Nineteen years ago verbal agree
ment was entered into by the two

to be when it was patented and prop
erly plated and Martin erected his
house on the place. Later there was
some disagreement in regard to the
price. Martin continued to live on
the place and Trafton paid the taxes
There has been Is years of contro-
versy. The judgment of the court
was that the plaintiff recover the lots
and the defendant pay him for the ex-
pense incurred.

TWO PLENTYWOOD MEN
ASPHYXIATED IN WELL

Plentywood, July 25.-Last Friday
morning A. N. Alberg of Plentywood
and Andrew Boggie met death in
we'll on the formers homestead on the
reservation.
The men had started to clean the
we'll, and before descending into it's
depths let down a lighted lantern,
which went out before reaching within
ten feet of the bottom. However, the
men decided they could go down and
do the work without serious results.
R. C. Stanfield, who called at the
Alberg homestead this afternoon re-
garding some insurance was told by
Mrs. Alberg that the men were down
cleaning out the we'll. Mr.. Stanfield
went over to where the men were sup
posed to be working but could find
no indication of life about the we'll.
He started Investigating and after dis
covering that both men were dead in
the bottom of the we'll sent for coun-
ty Coroner Wagner and the doctor.
The unfortunate men were we'll
known in Plentywood, Mr.. Alberg be-
ing a contractor here and Mr.. Boggie
has been we'll known character about
town for the past year or so. Mr.. AL
berg is survived by wife and fam
lily, who have been residing with him
on his homestead near Medicine Lake,

WOLF POIT WINS FROM
LOCALS SUNDAY 10 TO 4

The Glasgow nine journeyed to Wolf
Point Sunday on a special train ac-
companied by about two hundred
fans. The train left Glasgow at 1890
and returned in the evening.
The game was somewhat delayed
over a wrangle over the umpires.
Wolf Point wanted one of their local
men to officiate but refused to allow
Glasgow's choice of an umpire, the
dispute finally being settled by calling
on two outside men, Messrs. White
more and Lund of Brockton, whose
umpiring was satisfactory to both
teams.
Glasgow started the first inning in
a real business-like manner, having
accumulated a total of four runs be-
fore the smoke cleared away.
With the quality of ball that Lyle
was pitching it looked as though four
runs would be a great plenty to win
the game, but in the sixth inning the
local team went to pieces and Wolf
Point scored four runs, after which the
Glasgow boys were easy pickings for
them.
Lyle pitched a good, steady game for

Rep. Newman and Mccormick
Will Introduce Bill for Irri-
cation Bond Issue.
TO RECLAIM VAST AREAS
Believe State Can Handle Projects,
Thus Affording Much Employ
ment Insuring Against Loss
And Get Money Back

While affairs are somewhat cup in
the air" as to what the session will
do, sentiment is crystalizing around
an irrigation plan contemplated in
bill which will be introduced jointly
in the house by Representative New
man of Cascade and Mccormick of
Missoula.
The bill proposes an irrigation bond
issue of about s25,000,oOO, and the
plan is to have the state handle the
projects, through a state commission
of experts, something along the line
adopted by the federal reclamation
service. The bill is still being whip
ped into shape and will be introduced
by it's authors shortly.
Which isn't to say that the legis-
lators are not considering the var
ious subjects, especially aid for the
drouth sufferers and providing high
way work, but the irrigation plar
seems most feasible for the future not
only in giving employment yea1
hence to a large number of men, but
because it will insure vast areas
against repitition of the experience:
of the past three years and in the enc
will bring back to the state treasur!
every dollar put into the projects.
There is sentiment for this or {
similar measure in the senate, as vel
as in the house. Senator O'Shea O.
Carbon county is strong for an irri
cation proposition and believes it will
appeal to every farmer whose lan'
can be put under ditch. The fedora
reclamation projects are all right, bu
the appropriations are scattered owe
so much territory in various states
that extended peG?1ess cannot b
made. % .4gt a..

GLENDlVE FARMER IS
CHARGED With MURDER
John Hirt ST., Accused of Numbering
His Fifteen Year-Old Son-BOdy
Found Hanging in Hen House.

