more, he declares, he will not marry
to escape the tax. More than that, so
wrought up is he over the action OF
the legislature that he affirms with
much vehemence that he won't marry
anybody under any circumstances,
and he therefore allows his photo
graph to be published for those who
want to criticise to do so. Others,
he says. can do as they please.
Atzinger is a we'll known bachelor
and man-about-town of Fort Benton.
He is also very much of man-about-
the-country. as in his capacity as
state fair director for Chouteau coun-
ty he has gathered the exhibits and
arranged for the Chouteau county
booth at the annual fair at Helena.
In 1917 he made picture frame out
of seed grain that attracted wide at
tention. In fact he has been one OF
the most active state fair directors
in Montana.
Hardly had Atzinger made his
ringing statement of defiance against
the bachelors tax law than he began
to receive letters-mail bags full OF
them-from angry old maids and
The Powder River County examiner and the Broadus independent., 1921-05-27

and were sentenced to be hanged.
Young received a life sentence, and
Stevens, who seemed to have really
taken no part in the attack, had all
his good behavior time revoked and
served his full original term. Also
he and Young put in a period in the
dungeon.
When the death sentence was
about to be passed on Rock he was
asked If he had anything to say and
he defiantly answered "Yes, make
it as soon as you can He was
hanged in the penitentiary yard on
the morning of June Is, 1908. He
maintained his defiant attitude until
the time came to go to the gallOws
when he began to weaken and could
hardly stand up. and when the moose
was placed around his neck he all
but collapsed.
Hayes secured an appeal and his
case was heard by the higher court,
which affirmed the sentence passed
upon him by the district court and
he was hanged in the penitentiary
yard on the morning of April 2,
1909.
Hayes met his fate bravely and
walked to the gallows firmly and un-
aided, and, looking up, stepped dir
ectly into place beneath the rope.
The only change he showed was when
the moose was placed around his
neck his face grew a shade whitcr.
When asked if he had anything to
say he shook his head, but did not
speak.
John Robinson, the deputy, who
| was murdered, was man loved by
all who knew him as citizen and
by majority of the prisoners who
knew him as guard. Their verdict
as to the punishment of Rock and
Hayes was that they got just what
they deserved and many Of them
said that Young and Stevens should
have got the same.

J. H. Bondy of Great Falls was last
week appointed state boiler inspect
or, succeeding p. H. Pracer of Bill
ings. The appointment was made by
the industrial accident board, con-
sisting of A. E. Spriggs, chairman:
George P. Porter, state auditor, and
Chester A. Davis, commissioner of
agriculture. Bondy is to take office
on May Is.
Bondy first came to Montana in
1887. He went back to Minnesota
and in 1892 returned to Montana,
coming to Helena. In 1893 he went
to Great Falls as foreman Of the
boiler shops at the reduction plant.
Then he became foreman for the
Great Falls Iron Works, leaving the
concern in 1918 to enter business for
himself and he is so engaged now.
His qualifications are such as to
make him an unusually valuable man
to the state industrial accident board,
his expert knowledge of machinery
being a great asset in the work.

IfNh, WAD some power the giftie
~ gle u.s." to find words to con-
vey the glories of the modern
blouse. Borrowing the language of an
old English chronicle of the early Six
teenth century, We would describe the
modern blouse as "Some of cloth,
silk, velvet, taffeta and such like,
Some short, reaching to the
glrdIestead or waist, some to the
knees. Then they are guarded with
velvet guards, or else faced with cost
ly lace, either of gold or silver; some
embroidered with pearl" All this,
and more is true of the blouse of to-
day
An ideal fashion has come to pass,
that of keeping the skirt and suit coat
classically simple, reserving wealth of
color, Of establishment, of extraordl.
nary handicraft for the under blouse
Thus the woman of fashion goes de.

dress to a degree, to all outward ap-
pearance when en- route to matinee,

lish what have to say, neverthe-
less. The people l am really desir-
Gus of Addressing are all the moth
ers in Ashland
refer to the recent more-than-
usual agitation toward changing our
little Ashland town, that at present
might be likened to a fresh, inno-
cent girl, into a mature and also
blase beauty of a tourist center. :"
It's curious, to the average observer,
who has time to spend a few min
utes in the much-neglected business
of thinking" how the hard unin-
telligence of the modern mind is
easily led astray by wiley sugges-
ton. can think of no other rea-
son than that Ashland Cat presentl
is an essentially religious town, why
the general public should fall for
WA NeSu Cle'eI DluliCdl Su6Sea-
ton, zone thing thou lackest," and
its fOllow-up Of cOmmercializing the
local beauty of scenery and purity
of water that God put there without
any thought of making lot of mon
ey out of it. Seems to me if Cpd
was here on earth He'd be satisfied
with decent living, and wouldn't
be so almighty anxious to get rich
particularly not get1rich-quick.
About six centuries before that
quotation about Zone thing thou
lackestF was written, an old fellow
by the name of Aesop wrote lot
of fables-and strange to say, they
still make good reading. One of
them goes like this: A dog with a
piece of meat in his mouth was
crossing stream of water on a mar
row plank. 1t wasn't a very large
stream-probably something like
Ashland creek-and the water was
quiet but deep just below the plank.
The dog saw his own reflection in
the water, and naturally the reflec-
tion of the piece of meat in the
water was much larger than the ac-
tual, real piece which he had in his
mouth SO the dog in his eagerness
to grasp the larger, illusive piece of
meat, dropped the real piece in the
water, where 1t quickly sank beyond
recovery, and so lost both sub
stance and shadow.
Now, it seems to ME, Mr.. Editor,
that that fable applies to me and
the several other hundreds of moth
ers in Ashland who are engaged in
the business OF raising boys and
girls. At present this town can't be
beat for good clean place to raise
a family in. That is Its substance.
Remember. I'm not talking about
making money. Pm talking about
the moral and physical atmosphere
of the place
The Women's Civic improvement
club has a motto attached to their
salvage tent that reads, Help make
Ashland the best home town in
Southern Oregon" Well, let me tell
you, you won't be doing that by put
ting up a big hotel and otherwise
it a tourist center" and
I'll tell you why:
The writer has been in four not
ed American health resorts. They
are Hot Springs, Ark, Hot Springs, |
Mo-. Hot Springs. s. D., and Colo
rado Springs, Colo. All four have
large tourist hotels. all four have
had their waters commerciallzed.
True, in all Of them the hotels and
the local tradespelope were making J
