final de nuestra intrevista fue bu-
f0nica irrespectuosa para con nos

bras del Sr. Abril al traer alli el
asunto de la opinion del Juez Odlin
En- cuanto sus observaciones
respecto 10 campaia de los diarios
que han salido en- defersa de In rnu-
jer portorriqueha, podemos asegu-
rarle que no hemos intervenido en-
ella: tenemos un verdadero concepto
de nuestra personalidad para TO lie
gar a ser instrumentos de Ia poll
tiea partidarista.
Pasada la entrevista pesadas
sus palabras hemos llegado la con-
cluSi0n, este no deja lugar duda,
que usted, sefior Barcelo, aun no
ha llegado darse exacta cuenta
dc la posici6n adoptada por Ia mu-
jer moralmente cristiana, hacienda
uso de sus derechos ciudadanOs, y
que ustcd al empenar su palabra a
las damas sufragistas, no ha actua-
do dentro de las condolences que
requierc la palabra empenada por
I'm caballero de su range y honora-
bilidad.
Comprendemos que usted actu6
baio la impression nerviosa que lc
produjo nuestro reclamo para que
cumpliera su programa, pero los
que tanto resisten en- conceder los
derechos politicos la mujer del
pals por considerable impreparada
deben tener presente que la meJor
muestra de preparation es saberse
gobernarse a 81 mismo. Un mentor,
debe actuar en- conciencia para que
Sc le anne y respete, pero 81 la pros
tituye y claudica por sistema, en-
onces abdica de su cohciencia ha-
iendo uso de su autoridad salts

RECLAMATION SETTLERS
TO BE EASED OF DEBTS

Carrying out of the principal re-
concentrations of Secretary of the
Interior Works fact-finding COM
mittee, Commissioner Mead of the
bureau of reclamation has ordered
a complete survey of government
reclamation projects to determine
the financial condition of the wa
ter users and fix the irrigable
areas against which charges may
be assessed.
The fact-finding committee has
recommended that the government
remit charge of $27, 100000 repre-
senting assessments due reclama-
ton farmers who have settled on
worthless lands. Congressional
action, however, win be necessary
before these charges can be thrown
out and also for fixing future
charges ON the basis of the relative
agricultural return of the lands.
In addition to the survey. COM
missioner Mead authorized field

by the people when they came into

THE miners would come to town
on Sundays to buy provisions and
whiskey enough to last them per-
haps week. One Sunday | saw
as many as so or 100 drunk men
on the main street of Virginia City,
fighting. No arrests were made
as there was no law, no court of
any kind, no officers, only the vigil
lance committee, composed of the
better class of citizens. They would
allow them to fight with their
fists, but when any person pulled
a gun they would take him to
gallows erected about 200 feet away
from the main street and hang
him.

IN URING THE past week
/ Montana's first printer, M
M. Manner, now resident OF
Lebanon, Indiana, has been visiting
the scenes of his first labors in
the "art preservative , in this state.
Mr.. Manner, now 70 years of age,
but still active and mentally alert,

retired from the profession. While
in Helena, en- route to Virginia City

Mr.. Manner anticipated finding
a number of the pioneers with

printer in that locality, he said:

of the log building would be open,
nothing to hide the half log bar or
gambling tables. Border life was
seen in all its original wildness.
American frontier civilization was
in all its freedom, no prison,no
Ijail to hold in awe the lawless ele-
ment.
Gold Dust The Only Money.
Everybody carried their gold
dust in buckskin bags and when
they paid for anything it was al
ways weighed. Six and one-half
cents was the smallest amount that
could be weighed. Everybody kept
their greenbacks, and spent the
gold dust, while in the states it
was the reverse as gold was worth
IS2 or more.
The counters in the stores were
logs sawed through the center, with
the flat side up, holes bored in1
the half log and stakes driven in
to hold it up.
Herds of Wild Game.
I'm those early days the journey
into the new country was very
eventful one. Large herds of buff
falo were frequently seen and elk.
black bear, prairie dogs and rattle
snakes abounded. While on the
way up the river the boat was
landed to take on for fuel trees
that had been cut down by beavers
and to bury man who had died of
smallpox. Two soldiers went out
perhaps half mile on the prairie
and shot the first buffalo killed
by our party and wounded another
that was preparing to attack us.
That day we saw great droves of
antelopes and white-tailed deer. I
shot and killed one. They would
stand, stamp their fore feet and
ook until they found out what you
we're. A shot at them and they
would be gone.
GAS we got further up the river a
We saw abundance of large game. $
The noise of the boat seemed to. F
attract their attention and draw :
hem to the river. A herd of buff !
'alo swimming up the river was
'un into by the boat Everybody /.
Who had a gun shot at them.
Fifty or hundred dead buffalo
