Celebrated Americans who are again
brought to life in this epoch of the
picture include President Mckinley,
and a number of the more prominent
members of his cabinet.
The action shows the famous con
ference between Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Roosevelt and President Nc
klnley, at which Mr.. Roosevelt's an
nouncement to the members of the
cabinet that the Maine had been sunk
that morning in Havana harbor. I'M
mediately following the furore of ex-
element created by this news, Mr..
Roosevelt proffered his registration to
the president so that he could be free
to organize a regiment of Rough Rid
ers. In strict accordance with facts.
he IS pictured in his statement that
ne would serve under Lieutenant-Col-
mel Leonard Wood, whom he later
succeeded as commanding officer of
the famous mounted band when Wood
was promoted above the rank of col
onel.

ALL BUSINESS HOUSES
MUST GET LICENSE
Both Retail and Wholesale Firms
Come Under New License Act
Make Application at Once.

In connection with application for
licenses many persons, firms, and cor
porations are sending to the Montana
trade commission remittances of larg-
err amounts than two dollars, which
necessitates the return of such remit
tances and correspondence to procure
the proper amount. That part of the
law referring to licenses for the re-
mainder of the present year reads as
follows:
"For the period ending December
81, 1919, the license to be charged and
collected by the commission shall be
One ($1.0O) Dollar upon all persons,
firms, co-partnerships or corporations
coming under the provisions of this
act where the capital invested does
not exceed Ten Thousand OSLO, 900. 00)
Dollars, and Two ($2.00) Dollars for
all business with an invested capital
in excess thereof"
Owing to omissions in the mails
many business places have not yet fill
ed their application for license with
the commission. In order to prevent
trouble and delay in securing the nes-
essary license all persons, firm, CO.
partnerships and corporations, who
have not already filed applications,
and who are engaging in or transact
ing any business of buying or selling
any commodities; foodstuffs and prod
ucts, or articles of merchandise and
farm implements and machinery to be
sold in the state of Montana, should
apply at once to the Montana trade
commission for a blank application for
license.
This includes all places of business
either wholesale or retail.

SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF
PIONEERS MET IN HELENA

A meeting Of Sons and Daughters
of Pioneers was held at the Pioneer
log cabin, state fair grounds, during
which a, number of new members were
admitted.
The meeting vas presided over by
Washington J.. Mccormick, president,
and Miss Lottie M. Rumsey and Cor
nelius Hedges, secretary and treasur-
er, were present.
The Society of Montana Pioneers
and that of the Sons and Daughters
Of Pioneers were declared to be in a
flourishing condition. The pioneers
are yearly becoming less, but the
younger society is progressing at a
rate that will soon overtake and pass
the parent society, according to the
rolls.
Several of the earlier pioneers to
arrive in Montana were present at the
fair. James w. Austin, who signed
the register as being from Cascade,
dated his arrival as 1868. Mr.. Austin
came to Last Chance in the fall of
1864 when there were less than a doz-
en- cabins in what is now Helena. He
came over with teams from Virginia
City in company with the ~discoverer,
John Cowan. Among others in the
party was the late DR.. w. L. Steele.
John Firth, another placer miner of
early days, was also at the fair.
Several relics of days long past
were to be seer in the log cabin. They
consisted of chairs, which were used
for the ease and comfort of the Wis
itors. A rocking chair, presented by
Mile Priest Goodell, was made by
D. W. Goodell fifty years ago and is
in a fine state of preservation. Mrs.
Mile Goodell was the daughter of
Mr.. Priest, who improved and made
a wagon road over what is known as
Priest Pass across the main range,
west of Helena.

synopsis made of the report said that
the report was "a deliberate attempt
to place merchants in a false light.
The commission charges that certain
classes of business make profits rang
ing as high as 62 per cent, leaving the
public with the impression that this
is a net profit" Then this merchant
continues "From this profit must come
the overhead expense, all the adver-
The merchant quoted did not have
Using, all the lighting and salaries"
evidently the advantage of reading
the full report, because the commits
sion in its statement said: "The per-
centage in margins of profits shown
represent the gross profit over the
cost of goods from which freight
charges and operating expenses must
be deducted"
1t will thus be seen that the basis
of the criticism of the merchant is
entirely wrong as the commission dis
tinctly stated that the 81 per cent, or
whatever percentage of profit was
shown in it's report, a a gross prof
it and did not take into consideration
freight charges and operating expen-
ses.
The commission in its report also
made this statement: at should not
be understood, however, that all bus
mess houses investigated are making
unreasonable returns on the capital
invested"
The Montana trade commission
makes the above statement to clear
away what apprehension may exist as
to what its preliminary report did con-
tain and in justice to all concerned.

