A rapid return to normal cond1

ketfng Of the 1921 crop appears tC
Montana millerS as a reasonable fore
cast. The agricultural outlook is one
of a number of things which incline
them towards the optimistic side
and which they believe will combine
to restore industrial and business &C
t~iyities and expansion. Reports from
the fields reveal crops as nearly loo
per cent; the cost of production will
be tremendously reduced Ger former
years; the volume of freight will be
huge, and the crop will be on the
market at a time when it movement
will give an added impetus to the
other industrial lines that have al
ready started to climb from the re-
cession of a few months.
Montana Mill Running
when the machinery starts, it
will get under way fast and with a
steadily growing momentum" said
Paul A. Trigg, temporary local mana
ger of the Montana Flour Mills Co.
at Great Falls. 81 think there is
every reason for optimism and our
line as we'll as nearly all other lines
are looking ahead with increasing
confidence.
with the milling business, the
worst period of the last year did not
find Montana concerns as badly hit
as those in some other states. 1t is
probably true that the mills of Mon
tana have been able to keep their
wheels going better than mills in any
other part of the country. The same
is true of some other industries. Re-
liable information has been furnished
that the situation at Butte is better
than at any other copper center in
the United States. The impression
is general that the percentage of men
on the payroll of copper mines in
Montana is the largest in the country.
"This is a year for the Montana
man whose faith in his state has
faltered to throw out his chest
a little. In addition to conditions
naturally following the war the state
has withstood three years of drought
and has already beaten back farther
towards normal than many sections
which looked upon us with something
akin to pity when the lowest depth
of depression had been reached. 1t
is a state of wonderful recuperative
powers and it never displayed them
to better advantage than now. 1t
goes without saying, of course, that
the crop is not yet made and there is
still time for much to happen, but
at this season the outlook was never
brighter.
"Our company is now running 10
hours a day and the Great Falls plant
is manufacturing about 500 barrels
of flour daily. With the next crop
harvested, we will Immediately in
crease to- "a hours a day and run to
full capacity. The mill is now turn
ing out flour manufactured wholly of
Montana wheat"

the lines before RenO's command
about 8 o'clock in the afternoon and
fire slackened on RenO's men, the
latter could hear firing to the north
ward, heavy and continuous. They
knew that Custer and his men were
engaged. 1t should have stimulated
Reno to action. Custer was fighting;
Reno was not then menaced, but he
made no move. Later the two heavy
volleys that Custer ordered fired
were plainly heard. They spelled
grave peril and a call for help. How
could Reno neglect such an appeal?
He had 300 men under his command,
half of whom had not yet been en-
gagged. The subordinate officers
grew more and more FESTIVE. Captain
Weir of D troop having cleared away
the Indians in front of him, boldly
took matters into his own hands.
After pleading again and again for
permission, he starred alone without
it toward the sound of the firing, to
see what he could. Lieutenant Edger-
ly, bis second in command, suppos-
ing that Weir had been given permits
sion to advance, put the troop in
motion. They advanced-one troop
to the point where Custer had
been last seen to wave his hat. There
they saw the great mass Of Indians
in action. The single troop could do
nothing.
At last, about 5 o'clock, Reno
yielded to the urgent and repeated
representations of the angry officers,
and marched along the ridge to the
position Weir and Edgerly had reach
ed. He got there at half-past five.
The firing on the hill was practically
1t was evident that, whatever
might have been done earlier in the
afternoon, there was no use advanc-
now. Indeed as it was learned
later, the fighting was over for
and his men, and the Indians

day afterward, Terry and Gibbon
having relieved Reno's men, found
them on that hill which they had i'm.
m~ortalized by their valor. All OF
the bodies were stripped, and all bu:
that of Custer mutilated. He was
shot in two places. in the side and in
the temple. He had not been scalp
ed. Custer had had his long hair cut
in St. Paul before leaving for Fort
Lincoln.
Tom Custer Killed
with Custer persisted many gallant
souls. Among them was his brother.
Captain Tom Custer, who was the
only man in the United States army
who held two medals for capturing
TWO flags with his own hands dur
ing the Civil war. Captain Calhoun,
OF l. troop, was Clusters brother-in-
law. With him was young Crittenden,
an infantry lieutenant. Smith was
captain of E, the gray horse troop.

