1t is a little unfortunate that de-

CARNIVAL AT WOLF
POINT ON JUNE 3O;
WOMEN IN CHARGE

Wolf Point is not going to celebrate
the Fourth this year, but arrange
ments are well under way for an elab-
crate carnival to be held at that city
June 80. This is being put on by
the Woman's Civic League, and the
program of the day includes a big
parade in the forenoon, in which both
whites and Indians will join, a home
talent vaudeville performance in the
afternoon, followed by two ball games.
One game will be between the "Wol-
verines," the Civic League team, and
a high school girls team. Both teams
have been practicing strenuously, and
the contest bids fair to be an exceed
ingly interesting one to baseball fans
The other game will be between the
business men and the American Le-
gion. A carnival dance with dancers
in costume will occupy the evening
Besides these features, there will be
gypsy fortune tellers, refreshment
booths where favorite dishes of var
ious countries may be obtained, and
numerous other carnival stunts.
The committee in charge Of the
carnival extends a cordial invitation
to Glasgow citizens to attend the Gel
ebration at Wolf Point next Wednes-
day, June 80, and take part in the
fun.

THRESHER and TRACTOR
SCHOOL JtLY I TO 10
At Glasgow-Philips, Roosevelt and
Valley Counties Cooperating
Watch for Program.

The farm bureau Of Phillips, Roose-
welt and Valley counties are co-operat-
ing with the Valley County Brother
hood Of Threshermen in putting on a
Threshermen and Tractor school at
Glasgow lasting four days-July 7-8-9-
10.
Lectures by factory men, field men,
agents and practical threshermen and
farmers, and slides and moving pic
lures on the different subjects will
take up the first two days of the
school. The last two days of the
school will be given over to field dem
onstration with the new machines in
action.
The best of instructors have been
secured. We will have an engineer
from Washington, D. c., Mr.. M. E.
Murdock, the state agriculture engin-
eer will be with US again and each
company has agreed to send it's best
expert to assist in the . instruction
work. Several local expert mechanics
from all these counties will also take
part in the program. All in all nc
man owning, or expecting to own, a
tractor thresher can afford to miss
this school. It would be worth while
for every grain farmer to attend the
school and learn how to make the
blanket test and thus determine &C.
curately if he is getting good job of
threshing done or not. Grain saving
devices and methods is one Of the main
issues of the school and an invitation
is extended to all to be in attendance
at this school. One interesting
feature of the school will be the dem
onstration of an alfalfa huller and
silage cutters.
The instruction will be made prac-
tical by the use of real machines and
parts. Old threshermen and tractor
owners will be called upon to give
their experiences in solving certain
problems.
1t is the-aim of the officers and di-
rectors of the Valley County Brother
hood of Threshermen to make the
school practical and of real value to
every one who attends. The program
will be announced next week. Watch
for it.
The officers are as follows: j. F.
Rowe, president; VIM. Arndt, vice
president; Nels Cotton, secretary and
treasurer.
Board Of directors: VIM Neighoff
Hans Dahl, J. X. Reimche, Peter Ny
quist, John Reed.

COAL SHORTAGE SERIOUS.

The reports received from the Mon
tana coal mines indicate that the con-
sumers of coal have paid very little
attention to the warning sent out by
this commission during the month of
May of this year, urging them to lay
in their winter supply of coal during
the summer months. Our prediction
regarding the shortage of coal is al
ready fact, as due to car shortage
and congestion of freight coal fam
inc already exists throughout the east
ern states, and many industries have
been forced to close on account of the
limited coal supply.
Present conditions indicate an aver
age grain crop in Montana and as a
large percentage of equipment of the
western roads is now in the east, the
chances of it's return in time to move
the crops are very uncertain. The
situation is serious and it is safe to
say that the conditions now existing
throughout the east will prevail in
Montana as soon as the movement of
the crops starts in this state.
The consumer should also be re-
minded of the fact that when the rail-
road wage question is adjusted and
the settlement of the increase in
freight rates, now pending before the
interstate commerce commission, is
settled, it will mean a substantial in
crease in the price of coal. In the
interests of economy and to guard
against the hardships experienced by
many communities last season, this
warning should be needed by all and
provisions should be made to purchase
coal now.

