During the ceremony there was a
large number of Miles City people In

SUMMIT ITEMS

More winter again. A lot of snow
and ice is covering the range and
horses and cattle have exceedingly
short pickings. However losses in
our vicinity so far have been light.
The Summit Farmers Club had its
last meeting at the home of August
Hamelau. A fair attendance was had
and several topics discussed. Our pre-
sident, John Hughes, would like to see
county improvement association es-
tablished and all members of thecIub
share his wish. Every community
should have Farmers Club and each
club should try to make some pro-
position to improve our county. After
thorough discussion of the PROPOSE
tion, the secretary Of the club was in
structed to correspond with the secre-
tary's of the other clubs in the coun-
ty regarding such proposition and
some time during the summer a meet
ing of representatives of all the clubs
~ tuc Oouuty ououiu Uc uclu III tHo
county seat and propositions made to
our county commissioners. In this
way the commissioners would be ac-
quainted with our wishes and asIot of
good might be the result. For in
stance: Would little bounty on
Magpies result in Kidding the county
Of these pests? These birds are gett-
ing SO numerous that they just about
eat some calves and yearlings alive.
Another item: Would it be best to do
away with deputy assessors? Have the
assessment blanks mailed to the tax
payers and each give in his own as
sessment and mail filed out blanks
to county assessor? In this case the
tax dodger should be fined heavily
and no doubt our county valuation
would grow and the county exepnse
be less.
Such questions could be discussed
in the meetings of each club and at
the general county meeting it would
be decided what propositions to bring
before the commissioners.
Julis Keller attended the dance at
the Hell creek school house.
Carl Burgeson is busy shoveling
snow from around his barn.
Charley Nagel is staying on his
place in our netghborhOod this winter
but makes frequent trips home to the

RESURVEYS OF LAND IN STATE
STATE PROMISED BY THE
GOVERNMENT
Regardless Of Passing Of Title to
Land Erroneous Surveys will
Be Rectified.

| Helena, Feb. 6.-Re-surveys of lands
whether the title has passed wholly
or in part from the federal govern
ment, in townships where fraudulent
surveys have caused great confusion
for years, will be made on big scale
in Montana during the summer during
1920, according to ]. Scott harrison,
assistant supervisor of surveys.
Townships in the eastern part of
the state will be particularly affected,
Mr.. Harrison says. The work will be
done on the federal act of September
20, 1918, by which re-surveys may be
made when land owners apply and de-
posit funds to cover the cost.
Mr.. Harrison says there are about
100000 acres Of public lands in
Montana which have not yet been
surveyed and rising costs as well as
rougher ground makes the cost great
er each year and the progress slower
in the rougher country.
He plans to survey 100000 acres of
public land in 1920. In 1919 there were
1883 square miles or 958,560 acres
surveyed. The new work in 1920 will
be done largely in the western part
of the state and re-surveyes will be
done largely in the western part of
the state and re-surveyes will be made
in the eastern part in compliance with
many applications. Surveyors will take
the field in Montana about April 1,
he said, the men being transferred
here from Oklahoma and other south
ern states where they have been work
ing in the winter.

STEWART CHOICE OF
NORTHWEST DEMOCRATS
FOR VICE PRESIDENT

Helena. Feb. 7.-Several months dgt
an influential Washington state demo
crat was visitor in Montana, "sort o.
looking over the political field, as he
put it.
| While the northwest, cannot hope
nor expect to present winning can
didate for president before the demo
cratic national convention. he said
! have talked, that we can present the
name of someone as the vice-president
tial candidate from this part of the
country who will not only meet with
favor, but who will lend an element of
strength to the national ticket. ]
have travelled pretty well over the
west and the northwest, and | have
come to the conclusiin that Montana
has the man who fills the bill. 1t
is your governor, s. " Stewart. Twice
he has been elected to the guberna-
torial office. He has made record as
an executive and as a war governor
that is not excelled by any state ex-
ecutive in the country. We of the
northwest know him, he is known in
the east, and so is his record, and /
am fully convinced he is our greatest
card for northwestern candidate for
the democratic vice-presidential nomi-
nation"
This was the starting of what is
fast assuming a boom for governor
Stewart at the San Franciso conven-
ton. The Washington ste.-e man evil
IDENTIFY got busy because prominent
democrats in Montana have heard
from him urging that they take the
them that Washington, Idaho and
Nevada democrats will join heartily
in Stewart for vice-president''
movement. Montana democrats have
not been slow to take the hint of the
Washington man, and unless all signs
fail, Governor Stewart will not only
have his name presented at the nati-
onal convention, but he will have be-
hind him the united support of Mon
tana democrats and of other north
western states
While there has been no fornaai an
from Governor Stewart on
the subject, it is the understanding
that the movement to put him square
Iy in the race rs not objected to by him
and that if the democrats of Mon |
tana believe it is the thing to do, he is |
willing to enter the list.

