hauling, and it certainly offers an op-
portunity for everyone in the city to
get their premises cleaned up in a sat-
isfactory condition. The work of put
ting the rubbish in piles in the alley
will be small compared to the benefits
derived from getting rid of it without
charge.
There are many unsanitary places
in the city, and these must be put in
good condition on Tuesday. The
cleanup of the entire city will result
in better sanitary conditions and will
improve the health of the people who
reside here.
This movement is but the beginning
of plan of the city councils to in
stall garbage disposal system. Plans
are now being worked out for a sys-
tenn whereby all garbage, ashes and
refuse will be hauled away by the
city at but slight cost to those af-
fected.
When the cleanup campaign is fin
ished the health officers will make
an inspection of the entire city, and
they will condemn any place which
has not been properly taken care of.

TAX LEVY FIXED


The board Of county commissioners
has fixed the tax levy at 1913 mills
for Valley county. tecever the period
from December /, 1917, to November
80, 1918, for county and state pur-
poses. There is a half mill increase
over last year, due TO the addition of
the Gopher Destruction fund, which
takes a levy Of one half mill.
Despite the higher cost Of every
thing, and increases made necessary
by laws enacted at the last legislative
session, the commissioners have kept
the levy as low as possible.
The levy for state purposes amounts
to SO mills and for county purposes,
1876 mills. Then there is a general
school levy of 4 mills, making total
of 1873 mills. In each school district
there is an additional levy varying
from one to ten mills, and additional
levies are also made for the Hinsdale
and Nashua fire districts.

ESCAPES FROM DEPUTY
BY CLEVER RUSE
Gordon FOlkestad Taken From
Army. Gains Freedom While
On Way to Stand Trial.

Gordon Folkestad, formerly of Cul-
bertson, who enlisted here and went
to join the Second Montana Infantry,
is again fugitive from justice.
Officers are securing the eastern
end of the state for him, and he is
wanted for alleged horse stealing.
Folkestad enlisted at Glasgow and
went to Helena where he was arrest
ed. A deputy sheriff went to Helena
to return with him to Sidney. He was
handcuffed when they left Helena, but
when they reached Mondak they
started to drive across to Sidney in an
automobile.
The officer who had him in charge
had known Young Folkestad and his
family for a long time, and when he
complained that his wrists ached, the
officer took the handouts off. Hardly
had he turned the key when Folkestad
whipped a revolver from his pocket
and told the deputy to drive off in the
brush. Getting away from the road,
so the story goes, he took the deputy
to a tree, placed his arms about it
and clasped the handouts over his
wrists and then drove off in the Of
ficer's car.
According to reports it was some
time before the deputy was discov-
cred locked to the tree, and this gave
the boy a good start.
It is believed that friends slipped
the gun to the prisoner after he and
the deputy alighted from the train at
Mondak.

H0MESTEADERS WILL
NOT LOSE CLAIMS
Men Who Enlist in Army Will
Be Given Protection Under
the New Law.

President Wilson has approved the
act passed by the senate and house
for the relief Of homestead entrymen
or settlers who enter the military or
naval service of the United States in
time of war. The act provides that
any entryman whose application has
been allowed or any person who has
made application for public lands
which thereafter may be allowed un-
der the homestead laws, who enlists
or is actually engaged in the military
or naval service of the United States
shall in the administration of the
homestead laws have his military ser
vices construed to be equivalent to all
intents and purposes to residence and
cultivation for the same length of
time upon the tract entered or settled
upon. If he shall be discharged on
account of wounds or disability in
Cured in the line of duty then the
term of his enlistment shall be de-
Quoted from the required length of
residence without reference to the
time Of actuxi service. If any entry
man who has made application for
public land dies while actually en-
gagged in the military or naval service
of the United States, then his widow,
if married, or in case of her death or
marriape his minor ornhan children
may proceed to make final proof upon
the entry or application for public
land, and shall be entitled to receive
a government patent for it. The
death of soldier while engaged in
the service of the United States shall
in the administration of the homestead
laws be construed to be equivalent to
a performance of all requirements as
to residence and cultivation upon his
homestead.

