before serious damage was done.
In n statement to the assistant
principal of the school, the three boys

CT n. BRANCH LINE
TO FORSYTH IS TALK
Postponed Road From Belle Fourche,
s. D., to be Constructed to
Tap Mineral Fields

Forsyth-Rumofs ore reaching For
syth. from what would appear aufhen-
tic sources. that the Northwestern rail
road Is going to construct the long con-
templated line from the end OF its
present branch at Belle Fourche, s. D.,
to Forsyth by way Of Aizada, PinieIe,
Broadus, otter Creek, Ashland, Rose
bud Creek and Forsyth. This road was
graded as far as Alzada, Mont, SOW
eral years ago, but the rails have been
laid only n few miles west of Belle
Fourche. Ten years ago the stakes
were set surveying the road as far as
Broadus.
This is believed by persons familiar
with this territory TO he one Of the
most practical railroad locations In the
northwest, owing TO the large mineral
deposits which 1t would make acces.
sible for development, and because Of
the rich stock raising and agricultural
country II would open TO eastern and
western markets. IT'S construction
would also give the Chicago & North
western its first western connection
with q transeontinental road.

on has approved house bin No. 400,
providing for the submission to the
people of a proposed constitutional
amendment to provide a bonus to the
soldiers, sailors and marines who
served the United States during the
World war. The measure Is similar to
the law voted at the last general cleo
ton, but which was held TO be uncon-
s%titutional by the state supreme court.
1t provides that each Montana soldier,
sailor or marine shall receive $40 for
each month of service, except tina
none shall be paid more than 5000.
The governor also approved house

FRANCE HEAVY LOSER
BY RUHR INVASION

London.-The recent debate in the
house of commons. on affairs in the
Ruhr. reflected the strong growing
feeling which has been observed Of
late In the liberal and labor press, de-
precating the governments attitude Of
benevolent neutrality and insisting that
England take a definite stand. not
necessarily Withdrawing her troops
from the Rhine, but informing France
plainly in a formal note that England
disapproves Of the French policy and
demands that the French government
explicitly define its intentions toward
Germany.
Prime Minister Bonar Law insisted
that France had gained nothing by her
Ruhr adventure, on the contrary she
had sustained a heavy loss and 1t was
impossible to prophesy the outcome
He admitted hat the government had
nothing II could propose to the house,
and said that perhaps the absence of
n policy was bad. but to have a policy
which could not succeed and which In
Itself was had, would be even worse.

EXPANSION or BUSINESS

ports on pig iron production during
February showed a new high record

senson of the year.
Both Dun's and Bradstreet's indices

advance in the general level amounting
to something like ? per cent. Exam'n-

observation-disclosures will not release
her present hold on the Ruhr. This
was the reply of General Degouttee,
the French commander, made In a
statement in answer to Chancellor
Cuno's address before the reichstag.
German resistance, General DegOutee
declared, had only fortified France in
her struggle In the Ruhr.
1.-THE object and resolve of Frances
policy in the Ruhr has not changed"
said General Degouttee. "We entered
the Ruhr to compel Germany TO honor
her obligations, as the Cuno govern
ment had come into open revolt. The
struggle on this account has assumed
a character we have not desired, and
we cannot be held responsible for the
outcome. We eeHld not mildly over
look acts Of rebellion and open def
ance, for our security was at stake.
However. we have not molested nor
in-treated anybody here.
"We now have been In the Ruhr for
eight weeks and 1t cannot be denied,
I think, by the German leaders that In
cidents between the troops and the In
habitants have been confined to n
strict minimum. If the Berlin cabinet
had hoped to provoke serious trouble,
II has been deceived"

Misunderstanding In the house or
lords, the earl Of B%alfour. secretary for
foreign affairs in the cabinet of for
mer premier Lloyd George, declared
that his circular note to the allies on
the subject of interallied debts did not
deserve the structures passed on 1t by
American Ambassador Harvey In his
recent speech here.
In concluding his explanation, the
former foreign secretary said that,
from n strictly commercial viewpoint
Ambassador Harvey's statements might
be correct but that 81 for one, take
less of n commercial view of the deal"
"Silence on my part after such a
statement by one holding the high post
of ambassador would probably be mis-
understood" Lord Balfour said In ex-
planning his silence.
Referring to the statement in his
note that the British debt to America
was incurred for other countries and
not for England, he insisted on the
truth of this statement in substance II
not in form, and proceeded TO give
faets and figures in su~bstantiation of
his claims.
When his statement ended. none OF
the peers offered any comment.
