Hunt For Missing
Man i'm Jacksonville
nv Assocfated Press)

JACKSONVILLE. Fla, Dec. 4.--The
finding of a mans skeleton on the out
skirts of the city several days ago has
brought to the sheriff's office the usual
anxious inquiries from homes where a
member is unaccountably missing. No
one has vet come forward, however to
throw any light on the identity of the
man who apparently had been dead a
month when his meagre remains were
found by a party of pleasure seekers,
tramping through the woods.
Investigators of the family of 7. r.
Henderson, prominent Baker county man.
whose disappearance several months
ago has never been solved, came here
to view the remains. but the perfection
of the dead mans teeth, disproved the
belief that he might be the missing Ba-
ker county man.

to 1926 bushels or more than five
times the original allotment.

GALLOWAY GIVEN
CREDIT FOR START
Of STATE ALFALFA
Father of Great Falls Man
Said to Have Started
Montana Industry.
| Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Bridger, Aug. 21.-For some time
there has been a controversy az to who
first started growing alfalfa in Mon
tana. The old timers Of Madison
county are unanimous that it was the
late Colonel James e. Galloway, who is
responsible for bringing this forage to
Montana in the early seventies. he Is
the father of Judge Lew l.. Galway
Of Great Falls.
Colonel Galloway entered the cattle
business in Montana nearly 30 years
ago, buying the DR.. L. W. Fordney herd
of s%horthorns, which was claimed by
many to be the first large herd OF
%shorthorns brought to the territory.
At the time Of its purchase by Col.
james E. Galloway it was the largest
shorthorn herd in Montana.
When Judge Lew L. Galloway was
nine years old he started assisting his
father in the care of these cattle, rode
the range. punched cattle and did all
of the other chores about the pioneer
ranch as the other men. He followed
this work until he was % years old,
when he went east to college.
Captain J. V. Stafford of the Canyon
Ferry country, was a pioneer rancher
at the mouth of Avalanche gulch. in
what is now Lewis and Clark county,
is also said to have been n of the
first to plant and raise alfalfa suc-
cessfully in Montana, but the pioneers
of the Ruby valley cling to their story
that Colonel Callaway was the first to
plant and raise alfalfa in the territory.
Colonel Galloway served in the Civil
war with the Twenty first Illinois, ris-
ing to the rank of colonel. During
president Grants term of office he
was appointed secretary of state for
Montana and acted six years, part Of
the time as territorial governor. He
was a member of the constitutional
conventions of 1884 and 1889 and was
the first republican to be speaker of
the Montana territorial house. serving
IN 1854 and 1885. He was department
commander of the Grand Army from
1884 to 1889 as well. He resigned the
office of secretary of state when Hayes
became president and took up the prac-
tice of law.

TRAFFIC IN

the early part Of the last century
American and British sailing ships
found it as profitable to smuggle opium
into the poorly guarded Chinese ports
as it was to take slaves away from the
African coast. In 1880 the United
States and China agreed by treaty to
abolish the traffic both into China and
into the United States; and since then
the American consuls in China have
been kept busy upholding our part of
the agreement.
