Nineteenth Annual Fair

With break in the cold weather
which has prevailed since last Thurs
day the second day of Montana's nine
teenth State Fair, the best and largest
of the treasure states eXpositions,
saw an unusually large attendance
both at the exhibits and entertain

of possible frosts Tuesday night.
Exhibits Set Record.
Exhibits of all sorts far surpass
those of previous years, especially ag-

Iva. VICTORY IN
N. D. PREDICTED
& >Drmer Senator Purcell Talks Con-
Nc ocingly of Reasons Why Nonpar-
tisans Must Go Down.

Forme.A 'nator w. E. Purcell of
North OAK who was in Glasgow
Monday, spoh very convincingly as to
the coming recall election in North
Dakota. He said that there was no
question in his mind but that the In
dependent Voters Association would
come out victorious, as all classes Of
people were now convinced that the
Nonpartisan crowd could not be trust
ed in financial matters. While he did
not involve Governor Frazier or Com
missioner Hagen in crooked financial
transactions he did not hesitate to ac-
cuse others, and thought all three Of
the assailed would be recalled.
The latest development in his state
showing that the party in power could
not be trusted to handle money, has
been in the case against the Equity
Packing company at Fargo, in which
the evidence which sustained the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the con-
cern, involved the League leaders in
loss to many hard working and de-
serving farmers.
When Senator Purcell's attention
was called to the report current in the
press, that the I. V. AS were about
to back out before election, he said
there was no truth in it as they were
we'll organized and confident of vic
tory. He said that he placed no cred
ence in another report that he had
seen, that the state of officers were
about to resign in order to allow other
Nonpartisans to succeed them, thus
cicumventing the purpose of the re-
call election. He thought the contest
would go through on the lines origin
ally marked out between the people
and the present office holders.

GRAIN HANDLING CHARGES
TO BE INVESTIGATED

Helena, Sept. ia hearing on the
matter of the reduction of grain hand
ling charges by elevators has been
called by the division of grain stand
ards and marketing of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, Labor and In
dustry at Helena, September 26. The
hearing will be held in the senate
chamber at the capitol, beginning at
200 p. m.
Complaints have been received by
the division of grain standards that
the present handling charges OF four
cents a bushel on wheat and six cents
a bushels on flax are excessive in view
of the reduced labor costs and the
greatly deprecated price of grain
compared with the price when the
higher charges were imposed veal
ago.
Charges formerly were two cents a
bushel on wheat and three cents or
flax. Complaints cite as evidence that
the elevators can reduce handling
charges the fact that same elevators
in Gallatin county are charging only
two and half cents bushel on wheat
and some in the Flathead only two
cents bushel.
All persons and organizations inter
interested in presenting evidence a
hearing looking towards a reduction
of the present rates, or their retention
are urged to have their evidence II

HUNTING OPENS
ON WATER FOWL
Local Sports Shooting at Lake Bow
doin-Closed Season on Grouse
Until 1928.

Today the open season for shooting
water fowl commences and many local
sportsmen are in the field after the
birds. Lake Bowdoin and vicinity
SENS to be the rallying point for this
section, as the birds are there in great
numbers this year. Realizing that
on the first day of the season there
are generally more hunters than birds,
most of the local devotees of sport will
wait few days, before visiting the
shooting grounds.
AS all are aware the season now
comedies with the federal law on the
subject. Licenses are required and
the bag for the day is limited to 20
ducks and eight geese. Shooting be-
for sunrise or after sundown is illegal.
There is a closed season on all
grouse, prairie chicken, fool hen,
pheasant or partridge in this county
until 1923. This section of the law
will be rigidly enforced by the Game
commission and the local Rod and Cur
clubs are heartily in accord with it.

ENROLMENT 576
IN CITY SCHOOLS
Largest in History of City-New Feat.
ures of School Work Have Been
Outlined by Faculty.

The school of school district number
one opened on Monday with fifteen
schools operating in rural districts and
twenty-one teachers in charge of the
city schools. The enrolment the first
week was greater than in any previous
year. The enrolment by grades is CIV
en- as follows: First grade n, second
grade II, third grade so, fourth grade
81, fifth grade SO, sixth grade 4s,
seventh grade 40, eighth grade AZ,
high school 1870.
Numerous students enrolled last
year in the grades have not reported
the past week. The attention of par
ents is called to the Importance of
having them in on Monday of next
week. The upper grades and the first
grade is crowded. Several new stu
dents are entering for the first time.
Standard tests will be given to deter
mine whether any students have been
advanced beyond their capacity to
carry the work so it is probable many
demotions will occur the first of next
week. Students entering late will be
at disadvantage in these tests. In
the first grade too many have been en-
rolled for two teachers to do success
full work. AS consequence an age
limit will be set next week and the
date when new entrants will be denied
One of the new features of the school
work this year is the provision that
has been made in connection with the
music department to begin orchestra
work. Miss Thornberg the music su
pervisor is anxious to meet any par
ents who desire to have their children
prepare for orchestra work. The stu
dents will be required to purchase tht
musical instruments and the schoo
will furnish the music books. In orde
that early progress may be made il
this work the parents are urged tt
confer with Miss Thornberg at once.

