LEGISLATURE PAYS
TRIBUTE To LATE
JAC0bM, KENNEDY
Resolution Adopted by Joint
Session HonOrs Memory For
mer Member Assembly.
Staff Correspondence.

Helena, Feb. 24.-Recognition Of
the services to the state of the late
Jacob NJ. Kennedy, member Of four
Legislative assemblies Of the state
and one of the foremost politicians Of
Montana, whose death occurred sew
eral months ago, was given by the
house and senate in joint session when,
following the Washington day exer-
cises and the address by Governor
Dixon. the following resolutions were
| adopted.
BE it resolved by the senate and
house Of representatives Of the Seven
teenth legislative assembly Of the state
Of Montana: That in the death OF
Jacob NJ Kennedy, Montana has lost
one Of it's most distinguished citizens,
whose service to the people Of the
state can only be measured by the
duties that he performed in behalf Of
its welfare and best interests.
"He displayed tact and good judx-
ment and a willingness to help every
useful work; he served unselfishly in
every good cause. His genial traits
commended him to the good will Of his
associates who placed the utmost con-
fidence in his ability.
Active In Politics.
'eThey listened cheerfully to his
counsel, and to his personal worth
were their respects. He took. during
his entire residence in the state, an
active share in politics. He served in
the Fifth legislative assembly as
speaker OF the house, in the Seventh
and Eighth as a member Of the senate
aud in the Ninth member Of the
house from Silver Bow county. He
was an influential member and a
leader in those three Legislative bodies.
He was recognized as an adroit or
ganizer. He was an intrepid fighter.
He put the courage Of his convictions
into every struggle and he had the
satisfaction Of scoring an unusual
number of successes. His signal good
fortune was that when the trouble
ceased there was cordial recognition
by those with whom he had clashed
of honorable methods and fair fight
ing. He was veteran Of the Spanish
American war, having served his
country as a member of the First
Montana. accompanying his regiment
to the Philippine Islands.
Tribute To Character.
"While we deplore the necessity
that required his passing from the
fields Of his great usefulness when
his manhood was at it's meridian
height, we would rather at this time
point to his splendid character and
his long life of effort and service as
an example which should ever be an
to those who follow here
after.
'tHis life was gentle; and the ele.
ments
So mixed in him, that Nature might |
stand up
And say to all the world. This was
q man."
"Be it further resolved, that a copy
Of this resolution be spread upon the
journal Of this senate and house of
representatives and also a copy placed
on file in the Montana Historical Lii
brary and copy sent to his family"
Mrs. Kennedy. widow Of Mr.. Ken
needy. occupied seat on the floor of
the house when the resolutions were
read and adopted.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The report
of the naval court of inquiry which inves-
tigated the flight of the naval balloonlsts,
Hinton. KIoor and Farrell, from Rocka-
way. L. l., to Moose Factory, Ontario,
has been sent back for revision of the sec
lions relating to the authority of the COM
mandant at the Rockaway air station to
order the flight. Secretary Daniels made
this announcement last night. The report
was not conclusive with regard to the
commandments authority to order flights
that would take the crew outside the
United States Mr.. Daniels said, and it
was desired to clear the matter up because
OF treaty agreements with Great Britain
regarding armed forces on the Canadian
border or crossing the boundary.
Mr.. Daniels said it had been suggested
to him that the court had not gone deeply
enough into the encounter at Mattice be-
tween Lieutcnants Hinton and Farrell at
the conclusion of the trip from Moose Fac
tory but he said he had not instructed
any further inquiry into this phase of the
case. The officers had patched up their
