TORNADO SHATTERED
NORTHERN TEXAS.
Southern Oklahoma and Kansas When
1t Swept Across that
Territory
ASSOCIATED Pressl

Dallas, April 10.-One hundred are
known to have been killed, victims of
the tornado which Tuesday night and
yesterday struck Northern Texas,
Southern Oklahoma and parts of
Kansas, when order began to form
today from the chaos caused by the
storm. The injured, many of whom
are so badly hurt they cannot recover,
are expected to number several hun
dred. The property damage, while
many thousands of dollars smaller
than first expected, since the path of
the storm avoided all principal cities
and striking only farm houses and
smaller villages, is heavy.

A STRAIGHTFORWARD
BUSINESS PROPOSITION

The proposition of the organizing
of county Y. NJ. C. A. in this county
which is being plainly but before the
people these next few days is, in the
opinion of some of the leaders of this
movement, a straightforward busi-
ness proposition. Every one knows
that the business advantages and
material prosperity of any country
are dependent more on the character
of the people than any other one
thing. The development of this coun-
ty's business interests, the produc-
tIvity of its farms, and the happiness
OF its homes depend largely on the
mental attitude, physical vigor. relig-
ious convictions, and service ideals of
the older boys and young men of the
present generation.
The county Young Mems Christian
Association in cooperation with par
ents, teachers and pastors, strives to
train boys and young men for places
of leadership and responsibility in
business, educational and Christian
service. Its methods of training this
leadership are through special confer
ences of the boys themselves in sum-
mer camps and the work of volunteer
leaders directed by a trained county
SECRETARY. In the North where the
county work has been in existence for
a number of years it has been re-
markably noticed that the larger
percentage Of boys from the counties
where the Young Mems Christian As
sociations have been organized have
become real Christian leaders in the
universities and colleges where they
have gone than have the boys from
the unorganized counties. This has
been due to the fact that back in the
country communities and small towns
the lads from the organized "Y"
counties had had some training in
leadership which stood them in fine
stead to take high places in the col
leye world.
One great feature about this county
Y. M. c. A. work is the fact that it is
inexpensive in proportion to the re-
suits attained. 1t is what is known
as non-equipment type of Y. M. C. A.
work. No buildings are erected or
expensive equipment purchased, but
the entire investment is made in
trained leadership. For this reason
the highest dividends are obtainable
in proportion to the amount of money
invested. The county Y. M. c. A. in
stead of erecting buildings for hous-
ing its organization use the buildings
already in existence in the county and
the various communities, such as pub
lie school buildings, churches, COM
munity houses, etc. Another great
striking feature of its work is the
fact that it is open to all boys and
young men without regard to sect or
creed. Its purpose is TO help any boy
or young man to reach his highest
ideals in life, not as a separate or
ganiaztion but as a movement CO.
operating with existing institutions
such as the home, the church and the
school The county committee is very
hopeful that the people viii take a
keen interest in this movement and
that sufficient funds will be donated
that a secretary can be employed in
the very near future.

BLAME sADDLED ON BILL

Paris, April 10.-Responsibility of
the German emperor for the war and
means for bringing him to trial by
one of the allied governments, prob
ably Belgium, has been definitely de-
termined upon by the council of foul.
This, with decision on terms of repair
ations, removes two great obstacles
which stood in the path of rapid at
tainment of peace, and the period of
extreme tension is over. Inatcion and
failure to secure tangible results, sue
ceeded by revived confidence over the
great advance, make towards perma-
nent settlement.
Agreement on sponsibilities for
the war is understood to have been
compromised between divided reports
presented by the commission of which
Secretary Lansing is chairman. There
was practically agreement on general
responsibility of the German emperor
for bringing on the war, but division
occurred on whether it was feasible
to bring him to justice before an in
ternational tribunal. French and Brit
ish view favored the tribunal, but the
American view it is understood, IA
vored moral indictment without pros
ecution, owing to lack of internation-
al law as a basis for trial before an
international court. Belgium is re-
borted to have taken a view much
similar to the United States, while
Japan and Italy are partially in ac-
cord with the Americans.

