ished job. The negroes were not
satisfied and news came that many
hundreds of negroes were coming
to town and going to burn it to
the ground. But as usual there
was hero for the hour And Lee
county's hero for this critical hour
was Mr.. Henry Bailey, who, mount
ing a horse block in front of Jar
ratt & Rodgers store (now Mrs.
Atkins building) with gun de-
fled the whole band, telling them
that the man who struck the first
match or applied the first torch
would be his, but dead. He held
them at bay until the citizens were
prepared to take the matter in
hand.
The Brooks and Baxter war
makes another epoch of this turbu-
lent history of Lee county's early
days. As / remember, both demo-
Gratis and republicans were for Bax-
ter, and both democrats and republi-
cans were for Brooks. There was
a call to arms over in Little Rock
and responded to, but there was
not much powder burned. To illus
trate the state of mind of at least
some of the people, | will tell lit
| tie circumstance occurring in our
own family. A number of old and
young were gathered together and
were sitting up" awaiting news
from the scene of war. The young
er set got hungry and went to the
basement in quest of food. Found
only a cocoanut; but youth is very
resourceful,- the cocoanut,
put sugar on it and proceeded to
| regale their tagging spirits and
efface, if possible, the supposedly
horrible things going on over in
Little Rock. One lady present had
had chill Everybody had chills
them she was lying on lounge In
the room, not much sick but it was
characteristic of her to be flighty
however slight her fever. She was
aroused by our enjoyment of the
dish and asked for some. We gave
it to her. She went back to sleep
but in a little while, partially awake,
| she called for more. Said she was
so distressed about Mr.. Griffis''
that she "could eat cocoanut all
night, ira, la, la. la,." Remember,
she had had chill.

YOUNG FARMER BOY KILLS
COYOTE WITH BARE HANDS

Scobey Sentinel-Harry Hanson,
~ year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. H.
P. Hanson, residing about 20 miles
southwest of this city on the Fort
Peck reservation, had an unusual ex-
perience with a coyote on Tuesday
of this week. While out on the range
with his dog and pony, Tuesday af-
ternoon, the dog took up the chase
with a coyote running the animal
for several miles through the deep
snow, both dog and coyote becoming
nearly exhausted. The boy then took
up the chase with his horse, and af-
ter a run of about two miles, the
coyote gave up entirely.
At this stage in the game, the boy
found himself in need of a gun, but
having none with him and being of
a determined nature, he decided to
get Mr.. Coyote, gun or no gun. Dis
mounting from his horse, he grab
bed the snarling animal by the jaws

"BROTHER VANS" SUCCESSOR
FINISHES WORK AT ROUNDUP

With the delivery of his sermons
before his congregation at Roundup
last Sunday, Rev. James H. Durand
severed his connection with the Meth
odist church at that place and at once
left for northern Montana to take up
the mantle of the late DR.. w. w. Van
Orsdel as superintendent of the Milk
River District of the Montana confer
ence, Methodist Episcopal church.
The Rev. Durand's appointment to
the superintendency as successor to
Brother Van" was received from
Bishop R. j. Cooke, in charge of the
Helena area, January 5.
The Rev. Durand is a native of
New York state, born about eight
miles inland from Lake Champlain,
in the heart of the Adirondack noun
tains. At the age of three years,
with his parents, he moved to New
York City and in 1884 the family re-
moved to Kansas where his father
took up a homestead, being one of
the pioneers of that section of the
country.
Later the family moved to Chicago
where young Durand finished school
and then returned to New York City
where he united with the Calvary
Methodist Episcopal church from
which he entered the ministry
In 1907 the Rev. Durand came to
Montana, locating at Butte, and in
1910 he Joined the northern Montana
conference.
His first appointment was to the
church at Stockett, Cascade county,
where he remained for three years,
and was then assigned to the church
at Moore, Fergus county, where he
remained for two years.
He was then, in August, 1915, as
signed to the church at Roundup of
which he remained pastor until his
recent appointment to the superin-
tendency of the Milk River district.

SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY TO
KEEP FARM RECORDS

(From Jan. Farm Bureau Bulletin)
The Montana State College of
Agriculture and other states in the
Northwest in cooperation with the
U. S. Department of Agriculture,
prepared a special Farm Account
Book for the use of Montana farm
ers.
The special merits of this Bust
ness Record are: Easy to keep; Sim
pie; Takes very little time; Com
plete; Valuable in finding leaks in
farm organizations; and Helps to fig
ure the income tax.
Reasons why a farmer should keep
Farm Business Records are that they
show what the farmer has on hand,
show his yearly income, how it was
made and why it was not more.
These simple Business Record
Books are being distributed through
the banks of the county and any
farmer can get one by asking his
banker.
The bankers of the county will be
very glad to give you all the assist
you ask in keeping this account
book, also the Farm Bureau will give
you any aid you might desire in
making your Farm Account Book of
value to you. Farm Business Rec
ords is the hobby of your county ag-
ricultural agent. You have a county
agent, now; why not use him?

THE SQUARE DEAL

How much unrest" would there
be in America today if every man
insisted upon a square deal for the
other fellow as well as for himself?
If such attitude of mind prevailed,
the radical spell-binder would look
in vain for an audience. The Boil
shevik papers, spreading sedition and
coloring the news each day in an eff
fort to excite class hatred, would be
compelled to go out of business for
lack of readers. The harangue of
the demagogue would fall upon deaf
ears and true, high-minded states
men would be called into the law
making chambers of the nation.
If the laborer strove to be worthy
of his hire, wanting all that he earn
ed and no more; if the employer
were assured that every dollar paid
in increased wages would bring a
corresponding increase in labor eff
if the merchant and con-
sumner placed their business dealings
upon a firm basis of confidence and
understanding - then would our
much advertised social and political
ills disappear; increased production,
prosperity and a quick return to nor
NAL, honest and contented living
would be brought about.
The doctrine of the square deal
has no place in the creed of the rad
ical and the seditionist.-Develop-
ment Bulletin.
