LOW RATES ON HAY
AND FEED NEEDED

| At special meeting of the direct
ors of the Chamber of Commerce and
Agriculture this week resolutions
were passed asking that the Great
Northern railway apply for emer-
gency rates on hay and feed from
Eastern points. Should the rates be
established it will assist in bring
ing cheap feed into the country.
Many farmers are in need of hay
and feed, due to the shortage caused
by the dry weather this season, and
cheap feed is necessary so that they
will not be compelled to ship their
livestock to market before it is ready.
The directors of the club are active
and are using their efforts to relieve
this situation.
The resolution that was adopted is
as follows:
Resolution for emergency rate on
hay and feed to Great Northern rail-
way:
Whereas, the unusual drought con-
ditions this season have cut short the
supply of hay and all kinds of feed in
many sections of Montana; and,
Whereas, it will be necessary for
many owners of livestock to sell the
same unless cheap feed can be Sc
cured for feeding the entire winter;
and,
Whereas, it is evident that a severe
blow will be dealt the livestock indus
try, as well as the farming industry
of northern Montana unless extraordi-
nary measures are taken to supply to
these owners of livestock, hay, corn,
oats or other feed, at price which
will warrant them in holding this
livestock through the winter;
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, That the
Chamber of Commerce and Agricul-
ture urgently requests the Great
Northern railway company to imme-
diately apply for and put into effect
as soon as possible a reduced rate on
hay, corn, oats and other products
suitable for feed, from points in
Minnesota, North Dakota, South Da-
kota and Wisconsin, to points in
northern Montana; and,
1t Is Further Ordered by the Board
of Directors of the Chamber of Com
merce and Agriculture that copies of
these resolutions be sent our repre-
sentatives in congress, Herbert Hoov-
er, State Railroad Commission, Inter-
state Commerce Commission, and to
other Commercial organizations in
northern Montanu.

PRISONER CHEATS Law T.
BY TAKING own LIFE
Guy Norris, Under Arrest,
Drinks Poison While On Way
to Jail With Deputy.

Rather than be placed in Jail and
stand trial for grand larceny, Guy
Norris, fugitive from justice, COM
mitted suicide this friday noon at
the road house at Midway.
Deputy Sheriff Beebe of Opheim
had arrested Norris and was on his
way to Glasgow with the prisoner.
They stopped at Midway for dinner,
and while there Norris drank some
poison, presumably carbolic acid. He
died shortly after.
Details of the suicide could not be
obtained up to the time of going to
press. A coroner's inquest will be held
tonight at 1880 at the office of the
county attorney.

CORRECT ADDRESSES WANTED
FOR NEW TELEPHONE BOOK

The next telephone directory which
the Mountain States Telephone Co
will issue will contain the house num-
ber and street address of every tele-
phone user.
Many of the numbers have already
been secured, but there are many
which yet remain blank. The Cham
ber of Commerce and Agriculture had
undertaken to secure the address of
every telephone user and Secretary
Jones is anxious to have this COM
pleted as soon as possible. He asks
that all those who have telephones
call No. 63 and leave their address.
If that is not known, leave the lot
and block number and the correct ad-
dress will be looked up.

planker, from which he expects to get
about II bushels to the acre. Carl
is strong believer in getting his land
ready in the fall and then stirring it
up as little as possible in the spring.
The results achieved this year seem to
justify his belief that one should leave
as much moisture in the ground as
possible at seeding time.-Opheim

ENLISTMENTS STILL OPEN

TIL VI
Secretary L. E. Jones of the Cham
ber of Commerce was advised yester-
day that Corporal Nessly would be
unable to reach Glasgow before the
first of next week. He also received
a telegram that enlistments for the
aviation section of the signal corps

is probable that Corporal Nessly will
be here Monday or Tuesday and any
who wish to enlist may see him at
that time.