MONTANA WILL TAX
CORRECT TIME NOW

Eight hundred "self winding" clocks
in Montana are to be taxed this year
at $25 each, according to decision
of the state board of equalization,
which directs the different counties
to find these time pieces and collect on
them.
These are the clocks that are regu-
lated every hour by the Western Union
Telegraph company" but the telegraph
company, it is explained, is not the
owner. The title rests in clock COM
pany back in New England, which
rents them to the wire concern, and it
in turn rents them to business houses
which want the correct time"
The rental of the clocks is SIPS per
month from each customer, it was re-
ported to the state board. 1t also was
said that only those in Lewis and
Clark county previously had been as
sesed in Montana.

Secretary of the Interior to the past
history and present condition of the

Project, and respectfully submits, that
Whereas, that the work on the pro-
ject was commenced in 1902, and, that
while during the intervening years
large sums of money have been ex-

sustained, the project is still uncom-

that they can be profitably cultivated.

That said Newall, as Director, was

personally by President Roosevelt to
be expended upon this project;
That he caused the construction, at
large cost, of ditch on the st.

never could be of practical use to the
project, claiming as an excuse for the
expenditure that it was done at the
request of the Department of State;
That he was instrumental in the
negotiation with Canada of a Treaty

division with Canada of the waters
of the Milk River, which is unjust anc

VALLEY COUNTY is
IN WITH NEW THINGS

Two new products of the soil are
shown in the exhibit from Valley coun-
| ty, in charge of Fred Weigel and C..
H. Richardson.
One is the New Guinea bean, grown
successfully by Dr. Hoyt of Glasgow.
The bean measures five feet in length
and has an average weight of five
pounds. One bean is sufficient for
meal for threshing crew. This vege-
table is not pod, but has solid meat
within a thin rind. The seed came
from New Guinea, and hence it's name.
Sweet clover grown from seed from
the Artic circle is the innovation in
this exhibit, grown by Prof. Hanson.
Valley county harvested big crop
of wheat this year, most Of it on un-
irrigated land. Some of the crop ran
as high as 35 bushels to the acre.
The exhibit has a wide variety in

GLASGOW MEN STOP
AT MILES CITY

Accompanied by S. c. Small, bank
er and old time resident in the Milk
River valley, Publisher T. j. Hooking
of Glasgow arrived in the city on
Wednesday evening combining bus
mess with pleasure, declaring in a
story of optimism that he is Impress
ed in driving through the country with
the fact, which is considered as gen
orally accepted, that the movement OF
grain to the markets is having its ef-
feet on the conditions prevailing in
the country.
The crops in the north country, said
Mr.. Hooking, along the Great North
ern are good and threshing is taking
place three weeks earlier than has been
the practice heretofore. Some excell-
ent yields are reported he declared
with the grain averaging around 2O
bushels to the acre. An exceptional
instance is noted, he stated, where the
crop of wheat ran as high as as bush
els to the acre on a farm north of
Glasgow.
1t is Mr.. Hocking's opinion that it
will require about year for the farm
ers in his territory to haul their grain
to market from the north and south
of Glasgow which includes the present
seasons yield and some held over from
previous years.
Mr.. Small was busily engaged in re-
newing old acquaintances having beer

earlier days of the country and is ia

which he assisted in driving herds OF

as to what is proper for the promo
ton of the settlement of the project.
That his impractical theories and
his connection with the unsuccessful
history of the project, renders him liza
BILE to color his reports, and give your
department misleading information as
to the requirements of the project.
That since the reclamation service
has had charge of the project, water
has seldom been available, but once
early enough in the spring and in no
year has it been available late enough
in the fall, for the proper irrigation
of the lands and the cultivated acre
age has decreased, and at no time
during these years has there been an
effort to foster a sympathetic or har-
monious feeling between project Off
GERS and settlers.
That the construction of turn-outs
in numerous instances has been scien-
tifically wrong, requiring water to
run up hill in order to irrigate the
land; and that such instances and
others, have rendered life on the part
of the settlers constant clash with
the engineers and their assistants,
whose harsh treatment of settlers with
complaints, has worked against the
settlement of the project. We re-
spectfully refer you to the records of
this association, and different trials
or hearings where it has been sought
to adjust the differences between the
engineers and the settlers.
Whereas, the history of the project
shows that there is lack of harmony
between the Reclamation service and
the settlers and between representa-
tives of the service and representa-
tives of the Department of Agricul-
ture, who are attempting to teach set
tiers the science of irrigating the
land, and
Whereas, it appears that the origin
al purpose of reclamation, to settle
and cultivate the arid land, is defeat
ed by ignoring the agricultural ends
to be accomplished, by the present
useless and incomplete condition of
much of the engineering, by the total
cost of the project not having yet been
fixed, and by the officials of the SER
vice not being agriculturalists, but
frsm the view point sf the settlers,
impractical engineers, having certain
set theories to sustain, Irrespective OF
the rights of the settlers and the sue
