Death of Another Pioneer.

The death of Hon. H. H. Mood, Of
Madison county, is announced. He
died early last week at Los Angeles,
Calf, where he had been temporar-
lily residing for the last few months
in hopes of regaining his health, hav-
ing been a constant sufferer from
partial paralysis during the last two
or three years. Mr.. Mood was well
and ~favorably known to the residents
Of BOzeman, having been for many
years head miller for Meadow Broth
ers at their Touring mill in this city.
He came to Bannack in 1868, thence
to Alder Gulch, where he engaged in
mining and other profitable enter
prises. Subsequently he located al
Willow Greek, where he was quite
successful in farming and stockrais-
ing. He was twice elected to the
territorial legislature and served with
credit to himself and his constituents
He was a straightforward, honorable
man, a good citizen and highly re
spected by all who had the pleasure
Of his acquaintance. He was 6.
years of age in May last.

The Vanishing Vet
An Interesting Article by
DRAM PERRY,
Colonel seth Indiana Volunteers

The Civil War veteran is in a class
by himself; there none quite
like him before the war, and none
just like him since.
At the call Of wal he dropped ev-
erything he was doing and hurried to
camp; he did not know where he was
going, nor what he was to do; he
knew only that there was a fire some
where and that he was going into
the bucket line and help put it out.
He did not know whether anyone
was going to pay him or not, neither
did he care; the whole "blOCmm' "
thing was a lottery to him. Not
knowing whether he was going to
draw a blank or a prize, OF whether
he was to command or to- be COM
! manded, gave him no concern; his
single ambition was to do his level
best in whatever position he was
placed.
Fought By Boys
.-. There were of him a total of g.
778 1909. It is hard to conceive, but
il is virtually true that the war Of
the Rebellion was actually fought by
boys. Of the above total more than

ment were less than 81 years Of age.
Twenty-Five were less than 10 years

the constant presence Of danger had
made him a thoughtful, courageous,
s~elf-reliant man.
He was fully aware and justly
proud Of the sacrifices he had made
for the country; but he never sought
to commensurate them. All he asked
was a mans chance in a peaceful
country. So to make sure Of it and
to "cinch" the victory he had won,
he organized the Grand Army Of the
Republic, which is thus described by
a recent writer:

During the World war, the United
States put under arms about 4,OOO,-
600 men, one half of whom served
abroad, and to January q, 1919, the

and of disease-tOtaled 63,796.
Against this stands the death roll

for wounds or disease, who died at

War estimate the death roll of the

probably the most unique city in the
United States. It is principality
within itself. 1t is the product of the
brain of one man, r. II. L. Wilson.
It has a populatiOn:of about 1000, of
whom a majority are negroes. 1t is
clean, well kept and attractive, with
modern buildings, paved streets, pro-
gressive industries, splendid public in
stitutions and a prosperous and happy
population. The visitor, impressed
with all he sees, asks:
"Who owns those cottages?'
"AIr. Wilson"
"Who owns those fine modern resi-
dences?"
"Mr Wilson"
who owns all these stores?"

"Who owns the mills and factories?'
"NIr. Wilson"
"Who owns the bank and the filling
stationsY

"Who paved the streets and built the

In fact, inquiry develops that Mr..
Wilson actually owns in his own name
every building in the city with the ex-
ception of the railroad depot and the
Post Office and his name is on them.
And his ownership does not stop with
the city limits for he owns seven or
eight great plantations surrounding the
town, covering an area Of any where
from $4,000 to $4,000 acres Probably

knows just how much land he has.

Little Rock Letter

Little Rock, June THE Little
Rock Post Office is cooperating with
the Postal Department in its efforts
to teach the puplic to be more careful
in handling mail matter. Millions of
dollars are wasted every year through
carelessness. All this could be OBJ
waited by the exercise Of little more
care and common sense.
It is said that 210,000,000 pieces Of
letter mail and 100000 parcels were
delivered to the dead letter Office in
1924: 100000 letters were deposited in
the Post Office in blank envelopes ;
$4,000 in currency was reported to
have been removed from letters, be-
sides $4,000 in postage stamps and
S3,OOO,O00 in checks, drafts and money
orders; extra postage for mail i'm
properly stamped amounted to $4,000.
Every Post Office throughout the
country maintains a directory service
70 assist careless and ignorant persons
in delivery of their mail This SER
Vice costs the department $1,74O,OOO
annually; it costs $500 a day in the
city of New York alone. This service
handles total of 200,0O0,000 pieces Of
mail annually.
A few simple directions, if followed,
would avoid all of this trouble. Let
iers and parcels should be addressed
plainly with the street or Post Office
box, city and town of the addressee /;
the address of the sender should be
plainly written or printed in the upper

The railroads of the country are al
ready beginning to feel the effect of
bus competition, especially in short
line hauls. The large motor busses
costing $4,000 to $4,000 are being
rapidly installed every where and are
offering service on schedules of great
er frequency at fares that are often
much lower than the railroads offer.
The irony of the situation is seen in
the fact that the railroads are among
the heaviest taxpayers in the build
ing of parallel highways that provide
cut-throat competition. This doesn't
look quite fair on the face of it. Many
of the railroads are tightening up on
their schedules, and abandoning their
local trains between points that are
served by the buses. 1t appears that
the competition is not effective beyond
100 miles, or possibly $50 miles where
the highway conditions are most
favorable.
Gasoline transportation is the great
est traffic problem i'm America today.
Its effect may be seen any day in the
large cities in the empty street cars.
1t has forced many changes in street
car service. including the introduction
of the One-man cars. more frequent
trips and other improvements. There
have been instances. indeed, of street
railway franchises being surrendered
where taxi and bus service has taken
possession of the town. The Fort
Smith-Van Buren interurban line re-
ports deficit of about quarter of
million dollars in its operation last
year
The situation is complex one. The
, railroads have been the pioneer build
ers of America and have done more
than any other influence to open up
and develop new territory. There is
no record of any community that has
been built up and made prosperous
by taxi-cabs. There is pending now in
Arkansas controversy over the au-
thority for the regulation of motor bus
transportation. The Arkansas Rail
road Commission. which has undisput-
ed authority over the railroads, insists
that its authority should extend to the
motor bus companies, and that it
should have the power to fix schedules
and rates, Gasoline transportation is
an inevitable result of modern inven-
tive genius and must he reckoned with
The people have a right to demand the
most convenient form of service. But
! ii is unfair and not in accord with
the spirit of American fairness, to
permit competition without proper reg
ulation. The motor bus and taXi-cabs
have come to stay and are performing
an important function in our modern
living. but the railroads have right
to demand that they be protected
against unfair competition.