"Whatever became Of that farmer

inquired of Mr.. Shaw, the other day.
T remember Ole Olson well. l was
told that he was just big green farm
er and that could throw him with one
arm. | went into the match without
training and I surely had my hands
full. l was never in danger Of being
thrown, but I sure had one time in
laying that big 300 pound fellow on
his back. After / got the toe-hold
on him,-well, you remember the pc
culiar grunt he gave-it was all off,"
Shaw says that Gotch is playing
golf at the Hot Springs links. Shaw

G. N. LUMBER IN NEW LOCATION
Manager Muus Feels Right at Home in
Place He Occupied Fifteen
Years Ago

The Great Northern Lumber Co. has
moved its offices to the Bovey- -Shute
yard, recently purchased by their con-
Germ. The offices at the old yard have
been discontinued and it is under
stood that the stock will be gradually
removed, the place to be devoted to
other uses.
Einar Muus, manager and one of the
owner of the Great Northern Lumber
Co., feels right at home in the new To-
cation, for there he was located fif-
teen years ago when he was connected
with the Kulaas Lumber Co., who con-
Quoted business at this location at that
time. Later Mr.. Mus was instru-
mental in organizing the Great Nor
thern Lumber Co. and has been man
aging it's affairs very successfully fol
more than a decade.
The G. N. Lumber Co., is now in q
better position than ever to look after
it's growing business.

Car Thought to Have Been Stolen
Was Taken Through a Mistake

The Studebaker automobile which
was supposed to have been stolen from
the Minot Hide & Tanning Co. on the
night Of Sept. 25, was located in the
local garage of H. F. Beal in this
city one day last week.
The car had not been stolen at all
Mr.. Beal explained that on that night
he had received telephone message
from some man named Nelson, asking
him to go to Main street to place in
front of Weinrebe's furniture store
and take a Studebaker car to his gar
age for repairs. He says he did this
and took the Studebaker belonging to
the Minot Hide & Tanning Co. by mis-
take. He made some repairs on the
car, which together with the storage
amounts to $110. He has been driv-
ing the car in taxi service some at
night.
Attorney Sibbald is looking after
the interests of the St. Paul Fire &
Marine Insurance Co., which concern
paid the Minot Hide e. Tanning Co
$500 for the lost car. The Insurance.
company will settle with Mr.. Beal fo1
the repairs and will then possess the
car. The case is rather unique.

The Spirit of the Canadian Soldier.
DR.. E. j. Walsh handed the 1nde-
pendent copy of letter which his
sister received from one of the Can
adian soldiers from the front who had
received pair of knitted stockings
from her:
every many thanks for your letter
and for your most acceptable parcel
which was greatly appreciated, l can
assure you.
We are now away from the Somme
and in another part Of the line, which
tho quite lively, is regular picnic
to what we endured at the other place

lot about these Peace at Any Price
people, But thank God, they seem to
be considerable in the minority.
think, don't you, that we who are do
ing the fighting are the ones most en-.
titled to decide that; and believe me
we owe justice to9.our fallen COM
rades and would feel ours indeed to be
ready to accept their sacrifice as the
price Of our release from the terrors
of war. No, we have got to finish
what they by giving up their lives
have made possible to accomplish ano
you can take my word for it, that is
the spirit Of our fellows right today
Just the same as all of you working
and Shaving for us at home, you would
think us a sorry bunch Of fighters il
we returned empty handed, wouldn't
you? We came over here to WIN
and what is more, we are going tC
win, too. You have probably rur
across few of these Peace at Any
Price people. If you have or do, just
tell them they are wasting their time
on that sort of stuff.
The good work of the Canadian sol
der is written in large letters right
across France and Belgium today
and no stay-at-home cranks are going
to erase it. I can tell you, Fritz has
| most terrible dislike to the Canad
ians and very good reason why, too
1t will be good to get back to the deal

honestly believe that we will have
Fritz following for mercy very soon
He has started to whine already.