after two color bearers had been

there. Captain Keogh of l troop.

wOOlGROwGRS PROTECTED BY
"A NEW SYSTEM OF MARKETING

1921 clip have been sold in Utah and
Nevada, largely to representatives Of
mills, although some has been sold
to spectators at prices ranging from
Is to 20 cents, which would indicate
that woods of Montana ought to com
mand from % to % cents. To show
the danger of maintaining the specu-
latiye system, attention might be cali
ed to recent action of at least one
speculative wool concern which OBJ
tanned a considerable quantity of the
Utah woods on consignment, and
which is now offering this to mills
at from three to four cents below the
present market value. This is evil
IDENTIFY for the intention of beating
down the price which would other
wise prevail throughout the west,
and thus enable the woolhouse to
purchase additional woods at a lower
figure, greatly to its own advantage
and with a disastrous effect on the
wool grower himself.
The banks of Montana and the
wool growers themselves cannot be
too strongly urged not to be induced
by a somewhat larger advance at this
time to consign their woods through
speculative houses, as by adopting
this course the final results will be
what the speculative houses have in
tended to bring about in our neigh
boring wool growing states. For
tunately for Utah, it has recently or
ganized and put into force an organi-
somewhat similar and along
the same lines as the Montana Wool
Acceptance company.
"If the wool grower does not give
this forward movement his full sup
port, he cannot hope to obtain any
reasonable price for this years clip
otherwise he should obtain full
market price"

Dodges Shells; Hurt in Race

George Luton, former resident OF
Harlem and a prominent athlete, is
there for a visit, the first since his
return from France, where he served
with a Canadian regiment in the war.
He took part in the battle of the Ar
gonne and in several other engage
ments, escaping unmarked. Soon
after his retirement to civil life he
had a leg broken so ~secerely in a
motorcycle racing accident he prob
ably will be handicapped for life.

now came sweeping down on Reno
and at once attacked him. He re-
treated to a defensible position onc
more and held out through the night
till the next afternoon, when Terry
and Gibbon relieved him. Had it not
been for Benteen, who retained his
agg~ressiveness throughout, Reno and
his command would doubtless have
shared Clusters fate.

Custer Disaster
Concluded from Feature Page


Clusters men, who were riding down
to cross to attack the village. Gall
did not lose his head. Rightly judg-
ing that Reno vas temporarily
eliminated from the fight, he at once
determined to attack Custer. He sent
word to Crazy Horse, who was press
ing Reno. Leaving just enough men
to make a demonstration before the
demoralized Reno, Crazy Horse gall
Hoped headlong down the valley, fol-
lowed by hundreds of warriors, to
join Gall. Crazy Horse took I'D a
position on Clusters right flank. Gall
menaced the left flank. The Indians
we're in sufficient force to completely
surround Custer. In a minute he
found himself attacked in front and
on both sides. The troops were at
once dismounted, horses moved to
the rear one trooper leading four
animals. The men then took up a j
line on the ridges, Calhoun's troop
on the left, followed by those Of
Captain Keogh, Smith and Yates, /
with Tom Clusters on the extreme
right. The last three troops hap
pened to have the best position on
the highest hill. With them was
General Custer.
Met Their End BraveIy.
Custer had only one chance. He
must stand on the defensive and
pray that Reno and Benteen, attack
ing the Indian village, would compel
the withdrawal of the Indians on his
front and flanks. His men, therefore,
fought cody and resolutely, hus-
banding their ammunition as the reds
galloped UP and down their ranks,
shooting and yelling like demons.
The Indians later told of the cool,
deliberate courage of numbers of Of
ficers and men, whom they singled
out for their bravery.
Yet the troopers suffered great
loss as the sun began to descend
lower in the sky and the afternoon
wore on. Their ammunition began
to run low, and the contracting,
whirling circle of Indians drove them
closer together. The horses were all
stampeded now, and with them went
all the reserve ammunition. The
situation had become so desperate
that Custer, in the vain hope that
Reno would understand his peril, at
last ordered fire suspended for a
minute, and then two volleys fired.
Then he must have tried to send a
message through to Reno, for the
body of a solitary soldier, Sergeant
Butler, was found after the battle
half way between Clusters and
Reno's commands. A little heap of
cartridges lay near his body, evil
dencing he had sold his life dearly.
1t became evident to all, as the
sun neared the horizon that they
were doomed. 1t was hardly possible
now that a counterattack by Reno
could save them and there were no
evidences that such an attack would
be attempted. where, in Gods
NAME" they must have asked them
selves in their despair, 'tcan Reno
be?"
Then the end anne suddenly. The
thinned and weakened line of hope
less men, now out of ammunition,
were attacked by Gall and Crazy
Horse simultaneously. The Indians
swept ove them in a red wave of
destruction. A few bodies were found
apart, but the bulk of the command
was found just where it had fought,
with troopers in line and officers in
position. They had been beaten and
killed. Not an officer or man lived
tell the story, but they had not
been diSgraced. There. the second

CHANGE OF THE RuwIrcHEs
Pioneer business Firm Of Norway No
Longer In City's List Of Enterprises

The store OF Ruwitch a. Sons oi
Norway was for many years known
to the people or the range. Our fel.
low townsman, Herman Ruwitch, was
one OF the sons in the firm until he
came TO Crystal Fails. The elder
Ruwitch died and gradually the In
terest OF the firm in Norway lessened
until last week No, 80 was pronounced
on the big enterprise by the Norway
Current. The article Is as follows:
after a period of business life in
this city extending over thirty years,
the doors OF their big department
store was closed and Wednesday last,
julius Ruwitch and his sister, Miss
Bessie Ruwitch left for Chicago.
In the late eighties Joseph Ruwitch
came to this city and opened a small
store and some time later his family
came to him from Russia. BY strict
attention TO business he prospered.
His children grew UP and graduated
from the public schools and his sons
went into the business which also
grew up" His daughter, Miss Bes-
sic, became an authority among pro-
fessional nurses and her name became
household word where suffering and
oft-time distress prevailed.
When the necessity came for the re-
moval Of the business interests OF the
town TO the south, Ruwitch's built
and moved into the largest business
house on the range, since known as
the Joseph Ruwitch & Sons Depart
ment Store and continued to prosper.
In the mean time the elder son, ST.
mon, became successful commercial
traveller but still retained his interest
in the Norway business.
Some years ago the elder Ruwitch
(the founder OF the business) died. his
demise being regretted by the whole
and the management OF the
business fell upon the younger son.
Julius. who had through the expert
ence OF his father and his own natural
ability developed into a shrewd bust
ness man.
Later Mrs. Ruwitch, loved and re-
vered by all. passed away. and the
erstwhile happy Ruwitch home lost
much.
About year ago II was decided by
the brothers and sister to close out
the business and then began the sale
OF the immense stocks OF goods in ev-
cry line and on April 23rd last the
doors were closed, leaving but few
OF stocks unsold.

One thing that has held back the

that Baraga county had not until
lately secured the right-of way for the

question and he succeeded in a short

AZ the meeting OF the Baraga county
road commissioners held on April 10

the deeds come In and the county
clerk OF Baraga county was instruct
ed TO draw the necessary orders for
the work.
The securing OF the right-of-way
makes the full extension OF the road
Just that much nearer.
County Engineer Larson tells us
that no was told by the state high
way department that the road will be
advertised very soon. Owing 10 the
