When morning came they found
that the light had been caused by a
very brilliant white stone, lie crys-
tai, but it was so firmly fixed in the
rock that they could not remove it
with their hands, and thinking it
some very great medicine, they did
not dare disengage it by force. So
they left it there, the Indian related,
and he had never gone back to look
at it.
Believing this wonderful brilliant
stone to be nothing less than a dia-
mond of untold value, the captain
resolved to make search for it, and
the Indian promised to guide him.
He accordingly started for Walla
Walla, which he reached in the fall
of 1859. In the spring of 1860, with
five others, he started for the Nez
Perces country, but the Indians

Sheriff Gordon, Superintendent
Nicholson of the Canadian provincial
police, and Reid drove to Havre from
Great Falls in binding snowstorm
and worked with pick and shovel
several hours before the cache was
found. The officers were on the
point of doubling Reds sincerity,
when he took the pick and himself
uncovered the cache. The bonds
were badly damaged, but the serial
numbers can be deciphered and the
securities are worth their face value
to the owners. The bonds could not
be negotiated by the bandits without
detection but their value was lost
to the owners while they were miss
ing.
A dispatch from Edmonton says:
The announcement as to the finding
of the Canadian bonds followed re-
turn of Assistant Commissioner Mich
olson of the police from trip south,
including points in the United States,
accompanied by Reid, to whom an in
ternational criminal reputation was
attributed.
Reid disclosed the hiding places in
Havre, where $128,000 of the bonds
were found, it is related, and in
Stanley park, Vancouver where $72,-
600 worth were recovered. Reid
is rs years old.
The bonds were taken from the I'm
ion bank at Foremost, Alta, and the
Royal bank, Ladner. The police
called the recovery of the bonds the
greatest coup in the seven years his
tory of the provincial force.

RECALLS DAYS WHEN WESTERN ARGOMAWTS
WE'RE FL0GK1MG TO MONTANA GOLD FIELDS

F" XCITING EVENTS which at
X. tended the rush of gold seek
- ers to the mines of Montana in
| 1863, and to Idaho some six years
| before, are to be re-enacted this
spring at Walla Walla, Wash, when
some 5000 residents of that com
munity will present their second pio-
neer pageant, "How the West Was
| Won"
Residents of the Walla Walla
country rightfully credit the pheno-
menal growth of their community
between 1859 and 1870 to the dis
coveries of gold in Montana and
Idaho, and in their pageant, which
historians of the district have writ
ten as a correct review of 70 years
of northwest epochal history, have
accorded this mining activity con-
siderable prominence.
DR.. S. B. L. Penrose, president of
Whitman college at Walla Walla, and
author of the pageant, has incorpor-
ated into scene depicting the build
ing of the old town, several incidents
relating to the mining rush. In one,
the heavily laden pack trains are
shown leaving for Montana, while in
others the miners arrive with their
precious gold bags, leaving them with

first bank in Washington, the present
Baker-Boyer National bank, still
standing on the same corner where
he greeted the Montana miners In
the pageant the part of Dr. Baker
is played by his grandson, d. Frank
Baker.
The discovery of gold in Montana
and the Idaho regions followed the
chance trip of Nez Perces Indian
into the California gold fields, where
he met Captain E. d. Pierce, an old

some time with u.s."
Two of the locators of Gallatin
City, w. J. Beall and d. E. Rouse,
abandoned the place within two years
of their arrival in the valley for what
proved a more favorable selection. It
was in the fore part of July, 1864,
while Beall and Rouse were return
ing from Virginia City, where they
had marketed their crops of potatoes
and other vegetables at 40 cents per
pound, that they met John M. Boze-
man, whom they had known in 1853
and who had returned east that fall.
BoZeman told them ~he was pilot
ing an immigrant train from the east
over what is now known as the Boze-
man cutoff. He advised them to
move up the valley and to take up
land and start town on the present
location of the city of Bozeman. He
also asked them to locate claim
for him.
During that same month Beall and
Rouse located adjoining claims or
farms on the site of the present city
of Bozeman and built the first two
houses there. They likewise staked
out claim for Bozeman on the south
side of what afterwards became Main
street. The houses built by Bell and
Rouse were of logs hauled from the

night.
But they did not sleep, the Indian
related, for when it had become quite
dark they saw a bright light, like
a cleaning beacon, burst out of the
rocky canyon wall, and they could
not take their eyes from it. They
thought it the eye of the Great Spirit
and were much afraid.

vice During Biennium Ending June
80, 1928, According to Report.

Montana owns 100000 acres of
forests, according to r. P. McLaugh-
lin, state forester, in a bulletin re-
Gently issued by his department. How
| they were secured, how they are man
aged, who are the beneficiaries, of
the proceeds of such property, what
value they have as state invest
ment, are questions with which the
public is not generally informed, ac-
cording to the state forester.
Attention must be called to a dis
tinction which must be made to avoid
confusing our state forests with the
national forests" says Mr.. McLaugh-
lin, "The state forests were COM
prised in those federal land grants
made to the state constitution, to be
held in trust for the people of Mon
tana, and consist, as the state consti-
tuition says, of lands which are prin-
cipally valuable for grazing and tim

Property of Citizens.
"Our state forests therefore are
the property of the people of Mon
tana, and benefits and receipts go
wholly to Montana's institutions. The
national forests are the property of
the people of the United States, the
receipts from which go to the United
States treasury. However, 35 per
cent of the national forest receipts
go to the state for it's schools and
roads. The organic act of the terri ;
tory of Montana passed by congress
and approved May 26, 1864, provided
that sections numbered 16 and SO
in each township shall be, and the
same are hereby reserved for pur-
poses of being applied to schools in
said territory of Montana. A large
of these sections of 16 and 36
occur in the 'forested region of the
state They are state property.
Gin addition to these the enabling
act gave large grants of land to the
agricultural college, state
normal school, school of mines, CAPT
toll buildings, state reform school,
deaf and dumb asylum, etc., and
many of these grants were upon for
est lands. They also belong to the
state.
Forest Crops For Sale
"While the forest lands are practi-
,ally not for sale, but are to be re-
aimed in state ownership, the forest
crops on these lands, however, are for

"That these state forests constitute
a trust estate, whose beneficiaries are
chiefly Montana schools, must never
be lost sight of. The proceeds from
this estate are obtained from the
sales of the timber crops. A per-
petuaI income from these sales of
timber requires that our state for
ests be managed to perpetuate the
production of timber crops. When
the timber crops fall, the income falls

II A fish hatchery will be built in the
Foothills southwest of Grangeville, it
has been definitely decided by the
state fish and game department, after
Investigation of sites for proposed
hatcheries. in central Idaho.
For several months, the department
has had under consideration locations
for a hatchery that will provide trout
fry for streams in central Idaho
counties, and finally, because of a
combination of advantages possessed
byl the GrangevilIe site, decided to
locate the hatchery here. Among the
advantages were temperature of the
water and available supply, nearness
to transportation, and the area to be
served by the hatchery.
