA MINES MAKE RECORD

The value of the output of gold, sill
yer, copper, lead and zinc from Mon
tana mines in 1916 was owe $145,-
100000, which is greater than that of
any past yearly output and an in
crease wei the previous year of over
1862, 900, 600, or nearly 70 per cent.
There were notable increases as we'll
as record outputs in the quantity of
silver, copper, lead and zinc, but a de-
crease in gold output. These prelim-
mary figures have been prepared by
| Victor C. Hikes of the United States
geological survey, department of the
interior.
The mine output of gold was valued
at $4,635, 900, a decrease of nearly IA
per cent from $780, 95 in 1915.
Much gold came from the Scratch
Gravel district and the Piegan-Glos-
ter mine, in Lewis and Clark county,
and from the Rumy gulch and Au-
gust, in Phillips county.
The mine production of copper,
which is Montana's greatest asset, in
creased from 267,231,O14 pounds in
1915 to 357, O0O, 900 pounds in 1916, an
increase of nearly 10000, 900 pounds.
The increase in value was proportion
ately more, owing to the unusually
high ~price-from SAG, 765, 427 to $97,-
461, 900, an increase of over 101 per
cent. Everything was done at both
the Anaconda smelters and that of the
East Butte company to take advan-
tage of the strong demand for copper,
and at the same time important
changes were in progress to improve
the output and the saving.

guilty parties. On his death the prop
erty passed to his sister, Mrs. C. O..
Lezie of this city, and a local COM
pany was formed to develop and op-
crate the mines.
The mining papers of that district
claim that the LaPlata district is one
of the richest in Colorado. An extract
from the Durango Democrat follows:
"James Doyle and his associates in
the Columbus mine in the California
mining district have opened up one
of the greatest veins ever discovered
on the American continent, and they
expect as soon as the weather per-
mits, next spring, to build a mill and
tramway and also an oil 1otation
| plant"
Further down the valley from this
mine is located the property of the
Allard Mining company, which under
the management of C. 0. Lezie of
Glasgow has built a mile and a quar-
ter of road up Bed Rock Gulch and
installed a 75-horse power boiler and
a saw mill to cut mine timbers. They
have cut a vein of silver forty feet
wide which went $l2 to the ton on a
carload shipped to the smelter."
In the Mincos Times-Tribune an
article of interest appeared:
"a deal was consummated last
week by which H. H. Brown, J. NJ.
Brown, Sam Carroll and Mr.. Harris
transferred to the Allard Mining COM
pany 81 mining claims lying adjoin-
ing the company's other properties in
! the LaPlatas. The deal was in the
nature of a merger of properties
rather than a sale, the owners taking
company stock in payment for their
claims.
This gives the .Allard company AZ
claims in one body embracing some of
the most promising copper properties
in the Southwest. Not only that, but
the combined properties make posi-
BILE the development of one of the
largest copper mines in the west. The
company has plenty of financial back
ing and will go ahead energetically
with development as early next sea-
son as conditions will permit"
Mr.. Lezie will remain in Glasgow
for some time making arrangements
for starting mining operations as soon
as the weather permits in the spring.
His work of managing the mines has
been a weight-reducer and there are
many people who will have to look
twice to recognize the former alder
man from the First ward.

tered the house and the wounded man
put up such a fight that it took three
men to hold him while Deputy Teal
searched him. He did not have his
gun on him then, but it was found
where he had fallen in the sitting
room.
Seeing that the mar was MORALLY
wounded the Deputy Sheriff asked him
if he had any word to send to anyone,
but he just shook his head. Teal
asked him his name, and he never
said a word. Teal said: "Your name
is Jay Clarke, isn't it," but he v
batted an eye.

water they loaded him in the sleigh.

was by his side in the sled, and sew
eral times was asked to raise his

On arriving at Hinsdale, DR.. Cock
rell was called and he pronounced the
man had been dead for some time.
The body was placed in the Hinsdale
| Jail for about fifteen minutes and was
then brought to Glasgow and placed
in the morgue.
The inquest was held on Wednesday
by Coroner Peterson, County Attorney
Borton questioning the witnesses, who
all gave the same versions of the af-
fair. The testimony of Charley Smith,
and R. D. Harden corroborated that
of Mr.. Teal and plainly showed that
it was a matter of the life of the dep
uty sheriff or the outlaw. Clark's
bluff did not work.
The shooting of Clark will undoubt-
edly have some effect with cattle and
horse rustlers and others who would
evade the law, for they will under

During this cold weather people
should be more careful in regard to
fire. Hotter fires are the rule every
where and the danger of confagra-
tons are much greater. A fire in the
cold weather is much more difficult
to e%xtinguish once it is nicely started,
than in warm weather. The fremen
have much to contend with in the cold
and a little extra care on the part OF
the citizens is necessary.