Every farmer in Valley county has
taken advantage of the favorable
farming weather we have been having
and a large number them have
been working day and night in an
endeavor to get their land to crop
as soon as possible.
Valley county farmers are planting
the largest wheat acreage this Sec

Many have already completed the
planting of their crops but there is
not probably more than sixty-five per
cent of the total acreage planted.
Winter rye and wheat are in ex
cellent condition. Alfalfa seems tt
be making a good start. Rain at this
time would improve the range fol

Helena, April 3O.-Rrain is the i'm

cording to the report of the depart

for the week ended yesterday, made
public today. The report says:

amounts to $7.01.

the plaintiff said that to bring the
case in the district court first, as was
required by the supreme court in a
ruling made few weeks ago in an
other effort to test the law, it would
only be appealed no matter which side

LACK OF POSTAGE HOLDS
UP DEADLY SHIPMENTS
Internal Machines Bear Addresses
of Prominent Persons of the
Country.

Washington, April 30.-Postoffice
inspectors at New York City reported
today the discovery there of II in
fernal machines put into the mail ad-
dressed to prominent officials, includ-
ing cabinet officers.
One of the machines is understood
to have exploded during examination
but without causing great damage.
All were similar to the bomb sent to
former Senator Hardwick of Georgia,
which when opened at the Hardwick
home blew off the hands Of a negro
maid and injured Mrs. Hardwick.
One for Burleson.
Among those to whom the deadly
packages were addressed were Post
master Burleson, Secretary of Labor
Wilson, Attorney General Palmer,
Commissioner General Gaminetti of
the immigration bureau, Mayor Hylan
of New York, Governor Sproule of
Pennsylvania, John D. Rockefeller, ].
P. Morgan, Solicitor General Lamar
of the postoffice department, and F.
C. Howe, immigration commissioner
at New York.
The discovery followed an investi-
cation ordered after news came of
the Hardwick bomb explosion. The
packages bore labels of Gimbel Bros
store and were sealed, but did not
have sufficient postage. This caus-
ed the postal officials to notify Gim-
bel Bros, who disclaimed ownership
of the packages and said the labels
We're forged.
Associate Justice Holmes of the
United States supreme court was an
other of the prominent intended VIC
tins. Most of the other packages
were addressed to officials or men
prominent in private life.
Seventeen packages were pulled out
of the mails, but postoffice officials
fear that some others may have had
enough postage and have gone through
the mails
The bomb for Mr.. Rockefeller was
addressed to his country home at Tar
rytown, N. Y, and that for Mr.. Nor
gan to 231 Madison avenue, New York.
Only insufficient postage prevented all
seventeen going out promptly and be-
ing delivered probably ahead of the
one which reached the Hardwick home.
Others to whom packages were adj
dressed included:
w. M. Wood, q Fairfield street,
Boston; w. H. Finck, special agent Of
the department of justice at New
York; w. J. Shaffer, attorney gen.
eral of Pennsylvania; T. Larry Dyra,

TAX COMMISSION IS
TESTING HEW Law
Question of Classification cf rr,rerty
and Taxation on Percentage Is
to Be Determined.

Hearing on the application of David
Hilger of Lewistown for an appllca-
ton 70 ran injunction to restrain W..
A. Moore, county treasurer, from col
lecting a tax of $35 on a motor boat
owned by Mr.. Hilger, will be heard by
the supreme court on May 10, fol-
lowing a suit filed yesterday by Mr..
Hilger, member of the state tax
commission, in an effort to test the
constitutionality Of the law known as
H. B. 80, passed by the last legisla-
ture.
The law provides that all property
shall be made according to the class
in which it falls, different percent
age being required for the various
classes. County Assessor Martier
has not complied with this phase OF
the taxation laws passed by the last
session and the suit has been brought
before the supreme court in an effort
to test the law and compel the coun
ty assessor to comply with the pro
visions of the act.
The motor boat, over which the sui
has statred, is in the Missouri rivel
north of Helena and is the persona
property of Mr.. Hilger.
Listed Actual Value.
He listed it in his tax returns a
actually valued at $1,000, the ia!
on which amounted to $35. In orde
to make the suit proper, Mr.. Hilge
ascertained the amount of taxes h
will be required to pay and has com
into court asking that w. A. Moore
the county treasurer, be permanent
restrained from collecting the tax Q
$35, which is based on the full valu