PUREBRED JERSEY
MAKES LONG TRIP

Leslie Sherman is the proud pos
SCISSOR of thoroughbred Jersey heif-
er, a gift to him from his grandfather,
R. O. Jones of the Ticonic Jersey farm
at Winslow, Maine. Mr.. Jones found
ed his herd in 1886 with Jerseys
bought from the famous Hood farm
in Massachusetts. Mr.. Hood, of Sar-
saparilla fame, purchased his cattle
from Queen Victoria's herd in Eng
land and they came originally from
the Isle of Jersey. The Glasgow rep
resentative of this famous strain is
registered, like all of the Ticonic
Jerseys, in the American Jersey Cat
tie club, and bears the imposing name
of "Poet's Patrician's Daisy, No.
453942. She is daughter of the first
prize bull, Poets Patrician No. 11924s
and the cow, j. E. Fox's Poetess No.
811512. This strain is famous thru
out New England for the prizes taken
at state fairs and at the New England
fair.
"Daisy" is a beautiful specimen of
the full-blooded type and can be ex-
hibited in any prize ring in the coun-
try. She will be used for Judging
purposes by the Junior Farm Bureau
boys at their camp next week.

HURRICANE STORM IN
HAVRE TUESDAY NIGHT
Buildings Unroofed-Plate Glass
Fronts Broken-City Lights Out
Damage $65,

For several minutes last Tuesday
evening the people of Havre thought
the forces of bedlam had been let
loose upon them in the form of ter
rifle hurricane. Many small build
ings were overturned, many were
blown down and others were unroofed.
Windows were broken all over the city
and especially on the business streets
where plate glass windows were shat
tered. Telephone and electric wires
were pulled from the poles and the
city was left in total darkness for
the entire night.
The storm came on about 6 p. m.
from the southwest and the wind was
so strong that it lifted automobiles
from the ground and everything that
was not fast was carried away flying
over buildings and carried clear out of
the city.
The upper stories of the Washington
school building were torn away. This
building is under construction, and
the tipple was totally destroyed and
leaves but little but the foundation
that is not marred in some way. This
is big loss.
The storm lost it's fury before reach
ing the city Of Chinook. It seems
that the storm lifted into the sky and
passed over the other neighboring
towns.

NONPARTISAN TICKET
STRIPED and DEBlZED
Wheeler and Arnold Nominated for
Governor and Lieutenant Govern
nor, Respectively.

The nonpartisan league in conven-
tion at Great Falls has done some
very interesting doings to the onlook-
ers. The fight over Wellington D.
Rankin was rather bitter and in order
to cover his case went into executive
session and we are left in doubt as
to what was done. Rankin was out
for attorney general.
The convention is a joint session OF
nonpartisans and the Labor League
and it is not known just which name
will head the ticket at the coming pri
mary. IN earnest effort is 5cins
made to unite the nonpartisans ant
the Labor League of the state.
B. X. Wheeler of Butte and r. c
Arnold of Valley county were placee
in nomination as governor and lieu
tenant governor, respectively. The
convention was easily Wheeler con.
trolled body. No other candidate haC
"look-in" and the old time steam
roller methods were much in evidence
Wheeler's record in war times is cleal
and well-remembered by all gooc
Americans. S. C. Ford had no chance
at the governorship. A. c. Townley
knows whom he can trust and felt
that Wheeler would do his biding
hence the nomination.
Burton Watson Of Missoula was Sc
lected congressional candidate in the
first district and M. McKusker of Wolf
Point as candidate in the second dis
trict.
The nomination of S. G. Ford as
attorney general was made after his
name had been withdrawn and it is
understood that he will not accept the
nomination.
The convention before adjourninp
adopted resolution endorsing Eugene
Debs in his course, and asking fol
his release from prison. The resolu.
tion also demands the repeal of all Sc
dition laws in state and nation anC
release of all political prisoners"
B. X. Wheeler stated when he ar.
rived at the convention hall that he
felt honored by their nomination ano
was ready to make the fight under
their banner "in any party primary
they directed"

were either in sympathy with the wet
interests or too cowardly to announce
that we were prohibitionists. TIE
party cannot afford to leave the plars
out.
"To do so would put the burden
upon the shoulders Of TIC candidate
and then there is always the danger
of ringer being nominated who may

ftheir platform about profiteering. I
will ask the democrats to close the
holes through which profiteers like

concern, crawled with the aid Of an

Mr.. Bryan then recounted the story
Of the deal whereby Wood was in
dicted on charge of profiteering,
and was released by the argument of

He also told of case in New York
of judge who fined a corporation
$4,000 for profiteering and express
sed the regret that he could not send
the corporation to Jail. Mr.. Bryan
said that he would ask the convention
in San Francisco to adopt plank that
would allow the jailing of officers Of
corporations convicted of profiteering.
When asked about the prospective
candidates and whether his support
could be given to any of them, Mr..
Bryan said that he did not like to dis
cuss his support for any candidate un-
til the platform had been completed.
Mr.. Bryan said that he had heard
reports that Senator T. J. Walsh Of
Montana had been spoken of for tenn
porary chairman but that he would be
glad to vote for him for permanent
chairman, as he considered the Mon
tana senator a better man than the
one that was being considered.
He also said that he would be vot-
ing with the Montana delegation, at
which announcement there was much
appleause.
