BERG AND

STEPPED ON THE GAS AND is
ON THE INSIDE LOOKING
OUT FOR A TIME
Graphic Tale of Hoosegow Exper-
fence of Secretary of State Mining
Bureau; Is Not as Strong for the
Livingston Police Force as He Was
in the Old Days.

There are some folks who put W
a "hOller' once in a while on the
Helena cops and constables, but you
can't tell Cope Berg, secretary of the
mining bureau, that the officers here
don't shine like a diamond-decked
diadem in comparison with at least
one member of the Livingston police
force, says the Helena Independent.
And Cope ought to know for he
got a reception at the Old Home
Town that will remain fixed in his
memory as long as Main Street" is
published and Cit fer Home Brunoi''
is the slogan of some of our Yankee
villages.
Along this spring sometime, Cope
land G. Berg became possessed of a
cream-colored roadster known to all
Helena, because the bus seems t. be
parked in front of every place in
town. 1t moves around a great deal
in other words, and Cope usually is
the movee, same as Bill B~reitenstein
was in the good old days when he
achieved fame by riding in his coupe
from The Independent office to the
Old Stand next door. The boat and
COp6 are ucdIiy l~HStpdIdDle.
Now to the get down to the yarn
as related by the still seething Cope
land c., who had just returned from
and the Yellowstone park.
Going a Trifle Fast, Mebbe
About ten days ago Cope set out
in the craft for Livingston, where he
was reared. He hadn't been home
in a year and he pictured in antici-
the dash he would cut when he
drove down the main stem of the
old home town.
Livingston has just finished paving
nearly all its streets and Cope's heart
swelled with pride in the enterprise
of the town of his nativity, as he

t~horoughfare and started for down

stopped suddenly. Then he came in
and sat down. Cope greeted him eff
fusively but the cop seemed up stage
and made no answer except to shoot
a steely glance over Cope's head.
The glance hit the wall and fell with
a clatter to the floor while Cope
pondered.

He had left his hat in the cream
colored car across the street.

and the hardboiled cop jingled a set

Then Cope blew up. He told his

The Lammott family constitutes a
typical example of the genuine Amer

by their neighbors.
Pioneers Descendant.
Mr. Lammott is the son of Joshua
Lammott, who was one of the original
settlers in the territory now known
as Wayne county. The father became
large landowner soon after his ar
rival, partly by clearing the timber
with the aid of his sons, and partly
by buying good farming land as it
came on the market.
Nathan Lammott still has a vivid
remembrance of the labor he and his
brothers expended in "deadening.'
which was done by girdling the forest
trees. and in wood chopping and log
rolling" "Logrollings" rather tended
to be neighborhood frolics; however.

the felled logs together into a huge
pile, which would be set afire, and
after would eat a hearty meal prepar-
ed by the women who had accom-
panied them.