BrOckWay Boys
Get Trimmed

Last Saturday evening Circle folks
were treated to a real game of bas
ket ball between the town teams OF
Circle and Brockway. It was the first
game of the season for the locals and
as the visitors had played several
games 1t was thought that possibly the
locals would get a trimming. But
such did not prove to be the case,
as the score at the windup was Circle
30-Brockway IA.
The game was fast except the last
ten minutes of play and was a lot
closer that the score shows. The
Circle team have been practicing for
only week and this showed in the
team work. At times the work was
good then it would drop OFF; with
more practice the team should make
fine showing.
Brockway put up a strong game but
the team also showed that their team
work would need improving. Several
times a little team work would have
meant gains, but some one forgot and
the ball would get lost.
Rooney for Circle put up fast
game on forward while James at guard
was with his opponent all the time.
Young put up fast game for Brock
way, The teams were evenly matched
as Brockwav had the longer training
while Circle had several old players
that knew the game.
1t was expected that the Circle team
would play return game at Brock
way tonight, but owing to the
weather will not go up. They expect
to play there possibly next Wednesday
The lineup was as follows:

900 bond issue, but reports are that
the proposition fell down. It seems
that $1,000 worth OF bonds had been
voted on and carried some time ago,
and that the board up there then built
q fine now school building, but that
whom they got through they needed
about $4,000 moro to finish paying
for the building, and install good

Chancellor e. c. Elliott, after con
ference with the president Of the
four institutions Of the University OF
Montana, announced that the future
growth of the University would be at
the hands of the people of the state
in the form Of two measurers which
will be submitted to the voters of the
state at the November elections.
One of these measures provides for
an annual tax levy of one and one
half mills to be levied during the next
ten years. This tax will be for the
support of the University of Montana
which comprises the State University
at Missoula, the State College Of Ag-
riculture and Mechanic Arts, at Boze-
man, the State School of Mines at
Butte and the State Normal School at
Dillon.
The other measure is for a state
bond issue of $5,000,000. This money
will be used for the construction and
equipping of modern buildings for the
University OF Montana and other state
educational institutions under the con-
troll of the state board OF education;
$3,750,000 would be used toward the
building up of the University institu-
tions and the remaining $1,250,0OO
would be devoted to the Orphans
Home at Twin Bridges, the industrial
school at Miles City, the school for
the deaf and feebled minded at Boul-
der. and the girls vocational school,
recently established at Helena.
The state efficiency commission,
after a visit to the state institutions
last year, severely criticised the state
for the crowded conditions at all Of
its schools and its lack of equipment
that a state with the wealth and re-
sources of Montana should have. The
chancellor pointed out the fact that
Montana, which ranks among the five
biggest states in size, wealth and re-
sources, numbers among the six low
est in the support of her institutions
of higher education.
The state board Of education and
the executive officers of the Uniyer-
sity were unable longer to dodge the
fact that under the present system
there were no more funds available
and that Montana institutions would
continue in the lower ranks until
some ways and means could be de-
vised for greatly increasing the reve-
nues of the state to be devoted to ed
ucation. The entire financial situa-
tion was exhaustiveiy reviewed by
the state board of education, last De-
cember, and the two measures which |
we're drawn up are the result OF this
study.
The plan OF the state tax for the
support Of the University is now fol
owed BY IL states, being Michigan,
Minnesota, Illinois and /
Oregon. These 1t will be noted have
he leading state institutions OF high
n learning in the United States to-
lay.