FIGHTING ROOSEVELTS
COMING TO ORPHEUM

Local theatre-goers who can COM

wal with those of the world-war just
ended will have an opportunity to see
a INSTALLATION of the historical events
which led to the first conflict in the

HIGHWAY COUNCIL AND
TRANSPORT COMMITTEE ONE

This important step vas decided up
on following information to the eff
feet that the highways transport COM
mittee, of the council of national de-
Tense, was to be disbanded. Upon re-
ceipt of this information several con-
f%erences were had with leading men
in the highways transport and good
road movements touching the future
of this work.
1t was the concensus of opinion that
the federal highway council would be
the logical organization to carry on
many of it's activities and to co-or-
dinate the work of highway and trans
port interests.
The Importance of this work to the
entire country has been so universal
ly recognized as to emphasize the need
for its continuance. Also, the great
road building program of the country
is so closely allied with the transport
tation ove the highways that it is
absolutely necessary to consider one
with the other.
The work will be under the SUPER
vision Of Mr.. Charles w. Reid as
manager Of the transportation bureau,
of the federal highway council. Mr..
Reid has been the chief executive Of
ficer of the highways committee since
its reorganization, and prior to his
becoming associated with the commit
tee, was vice president of Rathbone
Sard & company of Albany, N. Y, and
Aurora, Ill.
In undertaking this work, the fed
eral highway council is assured of the
cooperation of the various govern
mental departments that have hereto
fore been cooperating in the work of
the highways transport committee.

FORECASTS FOR AIRMEN.

All interests, civilian and military,
in any way connected with aviation
r expected to profit by a new SER
vice, consisting of "flying forecasts"
which has been instituted by the
weather bureau of the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture. By reason of
this special information, which will
be issued twice daily to the office
of the director of military aeronautics,
hazards involved in long flights is
greatly lessened. In fact, military
aviators are no longer permitted to
undertake extended air trips until
they have secured the latest fore
casts, to make sure that an encoun-
ter with serious storms is improb-
able.
These special weather reports are
furnished also to the naval commune
cation service for the benefit of naval
airmen. The reports given the mill
tary authorities include forecasts for
each of Is zones into which the con-
tinental United States has been divid-
ed by the weather bureau. They are
also supplied free to any newspaper
or private enterprise on condition that
the recipient pay the telegraph
charges.
The need of the service was DEM
onstrated a few weeks ago when a
fleet of military airmen undertook an
extended flight without securing a
forecast of the weather an, in conse-
quence ran into a storm that caused
considerable damage. This experience
was responsible in part, at least, for
the suggestion that the weather bur-
eau supply weather forecasts in the
special manner indicated.
This latest activity of the weather
bureau is in effect a nationwide ex-
tension of the forecast service insti-
tuted more than a year ago, when air.
craft began carrying mail between the
large cities.

There has been some misapprehen-

nection with the report of preliminary
Investigations of prices of merchan-
disc in Montana, made recently by the
Montana trade commission, this mis-
apprehension being due to the fact
that some of the newspapers did not

out by the commission.

MONUMENT TO FIRST PLOWMAN.

Exercises of an unusual nature were
held at a recent picnic of the Cascade
county, Montana, farm bureau. 1t was
the dedication of a monument to COM
memorate Robert Vaughn, who, in
1868, plowed the first furrow in the
county. The monument, which is
made of cobblestonesa and is about six
feet high, contains a brass plate in
scribed: "The first blowing in Cas-
cade county was done by Robert
Vaughn in 1868, in whose memory this
monument was erected in 1919 by the
farm bureau"