Glendive, July 25.-Charged with the
murder Of his son, whose body was
found hanging in chicken house,
John Hirt, Sr., farmer living IA
miles west of Glendive, is lodged in
the Dawson county Jail. A coroner's
jury, after investigation, returned a
verdict that the boys death was caus-
ed by blows upon his head and by
strangulation, not as result of his
own efforts. The jury did not attempt
to place the responsibility for the
murder, but the county attorney i'm
mediately swore out warrant accus-
ing the father of first degree murder.
Hirt will be given preliminary hear
ing in few days.
Parents of the boy reported that the
body was found about noon on Sunday,
hanging by small rope from rafter
in the chicken house. The impression
was created that the boy had commit
ed suicide. 1t was said he disappeared
from the house three hours before the
finding of the body.
Presence of two severe contusons
on the boys head, either of which
might have caused death, aroused the
suspicion of officials, and an inquiry
was begun which is said to have re-
vealed the fact that the boy, who was
Is years old, had engaged in an alter
cation with his father on the night be-
fore his body was found, and that ths
boy also has had trouble with neigh
Dor. Hearing before the coroner's
jury followed.
Feeling against Hirt is said to run
very high, but he is carefully guarded
in the county Jail and the sheriff ane
county attorney do not anticipate any
attempts upon his life.

RESERVATION SETTLERS
TO SECURE RELIEF
Efforts Being Made to Have Future
Payments on Lands Cancelled
and Money Paid Refunded.

The various cities and towns in
this section have taken up the battle
of the settlers on the Fort Peck res
ervation in an effort to have payments
on the lands cancelled, and moneys al
ready paid in refunded to the settlers.
Petitions for relief are being circu-
lated all over the reservation, and the
commercial organizations and business
mems organizations of the towns are
exerting every effort to secure favor
able action on the petitions when they
reach the national capitol.
In line with this, the business men
of Glasgow, Wolf Point, Oswego, Pop
lar, Redstone and Scobey have repre-
sentatives in Helena, attending the
special session Of the legislature to
urge upon the members of that body
the advisability of memorializing con-
gress to act promptly upon the re-
quests of the petitioners. There is
little doubt that the legislature will
take such action this week, which will
give a strong impetus to the work to
be done at Washington.
To insure a satisfactory handling
fthe Fort Peck proposition these
same commercial organizations expect
to send to Washington a delegation
headed by Rodger D. Burke of SEQ
! hey, secretary of the Fort Peck Re-
lief Association, to personally present
the case of the settlers to the proper
persons down there, and to remain
until favorable action is secured.
1t is the general opinion as ex
pressed by this interested in this re-
lief work that congress cannot fail tt
grant this relief if the matter is pla
ced before it in the proper way, fol
the situation Of the settlers is a ser
ious one and relief must be secured
without delay, or it will be impossible
for the large majority of the Fort Peel
farmers to avoid abandoning thei
farms.

SHERIDAN COUNTY SHERIFF
GRABS CONSIDERABLE BOOZE

Plentywood, July 23.-Three auto
truck loads constituted the "haul"
made by Sheriff Jack Bennett, when
he relieved Charles Nau of Outlook
of the wet goods which his cellar con-
tained The "haul" constituted the
stock left on hand when Nau, who
formerly operated saloon at Outlook,
was forced to close on the account
of state prohibition. Figuring the val
ue at "bootleggers' prices" the total
will exceed $4,000 The booze now
reposes in the county Jail and although
the bastile is now prisonerless, the in
! ducement to lodge with Sheriff Ben
nett has been greatly increased, and
the unpopular hostelry may do a
thriving business this fall. This is the
second hall made by Sheriff Bennett
Nau will go to court to recover his
goods.

10 TO 35 BUSHELS

,Kalispell, July 30.-Little change
has been noted in the crop conditions
of the Flathead county the last week.
Weather continues dry and hot with
high winds. Threshing has commen-
ced and yields of from 20 to 35 bu-
shells an acre are not unusual in the
most favored section of the county.
In others eight to ten is considered
a good yield. 1t is estimated that the
wheat yield will be considerably bet
ter than last year. Forage crops are
not so good and probably considerable
feed will have to be shipped in.