Glasgow to Helena during the week of
the State Fair, September 24-29.
According to the present plan, this
car will be operated from Glasgow on
trains 8 and 234, returning the fol-
lowing day on 236 and 234. This will
afford excellent service for citizens
who contemplate going to the Mon
tana State Fair this fall. Much Of
this plan is already prepared by the
railroad company, and it is hoped that
the business secured from Glasgow
and points west will justify operating
this special sleeper.

COMPANY &C" BOYS BUSY

A letter received this week from
Captain J. P. Sternhagen states that
The Fort is the busiest place in the
state these days. The officers of the
company are kept especially on the
go, as the first lieutenant was dis
charged. A promotion for someone is
expected in the near future.

BADER A BATTLER

Henry Bader is some battler, but he
will have six months to recuperate
from his recent fistic proclivities.
Wednesday, Bader cleaned up on
Otto Wind and Albert Kerr at Wen
dell. He wanted to get even with
Wind for having him pinched for
stealing pair of schapps, and as he
was drafted, he thought he would give
his neighbors a fond farewell. He
got away with it and was beating it
south when Clarence Hall caught him
near Cornwell's ranch.

INCREASE IN VALUE
OF STATE PROPERTY
New Lands Responsible for Big
Rise in States Assessed
Valuation.

Property valuations in Montana
show an increase of $96,915,591 over
last year according to compilation
of the unqualified returns of county
assessors made by ]. J. Ryan, clerk
of the state bank Of equalizations.
Whether the unqualified total of
$503, ,770,403 Exclusive of railroad
property, assessed at $61, ,043.541 last
year) is anything more than a guess
will probably be determined Wednes-
day when assessors and bankers from
all parts of the state will appear be-
fore the state board.
The bankers, it is said, are ging to
bend every effort to secure a read
justment of the assessment of bank
property from the state board. It will
be up to the assessors to defend the
valuation they have placed upon this
class of property.
Whether the state board, after the
assessment of banks is disposed of,
will probe into valuations placed on
other classes Of property is not
known. In the spring there was a
disposition on the part of the state
board to insist that valuations of
farm property be sharply increased.
In view of the drouth, however, and
the adverse circumstances that many
farmers must weather for the next
year or 18 months, some members of
the board are inclined to believe that
if valuations are at all reasonable,
they should not be disturbed.
The compilation made by Mr.. Ryan
shows the assessment of new lands
is chiefly responsible for the 6,0O0,-
900 increase in valuation over last
year.

LOCAL BOYS GET COMMISSIONS

Two Glasgow boys were among the
list of newly created officers who won
their gold hat cords at the officers
training camp in San Francisco. Ber-
nard Hoey and Abe l.. Mcmahon are
now second leutrnants in the re-
serve corps, and will probably get a
chance at drilling the new conscript
which will be mobilized in September.
Raymond Hartney, who attended
the camp from Co. &C." also received
his commission as a second lieuten-
ant.

Local Draft Board Now In Ses.
sion to Pass On Claims That
Have Been Filed.
few DISCHARGES BEING GRANTED
All Claims Allowed Will Be Appealed
to the District Board. Bona
Eide Dependents Necess-
ary. for Discharge.

With the work Of examining the
men included in the first call COM
pleted, the Valley, county exemption
board is now holding daily sessions,
to consider the claims for discharge
and exemption filed by those who
passed the physical examination and
desire to be relieved from military
service for various rea@ons. The
board will be in session every day un-
til every claim has been passed on.
While many of the claims have al
ready been filed, it is probable that
additional claims will be filed before
the expiration of the time limit. The
majority of men asking for discharge
claim dependents, though there are a
number of aliens seeking discharge.
Just how many Of the men who have
been passed by this local board and
have filed claims with the district
board at Great Falls on account Of in
dustrial reasons is not known, as such
claims do not pass through the hands
of the local board.
The county board expects to get the
279 men required for Valley county
from the 558 men who were examined
on Saturday, Monday and Tuesday.
The exemptions because of physical
deficiencies were very few, and the
claims for discharge for men claiming
dependents will be carefully gone over.
The board, of which C. w. Powell is
chairman and DR.. A. N. Smith and
w. B. Shoemaker, members, have had
their hands full the past week, and
they will continue to be busy with
claims until the time allowed by the
law is up.
The following is list of the men
who were physically disqualified and
also of those whose claims for dis
charge and exemption have been al
lowed to date by the local board, out
of the first 1856 men examined:
