TRESSLER FINDS STATE
OPPOSED TO LEAGUE
Republican State Chairman Says Mon
tanans Are Not For League of
Nations.

John A. Tressler, state republican
chairman, was in the city conferring
with local republican leaders. He is
travelling over the state, meeting the
central committeeman and discussing
matters for the welfare of the party.
He says he finds the league of ma
tions is a much discussed topic in Mon
tana. cat least 80 per cent of the
people, it seems to me, are against the
unamended league and l should say
that a strong majority are against the
United States having anything to do
with this particular league. They are
not opposed to the United States do
ing it's duty by the world, but it is
maintained that the United States has
always done that without any league
and will continue to do so, but the peo-
pie have the horse sense that man
must have who attempts to rescue a

MOTHER MURDERER"
POSTER IS POPULAR
Irresistible Appeal in Poster Circulat.
ed by Game Observation-Disclosures
ing by Charles NJ. Russell.

Probably one of the most effective
appeals to sportsmen of this and 9th
er states that has been issued by any
wild game organization in the coun-
try is the poster "Mother Murderer
issued by the Montana Fish and Game
commission, which is fairly swamped
by the requests which have been made
upon it for the reproduction of sketch
by Charles M. Russell, "cowboy artist
showing stricken doe with fawns
tugging at 1.-THE doe having been
killed by man who kills merely for
the love of killing.
The sketch which was done in water
colors on a sheet of ordinary letter
paper bearing a letter to game
warden, was reproduced in colors and
entitled the "Mother Murderer" Some
exceedingly effective explanatory sug-
gestions as to killing game out of
season was added to the picture and
the whole printed in the form of a
hanger poster, which has made an es-
pecial appeal to the school children of
the state.
Forest rangers, securing copies of
Russell's sketch, talked about it and
schools in Idaho and Colorado have
been writing to the commission beg
ging for the poster.

CAPTAIN STERNHAGEN
BACK FROM FRANCE
Popular Glasgow Man Returns After
Twenty-One Months Overseas
Service.

Captain Joseph P. Sternhagen re-
turned Monday morning to Glasgow,
after having served twenty lone
months in overseas service for Uncle
Sam. Joe left Glasgow Immediately
after war was declared as captain of
Company "G', the militia company
stationed here at that time. He was
among the first American troops to
cross the water and is among those
last to return.
During his stay in France Captain
Sternhagen was transferred to cap
tain of the 5th American Train Motor
battalion.
Captain Sternhagen left France on
August 23rd and was discharged from
service the first of this month. He
stated to a Courier reporter that he
had not fully made up his mind as
yet where he would locate but would
probably remain in Glasgow for the
winter months. Joe's host of Valley
county friends join in extending tc
him cordial and hearty welcome

The annual meeting of the Valley

FAST BASE LALL TEAM
FOR GLASGOW IN 1920
City Will Have Manager and Back
Team to Trim All COmers.-
Hester May Be Manager.

That Glasgow will have rattling
good baseball club in 1920 is now a
foregone conclusion. During the past
week Herb Hester, for years a promi-
nent manager jim minor league base
ball clubs, has been in the city talking
over plans for the coming season with
local fans. A committee consisting
of j. L. Truscott, E. D. Hardie and T.
j. Hooking are at work on the or
ganization and already a sufficient
sum has been pledged monthly to fl
nance the fastest team in this sec
tion of the state.
Glasgow now has the fastest and
prettiest ball park in the state built
the past year by the loyal baseball fans
of Glasgow. Due to the fact that the
team started late in 1919 the manage
men was handicapped at all times in
securing good players, but the 1920
aggregation will get away to a fly
ing start.
Arrangements will probably be made
whereby H. H. Hester will be retained
to handle the club for the coming sea-
son. and Mr.. Hester stated to Cour-
rier reporter this morning that he al
ready had a line on number of high
class young ball players whom he
could secure for the Glasgow club in
the event of his taking over the man.

SERIES OF LECTURES
DRAW LARGE CROWDS

An unusual interest is being mani
fest throughout the city in the series
of three sermon-lectures which are be-
ing delivered on Sunday mornings in
the M. E. church of our city by the
pastor, Rev. J. R. Jeffery.
The first of the series, "The Signs
Of the Times," was given last Sun
day and drew large house. In graph
ic language the speaker depicted var
ious scenes of unrest which exist. The
pastor presented three ideas: first, the
times demanded new ethical stand
ard in business; second, Morality can
not keep the world house clean, so
must be vitalized by christianity; 3rd,
Religion must speak the positive word.
These themes are vital to the con-
dition of the times.

BACKBONE BROKEN,
MAN IS RECOVERING
Eegaining Use Of, Legs After Being
Paralyzed for rMonths.-Peculiar
Case at Butte.

His back broken and paralyzed from
the waist down, Oliver L. Holman of
Bowdoin is reported to be regaining
the use of his legs at Minneapolis
hospital, after he had been given up
as likely to die.
Holman was injured August Is, last
year and was helpless when taken to
a Malta hospital. 1t was learned that
two of the vertebrae were fractured
and the spinal cord injured. His friends
had no idea he would ever be able to
walk again, if he lived.
The case was reported to the state
accident board and the man at the
suggestion of the employer, was sent
to Minneapolis specialist where he
has since remained, receiving treat
ment, the while compensation is being
paid. The attending physician now re-
ports that Holman is able to get about
by means of crutches.
A peculiar case has been reported
to the board from Butte, where w.
R. Macdonald, an engineer of an cleo
tric car, injured May 25, this year,
and apparently recovered, has been ta-
ken to hospital and is now slowly
recovering from mysterious ailment,
which about July Is left his mind al
most blank for week and brought
him under the care of physicians.
Macdonald was driving ore cars up
an incline at the Timber Butte Mill
ing company mine, when two cars at
the top broke loose and crashed down
the incline into him. He was badly
shaken up and suffered scalp wound,
but was not injured internally. He was
treated and shortly appeared to have
entirely recovered when attacked by
lapse of memory He is being paid
compensation but the employing COM
pany says he is dissatisfied with the
amount.

MONTANA BAKERS Are
LIABLE TO PROSECUTION
Secretary of State After Bakeries
Selling Short Weight Loaves.-
Auditors to Make Tests.

Bread of every bakery in Montana
is to be given a test weight at once
to discover if loaves are being sold
which fail to conform to the legal STAN
dard, according to an order issued
Saturday by Secretary of State Chas.
T. Stewart, who is ex-officio state seal
er of weights and measures. The
tests will be conducted in each coun-
ty by the deputy sealers of weights
and measures. In counties which have
auditors, this duty will fall upon the
holder of that office. In others the
work will be done by the county clerk.
Mr.. Stewards order was issued fol-
lowing receipt of complaints of alleg-
ed short weighing from different To-
calties. The complaints originally
were sent to the Montana trade COM
mission, which is in charge of admin
istration of the state "profiteer" law.
The department of the secretary of
state has jurisdiction in short-weight
cases, however, and the complaints
were turned over to Mr.. Stewart.
Chapter -155 of the session laws
of the Sixteenth legislative assembly
establishes the following legal weights
for bread, which shall be net weights
eight hours after baking: "One pound
and one-half pounds, two pounds, three
pounds, four pounds, five pounds, six
pounds, or other multiple of pound
weights"
Variation at the rate of one ounce
per pound over or under the foregoing
unit weights are to be permitted in
individual loaves, but the average net
weight of not less than 25 loaves of
any one weight must not be less than
the weight prescribed.
Penalty for the violation of any of
the provisions of the law establishing
standard bread weights is placed at
not less than $40 nor more than $1OO
for each offense. Each sale consti-
tutes a separate offense, according to
section of the law.

first name. and laugh that great laugh
of his at recollections of days far
past. Yellowstone county listened
while Theodore Roosevelt's clear words
ripped the cloak of hypocrisy from
radicalism and exposed the grim,
threatening specter it covered. Yel-
lowstone county saw Roosevelt reach
down from the platform of honor and
shake the hand of broncho-buster
who had just ridden fractions horse
to subjection. And Yellowstone coun-
ty knew Roosevelt was having a bully
time, and Yellowstone county was glad.
And then Theodore Roosevelt pass
ed on to that tragic night when he
went to sleep in his home and never
awoke again.
And Yellowstone county owes a du-
ty. Not to Theodore Roosevelt es-
pecially, but to itself. For, if l may
paraphrase the words of Lincoln, we
cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate,
we cannot hallow this mans memory;
his brave deeds have consecrated it far
above our power to add or detract.
To the name of Theodore Roosevelt
honor will be paid as long as the world
shall endure in the cosmic scheme, for
he is of the immortals. But it is a
community far lacking in American
ism that would permit the coming gen.
erations to arise without some con-
crete monument before them to remind
them that there was a man whose BIZ
ography should be studied, whose code
should be the code of every person.
Yellowstone county's duty, in the in
terests of higher citizenship, is to con-
tribute to such a memorial.
1t is my sincere belief that Montana
will be among the first of the states
to raise her contribution to the ma
tional fund. Monts- y. :a.'57-quota is $685.
900. The campaign is going forward
with spirit that is gratifying, but
not surprising. For Montana does all
hings of the kind with dash and verve;
and there is additional incentive in
this, movement for the perpetuating
of the teachings of one of the greatest
men who ever lived, a man who loved
Montana and who was by Montana
we'll beloved.
Tentative plans are for the erec-
tion of memorial monument in Wash
ington, D. c., and for the creation of
national memorial reservation at
Sycamore Hill, Long Island, the
Roosevelt home. The campaign to
raise $5OOO,OO0 in the United States
will be brought to close on October
27.
The following chairmen have been
appointed for the districts in Valley
county and the quotas for each dis
trict follow the name:
Glasgow, R. M. Lewis .-. $4,000
Nashua, H. A. Sampson ...... $500
Opheim, F. F. Smith ............... $500

VALLEY COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES

Miss Olivia Forster, deputy county
superintendent, has been very busy
visiting schools during the last month,
reaching thirty-six thus far. A report
of each one calling attention to need
ed improvements in building and
equipment has been sent to each board
of trustees, and it is hoped that they
will put forth every effort toward ma
king some or all of the suggested
changes.
A strenuous campaign is being wag
ed over the state for better attend
ance in our schools. To this end an
attendance survey is being made by
the teachers, who are reporting all
children between the ages of eight and
sixteen who are not in school. Reports
have been received from about half
of the teachers and they show quite
a number of children not in attend
ance. Parents, see that your children
attend school regularly during the en-
tire time that school is in session.
In some schools the attendance is
very gratifying. The billiard and Riv-
erview schools in school district No.
/ reports per cent of attendance of
100, and the Baylor school in school
district No. 8 per cent Of 80.
The United States geological sur
vey has prepared number of maps
of "The New Europe" giving the
boundaries as nearly as possible, of
the European countries as determined
by the peace conference. Our federal
reserve district has only a limited
number for distribution, and these are
to be given out as the result of
thrift essay contest which is now be-
ing carried on in the schools of the
county. The names of the schools
winning the maps will be published
later.
A series of teachers meetings has
been planned for the week beginning
October goth. The schedule of places
is as follows: Rosedale, October goth;

drowning man get him around the
neck or both will drown. But the
radical friends of the league appear
to be willing to do that very thing
with this country.
81 am further satisfied that the
people of Montana are anxious for a
change of administration and while l
have not heard them say whether they
preferred General Wood, Hiram John
son or some other, the republican par
ty is full of good timber of presiden-
tial size and no difficulty will be ex-
perienced in agreeing on the man who
will be able to give the people the re-
lief they so much look for"
